Sustainable low-Mw and high-Mw polymers can be made without generating any waste during polymer synthesis, using reactive solvents and water as a reaction media.
This study reveals the degradation mechanism of a typical acrylic melamine automotive clearcoat caused by bird droppings. It was found that natural bird droppings and pancreatin are able to catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of etheric and esteric linkages of acrylic melamine clearcoats, leaving etched areas and local defects as well as a decreased appearance on the clearcoat surface.
Al Kidd's first sign of a problem was the strong, acrid smell that burned his nose. What was the material in the drum that caused the smoke? What had caused the material to react so violently?
Synthomer has developed a novel styrene acrylic binder with excellent water resistance, scrub resistance and hiding power, and that potentially enables the paint and coatings industry to optimize binder and pigment dosage, resulting in paint property, carbon footprint and cost improvements.
The EPS 2400 series is a new line of waterborne acrylic resins that wood coating formulators can use to develop high-performance solutions for industrial applications, as well as cabinetry, furniture and flooring.
Featuring in-can transparency, EPS 2420 is a binder for interior and exterior wood applications, such as multi-coat enamels and varnishes with exceptional leveling properties and UV resistance.
