DOWSIL™ 100F Additive
DOWSIL™ 100F Additive is a foam control agent in solvent-based and radiation curable coatings. It gives efficient foam control at very low silicone addition levels, even in high solids coatings formulations. It shows good compatibility in solventborne and radiation curable coatings and has a low tendency to cause craters or impact gloss or clarity of the coating. Due to the low addition levels required, it does not cause issues with recoatability.
DOWSIL™ 107F Additive
DOWSIL™ 107F Additive is a low-cyclic silicone foam control agent with high effectiveness in waterborne acrylic clear wood coating varnishes, and acrylic, styrene acrylic and VAE emulsion paint for architectural wall coatings. It reduces defects and microbubbles in the coating film, thereby enhancing the durability of the substrate protection provided by the coating. It also has an excellent environmental and health profile which makes it suitable for the formulation of EU Ecolabel compliant indoor and outdoor paints and varnishes following the criteria set out in decision 2014/312/EU.
DOWSIL™ 108F Additive
DOWSIL™ 108F Additive is a versatile antifoam active on the reduction of foam generated during the manufacture and application of water based paints, coatings and inks. It works in major types of water based resins like acrylics, vinyl acetate/ethylene (VAE dispersions), polyurethane dispersions, and alkyd emulsions. This antifoam additive is particularly recommended for premium low PVC coatings, to provide a good density control of the coating formulation while maintaining a good appearance of the final surface.
DOWSIL™ 11 Additive
DOWSIL™ 11 Additive is a silicone additive provides slip, mar resistance and leveling in solvent-based applications. It can also correct glossing, pinholing and fisheyes, and reduced foaming during production. This product is suitable for inks, coatings, and paints.
