PCI’s “Did You Know” column has published a wealth of information about redox chemistries for use in emulsion polymerizations. This edition, the third in a series, focuses on its use in aqueous-based polymer dispersions.
The report from MarketsandMarkets projects market growth driven by a surge in demand attributed to stringent regulations imposed by various governments on the permissible levels of VOCs.
This article discusses new developments in water-based UV-curable polyurethanes that offer much-improved 50 °C paint stability in clear, as well as pigmented coatings. It also discusses how these resins address the desired attributes of the coating applicator in increasing line speed through fast water release, improved block resistance, and solvent resistance off the line.
The global water-based coatings market is projected to experience a steady compound annual growth rate in the coming decade. The evolution of resin, additive, and pigment technologies further propels the adoption of water-based paint and coatings, globally. Read about some of the insights into the projected rise of waterborne coatings.
The objective of this collaboration was to showcase the performance of sustainable, soy-based coating materials in real-world formulations, comparing them to benchmarks derived from petroleum-based counterparts.
A new technology in advanced light scattering and TiO2 optimization generates a novel universal coatings system for multiple substrates and market segments. This self-build technology maximizes efficiency to the core utility of paint and coatings (opacity) under which all sub-utilities and benefits reside.
