【BYK-397】Surface additive for solvent-based paints with excellent defoaming properties.
【BYK-397】Surface additive based on polyacrylate for solvent-based paints, achieving a perfect balance of excellent leveling and defoaming properties.
Features BYK-397 is a low-polarity additive that provides a perfectly balanced general-purpose type, imparting excellent orientation to the paint surface. This has two effects: one is superior leveling properties, and the second is that it also has defoaming capabilities. This effect is achieved even with a small amount of addition. The surface tension of the paint is only slightly reduced, while recoatability and internal adhesion are maintained. Furthermore, BYK-397 can be used in both colored and clear coatings without causing cloudiness or haziness. It can also be used in high-gloss paints. BYK-397 is suitable for both thin and thick film types. It has excellent thermal stability and does not cause yellowing at high bake temperatures.
