Byk 060 Solution of foam destroying polymers and polysiloxanes BYK Chemie Defoamer / Antifoaming agent >> Silicone Acrylic/Acrylate Resins Alkyd Resins Amino Resins Epoxy Resins Polyurethane Vinyl Coatings >> Solventborne Diisobutylketon Defoamer for Solvent-Based Coatings Composition BYK-060 Solution of foam destroying polymers and polysiloxanes Values indicated in this data sheet describe typical properties and do not constitute specification limits. Recommended Amounts % additive (delivery form) based upon: Total formulation in exceptional cases up to 1,0 Incorporation Methods and Processing Instructions To achieve full effectiveness, the defoamer should be added prior to the grinding process. If added during a later stage, the available shear forces must be high enough to ensure good distribution of the defoamer in order to prevent cratering. The full effect of the defoamer is achieved 24 hours after incorporation into the system. Special Properties and Advantages BYK-060 BYK-060 is highly efficient and offers optimum defoaming while utilizing only minimal quantities of incompatible substances. Preferred binders are: epoxies, two-pack polyurethane systems, alkyd/melamine, alkyds, self-crosslinking acrylates, and vinyl resins. Defoamer for solvent-based coatings. Highly efficient and offers optimum defoaming while utilizing only minimal quantities of incompatible substances. Preferred binders are: epoxies, two-pack polyurethane systems, alkyd/melamine, alkyds, self-crosslinking acrylates, and vinyl resins. Recommended usage level: 0,05 – 1,0 % additive (delivery form) based upon total formulation. Should be added prior to the grinding process. If added during a later stage, the available shear forces must be high enough to ensure good distribution of the defoamer in order to prevent cratering.
