According to BASF, the new white oil-based defoamer demonstrates excellent and persistent defoaming efficiency, excellent compatibility across acrylic PSA systems, and good oil-slick resistance during storage for adhesive formulations.
Growing demand for biocides across industries such as paints and coatings, oil and gas, personal care, and food and beverages will be driven by the need for their antifungal, antibacterial, and antimicrobial properties.
An engineered polysaccharide additive, alpha 1,3-glucan, offers formulation options for wood adhesive systems to advance performance and sustainability.
Selected as part of the event’s technical presentation schedule, Michelman featured its waterborne metal coating protection solutions that control corrosion and coefficient of friction (COF).
At the recent 34th Biennial Western Coatings Symposium and Show, Michelman shared information regarding its line of low-VOC surface modifiers for exterior wood coatings and sealants.
Eastman’s new cellulose esters reportedly meet requirements for use in certain food contact applications under regulations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (21 CFR), European Commission (Regulation 10/2011), and the Swiss Ordinance on Materials & Articles in Contact with Food (SR 817.023.21).
Eastman recently announced the launch of a new portfolio of 13 cellulose esters for use in food contact applications such as inks, adhesives, tapes and labels, and internal can and other coatings.
The Fire Retardant Additives (FRA) business unit of the Huber Engineered Materials (HEM) division of J.M. Huber Corp. recently announced that its fine precipitated hydrate (FPH) phase-two capacity expansion project at the Martinswerk Plant is scheduled to be completed by the end of this year.
Using hydrophobic surface-treated fumed silica in combination with a novel non-yellowing amino-functional silane adhesion promoter leads to an optically clear silane-modified polymer-based adhesive system with superior color stability.
The hybrid adhesive and sealant market is projected to grow from $4.6 billion in 2016 to over $7.5 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 8.6%.1 Silane-modified polymers (SMPs) are the resins of choice for this market, as they provide excellent adhesion and elasticity.
