SPACERITE S3 is a special purpose white hydrated alumina powder produced through a proprietary precipitation process that closely controls particle-size distributions. SPACERITE S3 has a narrow particle size distribution and low specific gravity making it an excellent extender for applications where low oil absorption and high loading capability is required. SPACERITE S3 can replace other extenders providing enhanced performance and benefits. It is chemically inert and will not impact gloss or hue. SPACERITE S3 is easily dispersed and provides excellent gloss retention and weatherability. It reduces yellowing and improves photoinitiator efficiency. SPACERITE S3 is an inert pigment extender that can be used up to 5% without impacting color or gloss. It is suitable for applications where high brightness, low oil absorption and excellent dispersion characteristics are important.
