Recommended Usage
  • CoatOSil additives are excellent candidates to consider for use in coatings for wood, plastic, glass and oily metal, either by spray or by high-speed roll applications. They can provide shelf-stable, nonyellowing performance and improved scrub resistance in acrylic latex paints and improved gloss and clarity (DOI) of topcoats.
  • Effective super-wetting properties make certain CoatOSil additive grades outstanding candidates to consider for coating and ink formulations and packaging overprint varnishes.
  • As a silane-based pretreatment, they can help foster extended long-term performance of painted metals via improved anti-corrosive properties to galvanized steel and aluminum alloys.
  • CoatOSil additives are reactive 100% slip agents, these grades can help drive improved abrasion resistance in UV-cured acrylated resins.
