room temperature curing plastic system
Features and Benefits: BYK-306 is a high-efficiency silicone additive, which can significantly reduce the surface tension, thus improving the resistance to wet Wetting of wet substrates. When used in pigment filled systems
Prevents Bernard vortices and improves leveling.
Recommended Apps
BYK-306 Recommended for polyurethane and epoxy systems.
recommended dosage
0.1-0.5 % Adjuvant dosage (as purchased) based on total Recipe
The above data is the empirical dosage, the optimal dosage needs to pass a test series of tests determined.
Addition method and processing guidance
The additive can be added at any stage of the production process , can also be added later.
The additive can be added at the end of production to avoid foam stabilization and has proven to be very effective.
Special attention
Compared with silicone oil, this additive is safer to use. However, it should still be tested whether surface defects occur in the corresponding system before large-scale use.
Paint Industry
Features and Benefits: This organosilicon additive significantly reduces the surface tension of the coating system and can effectively wet difficult-to-wet substrates. BYK-306 Improve protection against dust andAcceptance of paint mist and increase surface slip. The additive reduces the sensitivity of wood and furniture coatings to drafts and improves the orientation of matting agents.
Recommended Apps
This additive can be used in all solvent-based systems.

Addition method and processing guidance
The additive can be added at any stage of the production process , can also be added later. For ease of dosing, the additive can be prediluted.
Special attention
Compared with silicone oil, this additive is safer to use. However, the foam stability, recoatability and cratering tendency should still be tested in the corresponding system before large-scale use.
