A DIY garage floor coating system uses a waterborne resin to achieve low VOCs, lasting durability, and high performance for industrial and consumer applications.
Engineers from RMIT University have invented a protective coating for concrete pipes that could help drastically reduce the formation of fatbergs in sewers.
“We are excited to bring these high-quality waterborne and polyurethane coatings to wood finishers in our region," says Cate Donovan, VP of Sales for ML Campbell.
Designed for protection in clear wood finishes, the new product is a TEA-free, low-VOC, 50% solids, self-crosslinking waterborne polyurethane dispersion that delivers high abrasion, chemical, and black heel mark resistance.
The new range provides a complete spectrum of sheens, from high gloss to dead flat, and draws inspiration from the rich heritage and craftsmanship of trusted, Italian-inspired formulations.
Two-component aliphatic polyurea coating systems offer fast return to service and high film builds, and their use is on the rise. This article studies the network structure of these coatings to improve their properties.
Innovators can compete for this award honoring new products or technologies brought to market. The award is presented by the American Chemistry Council’s (ACC) Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI).
In a report released by ResearchandMarkets, the PU coatings market was valued at $18.26 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 5.21% through 2028.
This article examines the physical properties of polyurethanes and polyureas, their differences, and a technology review with benefits and drawbacks of sub-coating classes.
Cast elastomers based on PDO-sebacate polyol exhibit an excellent combination of tensile properties, abrasion resistance, thermal, hydrolytic, and solvent resistance, as well as adhesion to metal substrates. These are desirable properties for cast elastomers intended for applications as protective coatings for pipes, and coatings for sieves typically used in drilling and mining applications.
