High-performance solvent-based additive scratch resistance Nova AS101
Nova AS101 is a high-performance solvent-based additive engineered to enhance tahan gores, gloss consistency, Dan surface flow in high-quality coatings. It functions by forming a flexible, abrasion-resistant film matrix, improving both aesthetics and durability without compromising gloss or compatibility.
Its optimized formulation provides effective surface control, gloss leveling, and micro-roughness reduction across PU, NC, alkyd, and acrylic systems.
Aplikasi
- Polyurethane (PU) topcoats (automotive, wood, plastic)
- Alkyd & modified alkyd decorative finishes
- NC-based clear & pigmented wood coatings
- Plastic and metal industrial coatings
- Metallic basecoats or synthetic enamels
Key Benefits & Market Value
Enhanced Scratch & Abrasion Resistance
Benefit: Forms a resilient surface matrix that minimizes micro-scratches from daily use, handling, or abrasion.
Market Value: Boosts product durability and perceived quality in furniture, plastic parts, automotive, and helmet coatings—key for Indonesian OEMs and exporters.
Gloss Control & Surface Uniformity
Benefit: Promotes even gloss levels across the coated surface without matting or haze.
Market Value: Critical for achieving a premium finish in decorative and protective coatings—preferred by high-end brands and customers seeking visual perfection.
Improved Flow & Leveling
Benefit: Reduces surface tension to prevent orange peel, pinholes, and flow marks.
Market Value: Helps painters and coaters reduce rework, especially in manual or semi-automated spray applications commonly used in Indonesia.
Better Slip & Tactile Feel
Benefit: Enhances surface slip without introducing slipperiness or recoat ability issues.
Market Value: Offers smoother handling and a premium “feel”—especially valued in plastics, appliances, and consumer goods.
Broad Resin Compatibility
Benefit: Compatible with PU, NC, Alkyd, and Acrylic solvent-based systems.
Market Value: Ideal for formulators who serve multiple industries (wood, metal, plastic) with shared base chemistries—simplifies inventory and improves speed-to-market.
