Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings are characterized by their high wear, abrasion, and corrosion resistance. This article discusses DLC coatings types, mechanical properties, coefficient of friction, surface properties, electrical properties, corrosion resistance properties, and uses.
In an industrial technical coatings environment, continuous-loop and start-stop paint lines have proven to be highly beneficial in terms of efficiency and productivity, and when combined with the expertise of a third-party technical coatings provider, manufacturers can optimize their production processes and improve the quality of their finished products.
While recent years have witnessed a bit of a slowdown in the growth of the automotive sector, the value produced by body shops and repair facilities has increased significantly, which illustrates the market for automotive refinish coatings' potential for expansion.
Color collateral has always been designed with consumers in mind. Past market needs continue to drive innovation toward accurate and easy-to-use collateral products. A new approach to color sampling for transparent and semi-transparent stain applications is discussed in this article.
The challenge for the resort’s designers and architects was to find a powder coating that could protect aluminum surfaces and girders in a climate of extreme heat and corrosive salt spray from the coast, and with a finish that would complement the warm terracotta tones of Dubai’s landscape. Read about the solution.
On the coast, painted walls tend to fade faster, are pummeled with wind-driven rain, are exposed to salt around the clock, and are breeding grounds for bio-growth like algae and fungus. One seven-story Destin, Florida, resort nestled between Choctawhatchee Bay and the Gulf of Mexico was looking for a fresh update but wanted more longevity for its money.
Based on a DBS Interactive study that audited several hundred manufacturer websites using Google’s Lighthouse tool, the vast majority of websites for B2B manufacturing companies don’t meet the latest best practice criteria for technical performance and user experience.
As manufacturing becomes more automated or dependent on robotic technologies, people have become more interested in how this progress could improve paint preparation. Options in high-tech mixing and paint-filling equipment are explored in this article.
