The film formation process of one-component waterborne formulations involves a sequence of water evaporation, coalescence and further solidification. The length of this process determines when the coated substrate can be further processed or used. A long drying time lengthens the total coating process until finished parts can be used, further processed or stacked. Accelerating the development of a coating’s early performance characteristics allows for increased productivity if a coating line can run faster, or if the interval between multi-layer coatings can be shortened or if it can extend the application period of a seasonally applied coating.
