Why are Coating Technology Advancements Boding Well for Epoxy Hardeners?
Recent advancements have progressed epoxy coating technology to newer breakthroughs. For instance, a single pack “stable” epoxy coatings technology has emerged, which failed in the past because of certain limitations in current Ketamine technology. Ketamine technology has paved the way for longer shelf life.
Remarkable properties of these next-generation epoxy coatings such as faster coat and recoat times, better adhesion and improved low-temperature cure characteristics provide them an edge over their traditional counterparts and offer massive growth potential in construction industry.
Ongoing collaborative project between Dixie Chemical, which manufactures specialty chemicals, and four other industry partners exhibits lucrative growth opportunities in building construction. Together, they are developing an all-composite wall panel for damage-resistant modular buildings which transform the face of construction industry in foreseeable future.
How is Environmental Sustainability Prompting Epoxy Hardeners Adoption?
Innovation of new environmentally friendly epoxy curing agents and prominent role in development of chemically robust, highly durable and excellent strength coating material has bolstered the demand in the metal industry. Properties such as quick drying, excellent adhesiveness and water resistivity will further advance the global demand for metal protection, ultimately spurring demand for epoxy hardeners in the long-run.
In addition, rising environmental and economic concerns has ushered in hefty investments in the research and development of bio-based polymers in recent years, widening epoxy hardener prospects. Manufacturers are looking to replace petroleum-based materials with polymers derived from naturally-occurring feedstocks to satisfy the industrial need for processes and products that are compatible with the environment and that enhance sustainable development.
