Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Coating Type
- Ink & Toner Type
- Use Level
- 0.5-5.0%
- Applications
It can be used in all types of furniture and wood lacquers, in metal decorating and coil applications. The use of Deuteron-WAX MPO also leads to excellent results in powder coatings.
- Dosage
0,5 - 5,0 % (calculated on the complete formulation) depending on binder, application and required properties.
- Processing
Because of its excellent dispersing properties Deuteron-WAX MPO can be incorporated into the liquid phase with a simple stirrer. If Deuteron-WAX MPO has to be used in waterbased systems, the wetting properties are unsatisfactory because of its hydrophobic character. We suggest to prepare a premix of DeuteronWAX MPO with a suitable wetting agent or glycol.
