Features & Benefits

Properties
  • Lengthens the pot life.
  • Slightly retards curing of the coatings.
  • Has good adhesion to mineral substrates as a result of silicification.
  • The paints and plasters applied have a long life.
  • The coatings applied do not give rise to blistering, because there is no film formation.
  • The thermal expansion of the paints and plasters is of the same order as that of mineral substrates.
  • The paints and plasters are durable even on exposure to climatic extremes.
  • The paints and plasters are resistant to outdoor exposure, inhibit corrosion, and are lightfast and dirt-repellent
  • The paints and plasters have a natural mineral appearance.

Applications & Uses

Mode of Action

Betolin K 35 bonds mineral substrates by silicification and cohesive bonding to substrate components.

Applications

Betolin K 35 is suitable for silicate and emulsion silicate paints (cf. DIN 18363, paras. 2.4.1 and 3.2) and plasters.

Note

Drums containing Betolin K 35 must always be kept tightly closed. Adjacent areas of glass, ceramic, concrete, metal, and natural stone must be well masked before the paints are applied. Any splashes must be removed immediately with water. The tools must be cleaned with water immediately after use. The addition of some Trilon B and caustic soda effects better clean-up.
