Manufacturing processes in the coatings industry often result in significant waste generation and environmental impact. This article will explore how liquid product recovery
technology is revolutionizing the paint and coatings industry by minimizing waste, reducing resource consumption, and improving overall efficiency.
The iconic 18th century windmills at Kinderdijk in the Netherlands are being preserved with help from innovative coatings to restore them to their original colors.
Perfectly integrated into an already-existing building containing an overhead crane, the new preservation line allows not only a higher material throughput, but also improves the entire production flow, resulting in shorter lead times.
Beautiful, historic homes are most-often found in historic districts near city centers. The mission of these historic districts is to preserve homes that sometimes were standing at the city’s founding. But older historic homes can be hard to maintain, and there are many other challenges those homeowners face.
A global supermajor energy client in the Gulf of Mexico needed insulation applied to its flowline and riser pipes. This high-pressure, high-temperature project requried the application of a castable thermal insulation coating, designed for subsea pipelines.
Many of today’s products must withstand near-constant use or exposure to the weather. Self-healing paints and coatings are still a relatively niche area of study, but it’s easy to see the widespread appeal. This article highlights the abundant practical applications for formulators and companies to explore.
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.
Automotive fasteners are tasked with preventing the connected components from becoming dislodged, while also facilitating easy disassembly for servicing or repairs. Nothing poses a greater threat to their efficacy than the accumulation of rust on their surface. Zinc-nickel surface finishing offers a solution that makes minimal contributions to the carbon footprint, thus firmly advancing us along the road to a carbon-emission-free future.
