21% Cobalt Hydroxy Ten-Cem^®

Physical Characteristics

Features

• Sacrificial drier in paste forms
• Countervails loss of drier action as a result of drier absorption during prolonged storage
• Takes effect in a controlled manner in step with the decomposition of the drier
• Does not affect initial drying of the paint system
• Has no adverse effect on the film properties of the paint

Applications

• Oxidative solvent-based systems
• Some water-reducible systems
• Aqueous systems only when the system contains an appropriate co-solvent

Dosage

21% Cobalt Hydroxy Ten-Cem^® is added to the milling base with pigment and binder. Subsequent addition is also possible. The addition of 21% Cobalt Hydroxy Ten-Cem^® ranges between 0.3 and 0.7%, relative to the solid binder. The optimum amount must always be determined individually beforehand in trials.

Storage

Protect from the effects of weathering and store at temperatures below 50 °C. Once opened, containers should be resealed immediately after each removal of the product. During storage an increase in paste viscosity could be observed. The product should be stirred before using.
