A Novel, 100% Solids, Zero VOC Coating System for Long Lasting and Maintenance Free Foul Release and Inhibition

Product Number: 41211-610-SG

Author: Russell Giudici

Publication Date: 2011

$20.00

Marine fouling is a significant problem in many industries. Since the ban of tributyl tin, a toxic additive prevalent in anti-fouling coatings, various new technologies have emerged to combat this problem. Silicone elastomers are a popular, non-toxic solution to fouling in numerous marine environments. These coatings, however, still incorporate volatile organic compounds (VOC) to aid in application and often require routine maintenance or recoating in approximately 5 years.

Comparison of Zero VOC Xylene Substrates as Replacements for Xylene and Toluene

Product Number: 41215-920-SG

Author: David Pasin, Diego Lopez Arias

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Xylene and Toluene are used in the formulation of plastics, coatings, composites, and paints. However, Toluene is designated as a Hazardous Air Pollutant (HAP), and Xylene is designated as both a HAP and an emitter of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC). HAPs and VOCs are hazardous to human health and the environment and regulators are increasingly restricting their emission.

Creating More Sustainable Industrial Coatings: Driving VOCs of High Performance Waterborne Direct-to-Metal Coatings Below 50 g/L

Product Number: 41215-923-SG

Author: Bridget Dombroski, Mary Kate McCrea, Leo J. Procopio

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Lowering the volatile organic content (VOC) of industrial coatings has become a requirement in many reformulation and new coating development efforts, oftentimes in order to meet increasingly strict regulations. Driving VOC to lower levels and performance to higher levels can also offer a more sustainable coatings solution for the end-user. Lowering VOC and maintaining (or improving upon) high performance is often the goal when developing a new formulation, but the two objectives can be at odds with each other.

Defining High Performance At Low VOC: Waterborne Acrylic Dtms Under 25 G/L

Product Number: 51322-17829-SG

Author: Kathleen Auld, Matthew Padaon

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Today, the push to find more environmentally friendly solutions for paints and coatings has become very important. Paints contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs), that contribute to ground level ozone and smog and can be harmful to human health and air quality. VOC limits for formulated coatings have been instituted by local governments to meet the highest air quality standards. One such regional regulation set a limit of 100 g/L for industrial maintenance coatings in the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) of Southern California in 2007.

Enhancing the UV Durability of Epoxy Coatings: Waterborne Acrylic-Epoxy Hybrid Coatings for Steel

Product Number: 51218-139-SG

Author: Hank Bernacki, Zhenwen Fu, Bingquan Li, Denise Lindenmuth, Leo Procopio

Publication Date: 2018

$20.00

Due to their excellent performance properties, epoxy coatings are commonly used over metal and concrete substrates in applications where corrosion protection and chemical/solvent resistance are key requirements. One weakness of these epoxy coatings is their poor UV durability. Epoxy coatings typically have poor gloss and color retention as well as poor resistance to chalking on exterior exposure.

Global Environmental Regulations Drive New Technologies in Epoxy Coatings

Product Number: 41215-927-SG

Author: Marcelo Rufo

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Global Environmental Regulations have driven many coatings developments over the last decades. Today´s regulations around worker safety and environment protection are seen as important drivers in new product development. More recently such regulations are spreading widely, as people want to live on a planet where everyone can enjoy a better quality of life, breathe clean air, where rivers and oceans are preserved, and the impact of humans on wildlife is reduced.

Green Coatings from a Global Perspective

Product Number: 41216-967-SG

Author: Don Futch

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

This paper will examine the different restrictions and indicators currently used to classify coatings as ‘Green”. It will also take a brief look at the Organizations and Governmental agencies that classify coatings as ‘Green”. The process of how to certify and the certifying organizations will be discussed. Finally, I will propose some guidelines to develop a universal global standard based upon existing commonality that would then have to be accepted by the global sanctioning bodies and users, while overcoming the bureaucratic hurdles and other obstacles and challenges in the way

Green Energy Conservation of DoD Ships and Offshore Platforms

Product Number: 41209-495-SG

Author: Mark Thompson, Cinttya Morgan

Publication Date: 2009

$20.00

During military ship and offshore platform construction weight, International Maritime Organization (IMO) approvals, and VOC content are a prime consideration. There is a need of commercial products that can fulfill International Maritime Organization (IMO)/Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) and Qualified Product List (QPL) approvals, are lightweight, and contain no VOC, are environmentally friendly, and can be used for different applications

Green Paints...From ‘Paint is a part of the Problem’ to ‘Paint is a Part of the Solution

Product Number: 41215-926-SG

Author: Nawras A. Rimawi

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

VOC was one of the paint emissions accused to be an environmental hazardous material and among the main causes for SBS (Sick Building Syndrome). The term SBS was coined in the late 1970's to describe situations where building occupants experienced acute health problems. “According to WHO (World Health Organization), 4.3 million people a year die from the exposure to in-house air pollution”
