A year-long Paint and Coatings Academy program delivers applied education across formulation, processing and polymer science through expert-led short courses.
This work shows how CE10P acrylic and hybrid polyols improve flow, drying speed and appearance in acetone-rich clearcoat formulations while meeting strict VOC limits.
This article details how aerosol paint systems align can design, propellants and water-based chemistries with air quality rules to ensure consistent performance.
An introduction to isocyanates in coatings, covering types, properties, reactivity and key formulation considerations for self-leveling urethane systems.
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.
Co-solvent choice is a significant challenge faced by waterborne coatings formulators, and its influence on early hardness development and early water resistance is often overlooked.
Can UV/EB technology serve as a sustainable solution to the energy crisis? This article examines the factors driving UV/EB technology, supported by case studies demonstrating how it enables innovative manufacturing processes that consume less energy, yet also meet or exceeds air quality standards without requiring add-on pollution controls.
