READ MOREIn the development of modern industrial coatings and high-precision inks, the stability of formulation performance largely depends on the adjustment of additives at the microscopic level. As a professional supplier of raw materials for coatings, inks, and adhesives, Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd. is committed to providing global customers with high-performance Ink and Coating Performance Additives to solve core technical challenges, supported by a veteran team of R&D experts, technical sales, and a modern production base.
Excellent surface wetting is the key to ensuring a uniform film. Ink and Coating Performance Additives reduce the surface tension of the system, allowing the coating to spread rapidly across various substrates.
Application Value: Effectively eliminates craters, fish eyes, and brush marks, ensuring the flatness of the coating under high-gloss requirements.
Technical Support: Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd. is equipped with advanced testing equipment to accurately analyze wetting behavior on substrates of different polarities, thereby optimizing the addition ratio of leveling agents.
For different processes such as screen printing, roller coating, and spraying, Ink and Coating Performance Additives provide precise rheology control solutions.
Thixotropic Optimization: Maintains good fluidity under shear force while rapidly recovering viscosity when static, effectively preventing sagging.
Industry Suitability: Widely used in steel and aluminum coil coatings, wood coatings, and anti-corrosion coatings served by Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd.
Mechanical stirring and construction processes often introduce air, forming bubbles. High-performance defoamers within the Ink and Coating Performance Additives range can quickly break microbubbles and inhibit regeneration.
Long-term Efficiency: Maintains high anti-foaming capability even during long-term pump circulation.
Compatibility: Ensures process efficiency is improved without affecting the interlaminar adhesion of the coating.

Industrial coating environments are complex and ever-changing, ranging from high-temperature and high-humidity factories to corrosive marine climates. Substrate surfaces require extreme physical and chemical resistance. Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd., through years of deep cultivation in coating raw materials, has developed a series of high-performance Specialty Additives for Industrial Finishes designed to provide a solid protective barrier for heavy machinery, coil coatings, and anti-corrosion engineering.
During logistics handling or mechanical operation, coating surfaces are highly susceptible to friction and impact. Specialty Additives for Industrial Finishes significantly improve surface slip by introducing modified wax powders, nanoparticles, or special rheological additives.
Physical Protection: Reduces the coefficient of friction, causing hard objects to slide across the surface rather than scratching it.
Professional Support: The wax powder and matting powder series provided by Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd. ensure coating hardness without affecting the clarity or gloss stability of the industrial finish.
Outdoor industrial equipment exposed to strong UV radiation for long periods is prone to chalking, loss of gloss, and discoloration.
Performance Guarantee: Specific Specialty Additives for Industrial Finishes can absorb or reflect harmful spectra, delaying resin degradation.
Industry Application: In power battery casings, photovoltaic panels, and architectural aluminum profiles served by Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd., these additives are core to maintaining long-term aesthetics and structural safety.
Against corrosive media such as acids, alkalis, and salt spray, Specialty Additives for Industrial Finishes establish a dense chemical barrier to prevent moisture from penetrating the substrate.
Synergistic Effect: Works with anti-settling agents and defoamers to ensure uniform, pinhole-free protective films.
R&D Strength: Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd. possesses a modern production base and cutting-edge R&D personnel to custom-develop functional additives for specific corrosive environments.

In high-performance coating systems, the bonding strength between the substrate and the coating is the key factor determining product life. Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd. deeply understands interfacial chemistry. Its R&D expert team has developed efficient Surface Treatment Chemicals for diverse substrates like metal, plastic, and glass. These chemicals not only clean the surface but also provide molecular-level modification to lay a solid foundation for subsequent coating.
For low-surface-energy substrates (such as PP or special composites), direct coating often faces the risk of peeling. Adhesion promoters within the Surface Treatment Chemicals category act as chemical bridges.
Reaction Mechanism: One end of the additive bonds with polar groups on the substrate surface, while the other cross-links with the coating resin, forming a strong covalent bond.
Professional Support: Adhesion promoters from Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd. are widely used in automotive interiors and electronic housings, ensuring coatings do not peel under rigorous testing.
In the metal processing industry, Surface Treatment Chemicals are primarily used to prevent substrate oxidation and improve the "bite" of anti-corrosion coatings.
Chemical Conversion Film: Through pickling or phosphating, a nano-scale conversion film is generated on the metal surface, significantly improving salt spray resistance.
Synergistic Effect: The treated surface works perfectly with the anti-corrosion additives from Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd., extending equipment maintenance cycles.
Before applying Ink and Coating Performance Additives, using Surface Treatment Chemicals to remove processing oils and mold release agents is vital.
Wetting Improvement: Activation treatment increases the critical surface tension of the substrate, allowing leveling and wetting agents to perform at their maximum efficiency.
R&D Strength: Suzhou Qingtian New Material Co., Ltd. uses advanced testing equipment to accurately measure changes in contact angles before and after treatment, providing customers with quantified technical support.
