Ascinin® Anti Skin 0445 is an anti-skinning agent designed for use in solventborne and waterborne oxidatively cured coating systems. Here's a breakdown of its key features:

Description:

• Composition: Contains a special combination of active ingredients with high anti-oxidative potential.
• Substitute: Does not contain oximes or phenolics, serving as a non-hazardous substitute for these antioxidants.

Characteristic Data:

• Appearance: Clear, low-viscous, colorless to yellowish liquid.
• Density: 0.990 - 1.030 g/cm³ at 20 °C.
• Viscosity: 30 - 130 mPa·s at 20 °C.
• Solvent: Glycol.

Properties:

• Storage Stability: Improves the storage stability of solventborne oxidatively cured coating systems, printing inks, and pigment pastes by preventing skin formation on the surface.
• Surface Dry Retardation: Controls surface dry retardation, ensuring deeper penetration of oxygen to lower film layers, promoting through dry and improving flow properties.
• Compatibility: Suitable for common solventborne coatings, polar, and waterborne formulations, including clear or pigmented systems.

Dosage and Application:

• Dosage: Can be added at any stage of the manufacturing process, preferably as the final addition after driers. Typical amounts range from 0.2 to 0.6 % by weight on the total formulation.
• Substitution Guidance: When substituting for Butanonoxime, it's recommended to start with half the original amount and adjust as needed.

Storage and Safety:

• Storage: Store between 5 and 30 °C in the original container. Reseal containers immediately after each use.
• Safety: No special labeling required, not considered dangerous cargo. Refer to the safety data sheet for further information.

Ascinin® Anti Skin 1240 is an anti-skinning agent designed for use in oxidatively drying coating systems and pastes with reduced VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) content. It helps to prevent skin formation on the surface of coatings and pastes while they are still in the container, improving their storage stability.

Key Features:

• Prevents Skin Formation: Ascinin® Anti Skin 1240 effectively prevents skin formation on the surface of coatings and pastes, ensuring their usability even after prolonged storage.
• Surface Dry Retardation Control: It controls surface dry retardation, keeping the film open longer. This promotes deeper penetration of oxygen to lower film layers, which enhances through dry and improves flow properties.
• Versatile Applications: Suitable for use in various applications including printing inks, clear or pigmented systems, solvent-based and solvent-free oxidatively drying coatings, high solids paints, environmentally friendly coatings, and VOC-reduced formulations.
• Substitution of Butanonoxime: Can be used as a substitute for Butanonoxime, with recommended starting amounts at half the quantity of the substituted Butanonoxime. The addition rate can then be optimized based on the obtained results.

Applications:

• Printing Inks: Used in printing ink formulations to prevent skin formation and improve storage stability.
• Coatings: Suitable for solvent-based and solvent-free oxidatively drying coatings, including high solids paints and environmentally friendly formulations.
• Pigment Pastes: Can be incorporated into pigment pastes to prevent skinning and improve their storage stability.

Dosage:

• Ascinin® Anti Skin 1240 can be added to the formulation in any step without preliminary dilution.
• Typical amounts for coating systems based on alkyds range from approximately 0.2 to 0.8% by weight of the total formulation.
• For substitution of Butanonoxime, it is recommended to start with half the amount of the substituted Butanonoxime and adjust based on the results.
