The new range provides a complete spectrum of sheens, from high gloss to dead flat, and draws inspiration from the rich heritage and craftsmanship of trusted, Italian-inspired formulations. 

Two-component aliphatic polyurea coating systems offer fast return to service and high film builds, and their use is on the rise. This article studies the network structure of these coatings to improve their properties.

Innovators can compete for this award honoring new products or technologies brought to market. The award is presented by the American Chemistry Council’s (ACC) Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI).

In a report released by ResearchandMarkets, the PU coatings market was valued at $18.26 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 5.21% through 2028.

This article examines the physical properties of polyurethanes and polyureas, their differences, and a technology review with benefits and drawbacks of sub-coating classes.

Cast elastomers based on PDO-sebacate polyol exhibit an excellent combination of tensile properties, abrasion resistance, thermal, hydrolytic, and solvent resistance, as well as adhesion to metal substrates. These are desirable properties for cast elastomers intended for applications as protective coatings for pipes, and coatings for sieves typically used in drilling and mining applications. 

The ISCC PLUS-certified products manufactured at Stahl’s Waalwijk and Leinfelden locations include selected polyurethane coatings for flexible materials such as textiles, film and paper. The polyurethanes are made with between 20% and 70% renewable attributed biomass and recycled content.

The new plant serves fast-growing demand in China and the new production facility is expected to start up in 2025.

The 65^th Polyurethanes Technical Conference will take place Sept. 25-27, 2023, at the Marriott Rivercenter in San Antonio, and feature discussions on key regulatory and policy issues, educational sessions, and the latest innovations in the polyurethanes industry.

Moving to more environmentally benign monomers is essential for the continuation of a highly beneficial relationship with polymers. This shift creates an opportunity to simultaneously access new property profiles. New polyols synthesized using a high-purity isosorbide illustrate what is possible.
