* This formulation is just a guide and it includes the main ingredients of pigmented  
   coatings. The drying time for the formulations prepared using Mordry 410 remained
   constant after 2 months from the preparation while those prepared using Cobalt
   Octoate suffered from sever "loss of dry", which was reflected on prolonged drying
   time. This phenomenon for cobalt driers is believed to be because of the adsorption of
   the metal on the pigment surface and/or coordination of cobalt carboxylate to form
   macro-molecules, thus leading to the loss of drying efficiency with time.

* In addition to that, coating films based on Mordry 410 tend to have decreased
   yellowing over time (and especially if not exposed to light) compared to those based
   on Cobalt driers.
