Researchers working at NanoQAM, the nanotechnology research centre of the University of Quebec (Montreal, Canada), are successfully innovating novel polymer coatings on the basis of data measured using a Viscotek high-temperature gel permeation chromatography (HT-GPC) system from Malvern Instruments.

This new water-based barrier coating product line  provides a significant advance in the performance of water-based high barrier nanocomposite coatings.

Predispersed nanoparticles can be very beneficial to the life cycle of coatings.

Scientists and conservators have teamed up to develop and test a new, high-tech way to protect silver art objects and artifacts, using coatings that are mere nanometers thick.

This article focuses on two marine coating applications.

Employing a novel chemistry, CNT inks can now be printed using standard commercial printing equipment. 

This paper discusses UV-curable super-hydrophilic anti-fog coatings.
