- Processing
- Generally, the use of 0,1-0,3% ULTRAMER NS 485 over the weight of paint is recommended. This rate should increase up to 1% depending on the application areas and process conditions. For this reason, preliminary trials should be done before the application. It is also recommended to add half of the ULTRAMER NS 485 to the system before the dispersion, then adding the remaining part during the dilution stage of the process. Thus, the maximum antifoam properties should be obtained.
- ULTRAMER NS 485 should be added to a system at the final stage, during the production process of water based textile and leather auxiliary materials. It should be directly dosaged to the system during the production of textile and leather wet applications. The application amount could chance according to the type of the process and the product. In order to find optimum usage amounts and compatibility of the product with other chemicals, preliminary trials should be performed before the application.

Storage & Handling
- Storage/Shelf Life
- ULTRAMER NS 485 has a shelf life up to 6 months if stored in tightly closed original containers between 5-35°C. If the material is kept beyond the shelf life recommended, it is not necessarily unusable, but quality control should be performed on the properties relevant to the application. The containers must be protected against sunlight and frost.
