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.

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.
