Achieve Superior Finish with IOTA-3000
Unlock the full potential of your paints, coatings, and inks with the IOTA-3000, a premium silicone surface additive from Mingyi Silicone. Designed for formulators seeking the highest standards of aesthetics and performance, IOTA-3000 is the key to achieving a defect-free, professional-grade surface finish.
As a polyether-modified polysiloxane, IOTA-3000 works by dynamically altering the surface chemistry of your liquid formulation. By lowering its surface tension to just 22.7 mN/m, it ensures rapid and complete wetting of the substrate, which is the first step to a perfect coat. This action not only prevents defects like fisheyes and poor adhesion but also promotes excellent flow and leveling across the film. The result is a smooth, uniform surface with outstanding gloss and a silky, smooth feel that is also highly resistant to scratches and blockings.
The adaptability of IOTA-3000 makes it an indispensable tool for any modern coating laboratory. It is fully effective in aqueous systems such as latex paints and water-based inks, as well as in traditional solvent-based industrial coatings and 100% solids, solvent-free formulations. Its 99.9% active content ensures that a small addition yields a significant improvement in quality.
To achieve the best results, simply add IOTA-3000 during the manufacturing process. For water-based and solvent-free systems, an addition of 0.3% to 1.0% is recommended, while solvent-based systems require only 0.05% to 0.5%. Supplied in various packaging options from 25Kg pails to 200Kg drums, it is easy to handle and store. Trust IOTA-3000 to deliver the wetting, leveling, and surface slip your products need to excel.
