BYK 354 is a polyacrylate-based, surface additive.
BYK 354 is used as an anti-cratering & leveling additive, increases gloss and also has a deaerating effect as a result of its high molecular weight and non-polar structure.
This thermally stable additive only reduces surface tension slightly.
CAS NO: 919533-63-4
BYK 354 is recommended for all ambient curing resin systems such as unsaturated polyester resins and epoxy resins.
The recommended level is 0.1-1.5% additive (as supplied) based upon total formulation.
BYK 354 is a solution of a polyacrylate.
These additives improve leveling and gloss.
They produce a long wave effect and avoid cratering in the system.
These acrylate additives do not negatively influence recoatability or intercoat adhesion.
Surface tension is only slightly reduced.
These additives are thermally stable.
Due to BYK 354's high molecular weight and its unpolar structure, BYK-354 has both leveling and air release properties.
BYK 354 is a polyacrylate-based surface additive for solvent-borne and solvent-free coatings, UV-curing printing inks, overprint varnishes, and ambient curing plastic systems.
BYK 354 functions as a standard leveling agent with a deaerating effect, improving deaeration and offering thermal stability.
Suitable for radiation-cure applications, BYK 354 is in liquid form and is ideal for solventborne and solventless high solids coatings.
BYK 354 is a polyacrylate-based surface additive that provides leveling and anti-cratering properties.
BYK 354 increases gloss and has a deaerating effect due to its high molecular weight and non-polar structure.
BYK 354 only reduces surface tension slightly.
BYK 354 is recommended for solvent-borne and solvent-free systems as well as UV-curing products.
BYK 354 performs well at levels between 0.1-1.5% and can be incorporated during any stage of production, including post-addition, for optimized deaeration when added to the mill base.
BYK 354 is thermally stable and helps provide a smooth finish without negatively impacting intercoat adhesion or overprinting capabilities.
BYK 354's unique properties make BYK 354 well-suited as a surface additive for applications where a high-quality aesthetic is required.
