The Challenge
The first requirement for exterior paints is an excellent hiding power to avoid the need of applying multiple layers. Furthermore, exterior paints must meet several requirements such as durability (anti-ageing and color retention) and adhesion on various substrates. On top of that health and safety are key concerns which lead to a higher need of eco-friendly resins (low VOC).
The Solution
No matter the technical features formulators are looking for, BASF's comprehensive portfolio of emulsions allows them to:
- Enhance the performances of their coatings according to their needs
- Use the most appropriate binder technology between hybrid, styrene or pure acrylic
Below are comparisons of several BASF binders demonstrating specific benefits:
- Maximum durability, thanks to the enhanced self-cleaning and anti-ageing capability of COL.9® and better wet scrub resistance of Acronal® DS 6258
- Excellent color retention with deep-tone paints through the higher whitening resistance of Acronal® A 754
- Easy application on multiple types of substrate with the universal adhesion properties of Acronal® A 684
Anti-ageing

Wet scrub resistance
(according to EN ISO 13300)
 Figure 2: Acronal® DS 6258 offers high scrub resistance
and therefore good film toughness

Universal adhesion

Figure 4: Acronal® A 684 shows stronger adhesion power on different substrates in wet and dry conditions |
