- Addition and Dosage
The optimal amount of PAT-ADD AF 76 to be used is system related, but generally is between 0.2 and 0.5 % PAT-ADD AF 76, calculated on the total weight of formulation. Appropiate incorporation conditions have to be provided; prefered is premixing Pat-Add AF 76 with the resin, before other components. Suitability and optimum concentration to be used depends on the individual requirements and conditions and is best checked experimentally
