Coatings and Printing Inks
Special Features and Benefits
The additive produces a significant decrease in the surface tension of aqueous systems and therefore particularly improves substrate wetting and leveling. It only marginally, if at all, stabilizes foam and the recoatability is not impaired.The additive does not increase the surface slip. If a greater surface slip is required, we recommend that it is combined with a polysiloxane such as BYK-333.
Recommended Use : The additive is especially recommended for all aqueous coatings, printing inks and overprint varnishes, particularly also for formulations which do not contain co-solvents.
Recommended Levels
0.05-0.5% additive (as supplied) based upon total formulation. The above recommended levels can be used for orientation. Optimal dosage levels are determined through a series of laboratory tests.
Incorporation and Processing Instructions : It is preferable to add the additive to the finished formulation. However, it can be used at any stage during manufacture.Adhesives
Special Features and Benefits
The additive produces a significant decrease in the surface tension of aqueous adhesives and therefore improves substrate wetting. It only marginally, if at all, stabilizes foam. The additive does not increase the surface slip. It is particularly suitable for adhesive systems that do not contain co-solvents.

Polyether-modified siloxane
- Special Note
The additive is also suitable for systems that do not contain organic co-solvents. If the system contains increased quantities of co-solvents, the silicone surfactant will not be as effective. In such formulations, we recommend the use of a polysiloxane, e.g. BYK-333.
