Eight golden rules have been compiled to ensure effective color creation.

AgriEsters (methyl soyate, palm and coconut esters) are a new, low-cost alternative that can help emulsify old solvent-based resins (bead acrylics, oil-based alkyds and polyterpenes), giving formulators new alternatives.

In this study a higher number of cells were recovered from a diluted, low-nutrient medium than from the undiluted, nutrient-rich medium.

This new silica technology addresses longstanding challenges in manufacturing and also avails a new range of functional silica and silicate products with unique performance profiles that help formulators realize new value in synthetic silica technology.

IR pigments allow paint formulators and coatings chemists to develop differentiated and functional coatings.

This article will provide an introduction to two specific trade remedy laws – those concerning (1) antidumping and (2) countervailing duty investigations. Relief from these trade investigations can protect U.S. production operations, profits and employees.

Building a culture of risk mitigation and management into the chemical supply chain to reduce the probability of an incident or its impact on people or the environment is a priority for responsible managers.

Full mapping of these technologies and quantitative analysis of their impact in both the HPP market and the HP paints and coatings market across the next five years are given in the Smithers reports

Phase 3 of the Chemicals Management Plan (CMP-3), which has just begun, will assess 1,500 substances over the next five years, 30 percent of which are used in the paint and coatings industry.

It seems as if the coatings industry may benefit more by exploring the ideas of those outside the industry.
