It is no longer possible to imagine the powder coating industry without cost-optimized application processes. On the one hand, lowering the baking temperature plays a key role in a resource-efficient process. On the other, the demands on the performance of the system are ever increasing. In response to these industrial aspects, BYK has rolled out a new wax additive which is characterized in particular by its low melting point: CERAFLOUR 964.
CERAFLOUR 964 is immediately effective in extruding and baking and has good degassing properties, especially in β-HAA systems and low-temperature systems. Even with thicker coatings, there are no pinholes. In addition, the additive does not affect surface tension, does not reduce gloss and does not form a wax film on the surface. Nor is transparency impaired with use in clear coatings.
