Common questions about adhesion-promoting wetting agents

Functional monomers are additives used to improve performance in polymer and coating systems. Akino Commerce offers Polysurf ACE and Polysurf HP, both solvent-free UV-curable additives designed to support adhesion, film properties and performance on selected substrates.

The functional monomer range includes Polysurf ACE and Polysurf HP. Both are solvent-free UV-curable additives, with one focused on hydrophobic adhesion promotion for plastic substrates and the other combining surfactant or adhesion-promoting performance with added resistance properties.

Polysurf ACE is a solvent-free UV-curable additive that acts as a copolymerisable hydrophobic adhesion promoter for plastic substrates. It offers good gloss retention, acid resistance, film appearance, and UV stability, helping improve coating performance on OPP, PVC and PE.

Polysurf HP is a solvent-free UV-curable additive used as a copolymerisable anionic surfactant and adhesion promoter. It is described as offering flame retardant properties, improved wet-scrub resistance, better adhesion to metals and high yellowing resistance.

Yes, both Polysurf ACE and Polysurf HP are described as solvent-free UV-curable additives. This means they are positioned for formulations that require performance improvement in adhesion and coating properties without the use of conventional solvent-based monomer systems.

Polysurf ACE is described for plastic substrates including OPP, PVC, and PE. It functions as a hydrophobic adhesion promoter in these systems, helping improve bonding while also supporting gloss retention, UV stability and better overall film appearance.

Yes, based on the provided data, these monomers support performance features beyond adhesion. Polysurf ACE offers acid resistance and UV stability, while Polysurf HP provides wet-scrub resistance and high yellowing resistance, which contribute to more durable coating performance.

Akino Commerce offers two clearly defined functional monomers for performance-focused formulations. Their listed benefits include adhesion support, UV-curable compatibility, gloss retention, acid resistance, wet-scrub resistance and improved metal or plastic substrate performance depending on the product.

Yes, the product data shows suitability across both material types. Polysurf ACE is designed for plastic substrates like OPP, PVC and PE, while Polysurf HP is described as improving adhesion to metals along with additional resistance-related performance benefits.

Akino Commerce offers functional monomers with clearly defined performance roles. The range covers adhesion support, UV-curable compatibility, resistance improvement and substrate-specific benefits, making it useful for formulations that need targeted enhancement in coating and polymer systems.
