This company has developed a BPA-free coating based on acetoacetyl- modified soybean oil (Soy-PK) and demonstrated its potential application for coating food and beverage containers.

This application study shows that biobased SA can be used as a diacid to replace IPA and AA in a polyester resin for metal coatings.

Biobased polyols based on C18 diacid may be used to expand product offerings with renewable materials in applications such as automotive molded parts, hot melt adhesives, high-performance coatings and sports equipment.

This work has validated a place for some novel new polyols with high recycle content combined with high performance for specialty coating applications, where protection of metal surfaces is paramount.

A sampling of some of the technologies that will be on display at the 2016 American Coatings Show.

This study has shown that low-VOC waterborne fluorourethane paints can be formulated that are equal to the performance of solventborne fluorourethane paints when used on metal.

This new crosslinking innovation can now enable floor finish producers to develop effective solutions for customers needing products that have green certifications, while also offering the opportunity to extend the environmental benefits of zinc-free floor finishes to all users of traditional zinc-based floor finishes.

Epoxy powder coatings are used in a variety of applications, and whether the coating is decorative, functional or both, a coating’s properties are critical.

Polycaprolactone polyols should preferably be used as resin modifiers in formulations that are needed to be taken to the next level. They can be used in formulations that need a twist in the right direction to meet VOC regulations and tough technical demands.

With more focus on environmental protection all over the world, powder coatings will have greater application prospects in the near future.
