TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Lanco 1400 SF has been especially formulated for use in solvent borne wood finishes and varnishes. It can also be used in waterborne and radiation-cured systems.
Lanco 1400 SF surface modifier can be easily dispersed using low speed mixers. Formulation variables such as viscosity, solvent package, resin type, selection of dispersant, pigment surface treatment, etc. can influence the ease of incorporation. High energy dispersers may offer advantages in some applications.
The recommended addition level of Lanco 1400 SF is 0.5-2%, based on total formulation weight. No influence on intercoat adhesion has been observed with this product. It is recommended that recoat ability is checked in critical cases, especially at higher addition rates.
