Low‑VOC Iron Octoate 8% Fe CAS 7321‑53‑1 is low‑volatile liquid iron 2‑ethylhexanoate primary drier containing 8% iron metal content. This low‑VOC grade adopts low‑volatility diluent to avoid excessive VOC increment for high‑solids systems. As cobalt‑free main drier, it triggers oxidative curing of alkyd resins with relatively low discoloration tendency for pale‑colored films. When compounded with zinc, barium or strontium auxiliary driers, it realizes coordinated surface drying and deep‑layer t
Low‑VOC Iron Octoate 8% Fe CAS 7321‑53‑1 belongs to octoate‑series low‑VOC metal carboxylate primary drier for air‑drying alkyd coating systems. It acts as cobalt‑free oxidative main drier for high‑solids alkyd formulations. Conventional iron octoate diluted with ordinary hydrocarbon solvent will raise total VOC value and break emission indicators of high‑solid coatings. This variant uses low‑volatility carrier to restrict additional volatile contribution. It shall be used together with anti‑skinning and through‑curing auxiliary driers to balance surface drying rate and inner‑layer curing completeness. It shows good miscibility with high‑viscosity high‑solids alkyd resins, keeps stable catalytic activity in finished paint storage and industrial batch‑to‑batch production.
