Application Information

Powder Coatings
Special Features and Benefits

The additive reduces the gloss level and causes an anti-slip effect if higher dosages are used. The adhesion of sealers is improved as well as the protective effect of coatings against moisture.
Recommended Use
Ceraflour® 970 is recommended for powder coatings based on polyester/TGIC/primid/powder link, polyester/epoxy, acrylate, polyurethane and epoxy.
Recommended Levels
0.5-4% 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
Ceraflour® 970 should be mixed with resin, hardener, pigments and other additives using a high-speed mixer and extruded along with all components.

 

Liquid Coatings
Special Features and Benefits

The additive reduces the degree of gloss and causes an anti-slip effect in all solvent-borne coating systems.
Recommended Levels
0.5-5% 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 additive is preferably incorporated into the coating at the end of the production process at a moderate shear rate.
