Finmatt 121V
Description
Finmatt 121V is a matting agent combination of organic and inorganic components for use in various coating systems. In addition to its good dispersibility, Finmatt 121V has minimal influence on the surface resistance. Even at high incorporation amounts (5 – 10%), the chemical resistance (against alcohol, hand cream, etc.) is not impaired.
Finmatt 121V is part of the soft Finmatt matting agent range and especially well-suited to obtain soft-touch/anti-slip surfaces.
Application
Parquet varnishes |
Plastic part coatings |
Furniture coatings/foils |
Glass coatings |
Foil coatings |
(Artificial)Leather-Topcoats |
Packaging inks |
Finmatt 152V
Description
Finmatt 152V is a matting agent combination of organic and inorganic components for use in various coating systems. In addition to its good dispersibility, Finmatt 152V has minimal influence on the surface resistance. Even at high incorporation amounts (5 – 10%), the chemical resistance (against alcohol, hand cream, etc.) is not impaired.
Finmatt 152V is part of the hard Finmatt matting agent range and especially well-suited to obtain surfaces with very high abrasion and scratch resistance as well as marking resistance.
Application
Parquet varnishes |
Plastic part coatings |
Furniture coatings/foils |

Finmatt S-H11
Description
Finmatt S-H11 is a polymer-modified, amorphous, micronized silica matting agent used to efficiently matt various coating systems. The particles have a slightly hydrophobic, reactive surface.
Finmatt S-H11 is especially advantageous in matting radically curing coatings.
Compared to conventional silica matting agents, it is easier to incorporate in 100% UV- coatings, has a smaller impact on viscosity and results in more transparent films while having the same matting efficiency.
Moreover, the polishing resistance of alkyd resins is increased due to the optimal integration of the matting agent.
When used in 1 pack and 2 pack water-based coatings, Finmatt S-H11 results in an improved chemical resistance even of heavily matted surfaces (5 – 10% matting agent).
Applications
Plastic part coatings |
Wood coatings/foils |
Furniture coatings/foils |
Foil coatings |
Glass coatings |
Finmatt – Soft Matting Agent Range
Description
Finmatt powders are a matting agent combination of organic and inorganic components for use in various coating systems. In addition to its good dispersibility, Finmatt has minimal influence on the binder viscosity.
Surface resistance
Even at high amounts (5 – 10%), the chemical resistance (against alcohol, hand cream, etc.) and mechanical resistance (against marking, polishing) of dull matt surfaces are not impaired.
Anti-Slip
The soft Finmatt range includes different mean particles sizes to adjust to various dry film thicknesses. The matting agents are designed for soft-touch or anti-slip surfaces, not to increase the soft-touch effect, but to best retain the soft touch given by the binder.
Applications
Parquet varnishes, floor care products |
Plastic part coatings |
Furniture coatings/foils |
Glass coatings |
Foil coatings |
Packaging inks |
(Artificial)Leather-Topcoats |
Pavement, concrete coatings |
Finmatt – Hard Matting Agent Range
Description
Finmatt powders are a matting agent combination of organic and inorganic components for use in various coating systems. In addition to its good dispersibility, Finmatt has low influence on the binder viscosity.
The hard Finmatt range includes different mean particles sizes to adjust to various dry film thicknesses. These matting agents are especially designed to achieve the best surface resistance possible.
Even at high amounts (8 – 10%), in dull matt coatings, the resistance against marking, polishing and abrasion is not impaired. In the same way, the influence on chemical surface resistance (against alcohol, coffee, hand crème, etc.) is low.
Applications
Parquet varnishes |
Plastic part coatings |
Furniture coatings/foils |
Glass coatings |
Foil coatings |
