Prevent plate-out in plasticized vinyls
Lower the gloss on vinyl film finishes
...with SYLOID® MICRON-SIZED SILICA GEL • Color build-up on processing rolls or dies can mean costly down-time, wasted sheeting or wire covering, or unwanted color variations. Now you can change colors without that plate-out problem, by adding 2 % or less of Syloid 72 to your mix. Each particle of Syloid 72 has millions of internal pores which hold the deposits from the rolls or dies, letting you go from color to color without a trace of transfer. Adding Syloid 72 also controls crocking, plasticizer sweatout, blocking, and yields a smooth, dry hand every time. Send for bulletin #PA 87-266!
