ImerSilk™

Supplied byImerys- Last Updated on Nov 8, 2023

Premium kaolin extender. The fine platy particles in ImerSilk™ give high opacity in decorative paints formulated below the critical pigment volume concentration (CPVC), while at the same time having only a minimal effect on coating gloss. This can permit up to 15% titanium dioxide saving in semi-gloss, silk and satin paints. Possesses low gloss reduction, additional thixotropic effect and good color properties. It reduces the formulation cost and is easy to disperse in water-based paints.
