Polyurethane Leveling Agent: The Surface Artist for Flawless Coatings

Polyurethane Leveling Agent: The Surface Artist for Flawless Coatings

In a coating workshop in southern China, foreman Li was frowning at freshly sprayed workpieces. These products coated with new polyurethane topcoat showed fine orange peel textures, severely compromising appearance quality. More troublingly, as the rainy season approached and humidity increased, such surface defects became more frequent.

Surface Defects: The Aesthetic Killer of PU Coatings

While polyurethane coatings boast excellent mechanical properties and weather resistance, they often face three surface issues during application:

These problems not only affect aesthetics but may also reduce protective performance. Traditional solutions often require extensive adjustments to application environment, equipment parameters and techniques, yet with inconsistent results.

Chemical Leveling: Chemi Tech's Surface Remedy

Chemi Tech's KMP-200 series polyurethane leveling agents achieve triple-leveling mechanisms through unique molecular design:

An auto parts manufacturer using conventional PU topcoats struggled with 85% yield rate. After adopting Chemi Tech KMP-205 leveling agent, not only was orange peel eliminated, but mirror-like finishes could be achieved even at 70% humidity, boosting yield above 98%.
