MicroTouch 800VF

MicroTouch 800VF is Highly resilient spherical polyurethane beads that can modify the tactile properties of formulated coatings and inks while improving burnish, scratch and mar resistance.

Features and Benefits

  • Virtually indestructible elastic particles that distort when disturbed by a physical force and then return to their original spherical shape when the force is removed.
  • Provide different tactile effects ranging from satiny smooth to rubbery to leathery in properly formulated coatings
  • Different particle sizes available to create a unique surface "touch"
  • Improves burnish and abrasion resistance
  • Effective gloss reduction
