Barium Octoate 12.5% Ba CAS 2457‑01‑4 is liquid barium 2‑ethylhexanoate auxiliary drier containing 12.5% barium metal content. As a typical lead‑free through drier, it mainly promotes deep‑layer cross‑linking curing of thick alkyd films. When combined with cobalt‑manganese primary driers, it boosts film hardness, water resistance and chemical resistance, reduces film brittleness. It is widely used for heavy‑duty industrial alkyd primers, anti‑corrosive coatings and thick‑film protective alkyd sy
Barium Octoate 12.5% Ba CAS 2457‑01‑4 belongs to octoate‑series metal carboxylate auxiliary drier for air‑drying alkyd coating systems. It cannot realize independent drying effect and must be compounded with cobalt‑manganese primary drier combinations. It focuses on through‑curing of thick paint layers, solving incomplete inner‑layer curing defects of heavy‑duty thick‑film alkyd coatings. It enhances cross‑linking density of cured films, improves water resistance, solvent resistance and surface hardness. It dissolves freely in aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, maintains good compatibility with long‑oil, medium‑oil and partial short‑oil alkyd resins, keeps stable performance in finished paint storage and industrial batch‑to‑batch production.
