Product Description
DOWSIL™ RSN-0806 Resin is a silanol-functional silicone binder resin supplied as a 50% solids, solvent-borne solution for high-temperature coating formulations. It is designed primarily for colored baking enamels used on space heaters, stoves, and similar equipment. The resin provides stability and high-temperature performance and may be used alone or blended with DOWSIL™ RSN-0805 Resin to enhance coating flexibility.
Key features
- High-temperature coating binder: Supports coating formulations intended for service at temperatures up to 538°C (1000°F).
- Silanol-functional resin: Provides a reactive silicone binder for heat-cured coating systems.
- Formulation versatility: Can be used alone or blended with DOWSIL™ RSN-0805 Resin to enhance film flexibility.
- Pre-catalyzed formulation: Supplied with catalyst to support heat-curing applications.
Applications / Suitable for
- Colored baking enamels
- High-temperature coatings for space heaters
- High-temperature coatings for stoves and similar equipment
