In current practical applications, the classification of attapulgite clay is mainly based on its functions and uses. Colloidal attapulgite clay, combined with other soft clays and suitable additives, can be used in thin-layer coatings such as EPC coatings for casting, anti-corrosion coatings at certain high temperatures, insulation coatings, and anti-oxidation coatings.
Digitalization is transforming many industries. How do paint and coatings suppliers effectively leverage digitalization? What are the pivotal strategic shifts required to succeed in the digital age? What synergies can be unlocked between digital innovation and legacy processes?
Waterborne latexes are produced via emulsion polymerization, in which surfactants or emulsifiers are the key components to control latex properties.
