Water-borne Coatings


Bottles
BASF offers broad expertise in a wide range of high-quality intermediates for manufacturing modern coatings. With our global reliability and flexibility as well as our clear dedication to innovation we strive to meet the needs of customers in the coatings industry. Intensive communication with our customers forms the basis of our work.
Water-borne coatings use water as a solvent, which makes them eco-friendly and easy to apply. They are currently available for many different applications, including wood coatings, furniture coatings, plastic coatings, and printing inks. Binders for water-borne coatings are generally polyacrylate, polyvinyl ethers, or polyurethane resins. Additionally, epoxy and alkyd resins can be formulated for water-borne coating applications.
  • BASF offers a broad range of building blocks for alkyd, polyester and polyurethane-based water-borne binders. BASF's water-soluble amines are used in two-component water-borne epoxy coatings.
  • BASF's specialty solvents and additives provide synergistic improvement in shelf-life stability, processability and performance properties in water-borne coating systems.
