Raw materials for OEM coating processes — from filler to clearcoat, tuned to the stoving conditions of the line.
OEM coating is the most tightly specified coating process there is: every layer — e-coat, filler, basecoat, clearcoat — is stoved under defined conditions, and every disruption costs line time. Craters, popping and mottling are not cosmetic flaws here but causes of rejects; the additive package must be absolutely reproducible from batch to batch.
We supply the BYK additives for substrate wetting, levelling, air release and pigment orientation, melamine crosslinkers from Prefere Melamines for the stoving systems, and polyester and acrylic resins from Synres.
Typical defects — and where the solution lies
Craters in filler, basecoat or clear coat
Align substrate wetting and surface tension across the layers — every defect is a cause of rejects. — Surface additives →
Air release at high line speed
Choose air-release additives to match application and stoving window. — Defoamers →
Colour consistency across batches and sites
Design pigment stabilisation for reproducibility — wetting and dispersing additives matched to each pigment. — Wetting & dispersing additives →
Crosslinking within a defined stoving window
Choose melamine crosslinkers by reactivity and oven curve — from HMMM to partially alkylated grades. — Amino crosslinkers (melamine) →
