This follow-up explores the experimental methods behind using simulation tools and physicochemical data to evaluate pigment dispersants.

Fluorescent coatings and LED black lights enhance nondestructive testing, advancing maintenance strategies for lifetime coatings and corrosion prevention in various industries.

Formulators can now harness the power of digital platforms to support informed decisions, accelerate innovation, save time, conserve resources, and enhance efficiency. This article offers insights into achieving digital transformation in a traditional industry, including strategic vision, team building, governance, talent development, and value demonstration.

This month’s Formulating with Mike column continues the discussion on resins, with a focus on epoxy curing agents. When it comes to great adhesion, chemical resistance, and corrosion resistance, an epoxy is hard to beat. There are different epoxy curing agents, and each one provides different properties that can be suited for a wide variety of end-use applications. 

This month’s Formulating with Mike column continues the focus on resins. Mike tests paints with APE-containing and APE-free emulsions for stability, particle size, and final paint quality.

This month’s Did You Know column discusses several classes of hybrid latex particles.

This month’s Formulating with Mike column continues the focus on resins, and discusses acrylic emulsion polymerization, in particular, surfactant design and how it affects the polymerization of a vinyl-acrylic emulsion.
