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, ...

A novel study demonstrates that droplets at a miniscule level can be precisely controlled, opening new avenues in micro-scale systems. (Nanowerk News) Scientists from the Research Center for Materials ...

The ingredients for powder coating are basically epoxy resin and polyester resin. These function as a matrix and binding agents for solid particles, and they also harden the finish. Special effects, ...

Panel a: Many model simulations were made by changing particle sizes at emissions (e.g., 'Small size' and 'Large size'). The 'Detailed method' can simulate various coating states of BC particles (pure ...

A steel mesh that lets water through but collects and holds oil - courtesy of a coating of nanoparticles - could clean up oil spills quickly and inexpensively, U.S. researchers suggest. Engineers at ...

An international team of researchers used liquid gallium to create an antiviral and antimicrobial coating and tested it on a range of fabrics, including facemasks. The coating adhered more strongly to ...

Not many people would voluntarily fly through plumes of smoke emitted from wildfires. But atmospheric scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory do, over and over, ...
