Processing and Performance

Lioptal TH 406 has particularly good compatibility with aliphatic hydrocarbons. Primers based on Lioptal TH 406 have good adhesion to iron and light metals with the choice of pigments being particularly important. Basic pigments can be incorporated in limited amounts. For stabilization we recommend addition of small amounts of higher alcohols and/or glycol ethers. For drying mixed driers based on cobalt/barium/zirconium have given good results. Depending on the properties required, the following amounts are recommended: 0.02 – 0.04% cobalt-, 0.15 – 0.2% zirconium-, and 0.06-0.1% barium-metal. In combination with unplasticised urea or melamine resins Lioptal TH 406 is also suitable for the manufacture of stove-drying industrial coatings and primers. However, the compatibility must be checked, as not all aminoplastics are compatible with larger amounts of aliphatic solvents.
