Primal SB-200 -- Technical Data Sheet - The Dow Chemical Company

PRIMAL SB-200 Emulsion
Description
PRIMAL SB-200, medium/soft acrylic emulsion binder, has been designed to impart superior performance
properties to aqueous basecoats. It is particularly suitable for formulating basecoats for splits, corrected grain
shoe upper and furniture leathers. PRIMAL SB-200 is best utilized in basecoats for these leathers when combined
with PRIMAL SCL-400 and (or) PRIMAL SCL-371 to help deliver a unique balance of performance and aesthetics.
Basecoats formulated with PRIMAL SB-200 will display the following application properties:
• Excellent fill and coverage
• Good wet rub resistance
• Good wet flex performance
• Excellent print retention
• Very good plate release
• Very good resistance to “cut through” during embossing
• Very low surface tack
