  • In plasters, in primers, in sealants.

Advantages

  • Compatible with most mineral fillers, pigments and aqueous dispersions;
  • It has a high degree of antifoam ability;
  • Thanks to the auxiliary surfactant system, a high degree of emulsification of the product is achieved, which facilitates the easy application of paints and varnishes to the system, including systems with low dry matter content;
  • Improves storage stability of highly pigmented emulsion paints;
  • Does not distort the appearance of the surface;
  • Storage stability is high.

Dosage

Defoamer Ubifoam 170 can be added at the rate of 0.1-0.5% of the total mass of the watercolor.

Application

It is recommended to introduce the defoamer Ubifoam 170 in two stages: the first part before the filler and pigments are introduced into the system, the second part at the final stage of paint production

Compatibility with other additives

Defoamer Ubifoam 170 is compatible with most of the various additives used in watercolors.

Warning

The composition of the paint and the dosage of the additive should be determined by laboratory tests.
