BYK has an established history of innovation such as being the first additive manufacturer to begin using Controlled Polymerization Technology (CPT), launching the first rheology-modified wax emulsion, and being one of the first companies to use nanotechnology for improving Coatings properties. BYK invests approximately 7.5% of its earnings in R&D—three times more than the industry average.

BYK®-394 is a silicone-free acrylic release agent with leveling properties. It is a solution of a polyacrylate copolymer. This product is recommended for solvent-borne and solvent-free baking and 2-pack PU coatings. The additive orientates to the paint surface and crosslinks into the polymer network due to its reactivity and is therefore fixed at the paint surface. BYK-394 reacts by primary OH-groups with binders and is used in solvent-borne systems. The additive reacts with the following binders: 2-pack Polyurethane, Alkyd-Melamine, Polyester-Melamine, Acrylic-Melamine, AcrylicEpoxy combinations. This additive improves leveling and gloss. It produces a long wave effect and prevents cratering without influence on surface tension (silicone-free). BYK-394 is thermally stable. view less
