Technical Details & Test Data
- Compatibility
Teraflow® 5341 is a polyether modified dimethyl polysiloxane copolymer surfactant that helps to lower the surface tension of solvent-based and water-reducible coatings to promote wetting of the substrate. As with any dimethyl polysiloxane additive, the formulator should its effect on intercoat adhesion and recoatabililty of the film.
