Additives for PVC Plastisols
For a better processing and quality of final PVC plastisol products, BYK supplies a variety of additives. These include wetting and dispersing additives for pigments and fillers, viscosity depressants, air release agents and defoamers, rheology modifiers to avoid sedimentation and pigment separation, moisture absorbers as well as foam stabilizers for mechanical foams and processing additives for calendering applications.
