Are you RDY to Formulate the Future?
Increasing expectations on performance coupled with tightening regulatory frameworks worldwide put paint formulators under pressure.
With the new RDY additives range, BASF’s Formulation and Performance Additives team has one clear objective: enable our customers to develop solutions today in anticipation of tomorrow’s challenges. Or more precisely: “RDY to Formulate the Future”.
Power Up your industrial coatings to exceed performance and sustainability standards
We strengthen our sustainable offer with the new RDY additives range launching a new generation of silicone-modified polyacrylate leveling agents:
Efka® FL 3287 has been specially designed for medium to high performance solvent-based and solvent-free industrial coatings (including UV curing coatings)
and
Efka® FL 3782, suitable for water- and solvent based high end paints, including automotive coatings.
Additionally to all sustainability gains, Efka® FL 3287 and Efka® FL 3782 also offer superior performance. Excellent substrate wetting even at low film thickness ensures an optimal value in use. For multilayer systems where re-coatability is a must, these two levelling agents are also best in class solutions!
Furthermore, three new sustainable defoamers, Efka® SI 2041, Efka® SI 2042 and Efka® SI 2751, have been recently launched covering broad application fields such as general industrial and furniture and flooring coatings. The products are offering very efficient deaeration, excellent value in use in solvent-based paints and coatings and are universally applicable. Efka® SI 2751 is in addition suitable for Printing & Packaging and adhesives due to its broad food contact compliance.
So the only question now is: Are you RDY to Formulate the Future? Watch out for more.
