Feature
Matting silica chemical powder is commonly used in water-based coatings to provide a matte or satin finish to the coating.
The powder is typically added to the coating formulation during the manufacturing process.
Here is a general process for matting silica chemical powder for water-based coatings:
1. Select the appropriate grade of matting Silica Powder based on the desired level of matting effect. Different grades of
matting silica have different particle sizes and shapes, which can affect the final appearance of the coating.
2. Measure the desired amount of matting silica powder based on the formulation requirements. The amount of powder needed
will depend on factors such as the desired level of matting effect and the type of coating being formulated.
3. Pre-disperse the matting silica powder in a small amount of water or solvent to create a slurry. This step helps to ensure that
the powder is evenly dispersed in the coating formulation and prevents clumping.
4. Add the pre-dispersed matting silica slurry to the main coating formulation. This can be done gradually while stirring the coating
mixture to ensure proper dispersion.
5. Continue to mix the coating formulation for a sufficient amount of time to ensure that the matting silica powder is fully dispersed
and evenly distribute throughout the coating. This step is important to achieve a consistent appearance and performance of the
coating.
6. Test the coating formulation for its matting effect by applying a small amount of the coating to a test substrate. Allow the coating
to dry and observe the level of matte or satin finish achieved. Adjust the amount of matting silica powder if necessary to achieve the desired effect.
7. Once the desired level of matting effect is achieved, the coating formulation can be further processed and applied to the desired substrate using standard
coating application methods.
It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and guidelines when working with matting silica powder and to ensure proper safety precautions aretaken, such as using appropriate personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area.
USING TIPS:
* Recommend dosage is 3%-8%. (Please adjust the dosage according to the actual product.)
* As different formulations and conditions, suggest the user to test and make sure the dosage before using.
