• Secondary drier used in combination with primary driers (manganese or vanadium compounds)
• Improves through-drying and film hardness
• Prevents wrinkling and orange peel on paint film surface
• Slightly increases dry time
• Improves pigment wetting and dispersion
• Increases gloss and color-fastness
• Reduces grind time when added to formulation at early stage
• Can be used in large amounts without discoloring film
• Solvent-based systems based on alkyds and epoxy esters that dry by oxidation
The addition rate of zinc, calculated on the metal content per solid binder, is approx. 0.03 – 0.50 %. The exact amount required depends on the binder and used formulation and should always be determined in preliminary trials. Octa-Soligen® Zinc can be introduced during the grinding step to improve pigment wetting.
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.
