The new rheological additive (RA) produces strong initial anti-sag results, even under these very low-energy mixing conditions with no added heat. The stability following accelerated aging is also greatly improved relative to the commercial RAs. The new RA activates quickly and does not require a lengthy heat up period during paint or adhesive manufacturing.
This new generation of liquid organic corrosion inhibitors can be used to enhance the performance of nontoxic anticorrosive pigments in direct-to-metal coatings.
Cost-designed pigment preparations can replace standard lead chromates. Pigment preparations and hybrid pigments formulated with weather-fast organic pigments are not inferior to stabilized lead chromates and can even outperform standard products
In automotive refinishing, this technology offers end users a drop-in solution that can accelerate cycle time, help improve profits and reduce material waste – all while providing an enhanced environmental, health and safety profile.
Currently, the market conditions offer favorable opportunities for additional internationalization of sales. The internationalization approach should be well-considered without losing the required flexibility in the market.
Many factors are affected by the presence of microbes and their metabolic byproducts, including viscosity, pH, gas production, odor and color development and plant equipment.
This report ranks coatings manufacturers by coatings sales, and includes information about each manufacturer, including products they manufacture and recent mergers and acquisitions.
There are many aspects to formulating coatings, but glass flakes can offer significant performance improvements in a number of ways and in a wide variety of materials, including elastomeric compounds.
