New ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene powder provides sliding properties and abrasion resistance for multiple coating applications without using PFAS chemicals.
Silane-modified polyurethane (SPUR) systems find increasingly extensive utilization in adhesive, sealant, and coating products. This study reports on a novel tin-free catalyst that is shown to be significantly more active than industry-standard catalysts in SPUR applications, while providing similar system stability and other end-use properties.
This article reviews several reasons for the excellent physical properties of polyurethanes and polyureas, as well as how these reasons differ between the two chemistries. Included, also, is a technology review and benefit/drawback analysis of several of the sub-coating classes, including conventional thin-film coatings as well as 100% solids, thick-film coatings.
CPI will present the Innovation Award at the conclusion of the 2023 Polyurethanes Technical Conference, taking place at the Marriott Rivercenter in San Antonio, Texas, September 25-27, 2023.
The agreement adds the Witcobond® line of PUDs to Azelis’ existing portfolio of LANXESS Urethane Systems product lines, serving the coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomer (CASE) markets.
Dow Polyurethanes, a business unit of The Dow Chemical Co., announced the opening of a new Polyurethanes Service Center in Romania, expanding an already strong network of more than 20 sites for production, development and technical service across the EMEAI region.
