Products from the Sansin Corporation and Western Archrib are showcased on the stunning track and field facility, Hayward Field, at the University of Oregon in Eugene.

Mobility, energy and general engineering operations benefit from lower energy consumption, reduced CO2 emissions and longer equipment operating life

This article provides an overview of the classes of self-healing technologies that have been developed, and their ongoing and/or potential uses in the design of coating systems.

Anti-microbial (anti-viral and bactericidal) NANOVA HYGIENE+™ reduces the risk of microbial contamination virtually for all surfaces, including metal, glass, wood, fabrics and plastics by the principle of repelling microbes, offering a non-stick surface to pathogens and self-sanitizing for 90 days.

In order to reduce the structure-borne noise of the rail carriages and create the quietest-possible environment inside, many rolling stock manufacturers use sound deadening. The metal sheets used in the interior construction of carriages – for cladding for example – are covered in sound-deadening materials to dampen the noise caused by the metal sheets.

Turkish wood coatings manufacturer Kubilay Boya has successfully developed an antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal wood coating system.

Customers can now order less than a single box (in quantities as little as 0.9 kg) of selected Interpon Ready-to-Ship powders (there are nearly 500 to choose from) and have them shipped within three business days or faster.

The average molecular weight of a latex can be influenced by a number of factors, but it is often not realized that the number of particles in the latex (which is directly related to particle size) is important in determining molecular weight.

In the development of a low- VOC, self-healing epoxy hybrid primer, this company lever­aged its self-healing technology to design a waterborne protective primer with an unprec­edented combination of corrosion resistance and eco-friendliness.

NanoRustX (NRX) NanoPrime works by chemically reacting with iron and iron oxide (rust) to form iron phosphate and creates a nano bond with both metallic and painted surfaces. The chemically bonded layer is insoluble and extremely corrosion resistant.
