Newer ultrafine nepheline syenite sizes have refractive index and physical properties that are particularly well suited for use as a performance additive in radiation-curable coatings, inks and adhesives.

This article focuses on matting agents based on SiO2 from precipitated and gel processes, which are marketed specifically for the UV coatings segment.

This article explores the use of NEAT additives for a UV-curable waterborne resin, which yields a photostable coating. 

This article focuses on two marine coating applications.

For the tenth consecutive year, silver has ranked as the most popular vehicle color in the world according to data from PPG Industries.

Bullet Liner's spray-on qualities offer maximum protection and provides an advanced coating system that is long lasting and impervious to the weather, while delivering improved UV protection in addition to enhanced puncture and abrasion resistance.

This study demonstrates that 2K waterborne polyurethane clearcoats can be a technology of choice in automotive clearcoat applications in order to combine high-demanding requirements and sustainability development concerns. 

Garamite® mixed mineral thixotropes (MMTs) can help with key properties such as sag resistance and settling resistance while maintaining a reasonable package viscosity. 

This paper will review the current use of silica nanoparticles in UV-curable coatings and introduce effective approaches for delivering silica nanoparticles to UV-curable resin formulations without the drawbacks of current solvent- or monomer-based silica nanoparticle dispersions.

A series of new acrylate monomers and oligomers with high renewable carbon content and differentiated physical properties has been developed.
