There are many factors to consider when optimizing your coating system for corrosion resistance. Waterborne coatings present a unique challenge due to their inherent hydrophilic nature and ability to readily conduct electrons. Waterborne resin technology has evolved greatly since its inception. If formulated properly one is able to meet and or exceed the performance of their solvent borne counterparts.
There are many factors to consider when optimizing your coating system for corrosion resistance. Waterborne coatings present a unique challenge due to their inherent hydrophilic nature and ability to readily conduct electrons. Waterborne resin technology has evolved greatly since its inception. If formulated properly one is able to meet and or exceed the performance of their solvent borne counterparts. Prior to choosing a suitable anti-corrosive, the formulator must be aware of the many factors that can influence the end performance of their system. These factors include resin type, substrate(s), PVC, required film thickness, application of the coating, environmental regulations where the coating will be sold/applied, and the end use of the coating, to name a few. When choosing a suitable anticorrosive, the formulator must have a basic understanding of corrosion, coupled with how these various non-toxic anti-corrosives work to slow the corrosion process. In this lecture we will go over the basics of corrosion, explore different mechanisms of corrosion protection specific to waterborne coatings, discuss the importance of anti-corrosive selection, and finally talk about how to formulate with non-toxic anti-corrosives.
While traditional cleaning solutions can be time consuming, costly and ineffective, dry ice blast cleaning provides a completely dry solution that cleans faster and more efficiently, while reducing downtime and supporting environmental initiatives. This presentation will discuss the basic concepts of dry ice cleaning. Participants will learn the benefits of the process, as well as, how it can benefit their production, improve quality, and support an environmentally responsible production environment.

Cashew Nutshell Liquid (CNSL) is a non-edible, renewable biomaterial extracted from the honeycomb-like structure of the cashew nut. Its main component, cardanol, is produced by the decarboxylation of CNSL and it contains a highly hydrophobic aliphatic side chain. Cardanol is used in the synthesis of phenalkamines, which are widely used in marine, protective and industrial coatings applications. Historically, phenalkamines have been used in solvent systems, but recently, a new technology was developed that enables a very hydrophobic phenalkamine to be stably packaged in water.
Structure modified, nanostructured synthetic fumed silica technology was introduced more than a decade ago for improving scratch resistance and mechanical strength across coatings and adhesives / sealant industry fields. New developments now create novel design which offer environmentally sustainable improvement to anti-fouling performance in marine environments.
