FX 4

FX 4 by Eagle Specialty Products is a viscosity stabilizer, anti-gelling agent, pigment wetting and dispersing additive. It prevents viscosity increase during manufacture and storage. It stabilizes pigment/vehicle systems that tend to cure or gel over time.

• It is suitable for solvent-based applications.
• It is used to stabilize pigments such as carbon blacks, magnetic iron oxides, nano-sized particles, and other high surface area inorganic and organic pigments.
• It is formulated to be highly effective at low levels without adversely effecting inter-coat adhesion.
• FX 4 eliminates viscosity build-up and gelling caused by premature polymerization or changes in vehicle absorption, especially in systems with driers or high metal content catalysts.
• Additionally, it effectively wets dispersions that are difficult to grind.
• Recommended dosage level is 1-2% based upon mill base weight and 0.5 to 1.0% based upon total formula weight.
