FAMIS announced new distributor agreements with S.E.F. Italia and Menphis S.P.A. for technology serving the metallic surface finishing industry.

Water-based epoxy resin and curing agents have been developed that can used together as a system to provide corrosion protection coatings with low VOC content, less than 100 grams per liter.

Conversion to UV coatings allow tube manufacturers to run faster production speeds, greatly reduce their shipping costs/handling of coatings and implement a much cleaner, green, sustainable process, while delivering an improved ROI to the bottom line.

This article studies the effects of weathering on the topcoats and focuses on a commonly used acrylic topcoat that offers a balance of properties such as chemical resistance, condensation resistance, gloss retention and other mechanical properties.

The Fluropon coatings provide outstanding resistance and durability to the different weather conditions of Iowa.

This work deals with the assessment of fungal deterioration on different anti-corrosive coatings using electrochemical techniques (corrosion potential and ionic resistance).

Inhibispheres are a new class of corrosion inhibitors for powder coatings. Inhibispheres utilize a sustained release technology based on corrosion inhibitor microencapsulation via a silica matrix.

A novel powder coating technology using hydroxyalkylamide is pre¬sented in this article for robust manufacturing and processing efficiency using a single resin system.

Eddyfi Technologies' world headquarters building is a model of contemporary architecture, biophilic design and sustainable materials – from the generous application of locally sourced wood and use of large, triple-glazed windows, to the selection of solvent-free PPG Coraflon coatings to protect and embellish its muted aluminum cladding.
