A new mini-emulsion polymerization technique was developed to produce aqueous preparations of hydrophobic UV absorbers enabling their easy incorporation and effective use in waterborne coatings.
Microfluidics, a wholly owned subsidiary of MFIC Corporation, has devised a methodology to process, deagglomerate and facilitate purification and stabilization of carbon nanotubes so they can be used in an optimal manner, thus achieving enhanced functionality and performance.
HarmoniX is a powerful new AFM mode that provides, for the first time, true nanoscale quantitative material property mapping of adhesion, stiffness, dissipation, peak force and average force for a wide range of materials.
In this paper it is shown that paint thixotropy can be very useful in increasing sag resistance, improving coating appearance and widening the application window.
This paper suggests a simple approach to compiling analytical data in a way that permits identification of typical polymers based on the most prominent and most diagnostic pyrolysate compounds.
F-16 jets flown by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds are being painted with a smooth, fast-drying primer and high-gloss, lightweight, advanced-performance coating (APC) topcoat by PPG Industries’ aerospace business.
