Conversion to UV coatings allow tube manufacturers to run faster production speeds, greatly reduce their shipping costs/handling of coatings and implement a much cleaner, green, sustainable process, while delivering an improved ROI to the bottom line.
Lightweighting is become increasingly more popular. Read our article to see how this effects the powder coating industry and how we’ll be coating in the future.
The focus of this article is to understand and evaluate the use of novel acrylated amine oligomers to address curing deficiencies in UV LED-cured systems.
To obtain continual improvements in scratch- and abrasion-resistant coatings, a variety of additive technologies have been developed to address this issue. In this study, the article examines additive technologies ranging from surface-active siloxanes and nanocomposite technology to synthetic amorphous silica and co-binders.
A brief overview of RadTech 2020, as well as insights from JP Masson, Director of Sales and Marketing, Nagase America, Chemicals Division, on trends in the curing market.
Recent energy-curable resin developments respond to the increasing demand for suitable oligomers for coatings on plastics in different segments such as consumer electronics, cosmetic packaging and automotive interiors for different specifications and aesthetic requirements.
In this study, polyurethane-acrylic resins with UV functionality have been evaluated according to industry specifications for both interior and exterior industrial wood applications.
Today we face a new regulatory environment as a result of the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety Act (CSA), which went into effect in June of 2016. With the new law in place how does this affect the development and use of UV-curable coatings, inks, etc.?
A new and novel material, method and apparatus are presented incorporating cationic UV energy-cured coatings as OPVs upon paper, packaging and/or woven textiles without limitation for cosmetic and/or functional use.
