Anti-Sagging Resin 906S
Fluid SCA at 58-62% solids for high quality automotive solid colours and clearcoats.
Positioned against Nuplex 91795
Product Overview
906S is a sag control agent based on an acrylic polymer modified with a polyurea compound. It is supplied as a milky white thixotropic fluid at 58-62% solids, with structure finer than 10 microns. It raises vertical film build, orients metal pigment, stops settling and still gives excellent appearance and gloss, which is why it is written for high quality automotive solid colour paints and varnishes.
Key Benefits
- 58-62% solids, the highest of the three sag control grades
- Fineness below 10 microns protects gloss and appearance in clearcoats
- Increases achievable film thickness on vertical surfaces
- Orients metal pigment as well as controlling sag
- Prevents settling in the can

Who It Is For
- Automotive OEM and refinish coating formulators
- Producers of high-gloss industrial finishes
Problems It Solves
- Sagging that caps the film build achievable in one pass
- Metal pigment sitting at random angles and dulling the flop
- Thixotropes that cost gloss in a clearcoat
Application Scenarios
- Automotive solid colour topcoats
- Automotive clearcoat and varnish
- Metallic basecoats needing both orientation and sag control
Technical Features
- Polyurea-modified acrylic polymer with thixotropic behaviour
- Thixotropy 3-8 at 25C, 6 rpm / 60 rpm, number 4 spindle
- Amine value below 8 mg KOH/g on solids
- Solvent xylene / CAC 85/15

Recommended Dosage
All dispersant and additive dosage figures below are quoted exactly as the source data sheet quotes them. Dispersant figures are percentages on pigment weight, not on the total batch. The published values are empirical, so confirm the optimum with a dosage ladder in your own system.
| On finished formulation | 8-12% |
Use Guide
- Dose at 8-12% on the finished formula.
- Because the structure is finer than 10 microns, it can be used in clearcoat without the haze a coarser SCA would bring.
- Store below 30C; shelf life is 12 months.
Quality Control On Your Side
- Sag bar test at the target build on a vertical panel
- Gloss and distinctness of image on cured clearcoat panels
- Flop measurement on metallic panels
How It Compares With The Alternatives
Technical comparison against other ways of solving the same problem. Nothing here is a performance claim against a named commercial product.
| 908R | 908R is a hydroxy-functional paste that crosslinks into 2K polyurethane; 906S is a higher solids fluid with finer structure. |
| 904R | 904R is specified for metal pigment orientation and CAB compatibility; 906S is the high gloss automotive grade. |
| Fumed silica | Keeps gloss and distinctness of image that silica loading tends to cost. |
