PRODUCT DATA SPECIAL PROPERTIES AND USE
Additol VXW 6393 was designed to destroy foam generated in emulsion
Determined per batch: wall-paints, based on PVAC, PVC, acrylics and their mixed polymers.
Prior to using Additol VXW 6393 it should be thoroughly agitated since it is
Dynamic Viscosity DIN EN ISO 3219 prone to sediment fall out. When examining its rheology it is necessary to
dynamic viscosity [mPa.s] < 250 wait an additional 5 minutes.
(100 1/s; 23 °C)
Additol VXW 6393 can be easily emulsified and worked into the designated

some cases it may be an advantage to add 2/3 of the total quantity to the

approx. The total recommended dosage is generally 0.1 - 0.5 % on total formulated
(20 °C) solids. In some cases, where especially strong foam generation is observed, a
Flash Point (Pensky-Martens) DIN EN ISO 2719 higher dosage may be necessary; it should, however, not exceed 1 %. The
flash point [°C] > 100 optimum dosage may vary from formulation to formulation.
STORAGE
At temperatures up to 25 °C storage stability packed in original containers
amounts to at least 365 days.
Phase separation may develop, which can easily be remedied by shaking or
agitation.
The product does not freeze at subzero temperatures; it becomes more
viscous. Its effectiveness is not affected.
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES
Additol VXW 6393 is milder in smell as Additol VXW 6392 and has an
advantage in hazard qualification.
