BYK-329 is a silicone-containing surface additive for both solvent-free and solvent-based systems. It significantly reduces surface tension in floor and general industrial coatings, improving leveling and defoaming properties. Additionally, as a defoamer, we have launched the new VOC-free silicone-containing additive BYK-092 for water-based paints, printing inks, and adhesives. Effective BYK defoamers for a wide range of applications BYK-092 is a highly effective defoamer, particularly for water-based clear coats and high-gloss systems. It also performs excellently in matte and pigment systems. Due to its balanced compatibility, this product does not affect transparency or gloss. BYK-092 is effective not only in general applications but also in challenging applications such as HVLP and roller coating. This additive can be added at any stage of production. User-friendly surface additive BYK-329 significantly reduces surface tension in paint coating systems, affecting leveling and defoaming properties. This product enhances substrate wetting and is particularly effective in two-component epoxy resin systems for floor coatings.
