Cerium Octoate 12% Ce CAS 56797‑01‑4 is liquid cerium 2‑ethylhexanoate auxiliary drier containing 12% cerium rare‑earth metal content. As a high‑performance rare‑earth through drier, it accelerates inner‑layer oxidative cross‑linking of alkyd paint film. Used together with cobalt‑manganese primary driers, it significantly enhances outdoor weather resistance, gloss retention and anti‑chalking capacity of exterior coatings, delays aging, cracking and powdering under long‑term ultraviolet exposure.
Cerium Octoate 12% Ce CAS 56797‑01‑4 belongs to octoate‑series rare‑earth metal carboxylate auxiliary drier for air‑drying alkyd coating systems. It cannot achieve independent drying effect and must be compounded with primary drier combinations. Ordinary auxiliary driers are limited in improving outdoor aging performance. Cerium rare‑earth components boost cross‑linking density of inner paint layer and provide anti‑aging auxiliary effect for coatings exposed to UV radiation, humidity and temperature cycles. It dissolves well in aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, has good compatibility with long‑oil and medium‑oil alkyd resins, and maintains stable catalytic activity in finished paint storage and industrial batch‑to‑batch production.
