The use aluminum CGDS coatings subsequent tinting on castings will increase corrosion resistance artistic products, give them new aesthetic qualities.

This study investigates preparation of melamine formaldehyde / montmorillonite nanocomposite coatings and evaluates its abrasion resistance property as a new material for wood based panel products. The ultrasonicated MF resin/clay blends with different clay loadings were applied in the form of coatings to the saturated decorative paper to prepare thermoset prepregs. Morphology and structure of ...
