Short Oil Non Drying (98/60) (SNDA)
Short Oil Non Drying (98/60) Stand & Detail Alkyd (SNDA) is a specialized alkyd resin characterized by a high oil content of approximately 98% and a solids content near 60%. This composition results in a resin that forms highly flexible, non-drying films, ideal for applications requiring long-lasting elasticity and resistance to cracking. SNDA resins are commonly used in coatings where a soft, flexible finish is needed rather than a hard, fast-drying film. It is suitable for protective and decorative coatings in industrial and specialty applications.
Uses
Primary Uses
Protective Coatings
- Used in flexible coatings for metal, wood, and plastics where movement and vibration resistance are essential.
- Suitable for protective primers and maintenance paints that require elasticity and weather resistance.
Decorative Coatings
- Applied in architectural finishes needing a soft, satin, or semi-gloss appearance with high flexibility.
Adhesives and Sealants
- Incorporated in formulations where flexibility and strong bonding are required, such as in elastomeric adhesives.
Textile and Leather Coatings
- Used in coatings for textiles and leather to impart softness and durability without hardening.
Secondary Uses
Marine Applications
- Suitable for flexible coatings on boats and marine equipment subject to continuous flexing and harsh conditions.
Printing Inks
- Employed in specialty inks requiring flexibility and resistance to cracking on flexible substrates.
Plastic Coatings
Used in flexible plastic coatings and films where non-drying characteristics prolong durability and performance.
