Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC), a bio-based and multi-functional product made of cellulose, is a new alternative to traditional thickeners. Learn how MFC increases the tensile strength of elastomeric acrylic roof coatings without sacrificing the elongation, and how it reduces the water absorption, as well as increases the adhesion of coatings.
The new coating delivers a finer mica effect that enables an ultra matt surface to change appearance depending on the way light reflects on it, giving architects a quality finish that also offers superdurability.
Following a series of judging days conducted by an independent panel of judges in each category, the BCF reached a carefully selected short list from a variety of high-quality entries. The winners will be announced at the Awards dinner on Thursday, October 19.
