New products are being developed to meet the challenge of delivering low- and zero-VOC offerings, including specialty resins, coalescents/plasticizers, water-based and energy curable colorants, foam control and silicone products.
To comply with VOC regulations, coatings manufacturers have gradually moved away from conventional low-solids, solventborne systems to several emerging technologies, which include high-solids, UV, powder, waterborne and solvent-free systems.1-3
WACKER’s diversity of technologies and broad scope of materials have application in markets and industries such as architectural, masonry and industrial coatings; construction; sealants and adhesives; printing inks; and in packaging, paper and film coatings.
