Unintended heat transfer from industrial infrastructure is an ongoing challenge to worker safety, equipment maintenance and energy efficiency. This company recently introduced MAINCOTE™ IC acrylic resins, intended to create a new category of liquid insulation coating that provides a solution to this challenge by offering low thermal conductivity in an easy spray application.
“We want to provide paint formulators with a product that will help their industrial customers reduce costs and facilitate worker safety,” said Mary Rose Correa, North America industrial coatings field marketing manager. “Waterborne thermal insulation coating formulations containing MAINCOTE IC acrylic resins not only have safe touch properties at elevated temperatures, but also maintain target temperatures with notably lower energy usage vs. without a coating.”
