MicroTouch 850XF

Chemical Family
Polyurethanes (PU)

MicroTouch 850XF is Highly resilient modified spherical polyurethane beads that can modify the tactile properties of formulated coatings and inks while improving burnish, scratch and mar resistance.\nFeatures and Benefits\nVirtually indestructible elastic particles that distort when disturbed by a physical force and then return to their original spherical shape when the force is removed.\nProvide different tactile effects ranging from satiny smooth to rubbery to leathery in properly formulated coatings.
