Anti-scratch and adhesion properties of photo-curable polymer/clay nanocomposite coatings based on methacrylate monomers

Adhesion and Scratch Resistance of Coatings on Plastics

Progress on these topics is occasionally updated in Coating Materials News (CMN) issues since polymer substrates are being used with greater frequency in displays, solar panels, laminated window glazing, reflectors for illumination, and other optical applications. Injection molded or form cast polymer parts are now mass-produced as economical and light-weight replacements for glass parts. The s...

Enhanced Anti-corrosive Properties of Electrosynthesized Polyaniline/zeolite Nanocomposite Coatings on Steel

The preparation of polyaniline/zeolite nanocomposite coating on 304 stainless steel (304 SS) surface has studied via the galvanostatic method. The electro-generated coating was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The anticorrosion property of polyaniline/zeo...

Study the curing behavior and mechanical properties of Pigmented UV curable epoxy acrylate monomers

The formulations contained different acrylate monomer with different structure and functionalities and TiO2, were applied to obtain pigmented acrylic films by UV exposure. The conversion and mechanical characteristic were correlated. The results showed that there is a significant interaction between pigment, reactive diluents’ type and mechanical properties of coatings. It seems that cured film...

Preparation and Properties of UV curable urethane methacrylate oligomer

N,N-dihydroxyethyl methylacrylamide (DHEMAA), which is a methacrylate modified by diol, has been prepared by reaction of diethylanol amine with methyl methacrylate. UV curable urethane methacrylate oligomers have been synthesized by the reaction of a series of diol, triol, DHEMAA and HEMA with TDI or IPDI in two reaction orders. The first reaction style is the TDI or IPDI reacted with HEMA firs...
