Which additive can be used to prevent leveling and wetting issues in a waterbased floor coating formulation? While a waterbased formulation is drying local differences in the surface tension arise within the liquid film. This can cause a poor leveling or other surface…
I am looking for a polymer defoamer which does not need high sheer force. It has to be VOC-free. BYK-1710 is a polymer defoamer with hydrophobic particles. The defoaming properties are spontaneous and excellent. The additive is VOC-free (
I am looking for a high purity aluminum silicate product for monolithic refractories. It should have good binding… BENTOLITE-L3 and BENTOLITE L10 are high purity aluminum silicates. Their high purity makes them very suitable for various monolithic refractory applications.…
We are looking for a VOC- and APEO-free mineral oil defoamer for aqueous architectural coatings application of emulsion paints and plasters within a PVC range of 30-85. BYK-1630 contains small quantities of a coating-compatible silicone, is APEO-free with…
Sometimes I face wetting issues of my H2O base coat. How can I insure a sufficient wetting also of critical substrates. The use of silicone surfactant like BYK-349 , BYK-345 or BYK-347 insures a good substrate wetting. In cases of very low energetic surfaces you can try also…
We receive more and more requests to formulate pigmented solvent-free radiation-curing coatings but are facing… transparency, and gloss. Their broad compatibility makes either product applicable to a variety of different commonly used oligomers and monomers. The…
I need to improve surface and flow properties of my 3K PU cementitious self levelling system. My currently used liquid… binder system. Unfortunately a more compatible defoamer does not reduce the amount of air content sufficiently which contributes to a reduction of flow. We…
We are using silicone additives in the hydro topcoat, but after repairing we observe a worse leveling. The worse levelling is caused by the low surface energy of the cured topcoat. The use of the silicone and poly ehter modified Acrylate BYK-3565 will provide you…
I am currently encountering a big challenge to disperse titanium dioxides for different solvent-free radiation-curing… DISPERBYK-111 is a solvent-free wetting and dispersing additive which is perfectly tailored to disperse titanium doxides. Excellent viscosity reduction, highest
Which defoamer additive can be used to destroy foam bubbles in a 1-pack waterbased polyurethane floor coating… be based on (modified) polysiloxanes, silicon-free polymers or a combination of both. BYK-1786 is a defoamer based on an silicone emulsion, which helps to…
Which defoamer additive can be used to avoid foam bubbles in a filled waterbased epoxy floor coating formulation,… BYK-1630 is a mineral oil defoamer which can improve the defoaming properties of a filled waterbased epoxy self-leveling formulation tremendously. The defoamer…
