Formulation choices — especially binder selection — play a pivotal role in preserving reflectivity and performance in white acrylic roof coatings.
Bullet Point: Binder Chemistry Impacts Reflectivity Durability

The University of South Florida reduced cooling costs and improved energy efficiency by applying a heat-reflective exterior coating that lowers building surface temperatures by up to 40 °F.

A new thermal additive enhances energy efficiency and fire resistance, reducing heat absorption, improving emissivity, and meeting stringent environmental and building performance standards.

A new dri-mist coating with 92% light reflectance value aims to enhance visibility and energy efficiency in large commercial spaces.

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.

The applications of daylight fluorescent colorants are so diverse that an entire industry has developed to prepare and tailor these materials to be compatible with and to maximize their luminous performance across a range of product categories. Unlike conventional colorants, these materials are able to absorb shorter wavelengths of sunlight and then re-emit that light at longer wavelengths, producing a visual experience of color intensity above and beyond anything we expect to see from light.

AkzoNobel has launched an ultrareflective powder coating that can increase the effective output of commercial lighting fixtures by up to 30 percent.

Through collaborative research methods, new solutions are becoming available to meet rising industry needs from decreasing your VOC footprint to using polymer technology to bridge the gap in packaging and coating needs.
