During coating application, poor surface leveling is a common challenge faced by many engineers. Defects such as orange peel, craters and pinholes not only affect appearance but also reduce the protective performance of the coating. Traditional methods often rely on experience to adjust formulations, which is unstable, time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Chemi Tech focuses on the R&D and production of acrylic leveling agents and offers systematic solutions targeting these pain points. Our leveling agents reduce the surface tension of the coating, promote uniform spreading of the coating liquid, and eliminate surface defects caused by poor substrate wetting or compatibility issues.
The implementation is divided into three steps: first, formulation diagnosis is carried out to determine the root cause of leveling problems through laboratory analysis; second, a customized leveling agent dosage plan is recommended with sample testing for verification; and finally, production process adjustments are guided to ensure batch-production stability.
An auto parts factory had long suffered from sagging and orange peel when spraying metal parts. By adopting Chemi Tech acrylic leveling agent at a dosage of 0.3%-0.5%, the surface smoothness of the coating improved by 60%, the rework rate dropped from 15% to within 3%, and about 200,000 yuan in material costs was saved each year.
Chemi Tech has a complete application and technical support system, providing full-process services from sample testing to production-line adaptation. Our products have been validated across various resin systems, including epoxy, polyurethane and acrylic coating systems, helping customers achieve quality upgrades and cost optimization.
