Cardanol, a waste from the food industry and widely produced (1 Mt/y), has been used as chain stopper during polycondensation of short oil alkyd resins in order to replace benzoic acid. Then, phosphorylated cardanol added both reduce solvent content bring flame-retardant (FR) properties resins. The renewable carbon formulations increased up 23%. impact introduction molecules on drying time flex...

Near- and mid-infrared optical coherence tomography (OCT) is evaluated as a non-destructive non-contact reflection imaging modality for inspection of industrial marine coatings. Near-infrared OCT was used to obtain high-resolution images (~6/2 µm lateral/axial) hidden subsurface cracks defects in resin base coating, which had been exposed high pressure temperature study coating degradation host...
