LOXANOL® PL 5060 EL

Highly efficient plasticizer for aqueous polymer dispersions in gloss paints, elastomeric coatings and wood coatings.

LOXANOL PL 5060 EL is a highly efficient, water‑miscible plasticizer and coalescent designed for aqueous polymer dispersions used in water‑based coatings. It improves film formation at low temperatures, reduces film brittleness, and enhances flexibility, toughness, and durability of the dried coating film. It is well suited for formulations where balanced mechanical properties, application performance, and sustainability credentials are required.
