Deuteron MK products are micronized duromeric plastic powders based on PMU (Polymethyl urea). They are specifically designed as matting agents for various coating applications. These matting agents have highly amorphous particle structures with a comparatively high surface area, making them effective in providing a matte finish.
They offer several advantages including good matting effect, low influence on viscosity, high mechanical and chemical resistance, scratch resistance, resistance to polishing, support of soft effects, temperature resistance, pleasant touch, improved blocking resistance, insolubility in commonly used solvents, and biodegradability.
Deuteron MK matting agents can be used in a wide range of coating applications including waterborne, solvent-borne, and 100% systems. They can be used either as stand-alone additives or in combination with other materials to enhance properties.
The dosage typically ranges from 1% to 15%, but the exact amount depends on the specific system and application parameters, which can be determined through practical studies.
The Deuteron MK range offers different products with variations in particle sizes and other characteristics to suit various application needs. They are easy to incorporate into systems without the need for specific wetting agents or dispersing aids.
These products have a shelf life of 24 months under room temperature and dry conditions, with storage temperature not exceeding 35°C.
Regarding safety, according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, Deuteron MK products are not classified as dangerous products and therefore do not require special labeling. However, detailed safety information is provided in Safety Data Sheets and Regulatory Information Sheets available on their website.
Deuteron GmbH has been developing and selling innovative additives since 1977 and has become a significant partner for the national and international paint, lacquer, and coating industry.
Overall, Deuteron MK products offer high-quality matting solutions for various coating applications, backed by decades of expertise and technical support from Deuteron GmbH.
