Octa-Soligen^® 69 HS

Physical Characteristics

Features

• The balanced ratio of the metals cobalt and zirconium in Octa-Soligen^® 69 yields optimum results in respect of initial- and through-drying
• Low viscosity
• Readily meterable
• Cloudiness and precipitation do not occur

Applications

• Binder systems that dry by oxidation, including:
  • White and light-colored paints

Dosage

Experiments have shown that the necessary amount of Octa-Soligen^® 69 should be between 0.25 and 1.00% relative to the solid binder, depending on the binder and the pigment system. This is equivalent to a cobalt content of 0.015 to 0.060 %.

When using pigments which retard the drying process such as carbon black or toluidine red, a higher addition rate or special stabilisation may be necessary. Suitable stabilisers are Octa-Soligen^® Barium 12.5 and in particular Octa-Soligen^® Calcium 10 which, in conjunction with cobalt and zirconium, further accelerates the drying process and provides long-term drier stability.

Storage

Protect from the effects of weathering and store at temperatures below 50 °C.

Once opened, containers should be resealed immediately after each removal of the product.
