DESCRIPTION

 Polyurethane modified silicone microsphere TP508U can be added into paint and inks to provide a smooth, soft and suede touch with good wear and scratch resistance properties. For water-based system, we offer pre-dispersed product TP508U-40 which is much easier to use. With the same diameter – 8.0μm and all modified by PU, TP508U is harder than TP308U but more slippery. 

FEATURES

 • Provide a special soft and suede touch. 

 • Improve abrasion and scratch resistance. 

 • Anti-aging. 

 • Less moisture absorption. 

 • Less yellowing Vs pure PU powder 

 • Less swelling Vs pure PU powder 

 • Much more thermal stability than pure PU powder

ADVANTAGES 

 • High silicone content, offering better heat resistance and anti-aging property. 

 • Polyurethane modified surface significantly improves the compatibility with other resins.

COMPOSITION 

 • Polyurethane modified silicone elastomer 

PACKAGE

 • Added into TPU, TPE and TPV to offer a smooth suede touch. 

HOW TO USE

 • Dosage: depending on different requirements for touch, surface gloss, etc., the dosage of TP508U in paints and inks is 1.0 – 10.0%. 

 • Dispersion disc can facilitate the dispersion of TP508U in the formulation, but ultrasonic dispersion is much more effective.
