AgeSin® AG-D9302C – Silicone‑Modified Polyacrylate Anti‑Graffiti Additive

Equivalent to: BYK‑SILCLEAN 3700


AG‑D9302C is a silicone‑modified polyacrylate with hydroxy functionality, specifically designed to deliver lotus‑leaf effect and superior anti‑marker wiping performance.


Key advantages:

  • Silicone‑modified polyacrylate backbone – Excellent compatibility with most resin systems

  • Lotus‑leaf effect – Water and dirt bead up and roll off the surface

  • Anti‑marker wiping performance – Resists permanent markers and graffiti sprays

  • Hydroxy‑functional – Crosslinks into the coating network for permanence

  • Increases surface slipperiness – Reduces friction and improves scratch resistance

  • Excellent compatibility – Works in clearcoats without affecting transparency

  • Recommended dosage: 2.5 – 5.0% on total formulation

  • Flash point: >100°C

Best for: High‑end automotive clearcoats, furniture coatings, architectural topcoats requiring easy‑clean surfaces and anti‑graffiti protection.


AgeSin® AG-D9750R – High‑Solids Easy‑to‑Clean Additive

Equivalent to: BYK‑SILCLEAN 3720


AG‑D9750R features 50% active content – double the solids of competing products – enabling lower addition levels while maintaining superior performance.


Key advantages:

  • Higher active content (50%) – Lower dosage required vs. BYK‑SILCLEAN 3720

  • DPMA solvent – Environmentally friendlier solvent system

  • Water‑borne & solvent‑borne compatible – Versatile for multiple coating technologies

  • Excellent water contact angle – Superior hydrophobicity at 5% addition

  • Good compatibility in varnish – Maintains optical clarity

  • Anti‑graffiti & tape release properties – Dual functionality for easy cleaning

  • Recommended dosage: 1.0 – 10.0% on total formulation

  • Flash point: >70°C

Best for: Water‑borne and solvent‑borne topcoats, industrial finishes, and applications where higher active content enables lower overall additive load.

Application Guidelines


Incorporation

All AgeSin® AG-D products can be incorporated by pre‑dilution with the same solvent used in the coating system, or added post‑addition. For best results, dilute to 10–20% with xylene or the system solvent before adding to the formulation.


Recommended Dosage

ProductRecommended Addition
AG-D90000.5 – 3.0%
AG-D9001B1.0 – 5.0%
AG-D9302C2.5 – 5.0%

Processing Tips

  • Two‑pack systems (low‑temperature baking): Use acrylic resin with high hydroxyl value and prolong bake time to improve anti‑graffiti property.

  • Compatibility testing: Always evaluate compatibility in clear varnish before full‑scale use.

  • Stir evenly: Ensure thorough mixing for optimal performance.
