Koalex™ MFX

Koalex™ MFX by LANXESS is a multifunctional low-VOC coalescent agent. It is developed to meet rising regulatory pressure on VOCs while improving key performance characteristics in waterborne coatings. It enables more efficient film formation at lower use levels, helping to optimize cost-in-use while enhancing application flexibility.

• It also promotes accelerated hardness development, allowing for faster early and long-term hardness build, which improves durability and reduces time-to-service.
• Additionally, it provides improved block and burnish resistance, enhancing resistance to tack, sticking, and surface marking so coatings maintain their appearance and performance in demanding environments.
• Finally, Koalex™ MFX increases in-can formulation robustness by improving overall in-can resilience, supporting more trouble-free formulations and enabling opportunities for optimized biocide use.
