UV LED cure is becoming more and more prevalent in several converting areas. UV-curable inkjet has used UV LED cure for pinning for many years. Acrylated amines can be used to either increase UV LED cure speed at existing PI concentrations, or maintain UV LED cure speed at reduced PI concentrations.
The Multi-Shot Pyrolyzer provides many advantages and immediate quality improvements in a coatings laboratory. Virtually any material (liquid or solid) can be chemically characterized using this technique.
The color measurement ecosystem can benefit from this mobile app-based solution, as a compliment to traditional methods. Portability and speed, coupled with device accuracy, make this emerging technology worth looking into.
In this research, newly designed multifunctional polyol systems based on a polycarbonate structure and advanced polyisocyanate systems as crosslinkers were investigated in order to improve chemical resistance of coatings.
The ultimate goal of field testing is to evaluate and recommend the best performing preservatives that will offer protection of customer coatings across the widest range of potential environmental eventualities for their end-use products.
In this article, various methods are used to investigate why nitrate red pigments from the Ningbo Process display special color characteristics and how the electronic structure has an influence on these color effects.
The CM-M6 multi-angle spectrophotometer from Konica Minolta Sensing Inc. allows customers to measure nonflat automotive samples that in the past have been difficult or impossible to measure with excellent repeatability of color values.
To overcome the drawbacks of powdered carbon blacks, Orion Engineered Carbons is developing carbon black-based pigment preparations that facilitate, and in many cases eliminate, the dispersion step.
Battelle is developing a biobased resin that delivers high performance in a product that cures at temperatures low enough to be used on wood, medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and many types of plastics.
