The new plasticizer is based on azelaic acid, which is derived from a reliable and proven process of ozonolysis of oleic acid.

This new technology drives higher sustainability options for waterborne, ambient and UV-curable polyurethane dispersion-based coatings.

Architectural low-VOC coatings can be formulated with dibenzoate glycol esters to have increased hardness, block resistance, gloss and scrub resistance.

Liquid-impregnated surface coatings have untapped potential because they can be applied to a wide variety of industries to advance sustainability by reducing waste, increasing product yields, improving production efficiency, providing consistent dosage and enabling product innovation.

Hundreds of coatings industry professionals will gather this month in Lombard, Illinois, for Coatings Trends & Technologies (CTT), a two-day educational conference and show designed to provide chemists, formulators and R&D personnel with the latest coatings research and emerging trends.

Using GPC it is possible to track changes in the MW of polymer- based inks induced by the printing process. This makes it possible to study the impact of polymer concentration and of printer geometries and operating modes on polymer degradation.

A multifaceted exploratory study was conducted on the Resistance to Iron Chloride Test specified in AMS-C-27725 to better understand the rationale of this corrosion acceleration test required for the integral fuel tank coating systems.

Automotive customization and energy-curable technology are an excellent complimentary pair. On top of its fast cure, energy curing offers excellent chemical resistance that can pass many of the automotive crème standards and can also be tailored to have a wide variety of properties.

When underperforming pump technologies were threatening to compromise the quality of its products, along with the reliability and environmental sensibility of its production operations, this company turned to AODD pumps, which have successfully met the needs of the highly critical paint-production operations.

This article presents results comparing thermal initiation of main polymerization to redox initiation at lower temperatures.
