- Fields of Application
ULTRALUBE® GA 1017 is especially recommended for waterbased overprint varnishes with direct food contact.
- Recommendation for Use
- We generally recommend a dosage of 1.0 - 4.0% ULTRALUBE® GA 1017 in aqueous coating systems related to the total formulation.
- The optimal dosage has to be determined in pre-trials.
- In aqueous coating systems the product is added during or at the end of the production process.
Properties
- Physical Form
- Stabilities
- ULTRALUBE® GA 1017 is sensitive to frost; after the impact of temperatures below the freezing point irreversible changes can occur.
- The containers must be protected from direct sun radiation and kept from temperatures higher than 30°C.
