Hong Kong, China – January 31, 2016 – BASF recently launched Efka® PB 2744, a defoamer for fast and effective deaeration of 100% solids coating systems.

It also enhances leveling and surface smoothness while improving stability under sheer stress and storage conditions. 

Efka® PB 2744 is especially designed for industrial flooring formulations, which have to comply with latest construction norms, as it is very low in VOC and does not have any hazard labeling.

Efka PB 2744 demonstrates outstanding performance in 2-Pack PUR systems for flooring applications as well as excellent results in customer specific epoxy flooring formulations. Further application areas include ultra-high solids industrial applications and UV applications
