Silicone Paints Additives Some additives in the KP Series also improve the paint’s adhesion to the painted surface. Suitable additives are available for a wide range of applications. |
Properties Silicone migrates easily to the painted surface, so it is able to impart its main property, smoothness, to the paint. Silicone that has a high molecular weight forms convection cells on the painted surface, resulting in a hammertone. Silicone disperses evenly inside the paint film and across the painted surface, so it prevents convection caused by the drying of the paint. Dimethyl silicone fluid has functional groups that react with paint resins, so it improves the solubility with the paint, boosts the paint’s durability, and prevents blocking. Silicone reduces paint foaming. Silicone includes functional groups that bond to inorganic substances, metal surfaces, and to paint vehicles, so it improves the paint’s adhesion and boosts the salt water resistance. |
