Garamite® mixed mineral thixotropes (MMTs) can help with key properties such as sag resistance and settling resistance while maintaining a reasonable package viscosity.
The Spraytec laser diffraction particle size analyzer from Malvern Instruments helps optimize the application of water-based furniture coatings using airless spraying.
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.
ADDITOL XW 6544 represents a new class of defoamer/deaerator technology that allows for improved appearance as well as effective defoaming characteristics, especially in low-VOC, high-viscosity coatings applied by airless application.
