Applications

Used in conjunction with WetGrip EU Crosslinker to formulate high adhesion, European Union-compliant alkoxy -cure silicone coatings and sealants. Compatible with a broad range of resins and fillers

Processing Guidelines

WetGrip ET Additive should be added as the last ingredient in the formulation at 7-10% by weight of polymer or 3-5% by total formula weight.; ET Additive is extremely reactive and will cause a temporary and significant rise in viscosity in the batch as it is being added. Care should be taken to make sure mixing equipment is capable.; Extremely Moisture sensitive material, keep stored in sealed containers and practice good handling procedures for silanes.
