In this research, newly designed multifunctional polyol systems based on a polycarbonate structure and advanced polyisocyanate systems as crosslinkers were investigated in order to improve chemical resistance of coatings.
This study has shown that DMMOPA has a unique combination of balanced physical properties. These physical properties offered DMMOPA-neutralized paints a multitude of performance advantages in a variety of waterborne paint systems as discussed in this article, such as enhanced hardness and solvent resistance in polyol-MF baking coatings, as well as better gloss, scrub resistance, water resistance and corrosion resistance in latex paints.
Sirrus Inc., a developer of next-generation crosslinking platforms for coatings and adhesives, has entered into a joint development agreement with BASF's Coatings Division.
After 15 years of development and countless hours of collaboration across a number of experts, this group of researchers was finally able to crack the code on structural color to develop "omnidirectional" structural color that does not change when viewed from different angles.
Automotive manufacturer BELGEE, a Chinese Belarusian joint venture, opened a new plant in Belarus this month that will build SUVs for the Russian, Belarusian, Ukrainian and Kazakh market.
