Fluorosurfactants & Coating Additives

Surfactants are a substance which aggregates or absorbs at the surface and interfaces with a system - and changes their properties.  DuPont™ Capstone™ and Zonyl® products are fluorocarbon-based surfactants (Fluorosurfactants).  Fluorosurfactant additives enhance the properties of the formulations such as improved wetting/spreading, leveling, penetrating, foaming, chemical stability, thermal stability, and can substantially reduce surface tensions.

Fluorosurfactants are versatile and can be used with a wide variety of materials such as paints and coatings, adhesives, waxes and polishes, and cleaning products.

Capstone™ and Zonyl® products for coatings improve properties such as wetting, leveling, defoaming, blocking resistance, open time, and reduction of surface tension.
