  • Accelerates the chemical reaction between the alcohol and isocyanate component of polyurethane coating systems, thus allowing optimum steering of the drying properties
  • Ensures fast blocking stability
  • Higher film hardness
  • Earlier sanding of the coating

Applications

  • One- and two-component polyurethane clearcoats and pigmented coating systems
    • Automotive Refinish
    • General Industrial
    • Coil

Dosage

Our experience has shown the recommended addition rate of Borchi® Kat 21 to be between 0.01 and 0.12 % product, calculated on total solid binder. The exact amount depends on the used resin and should be determined by means of preliminary trials. Borchi® Kat 21 can be added either in the supply form or diluted in any suitable solvent (e.g., butyl acetate) to the polyol component of the coating system. Borchi® Kat 21 should not be diluted below 10 % of the supply form, since those solutions are only stable for a limited period of time.

Storage

Protect from the effects of weathering and store at temperatures between 5 and 30 °C. Once opened, containers should be resealed immediately after each removal of the product.
