Product Description:
Cobalt Octoate 10% is a liquid metal drier, primarily used in paints and coatings, that acts as a powerful surface drying catalyst. It’s a bluish-violet liquid with low viscosity, promoting rapid drying of paint films by catalyzing oxidation. It’s often used in conjunction with other driers to achieve uniform drying throughout the paint film.
Properties:
- Appearance: Bluish-violet liquid.
- Function: Surface drier, oxidation catalyst.
- Activity: One of the most active primary driers, especially at ambient temperatures.
- Metal Content: 10% Cobalt (± 0.2).
