It is a standard surface additive in the coatings industry for all solvent-borne systems. These additives provide a medium reduction of the surface tension of paint systems.They increase surface slip as well as improve leveling and gloss. Silicone additives prevent formation of Bénard cells. These additives also improve substrate wetting and give anti-blocking properties. view less Request Sample
BYK®-ES 80 BYK BYK®-ES 80 is an additive used to increase conductivity of electrostatically sprayed solvent-borne coatings. It is a solution of an alkylolammonium salt of an unsaturated acidic carboxylic acid ester.

It is a solution of a lower molecular weight unsaturated polycarboxylic acid polymer. This product is suitable for medium to high polar systems and particularly effective in preventing flooding of titanium dioxide in combination with other color pigments. It is also used in amine-neutralized aqueous coatings; it is not compatible with mineral spirits. When used in anti-corrosion primers, in many cases the protective properties are enhanced. view less Request Sample
BYK®-P 104 S BYK BYK®-P 104 S is a wetting and dispersing additive for solvent-borne systems. It is a solution of a lower molecular weight unsaturated polycarboxylic acid polymer and a polysiloxane copolymer. This product can be used in the same systems as BYK-P 104. The ...view more BYK®-P 104 S is a wetting and dispersing additive for solvent-borne systems. It is a solution of a lower molecular weight unsaturated polycarboxylic acid polymer and a polysiloxane copolymer. This product can be used in the same systems as BYK-P 104. The additive also contains a small amount of a polysiloxane copolymer to more effectively avoid flooding. This silicone content is additionally helpful in preventing Bénard cells and silking, and also improves surface slip, leveling and orientation of flatting agents or aluminium flakes. Therefore it is oftentimes not necessary to add a separate dosage of an otherwise needed silicone additive. view less Request Sample

It is a lower molecular weight unsaturated polycarboxylic acid polymer. This product is the solvent-free version of BYK-P 104. These additives lead to a controlled flocculation of pigments. "Bridges“ are formed between single pigment particles causing three-dimensional structures to develop. Through controlled flocculation of pigments, flooding and floating, settling, and sagging of pigments is avoided. view less Request Sample
