Octa-Soligen® 758 14
Based on a synthetic acid, Octa-Soligen® 758 is a modified metal soap dissolved in a mixture of hydrocarbons.
Description
Octa-Soligen® 758 has the following properties:
- it improves the through-drying of coatings that dry by oxidation, especially at low temperatures and at high atmospheric humidity,
- it stabilizes the drying power,
- it improves pigment wetting,
- it reduces pigment flocculation,
- it reduces drier adsorption,
- it reduces pigment sedimentation,
- it promotes sag resistance.
Applications
In alkyds, combination of Octa-Soligen® 758 with cobalt and possibly zirconium is recommended.
Mixing and Addition Rate
The addition of Octa-Soligen® 758 is between 1.5 and 2 %, calculated on the total formulation. This amount will not reduce the gloss of the paint film. Additions larger than 3 % will reduce the gloss of formulations based on short-oil and medium-oil alkyds but not of those based on long-oil alkyds.
It is best to incorporate Octa-Soligen® 758 during grinding although it can be added at any later stage of the formulation process.
Storage
The product should be stored at a temperature of 5 to 30 °C and protected from the weather. Containers should be resealed immediately each time product is removed. If these recommendations are followed, it will be possible to process the product without problems for at least six months from the date of delivery.
