Powder formulators enhance the performance of a coating formulation with the addition of a judicious amount of flow modifier and degassing agent. But be careful, a little goes a long way.
Developments in the area of information and communication technology are creating considerable potential and acting as a catalyst for innovations in automation, machinery and application systems.
The improved adhesion, good corrosion resistance and good QUV gloss retention show that the hydrophobic resin in the hybrid polymer can be used to reduce the effects of high acid on corrosion and of styrene on QUV gloss retention.
Following the results from this study, biobased preventative is an excellent and environmentally acceptable alternative to petroleum-based products in temporary corrosion protection.
In this two-part series, we explore how this carefully crafted design of experiments (DOE) isolated and contrasted the impact and interaction of three key process variables: film build; atomization, and coating viscosity (as determined by temperature).
One of the appropriate markets for recycling condensation polymers (polyester, polycarbonate, polyamide) is the coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers market (CASE), where many of the useful components for high performance already rely on varying levels of condensation polymers.
UV LED cure is becoming more and more prevalent in several converting areas. UV-curable inkjet has used UV LED cure for pinning for many years. Acrylated amines can be used to either increase UV LED cure speed at existing PI concentrations, or maintain UV LED cure speed at reduced PI concentrations.
The Multi-Shot Pyrolyzer provides many advantages and immediate quality improvements in a coatings laboratory. Virtually any material (liquid or solid) can be chemically characterized using this technique.
The color measurement ecosystem can benefit from this mobile app-based solution, as a compliment to traditional methods. Portability and speed, coupled with device accuracy, make this emerging technology worth looking into.
