One of the major advantages of enamels based on ACRYSOL™ WS-68 Emulsion is the ease with which they can be sprayed. They atomize finely and resist sagging. Their spraying properties are excellent, similar to those obtained with solvent-borne systems, and match or surpass those of other water reducible coatings made with high levels of co-solvents. Additionally, enamels made with ACRYSOL™ WS-68 Emulsion offer less sensitivity during spray application to variations in ambient conditions (temperature/relative humidity).
- Application Conditions and Equipment for Electrostatic Disk Spray
- Technical personnel have conducted highly successful field trials using Ransburg electrostatic disk equipment to apply ACRYSOL™ WS-68 Emulsion based enamels. From this work a set of optimum application conditions was developed.
- Formulations WS-68-4 and WS-68-5 were designed for application by disk spray equipment.
- These coatings differ from the accompanying air spray formulations on several counts. They include extra DMAE and have reduced solids content. They also contain dipropylene glycol as was noted earlier.
- Use Enamel Modified with Slow Evaporating Non-Solvent to Prolong Set Time and Prevent Orange Peel.
