This article describes the development of siliconized UV light-cured coatings.

Eccentric disc pumps are reliable, easy to operate and safe for site personnel and the environment.

To determine the most suitable equipment for a specific grinding process, it is important that the supplier and end user jointly discuss and develop all requirements and options regarding process and plant in advance.

A sampling of some of the technologies that will be on display at the 2016 American Coatings Show.

The tool accurately predicts the performance of a coating technology - before it has been applied.

The GHS-compliant synthetic labels are chemical, tear and abrasion resistant, and are constructed with a marine-grade adhesive that is waterproof and passes a 90-day seawater submersion adhesion test. Unlike typical labels, which crack and harden in harsh conditions, they are UV resistant with 2+ years of outdoor UV life.

Forward-thinking coatings manufacturers are running industry-specific software applications that more effectively manage their formulas and packaging specifications.

The case study presented here illustrates the importance of testing powders under conditions that simulate the process environment.

Consideration of not only a formulation, but also of the multitude of interactions between components is important when determining the proper dispersion equipment for the task.

Low-energy EB processing is a technology in evolution. After decades of refinement and integration it continues to offer the potential of significantly enhancing production efficiencies and environmental benefits for manufacturing and brand owners focusing on sustainability, consumer safety, cost competitiveness and product differentiation.
