Shepherd developed a pigment which has significantly lower surface area and resin demand compared with the previous red-shade blues, what results in more gloss.
Mechanical properties of epoxy resin toughened with two different submicron particles of TiO2 at different weight fractions were investigated in a new study.
Test results show that self-stratifying systems have comparable or even better corrosion protection properties compared to classical two-layered systems containing the same resins and pigments.
It was found that, the corrosion resistance of the coating reinforced with 100 vol % Al particles was considerably greater than the one which was only reinforced with 100 vol % MIO particles.
