Design of Waterborne Nanoceria/Polymer Nanocomposite UV-Absorbing Coatings: Pickering versus Blended Particles

Optimization of a Waterborne Epoxy Coatings Formulation via Experimental Design

Waterborne Epoxy based coatings were prepared by using a water-borne epoxy resin and a suitable hardener. The formulation and optimization procedure were carried out on the bases of experimental designs by the mixture design technique in which the important paint properties are modeled by using special cubic model. The corrosion behavior of these coatings was investigated using electrochemical ...

Waterborne coatings

Contact: Dr. Charles F. Palmer Ethox Chemicals [email protected] T +1 864 277 1620 They are used in many industrial and architectural applications. The hydrophobic nature of the alkyd polymer makes them good choices when water repellency is important. However, formulating alkyds into low VOC (volatile organic compound) waterborne coatings results in a number of problems, which can be minimised ...

The One-Step Pickering Emulsion Polymerization Route for Synthesizing Organic-Inorganic Nanocomposite Particles

Polystyrene-silica core-shell nanocomposite particles are successfully prepared via one-step Pickering emulsion polymerization. Possible mechanisms of Pickering emulsion polymerization are addressed in the synthesis of polystyrene-silica nanocomposite particles using 2,2-azobis(2-methyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)propionamide (VA-086) and potassium persulfate (KPS) as the initiator. Motivated by potenti...

Synergistic Effect of Addition of Fillers on Properties of Interior Waterborne UV-Curing Wood Coatings

A waterborne ultraviolet (UV)-curing coating was prepared on the surface of wood materials with modification of talcum powder and calcium carbonate (CaCO3). When the waterborne UV-curing coatings on the surface of wood materials (WUVCW) was radiated for 1 min by UV (λ = 365 nm) and dried at 40 ◦C for 10 min, it showed good hardness, adhesion, and impact strength, with controlling the talcum con...
