Ceraflour® 964

Powder Coatings

Special Features and Benefits
Ceraflour® 964 ensures improved degassing of powder coatings (primarily HAA systems) with no negative impact on gloss (non-blooming). The additive does not migrate to the surface and will not affect optical properties. Due to its low melting point, Ceraflour® 964 should be used in systems that cure at lower temperatures. Due to the low melting point and the strong degassing properties the recommended maximum curing temperature is 180 °C.
Recommended Use
Ceraflour® 964 can be used in all powder coating systems but is particularly recommended for polyester-HAA systems. The additive is very suitable for high gloss powder coatings and is especially advised for darker colors in situations where a surface film would cause clearly visible defects. It is particularly recommended for low-temperature systems (LT systems) because of its low melting point.

Recommended Levels
0.5 - 2.0% additive (as supplied) based on the total formulation.
The above recommended levels can be used for orientation. Optimal levels are determined through a series of laboratory tests.
Incorporation and Processing Instructions
The product should be mixed with the resin, hardener, pigments and other additives using a high speed mixer and extruded along with all components.

Micronized amide wax

• Temperature sensitive. To be stored and transported at a temperature below 30 °C.
• Do not exceed a maximum curing temperature of 180 °C.
