K-FLEX® 500P offers excellent scrub resistance and gloss and aids in the development of desirable performance characteristics while offering improved handling due to low temperature flexibility. Its performance and value make it a viable replacement to higher-volatility coalescents such as TMPDMIB (2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate) or even low-VOC types such as triethylene glycol di-2-ethylhexanoate. It is highly recommended for interior and exterior latex paints, industrial coatings, nitrocellulosic and acrylic lacquers, and special purpose coatings. It is also effective in direct-to-metal coatings such as primers. Emerald Kalama Chemical was acquired by LANXESS in 2021.
