A one-step photoinduced sol-gel and free-radical photopolymerization process was proven to be an efficient process to synthesize hybrid sol-gel coatings with interesting properties, in particular high corrosion protection performance.
The technology represents a relatively new coatings category, offering key advantages over bitumen pads. These benefits include excellent damping performance, automated application, reduced weight, multifunctional use and simplified inventory.
When this new diacid is used as the system crosslinker in GMA powder powder coatings, the resultant coating has twice the impact resistance as that of the incumbent diacid.
By using carefully selected renewable building block monomers, we can design polyester biopolyols with 100% renewable carbon content that can be used to produce high-performance UV-PUDs suitable for use in many coatings applications.
The improvement in coating performance comes in part from the presence of the hardwearing nanodiamond particles integrated into the polymers, but there is also a change in the overall structure of the coating.
Multi-staged polymers represent fairly new technology that involves a mixture of polymers with different Tg ranges, resulting in a mix of hard and soft segments.
