Silane-modified polyurethane (SPUR) systems find increasingly extensive utilization in adhesive, sealant, and coating products. This study reports on a novel tin-free catalyst that is shown to be significantly more active than industry-standard catalysts in SPUR applications, while providing similar system stability and other end-use properties.
The two partners signed an agreement to continue their research collaboration at the Catalysis Research Laboratory until 2028. Since the founding of the laboratory in 2006, more than 100 employees from 34 countries have been involved in the development of new processes for homogeneous catalysis and organic synthesis.
“This agreement underscores our commitment and capability in the custom catalysts arena. We’re delighted to be able to work with the Röhm team to enable commercial scale production of MMA,” said Sanjeev Taneja, Head of Evonik Catalysts.
Evonik is integrating its alkoxides business into the catalysts business line. The extensive portfolio of heterogeneous catalysts is thus now complemented by homogeneous catalysts.
Whether you're looking for additives, crosslinkers and catalysts, minerals and extenders, pigments, resins/intermediates, solvents, or more, Brenntag Coatings & Construction has you covered with a broad specialty product offering.
A high-performance catalyst for high solids, long-oil alkyd coating systems, Borchi Dragon can be used in solvent-based architectural, wood and general industrial coatings.
Borchers' work on next-generation cobalt-free catalysis for coatings, led by R&D Director Dr. Neil Simpson, has been featured in MDPI's newly published book, "Iron and Cobalt Catalysts."
