Effective Leveling & Wetting Agent Solutions - Chemi Tech Specialized Additives

In industrial coating and material manufacturing, surface defects such as craters, fish eyes, and orange peel often occur due to uneven substrate tension or contamination, leading to non-uniform coating application. Chemi Tech addresses these challenges with high-performance leveling and wetting agents designed to reduce surface tension and enhance flow, enabling rapid spreading and defect remediation.  

The solution involves four steps: First, diagnose the defect type and root cause through analysis. Second, select a compatible agent based on substrate characteristics. Third, incorporate the additive at 0.1%-0.5% into the production system. Finally, optimize parameters via leveling tests and validation.  

An automotive parts manufacturer faced frequent cratering during primer spraying, resulting in a 15% rework rate. After adopting Chemi Tech's leveling wetting agent, cratering was eliminated, first-pass yield increased to 98%. The product is compatible with water-based and solvent systems and suitable for metals, plastics, and other substrates.
