Allnex SETAL 90173 SS-50 Polyester Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application area for SETAL 90173 SS-50?

A: SETAL 90173 SS-50 is a solvent-based unsaturated polyester resin designed primarily for high-performance coil coating and metal decorating systems, where excellent gloss retention, hardness development, and resistance to weathering and chemical exposure are required.


Q2: Is SETAL 90173 SS-50 compatible with common crosslinkers used in coil coatings?

A: Yes, it is formulated to be compatible with standard amino resins such as melamine-formaldehyde types, and can also be effectively cured with peroxide initiators in free-radical polymerization systems, depending on the specific formulation and cure schedule.


Q3: How does SETAL 90173 SS-50 contribute to film performance in cured coatings?

A: It provides strong adhesion to pretreated metal substrates, good flexibility during forming operations, and contributes to a durable, glossy finish with enhanced resistance to humidity, UV exposure, and light chemical splashes typical of architectural and appliance applications.


Q4: What solvent system is used in SETAL 90173 SS-50?

A: It is supplied in a proprietary aromatic/aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent blend optimized for viscosity control, application stability, and compatibility with other coil coating components — no ketones or chlorinated solvents are present.
