Part one of this article discusses the theory of optimizing applied hiding and new techniques used to characterize applied paint films to determine the influence of rheology on application.
The unique hybrid chemistry of oxidizable phenolic-based urethanes combines the drying property of fast-drying oeloresinous vehicles, the chemical resistance of phenolics and the toughness of urethanes.
A method to improve the hiding power of latex coatings by using a phosphate ester-based reactive surfactant and, thereby, reduce TiO2 usage is also discussed.
The carbon dioxide-based hardcoats developed in this project offer a unique balance of properties that make them viable alternatives to existing hardcoat technologies, in particular for substances such as thermoplastic polycarbonate.
A century after the first industrial production with the sulfate process and 60 years after the birth of the chloride process, the AT process brings a new facet to this industry.
In contrast to mercury lamps, which emit a broad spectrum of UV photons, the promise of UV LED technology lies in its long lifetime and higher efficiency.
