Plastic Coatings
Plastic Coatings Plastic substrates require special consideration because of four major concerns: Heat sensitivity Low energy Surface solvent sensitivity Flexibility The low energy surface of some polymers can created problems with adhesion. Substrates such as poly olefins, poly propylene and poly ethylene are extremely difficult surfaces on which to achieve proper and sufficient adhesion. Acrylic […]

Wood Coatings
The coating system on wooden surfaces is expected to cope with many different requirements depending on the particular application. What all coating systems have in common is that they must have an attractive appearance and good adhesion between the individual layers of the coating. In the case of interior applications such as furniture and doors, […]

Masonry Coating
Thermoplastic acrylic polymers are used in the decoration and protection of masonry and concrete, for both interior and exterior applications. Due to the highly alkaline nature of most masonry materials, one of the fundamental properties required for high performance long-life coatings on such a substrate is resistance to saponification.

Marine Paints
Marine coatings are special- purpose coatings that are supplied to the shipbuilding and repair offshore and pleasure craft markets. The used products are diverse and unique and are formulated for severe climate and immersion conditions. As a result of these conditions, the coatings used must have maximum resistance properties to salt spray and constant sea contact and a broad range of chemicals. Two component iso ciyanate cured acrylic paints are used as finishes on epoxy systems. Due to urethane bonds, they have high environmental resistance especially excellent radiation resistance, which protect epoxy systems from chalking.

Industrial Paints
Nearly all the industrial installations, machines and industrial spare parts have to be coated in a protective way. High chemical and physical resistance in severe conditions can be achieved by means of these coatings.

House Hold Appliances Paints
A major substrate encountered in buildings is metal, with ferrous metal being of greatest significance. Whereas wood and masonry are most conventionally grouped under the general heading of building paints, ferrous substrates encountered in virtually all market sectors. Thermoplastic acrylic paints can be used with high gloss retentions and they are easy to use. On the other hand thermosetting acrylic paints with excellent mechanical and physical properties such as high scratch resistance and gloss retention are accessible.

Automotive Lacquers and Paints
The severe demands and accurate performances required for automotive coating are considerable. There is a need for body protection, such as anti- corrosion and stone chip resistance for a durable and appealing finish. Products also have to be appropriate to mass-production conditions and in this respect, must be robust, flexible and economic to use. Thermosetting acrylic-amino resins are used in OEM section of automotive paints and two component isocyanate curable acrylic resins are used in automotive refinishes.
