Manalox 240
With its controlled reactivity, this solution of polymeric oxoaluminum octoate in high-boiling ink oil solvent can be added to most hot varnishes without the necessity of further dilution.
This highly stable product causes the gelling reaction to go more slowly…for example, at temperatures of 160-180° C, complete gelling will take between 30-60 minutes.
Manalox 240 does not produce any volatile byproduct alcohols during the gelling reaaction.
