Low-Temperature-Cure Powder Coating Technology Concepts
The paradigm has shifted regarding “standard-cure” powder coatings. Traditional powder coatings once considered standard, which cured at 375-400°F (191-204°C), have been replaced in many applications with 325°F (163°C) bake powders. Moreover, ULC powder technology is pushing the frontiers of cure technology to sub-300°F (149°C) curing conditions, expanding powder’s reach into a universe of new applications.

Coatings and Low-Carbon Cement Technology
Pending legislation that aims to mandate use of low-carbon-containing cement is under consideration in New York and New Jersey, and other states are introducing legislation that requires construction proposals to declare the environmental impact of cement mixes. Honolulu, Hawaii, has added a requirement that city construction projects consider using concrete that stores CO₂. Thus, regulations are driving research efforts to reduce the carbon footprint of cement. The result could have significant implications for the adhesion and durability of paints and coatings applied over low-carbon cements.
