Use of fillers & combinations

Although the appearance of paints change through the addition of previously mentioned matting additives, the performance is not affected. By using specific fillers we clearly increase the Pigment-Volume-Concentration of paint involving with all the side effects it implies. That's the reason why this method of matting is limited for only pigmented, economical lower classes paint systems.

The fillers with preferential narrow particle size distribution have to disperse together with the pigments. To adjust a required gloss degree it is praxis to adjust it by using stir in Silica at the end of the paint production process.

Organic Materials:

With modern grinding techniques it is possible to grind plastic material based mainly upon Poly methyl urea resin. Such products have a low influence on viscosity, they show temperature stability up to 200°C, they have good solvent resistivity, and they are easy to disperse.
