In this recorded webinar, we offer you guidance when using: TEGO® Guard 9000, AERODISP® W 7520, SPHERILEX® and TEGO® Phobes. Ideas for you to explore when formulating your outperforming coatings!

This webinar was organised by UL prospector in November 2021 and discusses the typical defects found in architectural coatings and offers product recommendations to solve these issues. 

Novel synthetic silica to achieve matt powder coatings.

Recorded Webinar: Learn how Evonik’s versatile powder coating additives can take your formulations to the next level. Effects like free-flow, matting and pigment wetting will be in the focus. Beside well established brands like AEROXIDE® our experts explain technical benefits of the new TEGO® Powder Aid D01.

Recorded Webinar: This webinar introduces the newest member of the SPHERILEX® precipitated silica and its benefits in improving the durability of clear and pigmented coatings.

Recorded webinar: This recorded webinar presents Evonik’s special silica products and explains the main benefits of each product in waterborne matt coating systems.  The webinar covers fumed silica, matting agent and spherical silica products.

Recorded Webinar: As the printing industry advances towards higher printing speeds and a broader range of graphic effects, the utilization of both fumed and precipitated silica in printing inks has become prevalent. The choice of particle sizes and surface treatments plays a crucial role in influencing the ink formulation's matting effect and rheology behavior. This presentation aims to explore the benefits of using engineered silicas such as AEROSIL®, ACEMATT®, SIPERNAT®, and SPHERILEX® in printing inks applications. The discussion will focus on how these silicas can enhance key properties like Rheology Control, Matting, Anti-block, and scratch resistance in the ink formulations.

Wall paints are a very important application within Architectural Coatings - and renewing them is quite laborious. Optimizing the resistance to damage and wear leads to more economical and sustainable paint formulations, as it makes renovation of e.g. façades with the costly installation of scaffolding redundant. One particular headache for freshly painted façades can be the formation of so called snail trails causing an uneven appearance when there is high humidity or rain. New specialty fillers help to prevent these problems and allow to formulate very long-lasting beautiful films when formulated e.g. with optimized hydrophobing agents. For interior coatings, innovative fillers also play a major role for optimization of mechanical resistance e.g., burnish phenomena - in addition, the use of suitable surface-active agents facilitates the optimization of scuff and chemical resistance. Studies of film formation help to understand and optimize both interior and exterior formulations.

Analytical methods to describe the performance of silicone based surface control additives in waterborne wood and furniture coatings. Learn more about current trends in wood coatings, performance profile of surface control additives based on silicone chemistry in waterborne wood coatings,  the results based on analytical methods and capability of spherical precipitated silica particles to enhance the mechanical resistance of coating surfaces.

This course provides some insights on the different types of wood coating technologies. For each technology, we will describe its advantages, disadvantages and key functionalities.

Siloxane-based additives are critical tools in coating applications because their structures can be varied in order to provide a broad range of performance benefits in many types of formulations and chemistries. An attempt is made to clarify the general structure-property relationships that drive the performance attributes of siloxane additives and detail the continuum that exists between wetting, leveling, defoaming and slip within this chemistry class.

Recorded Webinar: Coating defects can cause severe headaches in wood coating applications. We have several options of additives in our portfolio to get rid of these defects or solve challenges like wetting of difficult substrates easily. In this webinar we had provided you with recommendations for water based, solvent based & UV coatings.

Recorded Webinar: This webinar focuses on solutions to eliminate reaction foam in WB 2K PU systems. It also covers the topic of matting of waterbased wood coatings.

This learning journey provides a very complete overview about the basics of wood coatings and will answer any questions you have on wood coatings. Our expert Heike Semmler is taking you through this journey beginning with the history of wood coatings up to the different technologies, application and test methods. The journey also explains the functionalities and characteristics of wood coatings and much more.
