The 7306 Wetting Levelling Agent is a high-performance, polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane copolymer designed to optimize surface dynamics in advanced coating systems. Engineered for high-spee…
Superior Wetting: Dramatically lowers surface tension to ensure complete coverage on contaminated or low-energy substrates.
Enhanced Surface Slip: Improves scratch and mar resistance by providing a low-friction surface finish.
Anti-Crater Performance: Effectively prevents defects like fish-eyes and craters caused by airborne contaminants or substrate impurities.
Optimal Leveling: Promotes uniform flow and suppresses orange peel, resulting in high-gloss, mirror-like appearances.
Broad Compatibility: Highly compatible with acrylic, polyurethane, epoxy, and polyester resins in both water and solvent systems.
Inter-coat Adhesion: Designed to minimize recoatability issues, maintaining strong adhesion between multiple coating layers.
规格
技术亮点
Chemical Identity: Polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane copolymer (Commonly associated with CAS No: 134180-76-0), ensuring long-term stability across temperature ranges.
Active Content: 100% active matter concentration, allowing for extremely low use levels (0.1% to 1.0%).
Solubility Profile: Readily soluble in alcohols, esters, ketones, and aromatic hydrocarbons; dispersible in aqueous environments.
Surface Dynamics: Specifically engineered to reduce static and dynamic surface tension to approximately 22–24 mN/m.
Thermal Stability: Maintains functional integrity during high-temperature baking processes up to 200°C.
Refractive Index: Optimized to ensure no haze or loss of clarity in clear-coat applications.
