MECOSTAT® 3/222

MECOSTAT-3/222 - Surface AntiStatic Agents are highly effective liquid coating materials for theantistatic finishing of plastic surfaces as well as for improving slip properties.The resistance to temperature of the coating guarantees that subsequent thermoforming can beperformed without suffering any damage. Furthermore, the antistatic finishing of the materialremains virtually unaffected by the stretching of the material during the thermoforming process

Processing Directions

the following processes are suitable for coating: immersion, felting, roller application, application by flexographic or gravure printing spray coating, rotor spraying coating (the; appropriate processes are dependent on the particular application purpose); coating quantity: depending on the application purpose 1.0 to 3.5 g per sqm (wet coating amount); the coated surface must be completely dry before further processing or winding the film (if required, drying with warm air); If MECOSTAT3/222 is applied on warm plastic surfaces, the surface temperature should not exceed 80 °C; MECOSTAT3/222 is delivered as a ready for use solution machine parts which come into contact with MECOSTAT3/222 should be made of corrosion proof materials (not of copper, aluminum or alloys of them); a combination of MECOSTAT3/222 with antistatic agents is not recommended because of possible reactions; depending on the particular application corona pretreatment is recommended (on polyolefines and polystyrene); due to the large number of applications and processing procedures we would like to point out that corresponding tests have to be performed by the customer to make sure that there will be no incompatibility with the raw materials, additives and the processing procedures
