Silicones to Improve Functionality in High Performance
Silicone additives have long been recognized for providing special properties to coatings and inks, including improved slip, mar resistance, leveling and foam control. Because silicones are effective at very low concentrations, they are widely used to optimize both product properties and processes.
Some key coatings markets where silicones are useful are automotive, refinish and marine coatings. The end products formulated with silicones are designed to meet the specific requirements of various coating systems such as solvent, water, solventless, powder or energy curing. This ebook examines the key markets for silicones and offers insight into the latest innovations.
