New and stricter regulations on the use of certain chemicals can pose significant operational challenges for industry. In printing inks, the use of PTFE is being impacted by new PFOA regulations in Europe as well as Japan and the United States.
Finding the best rubber adhesive involves considering necessary conditions the bonding will have to sustain, the type of rubber, the complementing material, and more.
Innovation continues at a great pace in the area of plating automation. The latest development comes in the form of a fully portable automated electroplating system, able to be moved directly to a specific component for in situ plating.
Teknos developed hygienic coatings for use in public spaces where there is a lot of movement, and infections spread easily. Study results confirm that these coatings are both safe and effective.
A new category of durable, high-tech, all-epoxy coating is dramatically increasing traction and improving safety in a wide range of slip and fall prone areas such as production floors, warehouse space, loading docks, platforms, ramps, and more.
Pest control coatings are truly innovative. By targeting a crawling pest’s inability to climb a smooth surface, a physical barrier around a home can be created with a coating.
The new light-grey primer provides stable surface resistivity, strongly improving the adhesion between primer and base/clear coat on TPO car parts. A colloidal suspension of powder in water can be sprayed with standard liquid equipment devices while performing like a powder coating.
Singulus Technologies has developed a new layer system with titanium for sustainable coatings with the DECOLINE II production line. The innovative coating process reduces the necessary production steps and is, therefore, significantly more economical.
