ÈÜ¼Á >> Ì¼Çâ»¯ºÏÎï, ·¼Ïã×å Solvent >> Hydrocarbon, Aromatic ½¨Öþ/×°ÊÎ Architectural / Decorative DEKALIN, a cyclic hydrocarbon, is a high boiling solvent predominantly used in air drying systems, particularly high quality house paints to which it imparts an excellent flow. Due to its relatively slow evaporation, it retards surface drying, and consequently brushability, flow and gloss are substantially improved. As a saturated hydrocarbon, it does not negatively influence yellowing and for this reason it is particularly suitable for high-quality white paints. Application Air-drying systems, high-quality house paints - particularly white paints. Dosage In general DEKALIN is not used alone, 5 - 10 % calculated on the total amount of solvents is normally sufficient to obtain the described effects.
