Features Of BASF Efka FL 3337 Leveling Agent

  1. Highly effective surface tension reduction for superior flow and leveling in solventborne and high-solids coatings.

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

  3. Low foaming tendency—minimizes air entrapment and avoids defects such as pinholes or craters.

  4. Good substrate wetting on low-energy surfaces (e.g., polyolefins, fluoropolymers) without compromising intercoat adhesion.

  5. Thermally stable up to 200 °C, supporting baking applications in coil and automotive OEM coatings.

Typical Applications Of BASF Efka FL 3337 Leveling Agent

  1. Automotive OEM and refinish clearcoats and basecoats.

  2. Industrial maintenance coatings for metal and plastic substrates.

  3. Coil coatings requiring uniform film formation at high line speeds.

  4. High-performance wood finishes where defect-free gloss and edge coverage are critical.

  5. Plastic coatings for automotive interior parts and consumer electronics housings.
