• Borchi OXY - Coat 1310
Borchi OXY - Coat 1310 is a new product in our patented line of
curing additives. It can be used in all coatings oxidatively drying
resins, e.g. alkyds, vegetable oils, epoxy esters, polybutadiene.
• Borchi Gol 1376
Borchi Gol 1376 is an effective flow promoter with broad compatibility - including high polarity systems. It eliminates surface
defects such as craters, pinholes and spray structures and is thermal resistance up to 300° C. The key applications are BADGE-
(Bisphenol-A diglycidyl ether) & BPA (Bisphenol-A) free Can
Coatings.
