SCHWEGO® mar 8304

Slip additive for solvent-borne coating systems

 

Chemical base:   Silicone polymer with organic solvents
     
Properties:   The addition of SCHWEGO mar 8304 to solvent based coating systems improves resistance against scratch, mar and blocking. SCHWEGO mar 8304 also improves slip, therefore smooth surface is formed and hence also film hardness is increased. Further compatibility is increased. The tendency to foaming and to dirt retention is reduced and gloss is preserved. SCHWEGO mar 8304 improves as a secondary effect wetting and levelling.
     
FDA-approval:   The compounds of SCHWEGO mar 8304 are listed in FDA (U.S. Food & Drug Administration), title 21, Code of Federal Regulation (CFR). Details are visible in our Regulatory Information Sheet.
     
Applications:   SCHWEGO mar 8304 is suitable for solvent based systems as:
  • air drying alkyds
  • alkyd/melamine combinations
  • self crosslinking and co-reacting polyacrylates
  • polyurethanes
  • nitrocellulose
  • acid curing melamine and urea systems
  • oil-free polyesters
     
Technical data:
(Guide values)
  Appearance : colourless clear liquid
Density (ISO 2811-1) : 0,95 g/cm³
Flash point (ISO 1523) : 48 °C
Non volatile content (ISO 3251) : 48%
     
Processing:   The addition amount of SCHWEGO mar 8304 is 0.02 - 0.30 % calculated on total formulation. SCHWEGO mar 8304 should be added at the beginning of the production. Post addition is possible, if SCHWEGO mar 8304 is homogeneously distributed. Due to low dosage prelution in one of the solvents of the formulation is recommended. SCHWEGO mar 8304 in comparison to SCHWEGO mar 8300 provides a higher compatibility, e.g. in clear coat formulations with OH-crosslinkable acrylates.
     
Storage:   Stir SCHWEGO mar 8304 up befor use. Keep it in a cool, well-ventilated place. Subject to appropriate storage, the described properties of SCHWEGO mar 8304 remain stable for at least 2 years, provided the original container is closed after use.
     
Packaging:   50/175 kg drum
