- CRAYVALLAC® 60 X is a waxy solid paste consisting of very fine droplets of oxidized polyethylene dispersed in xylene.
- The fine nature of this dispersion means that CRAYVALLAC® 60X is easily incorporated and activated in coating systems.
- It is mainly used in industrial and maintenance coatings where its primary function is to provide pigment suspension without any increase in the apparent viscosity.
- CRAYVALLAC® 60 X can generally be used in most solvent-based formulations.
- Typical applications are epoxy primers, vinyl primers, anti-fouling paints, road marking paints and chlorinated rubber coatings.
- CRAYVALLAC® 60 X can be incorporated using most high shear dispersion equipment.
- It is particularly suited to incorporation by high-speed disperser.
- These develop both the necessary temperature and shear for efficient activation.
- CRAYVALLAC® 60 X is best added to the highspeed disperser following the initial charge of binder, pigments and extenders prior to the dispersion stage. Efficient dispersion and activation requires the generation of a temperature in excess of 45°C (113°F) during the dispersion stage.
- One additional advantage to be gained from CRAYVALLAC® 60 X is that when used in conjunction with amide based rheology modifiers such as CRAYVALLAC® SUPER and CRAYVALLAC® ULTRA a synergistic effect is often observed in that a disproportionately higher than expected level of anti-settle and sag resistance performance is obtained.
- Due to the multitude of formulations, processing methods and application conditions used in the field, we strongly recommend that all products containing CRAYVALLAC® 60 X be tested thoroughly to ensure their suitability for their intended end use.
- In particular, application in poorly ventilated areas, or on hot substrates, or by hot spray, may require additional attention.
