Deuteron AP 348 is designed for the use in powder coatings.

An important feature of Deuteron AP 348 is the low viscosity of the fusion. It is a non-polar polyethylene wax with good toughness in spite of the high hardness. Surfaces of powder coatings containing Deuteron AP 348 show a remarkable slip resistance. This effect is shown by only a few waxes.

In some cases it has been noticed that the presence of Deuteron AP 348 in powder coatings improves their flow. This depends on the low softening respective melting point of this polyethylene wax and its limited compatibility with the used resins.

Deuteron MM 823 has been developed for use in solvent-based and solvent-free, non-aqueous coating systems, printing inks and powder coatings. The presence of PTFE in Deuteron MM 823 generally spoils wetting when the product is used in water.

Deuteron MM 823 imparts coatings a high resistance to metal marking and abrasion. Scratch resistance will be improved. The product is non thermoplastic. Its use imparts good blocking stability. Increased dosage interferes with the coating‘s gloss.
