New high-performance waterborne PVDF coatings resins have been developed that can dramatically extend the decorative lifetime of exterior architectural paints while achieving very low VOC levels.
In this study, APEO-free alternatives provide emulsification during the polymerization equal to the industrial standard, NPE ether sulfate, as a “drop in” replacement.
This paper presents the latest state-of-the-art instrumentation methods available for characterizing the mechanical properties of polymeric coating materials.
