The innovative cost effective Omyamatt grades also have lower oil absorption, higher brightness and improved hiding power making them superior alternatives to traditional matting agents. Compared to coarse GCC, Omyamatt has the capability to achieve significant ad- vantages in matting efficiency, especially in mid to high PVC formulations.
