Conversion coatings imbue metals with special properties. These treatments are generally straightforward and open up a plethora of new applications. However, because of the chemical nature of the process, there are caveats to conversion coating that are important to understand.
Some paint strippers are hazardous, but knowing where to start makes things much easier. Here are the most common types of paint strippers and the best safe paint stripping techniques for different surfaces.
Demand for coatings has not faltered during the pandemic. As a result, the industry remains slow in embracing digitization at scale. At the same time, new computational technologies promise to unlock the value of innovation toward higher performance coatings and streamlined processes.
An extremely thin, hard, diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating decreases the Coefficient of Friction (COF) of components to nearly zero, while increasing wear resistance.
The increased application of high-temperature coatings in the aerospace sector helps the specialty coatings market gain impressive traction and growth. This article offers some reasons why that's the case.
Over the past several years, this company carried out an extensive R&D program and demonstrated full proof of concept for a novel platform process for production of a wide range of inorganic powders based on 27 metals.
Manufacturers have ample commercial motivation to ensure that the products they make are linked back to them, and that's a key aspect of the unique
identification that a SmartPrefix provides.
Encompassing more than 1.5 million square feet of exhibit and meeting space, Pittsburgh's David L. Lawrence Convention Center is a foremost example of an architect integrating the full spectrum of PPG architectural coatings and paints into a single building.
