The high-quality carbon blacks that this innovative technology harvests from end-of-life tires can replace traditional furnace-grade product and can be reused in the production of new tires, rubber, plastics, ink and paints.

Depending on the nature of the application, different levels of the release effect are desired, and demands regarding durability of the release effect vary substantially. Therefore, it makes sense to take a closer look at the specialty additives that create this effect.

This article discusses the major changes in the product development process, many of which have been enabled by the computer revolution.

This study utilized multiple hardness and tack testing procedures in order to fully understand the hardness profile of architectural paints.

In this study, we evaluate the use of broadband mercury, 385 nm LED and electron beam (EB) curing across a range of different acrylic formulations. The different methods of curing are compared by examining their effect on oxygen inhibition, cure speed and material properties.

Tomorrow’s paints and coatings can be much more than a pretty surface. Many of them will be smart, functional materials that respond to, and change, the environments around them.

Cardura E10P glycidyl ester enables the easy production of high-performance, solvent-free waterborne acrylic polyol dispersions.

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.
