From industrial coatings to home coatings: the cross-scenario application code of
water-based anti-shrinkage additives
Water-based anti-shrinkage additives are additives used in water-based coatings, inks and other systems to
prevent shrinkage defects in coatings during drying or curing. Its application range is wide, covering multiple
industrial fields.
Architectural coatings field
Interior wall coatings: In indoor wall decoration such as homes and offices, the appearance quality of
coatings is required to be high. Water-based anti-shrinkage additives can effectively avoid shrinkage caused by
improper substrate treatment (such as residual oil, dust) or compatibility problems of the coating system, ensure
that the wall coating is flat and smooth, and enhance the decorative effect.
Exterior wall coatings:
Exterior walls are exposed to the natural environment for a long time and are affected by various factors
such as ultraviolet rays, rain, and temperature differences. The use of water-based anti-shrinkage additives can not
only prevent shrinkage, but also enhance the weather resistance and stain resistance of the coating, so that the
exterior wall remains beautiful and has good protective performance.
Wood coatings field
Furniture manufacturing:
In the furniture production process, wood coatings need to provide furniture with beautiful appearance and protection.
Water-based anti-shrinkage crater additives can help the coating spread evenly on the wood surface, avoid shrinkage
craters caused by uneven wood texture and moisture content, make the furniture surface coating smooth and uniform
in color, and improve the quality and market competitiveness of furniture.
Wood floor coating: Wood flooring has high requirements for surface flatness and glossiness. The application of
water-based anti-shrinkage crater additives can ensure that the wood floor coating does not have shrinkage craters during
the drying process, ensure the smoothness and wear resistance of the floor surface, and extend the service life of the floor.
Automotive coating field
Automobile original paint:
Automakers have extremely strict quality requirements for body coatings, and any defects may affect the appearance and
performance of the car. The application of water-based anti-shrinkage crater additives in automotive original paint can prevent
shrinkage craters during spraying and drying, ensure the uniformity and glossiness of the body coating, and improve the quality
and market competitiveness of the car.
Automotive repair paint: During the car repair process, the repair paint needs to have a good match with the original paint.
Water-based anti-shrinkage crater additives can help the repair paint spread evenly on the surface of the car body, avoid shrinkage
craters caused by environmental factors or differences in paint performance, make the repaired coating consistent with the original
paint color and texture, and achieve a good repair effect.
Plastic coating field
Plastic shell of home appliances:
Plastic shells of home appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines need to have good appearance and protective
properties. Water-based anti-shrinkage crater additives can prevent shrinkage craters from occurring in plastic coatings during the
coating process, make the shell coating smooth and flat, and improve the appearance quality and market competitiveness of home
appliance products.
Automotive plastic parts: Plastic parts on automobiles, such as bumpers and interior trims, have high requirements for coating
adhesion and appearance. The application of water-based anti-shrinkage crater additives can ensure the quality of plastic parts
coatings, prevent the occurrence of defects such as shrinkage craters, and improve the durability and aesthetics of parts.
Printing ink field
Packaging printing: In the packaging printing of food, medicine, cosmetics, etc., strict requirements are placed on the printing
quality and appearance of inks. Water-based anti-cratering additives can prevent the ink from shrinking during the printing process,
ensure the clarity and integrity of the printed pattern, and improve the visual effect and product quality of the packaging.
Publishing and printing: In the printing of publications such as books and magazines, it is necessary to ensure the uniformity and
stability of the printing ink. The application of water-based anti-cratering additives can avoid printing quality problems caused by ink
shrinkage and improve the printing quality of publications.
