Advances in Fluoropolymer Resins for Long Life Coatings

Advances in Fluoropolymer Resins for Long Life Coatings
Available for download

Fluoroethylene vinyl ether (FEVE) resins were developed to overcome some of the problems associated with the use of fluoropolymers in coatings. These resins, which yield topcoats with lifetimes exceeding 60 years, can be cured at ambient temperatures for field applications, or at elevated temperatures in the shop. New FEVE resins have been developed to enable formulators to meet air quality regulations while still producing coatings with excellent durability.

These resins, which yield topcoats with lifetimes exceeding 60 years, can be cured at ambient temperatures for field applications, or at elevated temperatures in the shop. New FEVE resins have been developed to enable formulators to meet air quality regulations while still producing coatings with excellent durability. These include solid resins, which can be solubilized with VOC and HAPS exempt solvents, water emulsions, and water dispersions. In addition, new resins with silanol functionality allow the production of coatings which cure without using isocyanates. It has also been found that FEVE water emulsions, which have excellent weatherability but average physical properties when used alone, can be used to improve the weathering of conventional resins like acrylic emulsions. The resulting fortified systems can be used for architectural trade sale paints, concrete coatings, and direct to metal coatings.

The coatings industry is very familiar with shot/grit blasting as a mechanical means of surface preparation. Over the years, operators have worked with manual and automatic blast equipment with its associated dust collection arrangements. The industry is highly competitive, and control on operating costs is critical. Therefore, coaters are always on the lookout for ways to tune their process by lowering costs and increasing productivity.

Additives for Environmentally Friendly Coatings

Product Number: 41210-534-SG
Author: John W. Du
Publication Date: 2010
$20.00

As environmentally friendly coatings, inks, and adhesive systems have evolved; additives have also evolved in chemistry, structure and effectiveness. This overview strives to present these new additive technologies in three areas: surfactants, dispersants, and defoamers. The chemical nature of these additives and subsequent performance in a variety of systems will be described.

A Study of the Effect of Film Thickness and Blast Profile on Accelerated Underfilm Corrosion Creep

The creepage of corrosion underneath a coatings film applied to a steel test panel is often used as a performance test for the anti-corrosion properties of a coating system. Underfilm corrosion creep, also sometimes referred as scribe creep in the laboratory environment, is defined as the degree of corrosion emanating away from a scribe line underneath a coating film applied to a steel substrate.
