Coatings Industry
Special Features and Benefits
Using DOPPEL-AG-613 can greatly reduce the static and dynamic surface tension, which results in a significant improvement in substrate wetting and leveling. DOPPEL-LP-613also enables difficult substrates such as wood, which have porous and uneven surfaces, to be wetted.
DOPPEL-LAG-613 does not stabilize foam, has no negative impact on recoatability and does not increase surface slip. Coating defects such as “picture framing” and “fish eyes” are considerably reduced. As a result of its high compatibility with various binder systems, even with a low proportion of co-solvent, DOPPEL-LAG-613 is ideally suited for use in modern coating systems.
