Hardening and Wear-Resistant Agent

Overview:

A silicone surface additive for solvent-based, solvent-free, and water-based systems. Suitable for coatings, inks, adhesives,

and room-temperature curing plastic systems, significantly reducing surface tension.

Typical Physical and Chemical Data

Chemical Composition: Polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane.

Density(20 °C): 1.04 g/ml

Recommended Dosage

0.05-0.3 % additive dosage (as supplied) based on the total formulation. For water-based and UV systems, it can be added up to

Application Areas

This additive is recommended for all solvent-based, solvent-free, and water-based coatings, printing inks, and varnishes. It is particularly recommended

for improving the wettability of polyurethane, epoxy, and acrylate adhesives on substrates, as well as the substrate wetting capability of

epoxy-based room-temperature curing plastics.

Addition Method and Processing Guidance

This additive can be added at any stage of production, including post-addition. In room-temperature curing systems, to reduce the foam-stabilizing effect of the additive,

it is recommended to add it during the final stage of manufacturing.

Features and Benefits

Coatings and Printing Inks

This additive significantly reduces the surface tension of coatings and printing inks, thereby improving substrate wetting and preventing cratering. At the same time,

it enhances surface slip and gloss. In water-based systems, it can improve anti-blocking properties.

Adhesives and Sealants

It is a highly efficient silicone surface additive. It significantly reduces surface tension, thereby enhancing the system's

surface wetting on challenging substrates.

Room-Temperature Curing Systems

It is a highly efficient silicone surface additive. It significantly reduces surface tension, thereby enhancing the system's

surface wetting on challenging substrates.

Special Notes

Unlike conventional silicone oils, this additive is "user-safe." However, before use, a series of tests should be conducted to confirm

whether the additive stabilizes foam. Additionally, its recoatability and cratering tendency should be evaluated.

Storage and Transportation

Separation or turbidity may occur at temperatures below 5 °C. Heat to 20 °C and mix thoroughly.
