A surface conditioner for a coating agent is provided. The surface conditioner for the coating agent comprises: a copolymer composed of 1 to 40 parts by weight of an acrylate monomer (A) having a siloxy group, 2 to 80 parts by weight of an N-vinyllactam monomer (B), and 10 to 97 parts by weight of an alkyl(meth)acrylate monomer (C) of which an alkyl group has 1 to 12 carbon atoms; and weight average molecular weight of the copolymer is 1000 to 120000. It is another object of the present invention to provide a coating agent to which said surface conditioner is blended.

Surface conditioner for coating agents

A surface tension control agent for coating materials includes a fluorine-containing (meth)acrylate copolymer obtained by copolymerizing a fluorine-substituted alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer (A), an alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer (B), and a hydroxyl group- or ether group-containing alkyl (meth)acrylate monomer (C), such that the ratio of (A) to {(B)+(C)} is 3&#x2013;60 parts by weight to 40&#x2013;97 parts by weight.
