It performs well in paint systems of polyesters and epoxy as binder and with combination of solvents like PM acetate, n-butanol, MEK, xylene and solvesso type solvents. For systems with high demand of anti settling, such as zinc rich primer, it works synergistically with M-P-A anti settling additives. It is used in polyester baking enamel, 2K epoxy marine, heavy duty industrial paint systems. Recommended dosage is 0.2-2.0% by weight of the system.
