High-performance accelerator to enhance the drying performance of Borchers® Deca Manganese 8 in solvent-based and high solids alkyd resins

 

 

  • Physical Characteristics

    Appearance Clear, colorless to orange liquid
    Viscosity Max. 50 mPa·s (informative) ISO 3219 (A) (20 °C)
    Density 0.85 – 0.89 g/cm3  (20 °C) DIN 51757

  • Features

    Maximizes the performance of Borchers® Deca Manganese 8 and enables:

    • Faster drying times
    • Fast drying in adverse ambient conditions down to 40°F (4.4 °C)
    • Less yellowing and brighter whites when compared to cobalt driers
    • Wrinkle-free appearance when utilized with thick film applications

  • Applications

    • Coatings
      • Wood
      • Industrial
      • Protective and Marine
      • Architectural
      • Automotive

  • Dosage

    All resin systems are unique and will require dosage optimization for the best cost and dry performance. We recommend using a ladder study with Borchi® Phoenix. The typical usage level is 0.01 – 0.05 % manganese metal, based on binder solids. Borchi® Phoenix should be used at a ratio of 10:1 by weight of Borchi® Phoenix to Borchers® Deca Manganese 8. Borchi® Phoenix should be added before Borchers® Deca Manganese 8 as one of the last components before the anti-skinning agent.

  • Storage

    Protect from the effects of weathering and store at temperatures between 5 and 30 °C. Color of product varies on storage.

  • Safety
