Casamid™ 843W exhibits good gelation resistance and antiblocking characteristics. Alcohol dilutability is excellent with Casamid™ 843W being borderline between the alcohol reducible and alcohol soluble types. Casamid™ 843W has an extremely low odor making it suitable for inks and lacquers where odor is critical. Co-efficients of friction for lacquers made from this resin are typically 0.31 static; 0.295 dynamic.
