Product Analysis

Versatile Coating Additives

Coating additives serve to enhance the quality and performance of paints and coatings, improving attributes such as dispersion of solids, wetting, foam reduction, anti-catering, gloss control, anti-chipping, UV protection, and more. These additives come in various types, including acrylics, urethanes, fluoropolymers, and metallics. Acrylic additives lead the product type category, followed by urethanes and metallic additives. Coating additives are crucial for surfaces to withstand higher temperatures, abrasion, moisture, biocides, and chemical resistance.

Based on formulations, the coating additives market is segmented into water-borne, solvent-borne, and powder-based coatings. Water-borne coatings have gained popularity due to their lower VOC content, with solvent-borne coatings losing favor due to environmental concerns. The significant demand for coating additives stems from various sectors, including building & construction, automotive, wood & furniture, industrial engineering, and aviation.
