UV Curing Leveling Agent Solutions - Chemi Tech Addresses Coating Surface Defects

In UV coating applications, surface leveling issues remain a critical challenge affecting coating quality. Common defects like orange peel, cratering, and pinholes not only compromise product appearance but also reduce protective performance and service life. These problems often stem from inadequate compatibility of leveling agents in formulations or improper process parameter control.

Chemi Tech addresses these pain points with a series of high-performance UV curing leveling agents. Their unique molecular structure effectively reduces coating surface tension, promoting uniform spreading before curing. The solution involves three specific steps: First, laboratory testing analyzes substrate characteristics and coating formulations to match the optimal leveling agent type. Second, the addition ratio is adjusted according to the application environment (typically recommended at 0.5%-1.5%). Finally, dynamic optimization is performed in combination with curing equipment parameters.

Application case: An electronics manufacturer consistently faced leveling issues with UV topcoat applications. By adopting Chemi Tech's KMP-12 series leveling agent at 0.8% addition ratio and adjusting curing speed, coating surface gloss increased from 85% to 95%, eliminating orange peel entirely. Product yield improved by 30%, production cycle shortened by 15%, and overall costs decreased significantly.

Chemi Tech leveling agents demonstrate excellent compatibility with various UV resins, without affecting curing speed while enhancing coating adhesion.
