High Solids Hollow pigment for higher solids coatings.If you are currently using a hollow plastic pigment in your paper or paperboard coating formulation, here's news about a high solids breakthrough that can help you increase operating rates and/or improve sheet gloss and opacity Refers to being "opaque," which means to prevent light from shining through. For example, in an image editing program, the opacity level for some function might range from completely transparent (0) to completely opaque (100). . HSB (Hue Saturation Brightness) A color space that is similar to the way an artist mixes colors by adding black and white to pure pigments. The pigments are the hues (H), measured in a circle from 0 to 359 degrees (0=red, 60=yellow, 120=green, 180=cyan, 240=blue, 3042NA High Solids Hollow Plus Binder is the product of advanced Dow processing technology which combines Dow's hollow sphere plastic pigment and styrene/butadiene (S/B S/B Should Be S/B Seen By (UK medical reporting) S/B Standby S/B swing/by S/B Signal to Background (ratio) S/B Switch Board S/B Sand Blast S/B Soil/Bentonite ) latex binder chemistries to create a unique pigment/binder combination. The proprietary manufacturing process used to produce HSB 3042NA High Solids Hollow Plus Binder yields more than just a physical combination of pigment and binder. It results in a product with a solids level of 42 percent--16 percent higher solids than Dow's HS 3000NA hollow sphere plastic pigment and higher than any other hollow product in the industry! While the actual solids increase in your coating formulation will vary depending on the level of plastic pigment you use, typical formulations based on HSB 3042NA High Solids Hollow Plus Binder have about two percent higher solids than other formulations. Faster Operating Rates High solids makes drying easier because there is less moisture to remove after the coating is applied. As a result, you can operate at higher speeds while maintaining final moisture at your target levels. And that means you can obtain increased capacity from existing capital. Improved Gloss and Opacity Higher solids coatings offer greater coating holdout hold·out n. One that withholds agreement or consent upon which progress is contingent. Noun 1. holdout - a negotiator who hopes to gain concessions by refusing to come to terms; "their star pitcher was a holdout for six , for increased sheet gloss. This in turn can reduce calender CALENDER. An almanac. Julius Caesar ordained that the Roman year should consist of 365 days, except every fourth year, which should contain 366, the additional day to be reckoned by counting the twenty-fourth day of February (which was the 6th of the calends of March) twice. pressure requirements, resulting in improved opacity. The hollow sphere configuration and particle size distribution The particle size distribution[1] ("PSD") of a powder, or granular material, or particles dispersed in fluid, is a list of values or a mathematical function that defines the relative amounts of particles present, sorted according to size. of Dow's new plastic pigment/binder combination contributes to even easier glossing performance and a smoother coated sheet.
