As one of the important chemical additive, leveling agent mainly used for industrial coating and  Architectural coatings for coating industry. Here we make a simple introduction for the coating usage.

1. Industrial coatings:

·Automotive Coatings:

·Original factory paint: Eliminate orange peel and shrinkage in intermediate paint, colored paint, and clear paint, improve gloss and clarity.

·Repair paint: Ensure a smooth transition between the repaired area and the original coating, eliminate fog, sagging, brush marks/roller marks.

·Roll coating: prevents roll marks and streaks on high-speed coating lines, ensures rapid leveling of the coating, and obtains a uniform and high gloss surface (used for household appliances, building metal plates, etc.).

·Wood and furniture paint:

·Solid wood furniture: polyurethane paint, nitro paint, water-based paint eliminate brush marks and roller marks, improve fullness and hand feel (especially matte paint anti shrinkage holes).

·Panel furniture: UV cured coating prevents roller marks, improves leveling and extinction uniformity.

·Plastic coating: solves the problems of shrinkage and fisheye caused by poor wetting on low surface energy plastics (PP, PE, ABS, PC, etc.), and improves adhesion.

·Anti corrosion coatings: improve leveling, reduce brush/roll marks, enhance appearance quality and weather resistance (especially for topcoats) in ship paint, container paint, and steel structure paint.

·Floor coating: Eliminate trowel marks and roller marks in epoxy and polyurethane floors to achieve a mirror effect or even orange peel texture (according to design requirements).

2. Architectural coatings

·Latex paint for interior and exterior walls: reduces brushing and roller coating marks, improves the flatness, smoothness, and stain resistance of the paint film (especially high-end silk gloss and semi gloss paint).

·Metal/real stone paint/textured paint: improves workability and makes the coating more uniform and flat (although textured paint pursues texture, leveling agents help distribute texture evenly).

·Waterproof coating: improves brushing performance, making the coating more uniform and dense.
