SPHERILEX® DP-0110

SPHERILEX® DP-0110 has the smallest particle size within the SPHERILEX® family of products, making it ideal for thin film applications or systems where smaller and more transparent particles are preferred. In particular, SPHERILEX® DP-0110 is ideal for achieving burnish- and scrubresistant satin and eggshell finishes, and, when used in combination with silica matting agents, can enable deep matte, natural-looking wood coatings by improving the scratch, burnish, and mar resistance of the coating. It can also significantly improve the hardness of coil coatings.
