Dow CF-10 Leveling Agent

Dow CF-10 Leveling Agent is a silicone-based additive from Dow’s CF series, designed to enhance surface uniformity and reduce defects in industrial coatings and inks. It improves flow, eliminates orange peel, and ensures defect-free film formation without compromising substrate adhesion or recoatability. Widely used in automotive, packaging, and graphic arts applications for reliable, low-foam performance.

Features Of Dow CF-10 Leveling Agent

  1. Exceptional surface leveling and flow enhancement in solvent-based and high-solids coatings.

  2. Low surface tension reduction without compromising substrate wetting or intercoat adhesion.

  3. Excellent compatibility with acrylic, polyester, and epoxy resin systems.

  4. Minimal impact on pot life and viscosity—ideal for demanding industrial coating formulations.

  5. Non-silicone chemistry avoids silicone-related defects such as craters, fish-eyes, or recoatability issues.

Typical Applications Of Dow CF-10 Leveling Agent

  1. Automotive OEM and refinish clearcoats and basecoats.

  2. Industrial maintenance coatings for metal and plastic substrates.

  3. General-purpose coil coatings requiring uniform film formation.

  4. High-performance wood finishes for furniture and architectural millwork.

  5. UV-curable and hybrid curing systems where low volatility and thermal stability are critical.
