Processing and Performance

As a particularly long-oil and low viscous alkyd resins, Synthalat SF 690 is used primarily for
high-grade decorative paints. The composition of the fatty acid components has been
adjusted to give optimum drying characteristics, brushability and color fastness.
For drying, we recommend the use of dryer combinations (Co, Zr, Ba), e.g.
Octa-Soligen 173.
