The present study will demonstrate the utility of aqueous dispersions of functionalized low-molecular-weight hydrocarbon polymers as a formulating tool to develop improved surface treatments for rubber-to-substrate adhesion.

A new, 100%-reactive, energy-saving, solvent-free, low-VOC polymer platform for formulating coatings is now available.

Polyaspartic coatings a one cost-saving solution – offering both increased productivity and reduced labor costs in tough corrosion protection applications.

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.

There are still a lot of developments and technical optimizations to be made in the powder coating industry.

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.
