Manufacturing organizations have incorporated sustainable formulations that supports a circular economy by the inclusion of renewable raw materials, as well as water- and vegetable oil-based products in place of solvent-based like mineral oil.
Evonik has received the 2020 Ringier Coating Technology Innovation Award for its AEROSIL® Fumed Silica Dispersion VP. Disp. WF7620, a new rheology control dispersion designed specifically for waterborne systems.
Sherwin-Williams®, through its Industrial Wood Coatings Division, invited industry professionals at the recent AWFS® Fair in Las Vegas to participate in a “Waterborne Challenge” to determine if they could tell the difference between waterborne and solvent-based finishes.
