Expanded Thermoplastic Microspheres CAS 38742-70-0 DE Type Anti-slip Coating Additive
Product Overview
DE Type Expanded Thermoplastic Microspheres CAS 38742-70-0 are pre-expanded hollow polymer microspheres developed for anti-slip coating systems. Featuring intact closed-cell hollow structure and suitable particle rigidity, the microspheres form micro uneven texture on coating surfaces to enhance friction coefficient and deliver stable anti-slip performance.
Apart from anti-slip function, it acts as ultra-lightweight filler to lower coating density, reduce raw material consumption and improve thermal insulation performance. The product exhibits great dispersibility and can be compatible with solvent-based, solvent-free and two-component coating systems. It will not cause obvious damage to coating hardness, adhesion and weather resistance, serving as an ideal multifunctional additive for various industrial anti-slip coatings.
Core Features
- Pre-expanded dry powder, ready to useNo secondary heating expansion required; directly added into coatings to simplify production workflow.
- Excellent anti-slip effectForm micro bump structure on coating surface, effectively improve surface friction and anti-slip property.
- Ultra-lightweight closed-cell structureRealize lightweight modification of coatings while providing thermal insulation and sound absorption performance.
- Good dispersion performanceFree-flowing powder, easy to mix evenly with coating raw materials under moderate stirring.
- Wide formula compatibilityCompatible with epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic and other common anti-slip coating resins.
- Stable coating appearanceLess likely to produce pinholes and bubbles, maintain flat coating surface under reasonable formulation.
