Product Applications

SIPERNAT® FPS-5 is designed to adjust thixotropy / viscosity in unsaturated polyester resins (gel coats). Applied in thin films, it generates a proper antiblocking effect. Its high purity makes it an ideal flow aid for food ingredients. In offset printing inks it is a suitable extender. Its matting efficiency makes it useful for water-based printing inks.
