ADD APT PolySurF HPACE Mixture of acrylated mono-and di-phosphate ester ADD APT Defoamer / Antifoaming agent >> Silicone-free >> Surfactant & Fatty acid Flame retardant / Fire retardant >> Phosphorus based Photoinitiator Plasticizer >> Phosphate Acrylic/Acrylate Resins Polyester Coatings >> UV / Radiation Curing Coatings >> Waterborne Automotive OEM >> Top coats ADD APT PolySurF HPACE is a solvent free UV-curable additive. It can also act as a co-polymerisable plasticizer, defoamer and/or adhesion promoter with flame retardant properties. It is a proprietary mixture of Acrylated mono-and di-Phosphate ester; where the reactive Acrylate group is Methacrylate and the Acrylic Acid adduct of CARDURA ® E10. Emulsions for paints, lacquers, printing inks and adhesives 1-5 %wt based on monomers, adhesion promoter, hydrophobicity Flame retardant for unsaturated polyesters and polyacrylates ca. 5 % wt. for flame retardant Adhesion promoter for metal (polyacrylates, polyesters) ca. 4 % wt. based on monomers Flame retardant and adhesion promoter for UV curable systems ca. 4 % wt. based on monomers Easy to handle liquid due to the low viscosity It is an effective flame retardant, which does not contain halogens. Addition of approximately 5 % results in a final P content of the flame-retardant polyester or polyacrylate of approx. 0.5 %. Via the Glycidyl ester of Versatic 10 acid (CARDURA ® E10) moiety, a secondary hydroxyl functional group is introduced, which can be used for crosslinking with melamine or isocyanate resins (automotive topcoats). Two-pack systems based on ADD APT PolySurF HPACE containing polymers show a very good potlife because the reactivity of the secondary OH group is not too high. The bulky hydrocarbon group of the Versatic acid provides steric protection to the cured polymer against hydrolysis (good acid resistance), water repellency (hydrophobicity), and provides excellent pigment wetting. ADD APT ® PolySurF HPACE can easily be copolymerised with other acrylic monomers and Styrene, where ADD APT ® PolySurF HPACE has a flexibilising effect. ADD APT ® PolySurF HPACE is a very effective co-polymerisable defoamer for water based UV-curable systems where migration of the defoamer is undesirable. The di-phosphate ester affords some degree of crosslinking without gel formation. Mixture of methacrylated mono-and di-phosphate ester. Used as a solvent free UV-curable additive for paints, lacquers and printing inks. Can Can be used as a co-polymerisable plasticizer, defoamer, adhesion promoter and flame retardant for water based UV curable systems. Offers easy handling and low viscosity. Can be used for crosslinking with melamine and isocyanate resins for automotive topcoats. Provides very good potlife, steric protection against hydrolysis (good acid resistance), water repellency (hydrophobicity) and very good pigment wetting. Can be copolymerised with other acrylic monomers and styrene. Gives flexibilising effect and some degree of crosslinking without gel formation. Use level: 1-5 %wt based on monomers.
