Results
Our data confirmed that NLS can
be used directly and homogenously
disperse very well in waterborne
UV curable coating and water sys-
tems. Test data showed that NLS in a
waterborne clear UV curable coating
would not have negative impacts to
cure speed.
The increasing the concentration
of NLS in the waterborne UV curable
coating can effectively protect from UV
light degradation.
Conclusion
Environmentally friendly coatings are the
trend for future development in the coating industry. In this article we highlighted
the benefits of using NLS in waterborne
UV-curable coating system.
Coating manufactures may still need
to run the experiments to confirm their
coating systems are compatible. The company who can offer tailor UV absorber
and light stabilizer products will have the
key to providing UV protection in the
manufacturer’s coating products. CW
