'sikkativ' common root with the English 'dessicate'
or 'drying agent',
as in wet film applied drying, (really reacting/curing), to a tack-free coating.
It's the age old problem,
pure no-additive Linseed Oil has minimal risks of hazards when applying,
it just takes forever to fully cure.
'Boiled' Linseed Oil has heavy metal catalysts/drying agents that reduce the cure time,
but have significant exposure risks.
