Alkydal F 48 TB/X Medium-oil alkyd resin Bayer MaterialScience Alkyd Resins >> Medium-oil Architectural / Decorative >> Do-it-yourself General Industrial /Maintenance White spirit/xylene 38:7 Soluble in aromatic, aliphatic and terpene hydrocarbons, esters, ketones and glycol ethers Insoluble in alcohols Medium-oil, air-drying alkyl resin based on drying vegetable fatty acids In the formulation of high-quality, air and force-drying industrial coatings, radiotor paints, special effect finishes, primers and DIY paints. Alkydal F 48 TB/X is the standard binder for air and force-drying industrial coatings. Its main characteristics are its rapid drying (fourhour coating), good through-drying and curing to form defect-free films, even in thick coats. It also yields good film properties - whiteness, resistance to yellowing, gloss and gloss retention, brilliance, body, flow and weather stability. Alkydal F 48 TB/X can be used in primers as well as in all types of top coats and one-coat finishes. Coatings based on Alkydal F 48 TB/X can be applied using conventional methods such as spraying, dipping and flow coating. A combination of 0.1 % Ca/0.06 % Co/0.2 % Zn and 0.2 % Zr-octoate, calculated as metal on solvent-free resin, has proved to be a useful mixture for speeding up the drying. Combination with long-oil alkyd resins is necessary for DIY paints applied by brushing. Medium-oil, air-drying alkyl resin based on drying vegetable fatty acids.
