Product Description

General description:

Chemical Formula: C32H64O8Zr

Zirconium Octoate is a very efficient auxiliary drier. It is use in paint media with Cobalt and other auxiliary driers to boost up the performance of paints and varnishes. Zirconium Octoate is the most useful drier for water resistant finishes due to its stabilizing effect on the ester linkages in the media.

Application & Usage:

  • Effective auxiliary drier used in paint media along with cobalt and other auxiliary driers to boost up the performance of paints and varnishes.
  • Most useful drier for water resistant finishes.
  • A strong cross-linking agent.

Enhance Paint and Coatings Performance

Zirconium Octoate accelerates the surface drying of alkyd and oil-based paint formulations, making it highly valued for industrial paints, surface coatings, and varnishes. Its stable formulation ensures a hard, consistent film and seamless compatibility with other catalysts, improving productivity and finish quality.


Safe, Reliable, and Easy to Use

This product is considered non-toxic and non-hazardous under recommended usage and storage conditions. Its pale yellow to amber viscous liquid is easy to handle, exhibits a mild characteristic odor, and has a neutral to slightly acidic pH. It is delivered in durable HDPE drums to preserve product integrity.


Simple Storage and Extended Shelf Life

Zirconium Octoate remains stable for up to 12 months when stored tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated place. This ensures long-term reliability for paint and coating manufacturers seeking quality consistency and efficiency in their production processes.

FAQs of Zirconium Octoate:


Q: How should Zirconium Octoate be stored for optimal stability?

A: Store Zirconium Octoate in tightly closed HDPE drums in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and moisture. This prevents degradation and ensures its stability and effectiveness for up to 12 months.

Q: What is the main benefit of using Zirconium Octoate in paint and coatings?

A: The primary benefit is its ability to accelerate surface drying in alkyd and oil-based paints, resulting in faster production turnaround and a hard, durable film finish. It also enhances the overall performance and consistency of surface coatings.

Q: Where is Zirconium Octoate typically applied?

A: It is widely used as a drier in industrial and decorative paints, surface coatings, inks, and varnishes, particularly in formulations that require rapid surface drying and enhanced film hardness.

Q: When should Zirconium Octoate be added during the manufacturing process?

A: Zirconium Octoate is usually incorporated during the blending stage of paint or coating formulations after other ingredients have been mixed to achieve the desired drying and performance characteristics.

Q: Is Zirconium Octoate safe for use and transport?

A: Yes, when used as recommended, it is non-toxic and not classified as hazardous for transport, simplifying logistics and handling. However, it should not be released into the environment.

Q: What solvents is Zirconium Octoate compatible with?

A: Zirconium Octoate is soluble in organic solvents such as mineral spirits but is insoluble in water. This makes it highly compatible with most alkyd resins and oils commonly used in the coatings industry.
