VOC Reduction in Epoxy Protective Coatings Using VOC-Exempt Solvents

Product Number: 51217-069-SG

Author: Eric Ripplinger, Yong Zhang, John Newton

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

Epoxy solvent-borne coatings are well established for protective coatings due to their outstanding adhesion and corrosion resistance. Since the passage of the Clean Air Act in 1990, coating formulators have developed alternatives to the traditional volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazard air pollutants (HAPs) historically used in solvent-borne protective coatings. The two main approaches employed have been high solids coatings and replacement of solvents with water.

Compliance with California's Prop 65 regulations have become even more complicated since the new Clear and Reasonable Warning labeling rules took effect on August 30, 2018. These changes are a definite game changer. With this legal imperative, companies selling products in California may need to consider specific and proactive compliance strategies to address the various implications of the rule. In particular, the new warning labels will be required to list at least one chemical that prompted the warning, along with its associated health effects.

Water Based Flame Retardant Coating

Product Number: 51322-18184-SG

Author: Sachin Chavhan

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Fire is the biggest threat for the crews in aircraft, ships, submarines, and land vehicles. As a result of such threats there have been use of fire/flame retardants coatings increased exponentially to curb economic and social consequences of fire [1]. There are various types of coatings available to fight against the fire. Two classes of fire protection technologies are being used currently, 1) Fire retardant and 2) Fire resistant. Fire retardant coatings are passive fire protection coatings where such coatings can slow down the spread of the flames allowing more time for evacuation and firefighting. Fire resistant coatings typically inhibiting the flame penetration or do not ignite upon in contact with fire [2].
