Manufacturers of aqueous high-gloss and wood coatings now have a new solvent-free, high-performance additive that eliminates foam without compromising surface appearance or integrity: Troykyd D209W from Troy Corporation. Highly compatible Troykyd D209W offers excellent functionality in a broad range of aqueous systems, including high-gloss and wood coatings, both clear and pigmented, as well as other end-use areas, including spray applied systems. With a solvent-free composition, Troykyd D209W is an excellent choice for environmentally ‘green’ coatings.
“An essential capability of a new generation, high-performance defoaming additive is minimization of surface defects,” said Troy’s Dr. Izzy Colon, Vice President, Science & Technology. “While conventional defoamers have a tendency to create cratering and pinholes in end-use systems, Troykyd D209W leaves systems virtually free of surface defects.” Additionally, Troykyd D209W does not compromise the system’s gloss or clarity, which makes the product ideal for high-quality clear and high-gloss coatings.
Troykyd D209W has shown equivalent defoaming performance when compared with the leading competitor products in fresh aqueous paint samples, and superior defoaming performance in aged samples, which translates into a significantly longer useful service life for end-use paints and coatings. “Developed for high quality ‘green’ aqueous coatings, Troykyd D209W offers formulators significant performance, compatibility, and use advantages,” continued Colon.
