Paint and Coating Resins & Polymers

RSS

Today, end users of smart coatings prefer those products that provide smart functionality, better weather resistance, high performance, improved productivity and increased service life of the component; reduce maintenance costs; along with ease of application and easy cleaning.

In recent years, the focus has been on the development of durable and sustainable coatings, looking for solutions that would support the transition from fossil to bio-based products with equivalent performance.

Epoxy systems (resins) offer good adhesion, high mechanical and thermal properties, and good chemical resistance as industrial maintenance coatings.

The introduction of energy-curable polyurethane dispersions (UV PUDs) to complement the traditional radiation curing technology profoundly changed the market landscape by bringing coating performance and sustainability to the next level of requirements.

The unique hybrid chemistry of oxidizable phenolic urethanes combines the drying property of fast-drying oleoresinous vehicles, the chemical resistance of phenolics, and the toughness of urethanes.

Functional binders, when incorporated in low-VOC architectural coatings, offer a wide range of benefits in construction applications in terms of texture as well as durability.

Lindsay Doyle's lube emulsion and her customer's acrylic dispersion both crashed and separated like curdled milk. What had caused both systems to crash, and how were the causes related?

The allnex high-reactive polyester resins give the powder coating industry the ability to formulate products for both indoor and outdoor applications with reduced curing times and/or lower curing temperatures.

With this powder coating technology, manufacturers can lower operational costs, increase end-product value and provide a mechanism for meaningful differentiation.
