PROPYLMATTE 31

Finely micronized polypropylene for efficient matting and gloss control in paints, coatings and inks


FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Provides consistent gloss reduction with no effect on coating viscosity
  • Tough, high molecular weight polymer imparts burnish and abrasion resistance
  • Imparts anti-slip properties
  • Density (0.89) ideal for solvent based systems
  • For more efficient matting with a fine microtexture, try PropylTex 325S/270S
  • Adds texture in low bake (Low E) powder coatings

COMPOSITION

Polypropylene

RECOMMENDED ADDITION LEVELS

2.0 - 5.0% depending on the level of gloss reduction desired

SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS

Water based and solvent based coatings. Industrial coatings (including plastic, metal and leather); architectural wall and trim paints; stains, sealers and varnishes; wood coatings; printing inks and OPV's (including flexo and gravure); powder coatings; coil coatings.
