A new generation of epoxy coatings delivers fast cure speeds, high flexibility and improved EHS profiles without compromising tensile strength or adhesion.
Superior Materials announced a new distribution partnership with Westlake Epoxy, covering the Northeastern, Mid Atlantic and Southeastern United States.
A cutting-edge anticorrosion additive endured 6,000 hours of real-world coastal testing—revealing surprising results, including the standout performance of waterborne acrylic coatings in marine environments.
The UV-curable coatings market is poised for growth, driven by sustainability trends, UV LED curing innovations, and applications in automotive and electronics, among other drivers.
The epoxy resin market size was estimated at USD 11.85 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 12.65 billion in 2024. At a CAGR of 6.76%, it is expected to reach USD 18.74 billion by 2030. The development of the epoxy resin market faces several limitations and challenges, such as volatility of raw material prices, stringent environmental regulations, and sensitivity to external conditions.
A new fast-cure, high UV-resistant curing agent that addresses both performance and EHS gaps in the current market enables a rapid return to service and delivers coatings with exceptional aesthetics at ambient and low temperatures, outstanding carbmation and UV resistance, and extended working times.
The objective of this collaboration was to showcase the performance of sustainable, soy-based coating materials in real-world formulations, comparing them to benchmarks derived from petroleum-based counterparts.
