1. Wide applicability
Organosilicon leveling agents are suitable for various coating systems, including solvent based, water-based, UV curing, epoxy, polyester, and acrylic coatings. It can be used in conjunction with various resins, pigments, and fillers to meet the needs of different customers.
2. Improve scratch resistance and smoothness
Organic silicon leveling agents can significantly improve the scratch resistance and surface smoothness of coatings, making them more durable while enhancing the tactile and user experience.
3. Improve wettability
Organic silicon leveling agents can improve the wettability of coatings on substrates, ensuring good bonding between coatings and substrates, thereby enhancing the adhesion of coatings.
4. Optimize construction performance
The low surface tension characteristics of organic silicon leveling agents can improve the construction performance of coatings and reduce the problems of bubbles and shrinkage during the construction process. Meanwhile, its excellent migration performance ensures that the coating remains flat during the drying process, avoiding defects caused by uneven surface tension.
summarize
Organic silicon leveling agents have become indispensable additives in the coatings and ink industries due to their significant reduction of surface tension, excellent migration performance, enhanced physical properties, improved glossiness and appearance, and wide applicability. However, its use also requires attention to compatibility with other additives and possible impact on recoating performance.
