When added during grinding, Octa-Soligen® Calcium driers also improve pigment wetting and dispersion. They help increase the hardness and gloss of the paint film. Octa-Soligen® Calcium driers are based on metal salts of 2-ethylhexanic acid (octoates) or their isomers. Supply form Octa-Soligen® driers are based on octoates or their isomers. We supply calcium octoates with different metal contents in different solvents that meet the specific requirements of various applications: Products Applications Octa-Soligen® Calcium 4, basic Conventional systems Octa-Soligen® Calcium 5, basic Conventional systems Octa-Soligen® Calcium 10, basic Conventional systems Octa-Soligen® Calcium 5, neutral Conventional systems Octa-Soligen® Calcium 5, special Conventional systems Octa-Soligen® VP 9611 (CA5HS) (Trial Product) Environmentally friendly systems containing no VOC or glycols Octa-Soligen® VP 9617 (CA4HS) (Trial Product) Environmentally friendly systems containing no VOC or glycols Octa-Soligen® VP 97101 (CA10HS) (Trial Product) Environmentally friendly systems containing no VOC or glycols Octa-Soligen® VP 96104 – Ca 10 Iso. (Trial Product) Odorless coatings Properties Calcium itself has no drying effect on binders that dry by oxidation. However, it yields synergistic effects in combination with primary driers such as cobalt and manganese and with secondary driers such as zirconium or lead. Calcium also promotes pigment wetting. When added during grinding, it prevents adsorption of the cobalt and lead driers at the surface of the pigments, thus stabilizing the drying power. The neutral supply forms improve film gloss. Applications Octa-Soligen® Calcium is used in solventborne systems based on alkyds and epoxy esters that dry by oxidation. Addition In our experience, the percentage addition of calcium, calculated on the metal content in the binder (solids), is approx. 0.03 – 0.3 %. The exact amount required depends on the binder used and should always be determined in preliminary trials Calcium is an auxiliary drier that is used solely in combination with primary and secondary driers. When added during grinding, improves pigment wetting and dispersion. Increases the hardness and gloss of the paint film. Calcium itself has no drying effect on binders which dry by oxidation. However, in combination with primary driers such as cobalt and manganese, it yields a significant synergistic effect. Like barium, it acts as a wetting agent and prevents the adsorption of cobalt and lead driers at the surfaces of pigments, which improves the drying stability. Calcium can also have a positive influence on the gloss. Can be used in solventborne systems based on alkyds and epoxy esters that dry by oxidation. Recommended usage level: 0.03 - 0.3 % calculated on the metal content per binder (solid).
