Watertight Coating Agents

Crosslinkable, film-forming silicone products which achieve the required effects even with relatively low coating rates (from about 10 g/m2) are used to produce watertight coatings. 

The viscous, spreadable compounds which have to be supplemented by a catalyst and - depending on product and formulation - a crosslinking agent, crosslink quickly when heated to form insoluble coatings resistant to washing and cleaning. 

In addition to silicone solutions using organic solvents, for some time now silicone emulsions that can be thickened have been used and these are frequently used in combination with further dispersions of plastics.
