Ultra Low VOC High Performance Waterborne Coatings

Product Number: 41206-276-SG

Author: Patricia M. Peterson

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

The twenty-first century presents a major challenge to coatings manufacturers. The amount of solvent allowable in many coatings has been reduced considerably. In order to attain these lower VOC’s, coatings formulators are searching for resins that have low VOC demand, as well as ways of formulating that can replace the high volumes of solvent used in the past

Utilizing Sustainability ScoreCards to Quantitatively Analyze the Sustainability Impact of Applied Linings Systems

Product Number: 51324-21040-SG

Author: Matthew Fletcher

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

Sustainability ScoreCards have been developed to allow the sustainability impact of paints to be easily assessed by the paint industry. The paper introduces sustainability ScoreCards to demonstrate the reasoning between the different data that has been included and the benefits that ScoreCards can offer the paint industry. The data includes embodied CO2e, embodied water, CO2e downstream, lining consumption, durability, product hazard, chemical safety, and VOC content. The usefulness of the information this data provides will be reviewed, along with how the ScoreCards can be used to benchmark the sustainability of different systems allowing a quantified sustainability decision to be made. Using a paint system approach, calculated by area, gives improved insight to the applied system, and makes it easier to use in the paint industry, compared to individual product declarations based on weight of products. ScoreCards are also significantly quicker and cheaper to produce than EPDs, making them a more realistic document to produce for a paint company that may have hundreds of different paints that can result in thousands of different system permeations.
