Wood coatings

The identification of the optimal additive package is essential to creating the best overall coating quality. Extensive evaluations of Surfynol, Dynol, and EnviroGem products indicate that these products provide multiple benefits in waterborne DIY and OEM wood coatings including: better substrate wetting and coating application, elimination or reduction of foam during production and application, improved flow and leveling after spray application, and excellent aesthetics properties and minimization of surface defects. Producers of wood finishes for furniture, office products, kitchen cabinets and other high-end wood pieces can count on Evonik to help them improve their overall coating quality and resolve typical problems encountered during spray, dip, roll or curtain coating processes.
