Orgasol® powder: A Texturing Agent in Furniture and Appliance Markets
Aesthetics is the main selling point for wood furniture and electronic appliance manufacturers.
Wood Furniture: Consumers are looking for wood that is smooth to the touch with an even satin gloss. Orgasol® powder is one of the best solution to achieve smooth texture and gloss. The spherical shape and uniform particle size of Orgasol® powder creates a soft and silky texture. Adding Orgasol® powder at low levels (< 2%) has no impact on varnish transparency and enables good mar resistance. Orgasol® powder can also be used as a topcoat for tables, doors, or windows to improve scratch resistance. Electronic Appliances: Orgasol® powder is applied to plastic or steel parts used in automotive assemblies and electronic appliances. Some manufacturers use Orgasol® powder as an additive to create a smooth or textured finish. Scratch resistance is a second benefit to using Orgasol® powder for electronic appliances. Orgasol® powder is easily dispersed in polyurethane, epoxy or acrylic formulations used on furniture and appliance surfaces. Orgasol® powder can be used in solvent based, water based, or 100% solid UV curable formulations. Recommended grades: Orgasol® 2001 UD NAT1, Orgasol® 2001 EXD NAT1, Orgasol® 2002 D NAT1, Orgasol® 2002 ES3 NAT3, Orgasol® 2002 ES4 NAT3, Orgasol® 2002 ES5 NAT3 and Orgasol® 2002 ES6 NAT3 If you need further information on Orgasol® powder properties for furniture and electronic appliance coatings, please feel free to contact us or download the “Industrial Coating Technical Brochure.”
