SETAL A F 26 X is in the formulation of primers, knifing fillers, primer surfacers, top coats and dipping paints and flow coatings for radiators. Coatings based on SETAL A F 26 X are characterised by their very rapid drying and curing, high resistance to yellowing, weather stability and good anticorrosion properties. The use of alkaline pigments such as zinc phosphate, zinc oxide and aluminium triphosphate make it possible to optimize the anticorrosion properties of primers based on SETAL A F 26 X. Knifing fillers and primer surfacers applied in thickness of up to 200 μm can be dry-sanded within 1 hour. Combination with aminoplastic resins is recommended when formulating force-drying coatings.

SETAL A U 601 HV TBA is in the formulation of fast-drying hard-wearing wood finishes and DIY and decorative sealers. General SETAL A U 601 HV TBA is an isocyanate-modified alkyd resin with a high crosslinking density. The paint films are characterised by their good performance properties such as hardness and flexibility. They are therefore highly resistant to wear and abrasion. They also have good resistance towater and household cleaning agents. The use of the following driers is recommended: 0.03 % cobalt 6, 0.60 % zirconium 18 and 0.10 % calcium 4. The metal content is always calculated on the solvent-free resin.Methylethyl ketoximen has proved ideal as an anti-skinning agent for these formulations. The amount required is 1.0 %, calculated on the solvent-free binder. Wood finishes: typical applications for SETAL A U 601 HV TBA include the formulation of coatings for indoor use, e.g. for doors and window frames and for parquet flooring. It can also be used in coatings for garden furniture, boats and other such substrates. Coatings based on SETAL A U 601 HV TBA can be matted easily with small amounts of matting agent. Combination of SETAL A U 601 HV TBA with SETAL A F 681 yields highbodied gloss coatings. The brushability, especially of DIY paints, can be optimised by the addition of small amounts of SETAL A U 601 TIX TBA (approx. 5 - 10%, calculated on SETAL A U 601 HV TBA). Coatings based on SETAL A U 601 HV TBA dry to formdefectfree films on most tropical woods so no special impregnation is necessary beforehand. However, given the many different types of tropical woods and their very different properties and constituents, trials should always be carried out. Important - Depending on their viscosity, coatings based on SETAL A U 601 HV TBA can be applied by brushing, rolling or spraying. Sprayingmust be carried out inwaterrinsed spray booths. Spray mists must be regularly removed to prevent ignition.

VIACRYL SC 121/60X is a sole binder for road-marking paints. Fast drying primers and top coats for nonferrous metal and plastic substrates.It is used as road-marking paints Viacryl SC 121/60LG was especially developed as sole binder for road-marking paints. Road-marking paints based on this copolymer have excellent adhesion and abrasion resistance, permanent flexibility as well as good whiteness retention. It is, however, recommended to first conduct a trial application under the given conditions to ensure suitability. Coating of plastics One-coat paints based on Viacryl SC 121 show especially good adhesion to plastics such as PVC, acrylic sheet, polycarbonate and polyester reinforced components.Primers and top-coats on metallic substrates. In view of its fast initial and through drying as well as its good water resistance Viacryl SC 121 is suitable for formulation one-coat paints and industrial primers. Coatings based on this product show good adhesion to steel, aluminium and zinc. For aluminium substrates a binder pigment ratio of about 1 : 2 should be selected. For steel a ratio of 1 : 1.5 is recommended. Decorative finishes are generally pigmented in ratios of 1 : 1 (binder/pigment) on solids.

Automotive finishes, in particular for metallics, especially for metallic basecoats (wet-on-wet process). Stoving enamels with good outdoor stability and colour retention, for general industrial purposes. Viacryl SC 303/65XB is used in combination with melamine and urea resins for the formulation of stoving enamels. The principal application area is automotive finishes, in particular metallics and clear coats for two-coat metallic systems, in combination with cellulose acetobutyrate for basecoats in two-coat metallics, but also industrial applications such as electric night storage heaters, fluorescent lamps, household appliances, boilers and drying boxes. In addition to their good adhesion, gloss, hardness, flexibility and corrosion resistance, paint films based on Viacryl SC 303 have very good stability to heat and to UV radiation. This is impressively evident in the case of top coats in two-coat metallic paints which, after prolonged outdoor exposure in Florida, show neither discolouration, cracking nor gloss impairment.
