SCV-8018 is a base coat emulsion for architectural coating formulations. It combines high pigment-loading capacity with good breathability. In addition, it offers excellent resistance to water penetration and efflorescence.
The product uses selected additives and specialty functional monomers. Its optimized emulsion particle size helps improve primer penetration and adhesion to the substrate. Meanwhile, excellent calcium ion stability and mechanical stability support its use in coating formulations.
Improved Substrate Penetration and Adhesion
SCV-8018 features an emulsion particle size of 0.1–0.2 μm. The product design specifically focuses on improving primer penetration and substrate adhesion.
For manufacturers developing base coats, these properties make SCV-8018 a relevant raw material to evaluate. However, formulators should confirm performance with their selected substrates and complete coating systems.
High Pigment Loading and Good Breathability
SCV-8018 offers high pigment-loading capacity. Therefore, manufacturers can consider it for pigmented base coat formulations.
At the same time, the product provides good breathability. This combination addresses two of the application characteristics highlighted in the product document.
When developing a formulation, evaluate the pigment package alongside the binder and other ingredients. Then confirm the coating’s appearance and performance through application trials.
Resistance to Water Penetration and Efflorescence
The SCV-8018 base coat emulsion offers excellent resistance to water penetration and efflorescence. These properties form an important part of its application profile.
In addition to these resistance properties, the product supports substrate adhesion and breathability. As a result, formulators can evaluate several base coat requirements within one emulsion platform.
Final coating performance will depend on the complete formulation, substrate condition and application process. Therefore, testing should reflect the intended use.
Calcium Ion Stability and Mechanical Stability
SCV-8018 provides excellent calcium ion stability and mechanical stability.
The listed calcium ion stability result shows no separation, sedimentation or flocculation after 48 hours. This gives formulators a specific reference when reviewing the product’s technical profile.
Although the document also highlights mechanical stability, it does not provide a numerical test result for that property. For detailed test methods, contact the supplier.
Typical Technical Properties
| Property | Typical Value |
|---|---|
| Appearance | Milky-white liquid with a slight blue tint |
| Solids content | 46.0–48.0% |
| Viscosity at 23 ± 1°C | 500–2,000 mPa·s |
| pH | 7.0–9.0 |
| Calcium ion stability | No separation, sedimentation or flocculation after 48 hours |
| Particle size | 0.1–0.2 μm |
| Minimum film-forming temperature | 20°C |
These values summarize the supplied product document. For viscosity testing, confirm the instrument settings and measurement procedure with the supplier before comparing results.
Formulation Evaluation
SCV-8018 is an emulsion raw material for base coat formulations. Manufacturers should evaluate it within their complete formula before moving to production.
Start by reviewing the intended substrate, pigment loading and application conditions. Next, assess adhesion, breathability, water penetration resistance and efflorescence resistance in the finished coating.
Also consider the listed minimum film-forming temperature of 20°C during formulation development. This value describes the emulsion and does not, by itself, establish the application temperature range of a finished paint.
Packaging and Storage
SCW Polymer supplies SCV-8018 in 50 kg plastic drums or IBC containers.
Store the product indoors in a dry, ventilated area and protect it from direct sunlight. In addition, maintain a temperature of 5–35°C during transport and storage.
The specified storage life is six months from the packaging date under the recommended conditions. For handling instructions and precautions, refer to the product’s material safety data sheet.
