XG610B Matting Additive Formulation
The reaction percentage of this matting agent with Epoxy Resin is 1:2 and it is suitable for 3–15% gloss at 60°.
Select the gloss range you need according to the table below:
| Dosage | Gloss range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| < 3 % | No matting will achieve | Dosage less than 3% is not recommended |
| 3 % | 10-15% | – |
| 4 % | 5-10% | – |
| 5 % | 3-5% | – |
| > 5 % | – | Dosage more than 5% might damage the paint surface. |
- The above table is not certain; the actual gloss also depends on the resin.
- The epoxy equivalent should be in the range of 750–800. Gloss will change according to the epoxy equivalent.

Hybrid Polyester resin (50-50)
Hybrid Polyester resin (60-40)
For example, if it is intended to achieve (5 to 15%) gloss in a formulation with Hybrid Polyester Resin (60-40), bellow steps should be taken:
- Total amount of resin: 60 Wt%
- Dosage of matting agent: %4 (according to desired gloss)
- Type of resin: resin (CP-6311)
- Consider 8 units of epoxy to react with 4 units of matting agent
- The remaining amount of total resin is % 52 (60-8=52)
- Residual amount of polyester and epoxy resin will be 31.2 and 20.8, respectively.
- Therefore, the total amount of epoxy % 8.28 (% 8 reaction with matting agent + % 20.8= % 28.8 ).
