乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 has coatings covered at ECS
乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 is returning to the European Coatings Show (ECS), N眉rnberg, Germany with its largest stand and the most comprehensive range of chemistries and product solutions it has ever displayed for coating, paint, ink and adhesive formulators.
From 8-10 May 2007, technical and commercial experts from across four different divisions of the 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 business will be on hand at N眉rnberg Messe (in Hall 4 at Stand 4-419) to discuss the latest advances in polyurethane, epoxy, methacrylate, titanium dioxide, surfactant, coalescing agents, pigment dispersion and other additives for coatings formulation. Each attending 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 division will promote new products and chemistries that highlight the breadth of the organisation鈥檚 expertise and the steps it is taking to proactively address issues affecting European formulators, developers and product specialists.
In order to meet current and future environmental regulations in terms of VOC (volatile organic compound) for the coatings industry, 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Advanced Materials has been investing heavily in legally compliant technologies that can be employed in a variety of end user markets. At ECS, the team will offer solutions such as waterborne, high solids, solvent free and powder technologies, consisting of resins, hardeners, accelerators, matting agents and crosslinkers 鈥� all of which are suited for heavy duty, ACE, transportation, marine and architecture markets. A paper on waterborne primer systems will be given at the product presentation sessions. And for construction, a new range of ARAFLOOR庐 binder systems will be introduced which is designed to help reduce formulating time and satisfy the rigorous requirements of today's flooring industry.
乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Performance Products 鈥� a leading producer of amines, cyclic carbonates, surfactants and surfactant intermediates for industrial applications - will promote a range of new technologies at N眉rnberg. Fresh research and development has enabled the creation of chemistries that offer both protective and architectural coating formulators a range of manufacturing and performance benefits. In the protective coatings arena, these include an innovative portfolio of JEFFLINK庐 chain extenders for polyurethane and polyurea elastomers plus a series of new secondary aliphatic JEFFAMINE庐 SD amines for the formulator鈥檚 toolbox.
In the area of architectural coatings, developments include: a new amine neutraliser which can be used to adjust and control the pH of latexes as well as assisting with dispersion and stabilisation; EMPIMIN庐 novel technologies for APE replacement; plus a new coalescing agent, classified as non-VOC, which is suitable for use with a wide variety of latexes including high-pH acrylics. A technical paper will be presented at the Ink Makers Forum outlining the benefits of a new range of speciality polymeric JEFFSPERSE庐 dispersants, which are designed for use in acqueous printing inks, industrial coatings and pigment concentrates. (Wednesday 9th May at 4pm).
Representatives from 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Pigments will promote innovations within the company鈥檚 TIOXIDE庐 portfolio 鈥� a world leading brand of titanium dioxide pigments that provides brilliant whiteness, opacity and protection to an enormous range of coatings applications. Products under the spotlight will include: TIOXIDE庐 TR81 pigment which delivers brilliant whiteness and super durability to industrial coatings; TIOXIDE庐 TR85 pigment which is designed specifically for low VOC decorative paints, offering rapid wetting and dispersion plus a very high gloss finish; and TIOXIDE庐 R-XL pigment which provides outstanding opacity, tinting strength and colour for matt emulsion paints.
Further representing 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Pigments, Scott Wright, Customer Solutions Manager, will address ECS congress delegates about the future of titanium dioxide pigments. His presentation will discuss whether modern pigments are approaching the theoretical limits of optical performance and demonstrate how improving in-process performance can provide significant manufacturing, cost and conversion benefits for pigment users worldwide. (Wednesday 9th May at 12pm).
The team from 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Polyurethanes will also unveil new concepts for two-pack VOC-free coatings. The products are based on 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站鈥檚 low viscous polyisocyanates and caster oil polyols from Alberdingk Boley 鈥� a producer of water-based systems for coatings and finishings on all substrates. The products are the result of a collaboration between the two companies that addresses the needs of industrial flooring customers throughout Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
Additionally, Ian Rimmer, Commercial Manager Coatings EAME for 乐天堂fun88(中国区)官方网站 Polyurethanes, has been invited to speak on 鈥楾he Chemistry of Polyurethanes Coatings鈥�, at a pre-congress tutorial on Monday 7th May at 08.30 hrs in the Congress Centre of the N眉rnberg fairground. Ian鈥檚 tutorial will review relevant polyisocyanates and polyols and discuss how different combinations are suitable for an array of coating applications.
