This new technology allows the chemist the freedom to better tailor the formulation to the needs of the final application while optimizing the time, cost and performance achieved with various production methods of irradiation curing.
This article demonstrates how to maximize the performance of waterborne acrylic metal coatings using amino alcohols as highly efficient dispersants for pigments.
Polyester-based adhesion promoters (PEAPs) are a series of modified UP resins that can partially replace the main binders in coatings formulations to improve their adhesion to difficult substrates.
This study examines the effect that white fused alumina, nepheline syenite and silicon carbide have on the abrasion resistance of a powder coating system.
This study aims to quantify the impact of enzymatically produced alpha-1,3 polyglucose of different morphologies on the performance of water-based PUDs.
A significant development in the coatings industry is not the latest resin, solvent or additive, it's the way these ingredients can now be bought and sold.
These diamide rheology modifiers allow proper activation over a wide range of application temperatures to allow formulators robust and predictable processing under real-life conditions.
Case studies show that the selection of an appropriate coalescent for applications in latex paints must be supported by appropriate, extensive laboratory tests.
