Chemi Tech Aqueous Wetting and Leveling Agent: Solve Coating Defects and Improve Surface Smoothness

In coating and ink applications, poor wetting and uneven leveling often lead to surface defects such as orange peel, craters, or fish eyes, which significantly impact product appearance and quality. These issues typically arise from inconsistent substrate surface tension, poor compatibility, or varying application conditions.

Addressing these challenges, Chemi Tech offers a specialized range of aqueous wetting and leveling agents. These additives reduce surface tension, promote even spread, and facilitate rapid leveling, markedly improving surface quality. The solution involves three steps: First, analyze substrate characteristics and formulation composition to identify compatibility issues. Second, recommend optimal dosage based on application methods (e.g., spraying, rolling), typically between 0.1% and 0.8%. Third, ensure long-term stability and performance through dynamic surface tension control and migration management.

A manufacturer of industrial clear coatings experienced persistent cratering. After incorporating Chemi Tech's wetting and leveling agent, surface smoothness and gloss improved significantly without compromising intercoat adhesion. The customer reported higher first-pass yield and reduced rework.

With technical expertise and customized service, Chemi Tech delivers reliable aqueous additive solutions to achieve high-quality coating surfaces and stable production.
