LANXESS recently announced it will open a new applications development and technical services (AD & TS) laboratory for polyurethane dispersions (PUDs) in Latina, Italy. As part of the existing urethane systems AD & TS center, the new lab will operate as a standalone facility dedicated to PUDs. It has been reportedly built with the scope of enhancing the company’s urethane systems business partnership with clients and end users. Start of operation will be in the third quarter.
The new laboratory will be capable of supporting market needs in a variety of coatings and adhesives applications in leather and textile finishing; plastic, glass and metal substrates coatings; and glass fiber sizing.
