- Processing Data
- PHENOXY™ PK HW-34 dispersion is compatible with most waterborne polyurethanes and acrylics at pH’s greater than 6.5. PHENOXY™ PK HW-34 dispersion is incompatible with acidic materials; low pH media can cause loss of dispersibility and precipitation of the base resin. The addition of PKHW-34 to ambient cure 2k waterborne formulations can improve ultimate film hardness, shorten dry-to-touch times, and improve gloss. Physical properties can be further enhanced with the use of ambient-cure crosslinkers such as aliphatic isocyanates, carbodiimides, polyaziridines, and epoxy silanes. Crosslinkers such as alkylated phenolics and melamine’s are readily dispersed in PKHW-34 to provide shelf-stable, single pack, thermoset formulations. All properly formulated coatings of PKHW-34 display excellent flexibility and surface hardness. PKHW-34 typically contains less than 8% by weight volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) and dimethylethanolamine.
