The new range provides a complete spectrum of sheens, from high gloss to dead flat, and draws inspiration from the rich heritage and craftsmanship of trusted, Italian-inspired formulations.
This article discusses new developments in water-based UV-curable polyurethanes that offer much-improved 50 °C paint stability in clear, as well as pigmented coatings. It also discusses how these resins address the desired attributes of the coating applicator in increasing line speed through fast water release, improved block resistance, and solvent resistance off the line.
Innovators can compete for this award honoring new products or technologies brought to market. The award is presented by the American Chemistry Council’s (ACC) Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI).
This article examines the physical properties of polyurethanes and polyureas, their differences, and a technology review with benefits and drawbacks of sub-coating classes.
Cast elastomers based on PDO-sebacate polyol exhibit an excellent combination of tensile properties, abrasion resistance, thermal, hydrolytic, and solvent resistance, as well as adhesion to metal substrates. These are desirable properties for cast elastomers intended for applications as protective coatings for pipes, and coatings for sieves typically used in drilling and mining applications.
The 65th Polyurethanes Technical Conference will take place Sept. 25-27, 2023, at the Marriott Rivercenter in San Antonio, and feature discussions on key regulatory and policy issues, educational sessions, and the latest innovations in the polyurethanes industry.
Clean up polyurethane production with renewable monomers that deliver an enhanced property profile. The feedstocks traditionally used for polyurethane production are petrochemical based.
The Center for the Polyurethanes Industry announced Riddell SpeedFlex Precision Diamond Football Helmet Liner and Dow AQUACHILL™ Cool Coating for Comfier Bedding as the finalists for the 2019 Polyurethane Innovation Award.
