OCTA-SOLIGEN 203

Cobalt effects rapid surface drying. In conjunction with cobalt, barium improves through-drying. At the same time it prevents the adsorption of primary drier, thereby increasing drier stability during long-term storage.Zinc prolongs the open time of the paint film, thereby promoting uniform through-drying and preventing wrinkling and skinning.The balanced ratio of the various metal contents of Octa-Soligen 203 yields optimum results in respect initial- and through-drying. As a result of the wetting action of the barium, this drier possesses excellent drierstability, rendering use of additional drier stabilisers unnecessary except in the case of critical pigment systems.Octa-Soligen 203 is of low viscosity, readily meterable, has a long shelf-life and is particularly suitable for white and light-colored paint systems.Paints incorporating Octa-Soligen 203 are characterised by better drying times even under adverse atmospheric conditions.
