Coating Leveling Agent Solutions: Chemi Tech Addresses Surface Defects

In coating applications, leveling performance directly impacts the final appearance and properties of the film. Common defects such as orange peel, cratering, and brush marks not only affect aesthetics but may also compromise weather resistance and protective function. Addressing these industry challenges, Chemi Tech leverages years of technical expertise to develop a series of high-efficiency leveling agents tailored for diverse coating systems.  

Market Pain Points  

Traditional leveling agents often suffer from poor compatibility, limited applicability to specific systems, or inadequate thermal stability, leading to surface defects after application, high rework rates, and increased costs. Especially in applications demanding high film appearance, minor flaws can significantly impact overall quality.  

Chemi Tech Solutions  

1. Prec Selection Support: Recommends compatible leveling agent types based on resin systems (e.g., epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic) to ensure product stability.  

2. Multifunctional Design: Integrates wetting, defoaming, and leveling actions to simplify processes and avoid component interference.  

3. Process Optimization: Provides end-to-end technical guidance from dosage (0.1%-0.5%) to application conditions (humidity, temperature) for optimal performance.  

Case Reference  

An industrial coating manufacturer faced persistent orange peel issues when spraying epoxy topcoats. After adopting Chemi Tech’s KMP-12 leveling agent at 0.3% dosage with viscosity adjustments, film smoothness improved significantly, achieving a first-pass acceptance rate exceeding 98%, reducing rework time and material waste.
