Thixotropic Anti-Sagging SCA Resin Kabasph®SCA-9481S for High-Grade Automotive Clearcoats and Solid Color Paints

Key Benefits

l Rheology control: Prevents sagging while maintaining excellent leveling, with no significant reduction in solids content.

l Pigmented systems: Helps prevent settling, flocculation, and flooding.

l Metallic systems: Improves metallic flake orientation.

l Melamine baking paints: SCA is “built into” the film during baking, so the original SCA is no longer present in the cured film, which retains optimum gloss and transparency.

l Film properties: No adverse effect on solvent resistance, chemical resistance, or mechanical properties.

l High efficiency: As part of the Kabsph high-efficiency SCA resin range, it offers high SCA active content. Recommended dosage can be only about 50–70% of conventional SCA resins on the market, which typically have an active content of 2–3%, helping reduce customers’ operating costs.

l Compared with conventional anti-sagging agents such as silicates, waxes, and organic clays, SCA resins provide rheology control without sacrificing gloss, transparency, or film properties.

l System suitability: As part of the Kabasph®SCA resin range, it is suitable for both melamine-based baking paints and 2K PU paints.
