Storage and Handling

At temperatures up to 25 °C storage stability packed in original containers amounts to at least 730 days. Additives containing water may freeze or become inhomogenous at temperatures below 0 °C. Therefore such products ought to be stored frost-free. Lowest storage temperature: 5 °C

Processing Information

The optimum quantity of Additol VXW 6208 to be added for the production of pigment- and pigment/extender-pastes must be tested out. One should use such an amount of additive, calculated on pigment or pigment/extender, at which the lowest viscosity of the blend results.

Distinguishing Features

Additol VXW 6208 in comparison with the Additol grades XW 330, VXW 6200 and VXW 6205 is non-ionic. It can be used in all waterborne systems.

Special Properties and Uses

Additol VXW 6208 is a dispersing additive for organic and inorganic pigments and extenders. The binder-free pigment pastes are used in waterborne alkyd and acrylic paint formulations, e.g. gloss and silk finish emulsion paints. Additol VXW 6208 permits the production of emission-free paints.
