It was found that samples having a higher percentage of CNSL showed excellent corrosion scratch properties, and successfully passed the humidity and blistering tests. Analyzing the overall performance of the films derived from each sample, it may be said that all the samples showed good mechanical, chemical and corrosion resis¬tance, keeping cost in mind.

Soybean oil is economical and abundantly available from soybeans sustainably grown in the United States. The hydrophobic nature of this bio-based raw material is a dominant performance attribute in a multitude of coatings applications.

This technology is a new approach to ceramic matrix composites, introducing advanced-ceramic engineered feedstocks to the world of geopolymers.

The requirements that are normally in balance in a DTM can be achieved using Inhibispheres (IS) due to their size, shape, refractive index and the sustained release of their unique corrosion inhibitors.

This article presents encouraging results from a designed study looking at the combination of recycled and renewable feedstocks, as well as the use of non-metallic corrosion inhibition, resulting in a new product for superb metal substrate protection.

Within the universe of wear-resistant thin films, diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings have emerged as the ideal solution for demanding physical applications where components are under high loads or subject to extreme friction, wear and contact with other parts.

Due to their tailored system compatibility, the new sili¬cone surfactants are suitable for use in both aqueous one-component systems as well as in aqueous two-com¬ponent polyurethane and radiation-curable systems.

Anti-fingerprint formula allows application developers, original equipment manufacturers to improve glass-based surfaces in variety of industries.

Montaha Hidefi, VP of Color Forecasting at the Color Marketing Group (CMG), Color Landing Studio, discusses CMG, the industries it serves, how it forecasts color trends, and what the color predictions are for the coming years.

This article summarizes the materials used in surface coatings or icephobic coatings for preventing ice accretion on substrates.
