Product Uses

Vesmody® U505 is supplied as a pourable and pumpable liquid, it is easy to use and can be added in any formulation time directly after dilution. Depending on the character and amount of the emulsion as well as filler and pigment, the amount of the addition is variable, probably 0.1-2.0% by weight of the formulation in its supplied form. The exact amount required in each formulation should be determined by pre-trials.
