Additives for architectural coatings are core components that enhance coating performance and improve production and application processes. They primarily include: defoamers, dispersants, thickeners, leveling agents, preservatives and biocides, film-forming aids, wetting agents, emulsifiers, rheology modifiers, anti-mold agents, and pH adjusters. Though used in small quantities in formulations, they significantly improve coating stability, workability, and film appearance. With over 10 years’ experience in the production and R&D of coating additives, VITchem can assist customers in optimising formulations and supply stable, reliable coating additives.
