Q1: What is the primary function of MEM-0939 in coating and ink formulations?
A: MEM-0939 is a non-ionic, anionic-stabilized silicone emulsion designed to provide surface leveling, substrate wetting, and foam control in water-based coatings, inks, and graphic arts systems. It helps reduce surface defects such as craters, orange peel, and pinholes while enhancing gloss uniformity and substrate adhesion.
Q2: Is MEM-0939 compatible with common water-based polymer systems?
A: Yes, MEM-0939 exhibits good compatibility with acrylics, vinyl acetate copolymers, styrene-acrylics, and polyurethane dispersions. Compatibility should be verified under actual formulation conditions, especially when high electrolyte content or low pH is present.
Q3: How should MEM-0939 be incorporated into a formulation?
A: It is recommended to add MEM-0939 during the let-down or post-addition stage, after the main binder and pigments have been dispersed. Stirring at moderate speed ensures homogeneous distribution without excessive shear, which could destabilize the emulsion.
Q4: Does MEM-0939 require special storage or handling conditions?
A: Store in original sealed containers at temperatures between 5 °C and 35 °C. Avoid freezing and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or high humidity. Once opened, minimize air exposure and use within recommended shelf life under controlled conditions.
