As a flow- and pumpable paste ADDITOL XL 280 prevents settling and improves wetting of pigments in solvent- and waterborne paints systems. ADDITOL XL 280 improves paint stability. ADDITOL XL 280 is a highly effective additive for all industrial finishes. The easy handling of this material, owing to its favourable rheological properties, saves material and manufacture costs and simplifies the dosage. Difficult dispersible pigments and extenders are more easily and rapidly wetted and stabilized by the action of ADDITOL XL 280. The rheological properties of the coating are favourably affected leading to less tendency to run-off on vertical surfaces and improving edge coverage in dip coating.

LICOWAX E FLAKES is an ester of montanic acids with multifunctional alcohols. The montanic acids contained in raw montan wax are straightchain, unbranched monocarboxylic acids with a chain length in the range of C28-C32. As a result of the long chain these montanic acids have a high thermostability and a low volatility as well as a low tendency to migration. LICOWAX E FLAKES is used as lubricant and dispersing agent in a wide variety of polymers like PVC, PS, PBT, PA, PDM, PC, TPU.

LICOWAX OP FL is a partly saponified ester wax of montanic acids used for a wide variety of polymers as multifunctional lubricant and dispersing agent. It is suitable for PVC, engineering resins, thermosets etc. In addition, it is used in solvent-based polish applications, thanks to its excellent paste-forming and solvent-binding capacity.
