SILRES BS 1310 (Water Repellent Liquid Silicone)
SILRES® BS 1310 is a solvent-free, water-dilutable emulsion of a polysiloxane modified with a functional silicone resin. This special formulation is designed for use as a performance-enhancing additive in the production of water-based wall coatings and primers. The product significantly increases the water repellency and water resistance of coatings, while also improving workability and anti-blocking (non-stick) properties.
Key Features and Benefits
- High Water Repellency: Provides excellent water beading effect and water resistance in facade coatings and primers.
- Workability: Facilitates the spreading and processing of the material on the surface during application.
- Anti-Blocking Effect: Helps prevent coatings from sticking to each other after drying.
- Solvent-Free Composition: Has an environmentally friendly formulation fully compatible with water-based systems.
Application Areas
SILRES® BS 1310 is particularly preferred as an additive in the following building chemicals and coating systems:
- Silicone resin-based plasters and silicate plasters
- Exterior paints and coatings
- Topcoat paints
- Whitewash emulsions and high-fill emulsion coatings
Usage and Application Details
SILRES® BS 1310 can be added undiluted to water-based wall coatings and primers during or after production. For optimal performance, the recommended usage rate is between 1% and 3% of the total formulation weight. The product yields effective results in silicone resin emulsion paints and plasters, as well as in silicate emulsion paints.
