IOTA 245 is a polyether-modified specialty wetting agent that combines excellent substrate wetting, leveling, and smoothing properties. It significantly reduces the surface tension of paint, ink, and adhesive systems, preventing surface defects such as craters and orange peel. It is suitable for both waterborne and solvent-based systems, with outstanding performance particularly in waterborne polyurethane and nitrile glove coatings.
IOTA 245 offers excellent substrate wetting and leveling properties and is widely used in various paint, ink, and coating systems. It provides good water solubility and smoothness, effectively reduces surface friction, improves coating appearance, and minimizes application defects.
