PRODUCT DATA SUGGESTED USES

Determined per batch: Additol XL 480 may be used with any type of paint material, e.g. on the
basis of alkyd/melamine systems, acrylics, polyurethane systems, oil-free
Dynamic Viscosity DIN EN ISO 3219 polyesters, etc. Additol XL 480 prevents surface defects of paint films. In
dynamic viscosity [mPa.s] 150 - 280 most cases, the coemployment of Additol XL 480 helps to prevent craters,
(25 1/s; 23 °C) even caused by neighbouring spray mists of other paints.

Iodine Colour Number DIN 6162 Further, film defects caused by applicational conditions, like poor levelling,
iodine colour number <= 2 uneven surface, etc. can be avoided. The use of Additol XL 480 affords
higher security against surface defects on application.
