Satintone 5-HB is an ultra-fine particle calcined aluminium silicate that provides excellent optical properties and high tint strength. With a median particle size of 0.8 um and GE brightness of 91%, Satintone 5-HB results in brighter finishes with cleaner colors when used. Its high opacity allows for TiO2 extension and reduction in various formulations. Satintone 5-HB is widely used as an extender and filler in paints, coatings, polymers and composites due to its fine particle size, low residue and superior dispersion characteristics. Some key benefits of using Satintone 5-HB include whiter end products, better hiding power, improved physical properties and cost savings.
