Borchers® Deca Manganese 8 HS

Manganese decanoate (50-70%). Acts as a highly effective oxidative drier. Promotes both surface and through-dry in oxidatively cured binder systems. It is used in combination with other primary driers like e.g. Borchi® OXY-Coat or Borchers® Deca Cobalt. Manganese is mainly used in pigmented coating systems and primers because its inherent color may cause discoloration in clear or light colored coatings. Applications in VOC-reduced and high-solids conventional architectural paints, wood coatings, printing inks and other industrial coatings based on resins that dry by oxidation.
