Application Details

WACKER® CATALYST EM 470 is compounded with Silicone Emulsion Crosslinkers and Dehesive® Emulsions. It is used to produce release liners for a variety of applications for paper and film based liners.

Processing

Before use, stir thoroughly.

  1. Prepare the water quantity in a clean container while stirring slowly.
  2. Add the Dehesive® polymer or polymer/crosslinker emulsion directly to the tank and mix at moderate shear.
  3. In a next step add the crosslinker emulsion and continue mixing moderatedly.
  4. Add the WACKER® CATALYST EM 470 in the last step and mix at moderate shear to achieve a homogeneous bath.
  5. Please take care of perfect homogenization while adding WACKER® CATALYST EM 470 . Avoid local concentration peaks and catalyst poisons.
