TU 99

Developed as a leveling agent for glazed surfaces, this additive is specifically designed for water-based systems and is distinguished by its high effectiveness and long-lasting action. Thanks to its easy dispersibility, it is particularly useful in correcting surface irregularities such as depressions or pinholes.

TU 99 also provides lubricating properties that support the smooth operation of application equipment. Under many operating conditions, it can additionally act as an antifoaming agent, further extending its versatility.
The recommended dosage ranges from 0.02% to 0.2% (with an indicative optimum of 0.05%) for glazes applied by disk or spray, 0.2% to 2% for curtain or extrusion applications, and 1% to 5% when used as a leveling agent for thick screen-printing pastes.
