Novel coatings were derived from a new approach to the selection of 100%
solids polymerizable oligomers and monomers together with specific
nano-material additives.
With energy savings paving the way, nanotechnology has come to the scene to help produce a set of properties that make UV-curable 100%-solids coatings even more attractive. Coating qualities include improved flow characteristics, reduced thinning on sharp edges and an even appearance. Nanoparticles can also increase the hiding power of these coatings by a factor of 20%.
