Proper coalescence is the crucial point of the drying process of latex paints. Perstorp’s new NX 800 low-odour coalescing agent greatly improves film formation, requiring small addition levels, and contributes to better preservation of the paint. NX 800 is easy to use and effective in all aqueous polymer dispersions. Further, NX 800 gives greater gloss and flexibility while increasing barrier properties and film integrity. It is a powerful and yet environmentally non-hazardous tool to ensure all latex products perform at their best.
