Improve DPR and decrease formulation costs with Capstone® FS-81

4/27/2012 10:10:00 AM

Work with DuPont to optimise your paint. Simplify your formulation, improve performance by reducing surface defects & improving DPR. And reduce formulation cost.

Capstone® Fluorosurfactants used in architectural and decorative coatings can simplify formulations, improve performance and reduce formulation cost.  

Capstone® FS-81 is a multi-functional, easy-clean additive used to improve dirt pick-up resistance (DPR), oil repellency and washability in exterior and interior latex paints so common household stains are easier to remove and the surface stays looking cleaner for longer.

In low-VOC / VOC-free coatings the reduction in solvents has led to the need for functional additives to maintain performance.  Adding additional wetting agents, defoamers, levelling aids and anti-block agents to name a few, adds time onto developments and cost onto formulations as most serve one function e.g. a wetting agent or anti-block.  Capstone® FS-81 and other products in the range are multi-functional.  Extensive research carried out by DuPont™ shows using fluorosurfactants in the grind and let-down phases of formulations can reduce and in some cases eliminate the need for surfactant-based additives.  DuPont™ are offering to work with you to optimise your coatings with Capstone® Fluorosurfactants to obtain these benefits.

Comparing Capstone® Fluorosurfactants to hydrocarbon and silicone surfactants on the market the Capstone® Fluorosurfactants:
  • Reduce surface defects in low-VOC / VOC-free coatings
  • Reduce surface tension – coatings are easy to apply and film formation is improved
  • Improve block resistance but with no impact on gloss
  • Improve DPR – coatings last longer
  • Reduce costs by working with DuPont to optimise formulation
