12% Cobalt Cem-All®

Supplied byBorchers (Milliken)- Last Updated on Jun 5, 2026

12% Cobalt Cem-All® by Borchers (Milliken) is a cobalt-based drier. It is suitable for oxidatively cured solvent-based systems. It reduces the surface drying time of coatings, varnishes, stains, and inks.
  • It promotes rapid surface drying by catalyzing redox reactions that decompose hydroperoxides through the conversion of Co²⁺ to Co³⁺.
  • It promotes uniform through-drying of the paint film when used in combination with secondary driers such as zirconium, barium, or zinc.
  • 12% Cobalt Cem-All® is recommended for architectural paints, industrial coatings, stains, artists’ colors and oil-based inks.
  • The recommended dosage level is 0.03–0.08% metal based on vehicle solids of the coating, and 0.03–0.05% based on binder solids.
