ADDITOL XW 395 Enhances surface properties of the films and prevents film defects like insufficient wetting and structured surfaces owing to impurities. ADDITOL XW 395 is an additive specially designed for Resydrol paint systems and, compatibility provided, for other waterborne paint systems. Considering the levels and restrictions given below ADDITOL XW 395 can be used in any water dilutable paint with the exception of electrodeposition paints. ADDITOL XW 395 prevents film defects, such as craters and pin holes or can remedy poor wetting owing to impurities brought into the aqueous paint during preperation or processing. Insufficiently degreased metal is the main cause for such troubles. With ADDITOL XW 395 wetting problems are avoided. It should be noted that film defects arising from silicone oils in many cases cannot be prevented with ADDITOL XW 395. ADDITOL XW 395 prevents floating of pigments, striation, orange peel, etc. and improves the film surface in general. ADDITOL XW 395 at the recommended levels, does not impair the physical properties of the stoved film. In primers ADDITOL XW 395 may cause a certain degree of gloss. Additions of ADDITOL XW 395 may adversely influence the effect of antifoaming agents, on the other hand, it can remedy infavourable effects of the antifoams. In aqueous paints for spray application ADDITOL XW 395 can be used without precautions, while in dipping or flow coating paints ADDITOL XW 395 must be carefully balanced with the antifoams normally present.

MODAFLOW 9200 is a new low‐viscosity flow modifier developed for high performance in solvent‐based automotive and industrial coatings, especially in clear top coat applications where it offers high gloss, low orange peel, and excellent DOI (Distinctivness of Image) in the coating film. Using of Modaflow 9200 can significantly improve the quality of the coatings as follows: improves flow and leveling, reduces pinholes, fisheyes, craters and orange peel, improves substrate wetting, improves or maintain high gloss, improves or maintain substrate and intercoat adhesion, facilitates pigment dispersion, quantity to be added: 0.1 ‐ 2.0 % on solid resin.

MODAFLOW AQ 3025 is an acrylic flow additive for aqueous coatings. It has been developed for use in water-reducible, latex, and dispersion systems and is compatible with a broad range of chemistries. Modaflow AQ 3025 is amine neutralized in water and contains no organic solvents or silicone. The low viscosity of Modaflow allows for easy incorporation into the coating formulation versus Modaflow AQ 3000.

ADDITOL VXW 6235 gives rapid foam retardant results, which remains effective during storage of the aqueous powder coating. The flow property of the coating is not effected. Pin hole free films are obtained. ADDITOL VXW 6235 it is mainly recommended for powder coating materials to be used in aqueous systems eg: Emulsion paints, 2-component epoxy systems, Plasterwork, Filling compounds and scalants, Flooring compounds, Adhesives and Good effects are also seen in liquid non glossy water reducible coating systems.
