Additives for Textile
Technical textile coatings, synthetic leather and functional finishes where flexibility, hand feel and pigment stability have to survive repeated use and washing.
Performance where the coating moves and flexes with the substrate.
What makes this sector difficult
Flexibility retention without adhesion loss
Hand feel, slip and abrasion resistance
Colour stability through wash and wear cycles
Migration and plasticiser compatibility
Additive families for Textile
Wetting Agents
Substrate wetting additives that lower surface tension so the coating reliably wets low-energy and contaminated surfaces without dewetting, edge retraction or craters.
Adhesion Promoters
Adhesion promoters, chlorinated polyolefins and flash-rust inhibitors for durable bonding on plastics, metals, glass fibre and composite assemblies.
Functional Additives
Coupling agents, reactive silicones and other specialty functional additives for interfacial bonding, permanent modification and formulation problems outside the core families.
