Novel Waterborne Technology Paves a New Roadway for Alkyds

As VOC regulations continue to drive coatings development, waterborne alkyds are progressively being utilized further due to their attractive environmental profile. Advancements in waterborne alkyd chemistry have provided the first waterborne biobased resin for pavement marking coatings. Through strategic selection of alkyd monomers and the appropriate balance of the emulsification aids, a shear stable alkyd latex resin that shows exceptional performance in waterborne traffic marking formulas has been developed.

This selection conveys synthesis and formulation considerations, while focusing on the benefits that this technology offers the traffic coatings market. Performance of alkyd latex traffic paint was compared to commercially available solvent and water-based pavement coatings. The results demonstrate performance properties that make it a valid alternative to current technologies for this end-use market
