Features Of BASF Efka 3035 Leveling Agent

  1. Highly effective low-surface-tension additive for superior flow and leveling in solventborne and high-solid coatings.

  2. Excellent compatibility with a broad range of resin systems including acrylics, alkyds, polyesters, and epoxy esters.

  3. Minimal impact on substrate wetting and intercoat adhesion — supports robust multi-layer coating performance.

  4. Low foaming tendency, enabling stable incorporation without compromising defoaming efficiency in production.

  5. Good thermal stability up to 180 °C, suitable for stoving and baking applications.

Typical Applications Of BASF Efka 3035 Leveling Agent

  1. Automotive OEM and refinish coatings (basecoats, clearcoats, primers).

  2. Industrial maintenance coatings for metal substrates (e.g., machinery, agricultural equipment).

  3. Coil coatings requiring uniform film formation and defect-free appearance after rapid curing.

  4. General-purpose decorative and protective solventborne architectural and industrial topcoats.
