[QA] BENTONE® LT additive is an organically modified powdered clay additive designed for water borne systems, primarily latex paints.

ADDITOL XL 109 prevents surface defects in oxidatively drying paints, like icing, wrinkling, shrinkage. Enhances through-drying, levelling and hardness. For paints on oil and alkyd resins. ADDITOL XL 109 is a specific antioxidizing agent for oxidizing paint systems and inhibits or retards the crosslinking reactions initiated by air oxygen in the surface of paint films. Thus ADDITOL XL 109 acts as antiskinning agent and impairs too quick drying of the surface. The paint films remain liquid for longer times and oxygen can contact the deeper layers of the films. Through drying is enhanced and becomes uniform over the whole layer of the film.Surface defects usually due to inuniform drying, like icing, wrinkling and shrinkage can be prevented. At the same time, gloss, levelling, and film hardness are enhanced.ADDITOL XL 109 remains active in the paint on prolonged storage in closed containers. Crystallization eventually occurring on storage at lower temperatures can be dissolved by gentle heating. We recommend to jointly use ADDITOL XL 109 and ADDITOL XL 297. Both additives are supplementary in effect giving superior performance in respect of antiskinning, drying and gloss.

Luna-pal KY-A81-C (Benzene Free) is a polyaldehyde resin for pigment dispersions, or to optimize pigment dispersion in inks and coatings. It shows excellent compatibility with many coating/printing raw materials. It is soluble in most organic solvents and has very good wetting and dispersion properties. It is a multifunctional additive used also to improve the adhesion, gloss, hardness, and solid content. It can also be used in universal pigment pastes.Softening point: 90-100°C.

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.
