The APE-free additive is supplied at 100% active content and designed to improve pigment dispersion, stability and compatibility across mixed paint chemistries.
New colorant- and base-paint-side options are designed to stabilize rheology across tint strengths while improving sag resistance and formulation efficiency.
Color of the Year announcements reveal shifting strategies in palettes, launches and forecasting, with growing implications for pigment development and coatings formulation.
A sensory innovation translates 70 colors into tactile and auditory experiences, expanding accessibility for blind and low-vision users through Cromopoems.
The world’s first 3D, form-free crystal glass-pigment technology offers a viable solution for high-end color coatings, enhancing visibility while maintaining a thin-layer finish for automotive applications.
Assembled into photonic crystals, brush block co-polymers have demonstrated utility in creating coatings with ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared reflectivity, radar transparency, and the potential to reduce the carbon footprint of performance coatings by up to 50%. One company has set a course to launch a structural color co-polymer based on this unique technology.
