Key benefits

  • low smoke and odor development of the completely cured coating at temperature exposure
  • curing at ambient temperature by catalysis and entering of humidity via a hydrolysis-/condensation reaction
  • low viscous methoxy-functional silicone resin
  • SILIKOPHEN® AC 1000 is perfectly suitable for the formulation of one component hydrophobic agents and of fire protection impregnation for wood.

Processing instructions

Use with metallic pigments and special formulations to obtain continuous heat-resistance of up to 650 °C.

Surface pre-treatment: Degreasing and shot-blasting is recommended.

The used raw materials should have a water content < 0.05%.

In combination with alcoxy-functional resins, we do not recommend the use of alcohols or hydroxy-functional glycol ethers as solvents.

Handling & storage

Contact with tin (e.g. with metal containers) will shorten the storage stability. Keep dry. Contact with moisture causes gelation.

When stored in an original unopened packaging, the product has a shelf life of 36 months from the date of manufacture.
