Automotive coating materials are very important items for this industry. However, their performance is limited by the use of excessive amounts of solvents in their formulations, whereas the emission of volatile organic solvents is against the widely ascending principle of green chem. Thus, this study aims to overcome this global problem to save the environment without affecting the properties and performance of the coating. Design/methodol./approach: High solid content paint formulation for automotive applications has been designed with low amount of volatile organic solvents with the aid of a functionalized hyperbranched modifier. Findings: It was found that the presence of a hyperbranched additive allows a high solid content to be designed and facilitate the processing, which indicates its liability to compensate the role played by excessive solvents amounts In addition, the mech. properties and phys. characteristics of the modified coatings showed outstanding performance and preservation of clarity in comparison with the com. counterparts. Practical implications: A high solid content coating with facile processing and improved performance leads to cheaper price beside the pos. impact on the environment considering the limited emission of volatile organic contents. Social implications: Limitation of the used volatile organic compounds in any industry helps to save the health of humans and keep the environment unaffected. Originality/value: The use of functionalized hyperbranched additive to automotive coatings is a very promising additive for automotive coatings with optimized characteristics.
