ADDITOL® VXW 6208/60
ADDITOL® VXW 6208/60 is a polymeric non-ionic dispersing and wetting additive tailored for solvent-borne, solvent-free, and water-dilutable paint systems. This versatile additive contributes to improved gloss levels and stabilizes the achieved degree of gloss in the final coating. Notably, it exhibits the ability to reduce viscosity, which is particularly beneficial in high-filled paint systems. The product finds application in various formulations, including the production of binder-free pigment pastes and tinting base colors. In particular, ADDITOL® VXW 6208/60 serves as a wetting agent in solvent-free and solvent-borne two-pack epoxy systems, demonstrating its adaptability across different paint formulations.

- Storage and Handling
At temperatures up to 25 °C storage stability packed in original containers amounts to at least 730 days. Upon long term exposure to temperatures below 10 °C, Additol VXW 6208/60 may get cloudy and may show some crystallization. These effects are reversible and can be eliminated by warming up the product to 20 - 25 °C for several hours. After this treatment the product can be used without any restrictions.
- Processing Information
Additol VXW 6208/60 must always be ground with pigments and fillers.; The optimum quantity to be added for the production of binder-free pigment pastes calculated on pigment: 3 - 6 % inorganic pigments and fillers 30 - 35 % organic pigments; Recommended as dispersing solution is a mixture of Additol VXW 6208/60, propylene glycol and methoxy propanol in a ratio of 1 : 4 : 2.
- Distinguishing Features
Additol VXW 6208/60 in comparison with Additol VXW 6208 is dissolved in solvents, which are unlimited compatible with deionized water.
