  • Features

    • Multi-metal drier that provides high reactivity
    • Low dosage of cobalt allows for progressive surface drying of the paint film
    • Homogeneous and even drying

  • Applications

    • Formulations based on medium- and long-oil resins

     

  • Dosage

    • Medium oil resins (40 – 55 %)
      We recommend, for this kind of formulation, the introduction of 2 – 4 % of Borchers® Deca 141 Z on resin solids.
    • Long-oil resins (55 – 75 %)
      We recommend the introduction of 4 – 6 % of Borchers® Deca 141 Z on resin solids.
    • If there are strong proportions of drier-adsorbing pigments (due to their high specific surfaces) and/or resins with an oil- length superior to 70 % in this kind of formulation, it may become necessary to add Octa-Soligen® Calcium 10, basic.
      In this case the recommended dosage of Octa-Soligen® Calcium 10, basic is about 50% related to the dosage of Borchers® Deca 141 Z.
