Lower
Usage Levels Allow for Fewer Processing Issues
When working with wood,
metal and plastic products, the need to reapply coatings throughout the product
lifecycle is a continuous challenge. Dow Corning 55N makes an
ideal additive for applications where recoating is necessary or desirable. The
reactive silicone glycol surfactant, with carbinol functionality, is supplied
at 10% actives in propylene glycol methyl ether acetate and can be used as a
slip, leveling and abrasion resistant additive in solvent borne, waterborne and
UV-cure coatings.
| Dow Corning 55N Additive improved
anti-cratering, slip properties and intercoat adhesions in a two-component
polyurethane coating used for metal, wood and plastic coatings. |
