Active ingredients | 100% |
Density (20 °C) | 1.04 g/ml |
special Reminder
This additive is suitable for systems without organic co-solvents. In very high systems, the effect of silicone surfactants will be reduced. At this time, we recommend using silicone polymer surfactants such as BYK-333.

This additive is especially recommended for all water-based coatings without co-solvent, especially It is styrene-acrylic, pure acrylic, acrylic/polyurethane, polyurethane and baking varnish system.
Recommendation Dosage
0.05-0.5% additive level (as supplied) based on total formulation.
The above recommended dosage is for reference, the optimal dosage needs to be determined through a series of experiments .
Join Methods and processing instructions
The additive can be added at any production stage, we recommend the final production of the paint stage added.
Adhesive and sealants
Features and Benefits: BYK-349 is a highly effective silicone surfactant , the additive drastically reduces the surface tension of water-based adhesives and thus can be used to wet particularly difficult-to-wet substrates.

Maintenance Supplies and Polishing Materials
Features and Benefits: BYK-349 is a highly effective silicone surfactant , Strongly reduce the surface tension of the system to improve the substrate wetting and leveling of maintenance products. It may have a slight foam stabilization, which will not affect the application of subsequent coatings and will not increase the surface slip.
Recommended Purpose
This additive is especially recommended for maintenance products and wax cleaning without plasticizer agent.
