MOLYKOTE 7415
Harmonization Code : 3909.20.00.90 | Amino-resins, phenolic resins and polyurethanes, in primary forms : Melamine resins : Other

Main features
- Molykote D-7405, D-7409, and D-7620 Anti-Friction Coatings
- Low Evaporation Rate
- PTFE- and PFAS-Free Formulation
Product Description
MOLYKOTE® 7415 Thinner is an organic solvent specifically formulated for diluting and cleaning select MOLYKOTE® Anti-Friction Coatings (AFCs). Composed primarily of N-Ethyl-2-pyrrolidone, this transparent, yellowish liquid allows operators to finely adjust the application viscosity of solid lubricant coatings prior to spraying or brushing. Its carefully tailored evaporation profile ensures stable viscosity and smooth application without premature flash-off.
Key features
- Controlled evaporation: Features a low evaporation rate and a high boiling point (213°C), preventing the coating from drying too quickly during complex or prolonged application processes.
- Precise viscosity control: Enables users to thin concentrated anti-friction coatings down to the exact desired viscosity for optimal film thickness and surface finish.
- Clean formulation: Formulated without intentional polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
Applications / Suitable for
- Specific diluting and cleaning solvent for MOLYKOTE® D-7405 Anti-Friction Coating
- Specific diluting and cleaning solvent for MOLYKOTE® D-7409 Anti-Friction Coating
- Specific diluting and cleaning solvent for MOLYKOTE® D-7620 Anti-Friction Coating
