Zirconium driers are used in general with cobalt driers. They replace lead driers and a dosing of 75 % of lead is adequate.
Care must be taken when using various alkyds to establish the drying time. Experimentaltests will help the exact metering. Vatan Chemicals draws the attention of the paint manufacturers to the fact that zirconium soaps have not wetting properties
and calcium soaps must be used to ensure wetting.
According to the customers needs we produce also zirconium driers with 12,18 and 20 % metal content.
