Scientists and conservators have teamed up to develop and test a new, high-tech way to protect silver art objects and artifacts, using coatings that are mere nanometers thick.
In addition to high-performance corrosion protection, the use of environmentally sound production methods is playing an increasingly important role for metal-processing businesses.
After an inauspicious introduction more than a half-century ago, vinyl acetate-ethylene technology finally appears poised to go mainstream in the coatings market.
Experiments with a water-based thixotropic pigment paste have shown that the throughput is a key parameter in the grinding of such a material with a non-ideal flow behavior.
LUXAN effect pigments belong to the group of pearlescent effect pigments that are composed of low refractive transparent substrates coated with high refractive metal oxides, e.g., titanium dioxide or iron oxide.
Newer ultrafine nepheline syenite sizes have refractive index and physical properties that are particularly well suited for use as a performance additive in radiation-curable coatings, inks and adhesives.
RHOPLEX EC-3100 is an all-acrylic polymer designed primarily for use in pigmented elastomeric basecoats to provide adhesion to weathered TPO roofing membranes.
This article highlights a new cobalt-free catalyst that helps to achieve the necessary cure time as well as improve properties associated with water-based, high solids alkyds and alkyd-modified resins.
