Waterborne coatings have well-known benefits including a far-lower VOC-emissions profile, and lower inherent flammability, which make them generally safer to store and handle. There are still some common misperceptions around waterborne coatings, slowing their use. This article debunks a few of the most common myths.
Carbon fiber composite material use is growing in sectors such as aerospace, wind power generation, automotive, and sports/leisure applications. Although corrosion and fatigue resistant, there is less known about the aging resistance of these materials. This study examines the commonly used ultraviolet absorbers, hindered amine light stabilizers, and a novel composite light stabilizer additive to get a better understanding of the weather resistance of carbon fiber composite materials in the industry.
