Solvent-based systems Solvent-based systems

Solvent-based systems represent the majority of applications in the coatings industry. We offer a wide range of amino resins for high-solid performance and baking reactivity, OH-functional acrylic copolymers, hyperbranched polyesters, hardeners, and grinding resins for all solvent-based binder classes. Our high-quality products are usable for 1K and 2K systems and fulfill the current VOC regulations.

Performance, however, is preeminent: Good adhesion, resistance to weathering, yellowing, and chemicals; flexibility and economic cost in use, and especially hardness and luster are among the hallmarks of these product ranges.

Our products cover a broad application window (especially temperature, humidity, film thickness) and include applications for physical drying, low-bake systems, and high-bake processes. They are usable for a majority of substrates and for matt and high-gloss finishes. 40 Fields ofapplication–mainfocusonhigh-solid 2KPU To leveragethefullpotentialofthesesystems, and reducing theglasstransition temperature. content are reducing themolecularweightofpolyols based systems.Two optionsforachievinghigh-solid systems canbesubstitutedbyhigh-solidssolvent- coatings, low-tomedium-solidssolvent-based For environmental andworkers’ protection in2KPU Basonol Basonat With and high-solid2KPUcoatings Polyisocyanates forconventional binders for1Kand2KPUcoatings Your bestchoiceforcross-linkers and market’s highestperformancerequirements. well-established marketstandards andfulfillsthe optimization anddevelopment,BASFprovides and high-solidapplications.Thankstocontinuous It issimplytheidealhardener formostconventional hardeners forhigh-performance2KPUcoatings.

Wetting agents and surface modifiers

Wetting agents and surface modifiers are essential BASF Formulation Additives offers a broad portfolio Fluorinated polyacrylates are a very versatile class of Fluorinated polyacrylate components of modern paints and coatings. They of wetting agents and surface modifiers for water-​ interfacially active additives. They are widely used in at the liquid / air interface provide a formulation with adequate wetting properties, based and solvent-based systems based on various the coating industry as flow and leveling agents. Pure enhance different component compatibility, and chemistries. polyacrylate copolymers are highly appreciated for their Illustration of fluorinated polyacrylate at the liquid / air improve the surface of a coating. Our broad portfolio flow performance, although they do not significantly interface. The block copolymer arrangement makes of wetting agents and surface modifiers offers highly reduce the surface tension of a formulation. However, maximum use of the fluorinated side chains. Product effective products for almost every paint and coating Chemistry Characteristics a straight polyacrylate cannot solve problems like system. range cratering, poor substrate wetting, and other problems Most coating systems need good flow and leveling related to surface tension. Fluorinated polyacrylates in order to have a smooth appearance. A flat and Alkoxylated Low-foaming substrate wetting have been developed as a result. These polyacrylates Hydropalat® even surface will give a higher gloss and is therefore surfactant agents for waterborne applications with fluorinated side chains can lower the surface eye-catching.

The FoamStar® polymer appearance of the paint film. Thus, high-performing system. On the one hand, the active ingredient in the market. The portfolio ranges from standard mineral is a hyper-branched polymer with a 3D star-shaped defoamers are needed to prevent the formation of defoamer must be almost insoluble in the paint oil defoamer technologies to aqueous emulsion structure, containing hydrophilic as well as hydrophobic bubbles in liquid paints. They reduce foam and avoid formulation. A defoamer must form small defoamer defoamers and up to our innovative FoamStar® elements. foam formation during the production, application, droplets which are able to migrate into the foam technology. Unlike conventional mineral oil and silicone defoamers, and transport of paint formulations. lamellae. In order to ensure long-term defoaming Today, most defoamers are sophisticated formulations the FoamStar® molecule defoams on a molecular level. Especially in industrial surroundings, foam is a very efficiency the defoamer droplets have to be stable designed to fit together with paint and coating formula- It acts as a unique surfactant interacting with the undesirable phenomenon that can emerge during in the system and should not dissolve upon storage. tions in the best possible way.

Performance additives

Organic coatings and inks with aesthetical, protective, and other functional properties are exposed to a variety of environmental and artificial factors such as solar radiation, humidity, temperature change, microbiological attack, air pollutants, and many more.

In order to assure that coatings will maintain their beautiful appearance, we offer the most comprehensive portfolio of stabilizers and other performance additives: UV absorbers (UVA) and hindered amine light stabilizers (HALS) for effective stabilization against the detrimental effects of light and weathering, as well as phenolic and non-phenolic antioxidants against thermally induced degradation during production, processing, and service life. The product range is completed with optical brighteners.

Background of light and heat stabilization
