Epoxy resins cured by amine hardeners are often first choice in coating and adhesive applications, especially when excellent du-rability is required. The curing reaction forms a dense epoxy-amine network which leads to exceptional mechanical and chemical stability and allows for an extended service life.
This study evaluates a triple resin direct-to-metal coating’s adhesion, flexibility, and impact resistance compared to conventional multi-layer epoxy systems.
New research into zinc-rich primers shows how lower-zinc formulations can meet performance standards while addressing sustainability and application challenges.
The ongoing impacts of climate change are reshaping our daily lives and significantly altering industry requirements. In high-temperature regions, such as the Middle East, outside temperatures have risen dramatically, with summer seasons typically lasting at least for half a year.
Following paper explores innovative flexible epoxy systems designed to address the limitations of two-component (2K) polyurethane coatings, such as toxicity, moisture sensitivity, and high VOC emissions.
A textured epoxy coating for rebar can offer increased bond strength, damage tolerance, and corrosion resistance for both horizontal and vertical concrete projects.
This paper presents the development of a new curing agent that aligns with current market trends and drivers for epoxy flooring. The new curing agent addresses the market's unmet needs in performance and environmental, health, and safety (EHS) requirements in current commercially available systems.
