A new, multifunctional polymer additive for powder coating formulations makes the formulation easier to disperse during extrusion by promoting pigment wetting and effectively reducing melt viscosity.
Dedicated to delivering low-cure powder coatings for use on heat-sensitive substrates, the new facility features an application lab, process lab, and an analytical and testing lab.
A new category of abrasives is providing options to mitigate powder coating challenges relating to surface prep material performance, environmental profile, and production economics.
The global market for powder coatings is projected to expand in the coming years, potentially reaching $19.9 billion by 2027.1 While the powder coating sector is poised for rapid growth, a prerequisite remains: getting the surface right.
According to AkzoNobel, the extra functionality offered by the inclusion of antimicrobial technology means that building interiors can now be given increased protection against microbes such as bacteria and mold.
Increased demand for products that can improve hygiene has prompted AkzoNobel to accelerate the addition of antimicrobial properties to its Interpon D1000 and 2000 range of architectural powder coatings.
AkzoNobel recently announced that its Powder Coatings business has launched a global range of high-performance primers for complex corrosion challenges.
Specially engineered for curing at temperatures lower than the current standard of 180-190°C, the new offering is TGIC-free polyester, which reportedly saves energy and helps customers to improve their efficiency.
AkzoNobel reports that the €3 million (approximately $3.4 million) investment will support additional supplies of acrylic powder coatings, metallic powder coatings, and powder primers for the automotive sector.
AkzoNobel has announced plans to add three new production lines at its Changzhou powder coatings plant in China, which is the company’s largest facility of its kind in the world.
