AQUABEAD® 425E

A larger particle size anionic carnauba wax emulsion that provides water beading with weather resistance, slip, block and mar resistance. Also useful in seed coatings.


FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Provides excellent block and mar resistance with good slip properties
  • Imparts water beading and soil release
  • Improved water resistance compared to AquaKlean 418
  • Can increase surface gloss
  • Anionic emulsion stabilization contributes to immediate hydrophobicity and excellent water resistance
  • Mean emulsion particle size of approximately 1 µm
