Acid-Induced Corrosion of Hospital Facilities from Construction Processes

Product Number: 51323-19062-SG

Author: Kimberly Steiner

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

A new building was under construction for a hospital campus for specialized treatment. For logistical reasons, a multi-million dollar piece of medical equipment was placed in one room prior to completion of construction. A pedestal is installed on the floor and houses copper gas tubing and electrical connections for the equipment.

Myth-Busting Part 2: Comparing Accelerated Exposure Performance between Bio-Based and Petroleum-Based Hardeners

Product Number: 51324-21096-SG

Author: Daniel Wang

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

As sustainability continues to be an industry driver for innovation, bio-based raw materials for organic coatings give formulators the option to create a more sustainable product. However, a common myth is that bio-based materials perform worse than their petroleum-based counterparts. This paper is a follow-up to the work shown at AMPP 2023 with accelerated weathering and corrosion results for multiple systems crosslinked with either a petroleum-based or bio-based hardener. With these results, the hope is to improve the industry’s perspective on bio-based raw materials and dispel any myths that associate sustainable solutions with lower performance. In addition, this paper serves as an example on how raw material suppliers can help paint manufacturers achieve their sustainability initiatives through the offerings of bio-based alternatives.

Myth-Busting: Proving that Bio-Based Raw Materials can replace Petroleum-Based Products

Product Number: 51323-19331-SG

Author: Daniel Wang

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

With growing concerns of climate change and carbon footprint, many companies and industries are
looking into ways to reduce their impact on the environment. For the coatings industry, this can be
achieved by tackling a multitude of different sources that contribute to climate change such as energy
consumption, solvent emissions, and more. Recently, there have been more discussions on bio-based
raw materials and their contribution to meeting sustainability goals set by both resin and paint
manufacturers.
