Superhydrophobic materials offer a strategy for developing marine anti-corrosion materials due to their low solid-liquid contact area and low surface energy. However, existing superhydrophobic ...

Researchers developed a superhydrophobic coating from recycled tires that resists wear and protects steel from rust in tough marine environments while recycling waste rubber. (Nanowerk News) A team of ...

Powder coating is a finish you’ll find quite often, as it’s no stranger to components exposed to the harshest environments. Hitches, suspension pieces, wheels, and even engine parts are all familiar ...

Powder coatings are created using polymeric resins that are combined with pigments, curatives, flow modifiers, leveling agents, and additional additives. They are both solvent- and water-free systems.

Powder coating is now preferred over liquid coating and has also been extensively employed in numerous industries due to its negligible VOC (volatile organic compound) emission, high solid content, ...

The authors experiment with a resonant acoustic mixer as a method for dry powder coating. Efficient handling and transport of fine-particle powders can be difficult because of the highly cohesive ...
