Shanghai, China. Evonik Coating Additives launches TEGO® Powder Aid F05, a hydrophobic dry flow additive specifically designed for the powder coating industry. The new additive offers superior flowability and anti-caking performance, perfectly addressing the dynamic needs of the rapidly expanding powder coating market, particularly in the Asia Pacific region.

This ensures long-lasting durability and performance of the coatings.

This innovation not only enhances the performance and quality of powder coatings but also provide a new option for our customers to modify their formulations for challenging production conditions.”
