WorléeThix SD 6051

WorléeThix SD 6051 is a thixotropic long oil alkyd resin, mainly for the manufacture of primers, fillers, gloss paints and silk gloss paints

Compatibility
WorléeThix SD 6051 is compatible with most medium and long oil air drying alkyd resins. It ismalso compatible with the common maleic and phenolic modified hard resins.

Solubility
WorléeThix SD 6051 is soluble in all common solvents.

Application and Properties
WorléeThix SD 6051 is especially recommended for primers, gloss paints and silk gloss paints as well as in thick layer anti corrosion systems. All these paint systems show very good application properties while brushing rolling and spraying. WorléeThix SD 6051 reduces sagging from vertical surfaces.

WorléeThix SD 6051 has an improved stability against polar solvents, matting agents and driers. Therefore WorléeThix SD 6051 for example can also be used in colour paste systems.

WorléeThix SD 6051 can be combined with other alkyd resins like e.g.

  • WorléeKyd S 351 (for silk gloss paints)
  • WorléeKyd B 865 U (thick layer anti corrosion systems)
  • WorléeKyd B 870 (for glossy decorative paints) etc.

With the additional use of strong polar additives, strong polar after-treated matting agents and polar solvents please note that the content is not too high.

If the content reaches a too high level the thixotropy of WorléeThix SD 6051 is reduced. At a temperature of approx. 60 °C WorléeThix SD 6051 shows good pumping properties.
