The integration of pigments in coatings for autonomous vehicles presents a unique set of challenges ranging from functionality to aesthetics to regulatory compliance. In response to these needs, a new kind of effect pigment based on borosilicate glass was developed specifically for distinctive silver-grey formulations where a high sparkle is required and has a high radar transparency and offers dark-down flop and opacity.
This article demonstrates two separate methods for achieving burnish-resistant coatings: amine functional silica, which fits easily into existing manufacturing processes; and polysiloxane/silica dispersion, which requires a more complicated process to manufacture.
Read about a full turn-key solution to combat corrosion under insulation on an ammonium-sulphate feed tank. Within the space of 24 hours, the tank was repaired and protected against future corrosion with an industrial composite wrap system.
Regular maintenance preserves the value of your investment for years to come. Knowing what to do ensures your labor lasts, so take an in-depth look at how to maintain and extend the life span of your exterior paint with the right techniques.
Perfectly integrated into an already-existing building containing an overhead crane, the new preservation line allows not only a higher material throughput, but also improves the entire production flow, resulting in shorter lead times.
Beautiful, historic homes are most-often found in historic districts near city centers. The mission of these historic districts is to preserve homes that sometimes were standing at the city’s founding. But older historic homes can be hard to maintain, and there are many other challenges those homeowners face.
A global supermajor energy client in the Gulf of Mexico needed insulation applied to its flowline and riser pipes. This high-pressure, high-temperature project requried the application of a castable thermal insulation coating, designed for subsea pipelines.
Automotive fasteners are tasked with preventing the connected components from becoming dislodged, while also facilitating easy disassembly for servicing or repairs. Nothing poses a greater threat to their efficacy than the accumulation of rust on their surface. Zinc-nickel surface finishing offers a solution that makes minimal contributions to the carbon footprint, thus firmly advancing us along the road to a carbon-emission-free future.
Robert Rae, Managing Director of Sales at GEW, explains, “Spain and Portugal are vital areas to our business, with thriving printing, coating, and converting industries that span narrow web, wide web, converting, sheetfed offset, wood coating, and other industrial applications."
