Knowde Enhanced TDS

Identification & Functionality

Chemical Family: Polyethylene Waxes,
Polyolefins,
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Waxes,
Waxes
Technologies: CASE Ingredients
Product Families: CASE Ingredients — Additives
Surface Modifiers

Features & Benefits

Labeling Claims: Dust-free
CASE Ingredients Features: Abrasion Resistance,
Easy Handling,
Improved Slip,
Low Viscosity
Product Highlights: Deuteron® OG 330 noticeably improves slip, abra- sion and rub resistance in aqueous coatings and inks. Deuteron® OG 330’s low viscosity and its dust- free delivery form enable easy handling for paint manufacturing. The concentration of approx. 46 % supports cost-effectiveness.

Applications & Uses

Coating Type: Acrylic Coating,
Enamel,
Lacquers,
Top Coat,
Waterborne Coating
Ink & Toner Type: Waterborne Ink
Use Level: 1.0 - 3.0 %
Application and Dosage Information: Water-based clear lacquers and top coats where the presence of PTFE can be accepted, e.g. air drying and stoving enamels, aqueous acrylic lacquers and inks.

Dosage

A definite recommendation regarding the exact dosage cannot be made. The exact dosage should be determined by own trials. Experiences have shown that a dosage of 1.0 - 3.0 % will meet the required surface properties for slip and mecha- nical resistance.

Processing

Deuteron® OG 330 can be incorporated into the lacquer with a high speed stirrer before adjusting the viscosity. In most cases adding the product to the mill base will not result in problems. This can be taken into consideration for optimizing the production process.

Storage & Handling

Shelf Life: 24 months
Storage and Shelf Life Conditions: Deuteron® OG 330 can be stored in its original tightly closed containers for at least 24 months at room temperature.

Phase separation can occur during longer storing periods; stirring the product will remedy this. The product should be stored frost free.
