General Motors is introducing a flame treatment technology that lets paint stick to plastic vehicle parts like instrument and door panels without using primers that contain solvents and can foul the air.
This paper will review the current use of silica nanoparticles in UV-curable coatings and introduce effective approaches for delivering silica nanoparticles to UV-curable resin formulations without the drawbacks of current solvent- or monomer-based silica nanoparticle dispersions.
