Product Number: 41208-432-SG

Author: Barry Marcks

Publication Date: 2008

$20.00

In June of 2006 the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) implemented new volatile organic compound (VOC) requirements for industrial maintenance coatings. Two years prior to this date The California Department of Transportation started looking for a replacement latex resin that would meet these new requirements and still have the same properties as currently used industrial maintenance bridge coatings.

Global Environmental Regulations Drive New Technologies in Epoxy Coatings

Product Number: 41215-927-SG

Author: Marcelo Rufo

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Global Environmental Regulations have driven many coatings developments over the last decades. Today´s regulations around worker safety and environment protection are seen as important drivers in new product development. More recently such regulations are spreading widely, as people want to live on a planet where everyone can enjoy a better quality of life, breathe clean air, where rivers and oceans are preserved, and the impact of humans on wildlife is reduced.

Green Coatings from a Global Perspective

Product Number: 41216-967-SG

Author: Don Futch

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

This paper will examine the different restrictions and indicators currently used to classify coatings as ‘Green”. It will also take a brief look at the Organizations and Governmental agencies that classify coatings as ‘Green”. The process of how to certify and the certifying organizations will be discussed. Finally, I will propose some guidelines to develop a universal global standard based upon existing commonality that would then have to be accepted by the global sanctioning bodies and users, while overcoming the bureaucratic hurdles and other obstacles and challenges in the way

Innovative Colorants for Coatings Industry (Easy Dispersing and Low VOC Colorants)

Product Number: 41210-547-SG

Author: Wolfgang Winter, Romesh Kumar

Publication Date: 2010

$20.00

Cost effective and optimum pigment dispersion is the most important aspect of color and appearance of coatings. Brilliant hues and high chroma are achieved by a perfect pigment dispersion where primary pigment particles are achieved and are well stabilized in the finished paint. The dispersion process is very critical, very time consuming and cost-intensive, and consists of continuous reduction of the pigment agglomerates into smaller size aggregates, and finally into primary particles.

Low VOC Autocatalytic Anti-Corrosion Primers

Product Number: 51217-046-SG

Author: William Heaner, Fabio Aguirre-Vargas, Nita Xu, Cody Clinton

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

Anti-corrosion coating systems typically rely on viscous two-component systems with high VOC content. Autocatalytic, moisture-cure polyurethanes (MC PU) offer a unique approach to develop one-component coatings, which are easier to apply compared to 2k systems and usually can be formulated with lower VOC content.

Low VOC Vinyl and Vinyl/Acrylic Coatings Systems

Product Number: 41210-541-SG

Author: Daniel Harrison, John Przybylo

Publication Date: 2010

$20.00

Throughout their history, the value of vinyl and vinyl/acrylic coating systems has been well documented; from the superior corrosion protection of vinyl to the all-around durability and appearance that acrylics lend, vinyl and vinyl/acrylic coating systems are well known for their ability to protect as well as beautify all types of industrial, transportation, marine and hydraulic structures. Within the past few decades increasingly stringent air-quality standards and environmental regulations curtailed the use of the solvents used in many coating systems, including vinyls and vinyl/acrylics.
