Aluminum Octoate 7% Al CAS 3002‑63‑9 is liquid aluminum 2‑ethylhexanoate specialty drier containing 7% aluminum metal content. Different from conventional surface or through driers, its core function is to promote cross‑linking density and boost final film hardness and scratch resistance. When compounded with cobalt‑manganese primary driers, it improves mechanical performance of cured alkyd films without obvious influence on surface drying speed. It is suitable for industrial alkyd primers, hard
Aluminum Octoate 7% Al CAS 3002‑63‑9 belongs to octoate‑series metal carboxylate specialty drier for air‑drying alkyd coating systems. It cannot realize independent drying effect and must be compounded with cobalt‑manganese primary drier combinations. Many standard drier packages achieve drying performance while the final paint film still suffers insufficient hardness and poor scratch resistance. This aluminum‑based drier raises cross‑linking density of polymer network, significantly lifting surface hardness and mechanical properties. It dissolves well in aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, maintains good compatibility with long‑oil, medium‑oil and short‑oil alkyd resins, and keeps stable performance in finished paint storage and industrial batch‑to‑batch production.
