Product Applications
  • Ceridust® 3715 is recommended for solvent and water based coatings and inks.
  • It is an excellent rub and scratch resistance additive for all kind of printing inks.
  • The fine powder is easy to disperse especially in water based printing inks.
  • Due to its chemical characteristic it is very stable in water based formulations.
  • In solvent and water based coatings the micronized polyethylene creates an excellent scratch resistance.
  • The strong matting effect makes the Ceridust® 3715 to a very effective matting agent.
  • Also the slip performance can be influenced by the Ceridust® 3715.
