Function: Significant use of anti-foaming agents and dispersing agents during production

Anti-foaming agents are additives used in various industries to minimize foam formation or eliminate existing foam during production. Rheology modifiers are essential additives in the coatings industry that help control a formulation's flow behavior and viscosity. Dispersing agents are crucial components in coating formulations that enable stable dispersion of pigments or fillers within a liquid medium. Adhesion promoters are additives that enhance the bond strength between a coating and substrate, resulting in improved adhesion and long-lasting performance. Wetting & dispersing agents are dual-function additives employed in coatings formulations to facilitate wetting solid particles by a liquid medium (wetting) and maintain an even distribution of these particles within a system (dispersion).

Type: High-performance coating additives are used for excellent adhesion properties

Acrylic coating additives are used in waterborne systems due to their excellent adhesion properties and compatibility with a wide range of resin systems. Fluoropolymer coating additives, derived from high-performance polymers containing fluorine atoms within their molecular structure, offer exceptional chemical and thermal stability. Metallic coating additives consist of metallic components incorporated into coatings to impart desirable properties. Urethane coating additives comprise polyurethane resins known for their versatility and ability to form highly durable films with excellent mechanical properties.

Formulation: Availability of a diverse forms of coating additives for use across industries

High solids coating additives are preferred in industries where low volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emission is a priority, such as automotive and aerospace. These systems offer improved film thickness, better coverage per coat, and enhanced resistance to environmental factors. Powder-based coating additives are gaining popularity due to their eco-friendly nature, ease of application, and superior finish quality. Solvent-borne additives are widely used due to their fast drying times and resistance to extreme conditions such as humidity or temperature fluctuations. Water-borne coating additives are emerging as a popular choice due to their low VOC emissions, easy clean-up, and reduced flammability while maintaining high-performance levels. They are used in architectural coatings, industrial wood finishes, and automotive coatings.

End-User: Increasing use of coating additives in the construction and healthcare industry

In the construction industry, coating additives are essential in improving architectural coatings' durability, aesthetics, and overall performance. The automotive sector demands high-performance coatings to protect vehicles' exteriors and interiors from wear & tear and maintain a lasting aesthetic appearance. Coating additives are vital in enhancing the performance of packaging materials by providing barrier properties against gases (oxygen or carbon dioxide) and moisture ingress or egress control for perishable goods. The aerospace industry requires high-performance coatings that withstand harsh environmental conditions, such as extreme temperature variations and UV radiation exposure. Coating additives are crucial for the healthcare industry as they help improve medical device and equipment performance. The wood and furniture industry employs coating additives to enhance the durability and appearance of surfaces in everyday use items such as home furnishings, cabinetry, or flooring products.
