- CASE Ingredients Features
- High Popping LimitImproved Degassing
ADDITOL® VXW 4926 is a silicone-free antifoaming additive specially formulated for water-dilutable paints. Its key attributes include rapid defoaming or air release, facilitating the application of high film thickness in stoving paints without causing cissing. This versatile additive is well-suited for combinations of dispersions with water-dilutable synthetic resins. Notably, ADDITOL® VXW 4926 aligns with environmentally conscious practices, being labeled as APEO-free, VOC-free, and bio-based. This makes it a preferred choice for formulators seeking sustainable and eco-friendly solutions in waterborne coatings.

- Suggested Uses
Additol VXW 4926 is a surface active additive for water dilutable paints. Particularly with spray application cissing on curing of the paint is prevented or may appear only with higher film thickness.. Since Additol VXW 4926 is not dilutable with water, it should be incorporated with great care. The dosed range is between 2 % and 15 % for 100 % binder solids. The optimum quantity should be determined in individual tests.
- Application Methods
- Spray
- Special Properties
Rapid defoaming or air release. Allows high film thickness of stoving paints, without cissing. Also suited for combinations of dispersions with water dilutable synthetic resins.

- Storage and Handling
At temperatures up to 25 °C storage stability packed in original containers amounts to at least 730 days. At temperatures below 15 °C turbidity appears, at very low temperatures the product thickens. Therefore Additol VXW 4926 should be stored at temperatures above 15 °C. After storing for 24 hours at room temperature the turbid material liquefies again, a clear solution results, the properties are not injured by this process.
- Processing Information
Since Additol VXW 4926 is not dilutable with water, it must be incorporated with great care. For testing the optimum dosage, it may be admixed to the finished paint. However an incorporation together with the pigments and extenders should be aimed at.
