BASF introduces innovative leveling agents for solvent-borne and solvent-free coatings

• Polyacrylate-based flow and leveling agents with exceptional compatibility
• Ideal for use in all solvent-borne systems, especially 2K topcoats

BASF has globally launched two innovative polyacrylate-based leveling agents: Efka^® FL 3750 and Efka^® FL 3755, which are specifically developed for all solvent-borne and solvent-free coatings.

Efka^® FL 3750 and Efka^® FL 3755 demonstrates brilliant compatibility in solvent-borne resin systems like acrylic melamine, 2K PU, alkyd, polyester and nitrocellulose lacquer. Other highlights include outstanding heat stability across paint systems ranging from 2K PU ambient curing to high temperature baking of acrylic and polyester coil systems.

Efka^® FL 3750 and Efka^® FL 3755 are an ideal choice for use in automotive OEM and refinish coatings, wood coatings and industrial coatings.  Their application area can also be extended to UV curing formulations and powder coatings, as well as ambient curing and baking curing systems.
