The product is very compatible and causes no haze in the coating system. In many cases it displays a deaerating effect. Even at a low dosage it leads to an increase in surface tension. Associated with this are increased surface energy, improved recoatability and intercoat adhesion, even of aqueous systems. In addition, BYK-UV 3535 produces an anti-slip effect. The additive is UV reactive and displays crosslinking with radiation curable systems. For this reason its effect is long lasting and it does not migrate. BYK-UV 3535 is suitable for solvent-free, solvent-borne, and aqueous, radiation curable systems. view less Request Sample
