Well, we know that the question sounds weird at first, but yes! With the appropriate technology, it is possible to add water to the non-aqueous systems without compromising on any properties like gloss, adhesion, coverage, etc.
Remember, we are not talking about the conventional emulsifiers, that stabilize water in oil systems, it’s something different!
Nowadays, pollution issues and environmental concerns are at the center point to deliver sustainable solutions, and the coatings industry is no different. Notable attention is given to reducing the emissions of VOCs (volatile organic compounds). While many of the applications are being replaced with VOC-free aqueous systems, many of them are still solvent-based due to the limitation of other systems to provide similar properties and aesthetic appeal. Thus, efforts are being made in reducing the volatile matter, and adding water/ partially replacing solvents is a unique way to achieve so.
Our products that deliver such solutions are based on metal complex that induces partial compatibility of of water in solvent-borne coating systems. They are usually recommended for high-gloss alkyd emulsion systems. Not only they reduce the volatile matter, they also improve other coating properties such as adhesion and leveling. Our products play an important role in a step towards sustainable development, while simultaneously reducing volatile emissions
Additive PMA-100 is a specially designed additive for wood primer and red-oxide primer applications. It is a unique and useful formulation tool for water-in-oil emulsion coating primers. It is a multifunctional organometallic-based additive that improves processing benefits for water-in-oil emulsions.
Additive 107 is a specialty additive designed for water addition in alkyd-based enamel paints. It is based on organometallic compounds, which provide a number of benefits over conventional ethoxylated emulsifiers by significantly improving wetting, leveling, ability of cratering & adhesion promotion. It is a unique product for water-in-oil emulsion coating systems.
Additive WAC-777 is a specially designed product for cost-effective high-performance solvent-borne coatings. This organometallic-based chemical is the monopoly additive for water addition in oil-based paint without any adverse effect on paint properties. Rather, it improves the properties such as film adhesion promotion, improvement in wetting properties, surface leveling, and the ability to reduce cratering.
