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.

New hydrogen-free diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating technology provides unmatched hardness, smoothness and adhesion for high wear components in super cars, motor bikes and professional motorsports.

It is up to the creative minds of the industry to make use of polysulfide polymer self-healing properties to create uncontested market environments for polysulfide-based sealants, adhesives and coatings, and priceless added value to their customers.

Automobile production of the future is moving away from the production line and toward modular workstations. An important feature is flexible Automatic Guided Vehicles, or AGVs for short.

This article provides further insight in how PLA polyols expand the formulator'’s toolbox for the development of coatings with improved key properties such as hardness, adhesion, solvent resistance and fracture toughness.
