  • Features

    • Improved drying activity, color performance, gloss and haze compared to cobalt-based driers
    • Based on a unique, patented, highly active iron complex
    • Primarily recommended for the use in solvent-based systems
    • Can be used in all coatings which dry by oxidation
    • Outperforms cobalt-based driers

  • Applications

    • Coatings with resins that that dry by oxidation 
      • Alkyds 
      • Vegetable oils
      • Epoxy esters
      • Polybutadiene 
      • Others 

  • Dosage

    All resin systems are unique and will require the level of Borchi® OXY - Coat to be optimized for the best cost and dry. We recommend using a ladder study starting at 0.5 % of Borchi® OXY - Coat as supplied on total formulation with a maximum of 3 %. Please keep in mind that too much Borchi® OXY – Coat might inhibit through dry. Borchi® OXY - Coat should be added as one of the last ingredients before the Anti-Skinning agent. 

  • Storage

    Protect from the effects of weathering and store at temperatures between 5 and 30 °C. Once opened, containers should be resealed immediately after each removal of the product.
