DEUTEROL PARAFFINDISPERSION is a matting paraffin dispersion for water dilutable polyester systems.

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 MK-matting agents are suitable as exclusive matting agents for water-borne, solvent-borne and solvent-free systems, air-drying as well as stoving. They can also be used in printing inks, wood lacquers, UV-curing coatings, coil-coatings, lacquers on foils, aqueous wood- and furniture varnishes.

The finer types are suitable where particularly thin dry films are applied or where very smooth surfaces have to be realized. The combination with inorganic matting agents is possible and leads to improved mechanical resistances. Scratch resistance and resistance against polishing will be increased.

Deuteron MK matting agents are micro-ground resp. micronized powders. The fineness enables Deuteron MK-products to be used in a wide field of applications for producing satin-flat and satin-gloss coatings. The small binder demand of Deuteron MK only leads to a nonessential viscosity influence, which is important for UV-curing lacquers. Deuteron MK is resistant against solvents and chemicals which are customary in the paint industry. These products can also be used in exterior applications. Adjustments to specific requirements can easily be made due to the different particle sizes, available.

Deuteron LE 829 is designed to be used as an antistatic agent for polyurethane compounds based on polyester and polyether. These compounds are used in the production of soles with antistatic character as required by EN 344 or for special shoes for use in computing and medical areas.

Deuteron LE 829 is of high polarity and thus noticeably reduces the electrical resistance of polyurethane-foams, even when used in small quantities.
