72EB70 Water Reducible

Code: 72EB70 Water Reducible

Soy fatty acid-based water-reducible short oil alkyd resin for primers and fast-drying topcoat formulations.

72EB70 is a fatty acid-based short oil alkyd resin designed for water-reducible coating systems. It is supplied in glycol ether EB and contains built-in acid groups that require neutralization before water can be incorporated.

Additional co-solvent is required as part of the water-reduction process. The resin is designed for coating formulations that can be applied as air-dry or force-dry systems.

Key benefits

  • Excellent hot hardness
  • Fast air-dry capability
  • Suitable for force-dry systems
  • Water-reducible formulation platform
  • Suitable for primer and topcoat development

Typical applications

* Water-reducible primers and topcoats
* Air-drying coatings
* Force-drying coatings
* Industrial coating systems
* Alkyd primer and topcoat formulations
