MICROTOUCH 800XF
Highly resilient spherical polyurethane beads that can modify the tactile properties of formulated coatings and inks while improving burnish, scratch and mar resistance
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Virtually indestructible elastic particles that distort when disturbed by a physical force and then return to their original spherical shape when the force is removed
- Provide different tactile effects ranging from satiny smooth to rubbery to leathery in properly formulated coatings
- Different particle sizes available to create a unique surface "touch"
- Improves burnish and abrasion resistance
- Effective gloss reduction
COMPOSITION
Aliphatic polyurethane
RECOMMENDED ADDITION LEVELS
2.0 - 10.0% (higher amounts when greater tactile effects are desired)
SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS
Water based, solvent based and energy curable coatings and inks. Industrial coatings (including plastic, vinyl and leather); architectural wall and trim paints; wood coatings; printing inks and OPV's (including flexo and gravure); powder coatings; interior and exterior can and container coatings; soft touch coatings; floor coatings; visual effects.
