Non-toxic zirconium Octoate. Acts as a drier.
Zirconium Octoate is a clean liquid without suspended matter.
Zirconium Octoate improves brightness, elasticity, color retention and takes longer time to dry under high humidity or low temperature conditions as compared to lead.
In comparison to linoleate, phthalates and naphthenates, it provides better color, odor, stability and viscosity.
Zirconium Octoate shows lower price level in comparison to synthetic acids and metallic salts like those prepared with iso-acids as well as neo-acids.
Enables high metal concentration with superior quality and reproducibility.
Zirconium Octoate prevents lead-related inconveniences such as haze in varnishes, leafing losses on aluminum paints and sulfide stains on paints used in industrial environments.
Suitable for children's articles paints.
Recommended dosage is 0.20-0.80 w/w% zirconium metal on resin NV.

Zirconium is a most useful & efficient auxiliary drier.
Zirconium like lead serves as a through drier & is generally used in combination with Cobalt, Manganese & Calcium.
Unlike Lead, Zirconium is a poor pigment wetting & dispersing agent.

Zirconium is an active cross-linking agent & as such improves hardness of stoved films as well as their adhesions.

Zirconium is not as effective in phenolic resin based media it is recommended as a catalyst for epoxy esters.
Use of Lead driers in combination with Zirconium is to be avoided totally.

Metallic carboxylates, metal salts of carboxylic acids, have industrial applications in;
Drier/Additive for paints, coatings and inks; Driers are substances put into paint to make dry quickly.
They are metallic salts of low-molecular-weight (chiefly C8) fatty acids or naphthenic acids.
Naphthenic acid is a complex of carboxylic acids( various low-molecular-weight fatty acids believed to have cyclopentane ring mainly).
Hydrocarbon parts take oxygen in air and metals act as catalyst to speed up the oxidative coating. Cobalt is the most useful.
Zirconium Octoate is a powerful oxidation catalyst and can keep whiteness.
Auxiliary metals should be added to prevent surface wrinkling after drying.
Primary metals which can replace for cobalt are zirconium, lead, cerium and iron and auxiliary metals are like calcium, manganese, barium, zinc, lithium.

Catalyst for chemical reactions (polymerization, esterification, oxidation, condensation, hydrogenation and other reactions) and catalystic special applications in lubricant and grease additives, fuel combustion additives to enhance and stabilize the performance of fuels.

Rubber Adhesion Promoters ; Metallic naphthenates, neodecanoates, resinates, boroneodecanoates, and stearates are widely used in rubber industry especially in the radial tire industry to promote adhesion between the rubber wire coat compound and the brass-coated steel belt.
Cobalt carboxylates are most widely used.

Polyurethane catalysts: Tin, bismuth, mercury, zinc carboxylates and their blends with amines are used as catalysts in the production of rigid, flexible polyurethanes and elastomers.

Unsaturated Polyester Promoters: Cobalt, Potassium, Copper, and Zinc carboxylates (mainly octoates and naphthenates) are used as initiators/promoters for curing of polyester resin

Zirconium driers become widely used due to legislation restriction for lead limitation
Zirconium octoate is an efficient through/auxiliary drier which is generally used in combination with cobalt and calcium
Unlike lead, zirconium is a poor pigment wetting and dispersing agent, therefore the combination with calcium is necessary

Zirconium Octoate is a very efficient auxiliary drier.
Zirconium Octoate is use in paint media with Cobalt and other auxiliary driers to boost up the performance of paints and varnishes.
Zirconium Octoate is the best replacement of Lead octoate when used in combination with Cerium or Calcium octoate in the lead free paint systems.

Zirconium Octoate shows goods gloss retention, colour, and colour retention compared to Lead, but does not perform as well under adverse drying conditions of low temperature and high humidity.
Zirconium Octoate is the most useful drierfor water resistant finishes due to its stabilizing effect on the ester linkages inthe media.

As a strong cross-linking agent, Zirconium improves the hardness and gives better adhesion.
Because of its abrasion resistant characteristics it is used in wire enamels.
In alkyd amino combinations, Zirconium Octoate has been proved to be the best auxiliary drier, which resists absorption and improves the performance of other driers used in combination with it.
Zirconium Octoate has a good effect in epoxy esters too. But in the phenolic resin media, Zirconium has not shown any significant effect.
Zirconium Octoate is widely used in white paints in combination with Cobalt and Cerium octoate as it reduces the yellowing tendency of the white film and retains the whiteness by protecting the film from any weather effects.
Lead octoate is not recommended inthe white paint when Zirconium Octoate is used as an auxiliary drier.

Lead Octoate is one of the auxiliary driers also called as through drier.Lead octoate is used as active or top drier.
Zirconium Octoate promotes hard, through drying throughout the entire film and also promotes flexibility.
In alkyd finishes where fume proof finishes are not specified. Lead is used in combination with Cobalt and Calcium octoate, It is always advisable to use Lead Octoate after the addition of Calcium octoate to eliminate the possibility of reaction of lead with unreacted phthalic anhydride in alkyd media, which could form lead phathlate.
In tong oil alkyd medium 0.05 to 2.00% of lead is the usual amount required in conjunction with Cobalt and Calcium soaps.
In outside paints and floorfinishes as well as in banking enamels Lead octoate is used with Manganese drier to produce a tough and hard film.
In tong oil phenolic resin, lead promotes drying. It is also used in Polyurethane finishes as major auxiliary drier.
Lead octoate is the most important auxiliary drier especially in applications where drying is required at low temperatures (less than 10 deg. centigrade.)
Different metal concentrations of lead drier such as 18,24,32,36 percentage are used by the paint industry.
