UV coatings can deliver faster production speeds, reduce operation costs, and offer no VOC emissions, as evident in two customer case studies; one a sprinkler pipe manufacturer and the other a solar torque tube manufacturer.
PCI’s “Did You Know” column has published a wealth of information about redox chemistries for use in emulsion polymerizations. This edition focuses on its use in aqueous-based polymer dispersions.
One approach to purifying air is to use photocatalytic metal oxides to disrupt some chemical bonds. Such a material was incorporated into coatings and reduced formaldehyde, methyl mercaptan and butanol.
On Demand A new emulsification technology was developed to make traditional stabilizers water dispersible. Optimized combination of several synergistic water-based UVA/HALS blends were designed to meet varying enduse performance expectations of different waterborne coating formulations.
