8% Manganese Ten-Cem^® D60

Physical Characteristics

Features

• Promotes surface and through-drying properties
• Usually used in combination with cobalt
• Can be used with secondary driers like zirconium, barium or zinc for complete drying of the paint film
• More suitable in pigmented coatings systems as it may cause discoloration in pale-colored or clear coatings

Applications

• Pigmented coatings
• Architectural paints
• Industrial coatings
• Stains

Dosage

In conventional alkyd formulations, the Manganese addition is between 0.01 and 0.05 % metal based on the vehicle solids of the coating and will vary depending upon the composition of the binder. 8% Manganese Ten-Cem^® D60 can also be combined with Zirconium and Calcium driers for optimum surface and through dry. The specific drier blend should be experimentally determined.

Storage

Protect from the effects of weathering and store at temperatures below 50 °C. Once opened, containers should be resealed immediately after each use.
