With
today’s evolving technology, one thing to look for in a coatings additive is
multifunctionality. Multifunctionality allows paint formulators to achieve a
number of different benefits with just one product.
Many amines on the market claim to be multifunctional, but there are very few
that offer a full range of capabilities. When selecting a multifunctional amine
for waterborne coatings, there are some key things to look for. Excellent
co-dispersion, viscosity stability, film performance, physical properties and
additive optimization are all important considerations when using a
multifunctional amine.
