- Application Information
SMC, BMC, Pultrusion
Special Features and Benefits
Universal and cost-effective wetting and dispersing additive for virtually all closed mold applications. Very effective in highly ATH-filled systems. The product can be combined with BYK-W 9010 (1:1) if high additive quantities are required.Recommended Levels
1-2% additive (as supplied) based upon fillers for wetting and dispersion.
0.5-2% additive (as supplied) based upon the resin for stabilizing the viscosity in BMC.
The above recommended levels can be used for orientation. Optimal levels are determined through a series of laboratory tests.
Incorporation and Processing Instructions
BYK-W 996 should be added to the resin mixture prior to homogenization and the addition of the fillers.Adhesives & Sealants
Special Features and Benefits
Universal and cost-effective wetting and dispersing additive for adhesive and sealant applications. Very effective in highly ATH-filled systems. The additive improves the wetting and dispersion of mineral fillers. This achieves a lower viscosity and enables higher filler loading.The product can be combined with BYK-W 9010 (1:1) if high additive quantities are required.
Recommended Use
The additive is particularly recommended for adhesives based on epoxy resins.
Recommended Levels
1-2% additive (as supplied) based on the filler.
The above recommended levels can be used for orientation. Optimal levels are determined through a series of laboratory tests.
Incorporation and Processing Instructions
For optimum performance, the additive should be added before the solids.
