In a world where performance meets aesthetics, textile and leather coatings must do more than just look good - they must endure, protect, and perform. Evonik empowers manufacturers with advanced additives and monomers that enhance durability and flexibility across textile and leather applications.

From fashion and furniture to industrial fabrics and automotive interiors, our solutions help surfaces stand out and last longer.

• Proven Performance: Trusted brands like VISIOMER®, TEGO®, SILIKOPUR®, AEROSIL®, AERODISP®, ACEMATT®, DYNOL™, SURFYNOL®, Dynasylan®, VPS®, and ZETASPERSE® deliver tailored functionality for demanding coating systems.
• Bio-Based and Mass-Balanced Options: VISIOMER® Terra C13-MA, C17,4-MA, IBOMA and CARMA offer certified bio content according to ASTM D6866; VISIOMER® eCO EHMA is a mass-balanced grade with reduced carbon footprint, ISCC PLUS certified. TEGO® Wet 270 eCO applies the mass balance approach.
• Application Versatility: Our portfolio supports waterborne, solvent-based, and radiation-curable systems for textiles and leather.

Textile Coatings

• VISIOMER® Specialty Methacrylate monomers – Enable flame retardancy, crosslinking, and enhanced durability while improving functionality and visual appeal. Key products include: 
  • VISIOMER® N-MMAA – Offers secondary thermal crosslinking for improved performance and durability in cured systems.
  • VISIOMER® HEMA-P – Delivers non-migrating flame protection with polymer integration- ideal for transparent waterborne coatings
• TEGO® & SURFYNOL® – Wetting agents, defoamers, and flow enhancers for smooth, defect-free coatings.
• SILIKOPUR® – Silicone-modified polyurethane emulsions for flexible, tack-free finishes.
• AEROSIL® / AERODISP® / ACEMATT® – Provide rheology control, matting, and surface uniformity.
• ZETASPERSE® – Dispersing agents for pigment stability and color consistency.

Leather Coatings

• ACEMATT® – Untreated silica for deep matte gloss level and high transparency for black velvet effect.
• Dynasylan® – Silane-based adhesion promoters for long-lasting bonding and surface protection.
• VPS 4721 – Epoxy-functional silane resin that bonds organic polymers to inorganic surfaces. VPS 7163 – Isocyanurato silane and strong crosslinker.
• DYNOL™ – Superwetters for uniform coverage and improved substrate interaction.
• SILIKOPUR® – Silicone-modified polyurethane emulsions for flexible, tack-free leather finishes.
• TEGO® Glide – For soft-touch and haptic properties in leather applications.
• VISIOMER® N-MMAA – a secondary thermal crosslinker featuring both methacrylate and hydroxy groups for improved durability in cured systems.

• Tailored Chemistry: Customize your coatings for gloss and visual appeal, flexibility, flame resistance, and adhesion.
• Regulatory Support: Emission and safety requirements depend on the coating system, the end use and the market. Our specialists support you in assessing the applicable requirements.
• Expert Collaboration: Our technical teams help you optimize formulations and accelerate innovation.
