DESCRIPTION:
NX 795 is a clear, colorless liquid ester alcohol used as a coalescing agent for aqueous dispersions.
NX 795 is used in decorative and industrial coatings.
NX 795 is High compatibility to most polymer dispersions
NX 795 is Effective to achieve optimal film formation
NX 795 is Non-hazardous
NX 795 is Low flammability rating
NX 795 is Biodegradable / Non-persistent

NX 795 is the premier coalescent for latex paints.
NX 795 performs well in all types of latex paints, in a variety of weather conditions, and over substrates with different levels of porosity.
NX 795 provides the highest level of film integrity at low levels of coalescent, enhancing the performance properties of the paint including low temperature coalescence, touch-up, scrub resistance, washability, color development, thermal flexibility, and resistance to mudcracking.
NX 795 also enhances thickening efficiency when used with associative thickeners.
NX 795 also works well in a variety of other applications.
NX 795 is an ideal choice as a retarder solvent for use in coil coatings and high-bake enamels.
Its unique balance of properties also makes it useful for a variety of chemical specialty applications such as ore flotation / frothing, oil-drilling muds, wood preservative carriers, and floor polishes.
With a boiling point of 254°C, (vapor pressure 0.01 kPa @ 20°C), Texanol (DN-12) is not classified as a VOC according to European Union Decopaint Directive 2004/42/EC (commonly referred to as the Decopaint Directive); European Union Solvent Emissions Directive; and the China State Environmental Protection agency.
