With CUI and corrosion a perennial problem for oil and gas facilities with massive carbon steel structures, utilizing CBPC coatings that can control corrosion for decades and reduce downtime will only help the bottom line.
Successful incorporation of nanomaterials into optical display coatings relies on the core expertise of engineering finely tuned nanoparticles, dispersal in a variety of solvents and scaling these processes to commercial volumes.
Because of the increased accuracy of data, measurements from spectrophotometers can be compared against standards, without the need to conduct parallel tests, effectively saving time and money in the process.
This new heating technique is achieved by using a transverse conveyance system in which the car bodies are processed sideways through heating zones, which allows for large convection nozzles to be positioned to direct heated air through the windshield opening of the car into the inner cabin areas as well as directly into the engine compartment areas.
Intelli-ion offers a safer, smarter way to replace traditional toxic chemicals and heavy-metal-containing substitutes. It can be easily incorporated into existing coating products, and could even enhance certain coating properties.
The allnex high-reactive polyester resins give the powder coating industry the ability to formulate products for both indoor and outdoor applications with reduced curing times and/or lower curing temperatures.
National specialty chemical distributors will continue to serve as one of the vehicles to identify and understand future needs of the coatings industry. The distributor assists the raw material manufacturer in product development, market promotion and sales success through its strong industry knowledge about the requirements of its customer’s technical, compliance and supply chain departments.
With this powder coating technology, manufacturers can lower operational costs, increase end-product value and provide a mechanism for meaningful differentiation.
Special clays have successfully demonstrated their use as rheological additives in paint and coatings systems. Sepiolite, attapulgite and smectites make up a particular silicate subgroup in the clay family. All of them, under the appropriate processing conditions, produce gel structures that are capable of behaving as shear thinning and thixotropic fluids.
