ETERSOL 6916 Waterborne Acrylic Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are the primary application areas for ETERSOL 6916?

A: ETERSOL 6916 is widely used in waterborne industrial coatings, including metal primers, topcoats for appliances and general industrial equipment, and protective finishes where low VOC content, good film formation, and balanced hardness-flexibility are required.


Q2: How does ETERSOL 6916 perform in terms of water resistance and corrosion protection?

A: As a hydrophobic acrylic dispersion, ETERSOL 6916 contributes to improved water resistance in cured films. When formulated with appropriate pigments, inhibitors, and crosslinkers, it supports robust corrosion protection performance—particularly in pretreated steel and aluminum substrates.


Q3: Can ETERSOL 6916 be blended with other resins or additives?

A: Yes, ETERSOL 6916 demonstrates good compatibility with common waterborne resins such as polyurethane dispersions (PUDs), epoxy emulsions, and melamine-formaldehyde crosslinkers. It also accepts standard aqueous additives—including defoamers, rheology modifiers, and surfactants—though compatibility testing is recommended for each specific formulation.


Q4: What is the typical solids content and viscosity range?

A: ETERSOL 6916 is supplied as an aqueous dispersion with solids content generally in the range of 45–50% by weight and a Brookfield viscosity typically below 500 mPa·s (at 25°C, spindle #2, 20 rpm), making it suitable for conventional spray and roller application methods.
