International Paint introduces Interthane 990 UHS
International Paint LLC, an Akzo Nobel company, and one of the world’s leading providers of high-performance protective coatings and fire-protection products has introduced Interthane 990 UHS, a new low VOC polyurethane technology that contains additives to help prevent the growth of mildew on the surface of exposed coated steelwork.
The high-performance, two-component white acrylic polyurethane was specially designed as a solution for the booming petrochemical ethanol market to address ongoing issues with mildew build-up on exterior steel tanks due to splashes, spills, fumes and overfill of the slow evaporating chemical.
Interthane 990 UHS is formulated for both new construction and maintenance applications and offers superior durability with excellent gloss and color retention. The finish coat can be sprayed, rolled or brush-applied, and is ideal for use on correctly prepared and primed steel surfaces in a wide range of aggressive environments including chemical and petrochemical plants, offshore structures, bridges, pulp and paper mills, power plants and refineries.

Liquiguard Technologies launches new formulations
Liquiguard Technologies has launched two new formulas: Liquiguard PC Plus and Liquiguard PC Concentrate.
Liquiguard PC is a new alternative for the powder coating process. It is a water-based, non-hazardous, non-toxic pre-treatment developed as a replacement for the more commonly used phosphate and chromate pre-treatments. Liquiguard PC has excellent anti-rust and strong adhesion properties, which provide a mechanical bond over the metal profiles. Liquiguard PC will also isolate and inhibit rusting.
With the newest release of Liquiguard Plus and Liquiguard Concentrate, Liquiguard Technologies brings a new dimension of versatility to its family of products. Designed for the volume users, the new formulations serve several purposes. Primarily they help reduce freight charges and storage space. Additionally the powder coating facilities can dilute these formulations to different levels based on the nature of the substrate and application procedures. While Liquiguard PC Plus can be diluted up to three times its original volume Liquiguard PC Concentrate can be diluted to eight times its original volume.

Spies Hecker Permasolid HS Diamond Clear Coat 845 |
Spies Hecker’s new VOC compliant scratch-resistant Permasolid HS Diamond Clear Coat 8450 combines durable vehicle refinish with easy application. It is a scratch-resistant clear coat that offers the ability to resist everyday aggression, such as that from automatic car washes. The High Solid Clear Coat 8450 meets the current needs of car manufacturers—a fact demonstrated by DaimlerChrysler’s global approval of this vehicle refinish, according to the company.
The scratch-resistant clear coat is based on Spies Hecker patented binder technology. The new formula is achieved when Permasolid VHS Hardener 3240 is added in a mixing ratio of 3:1, followed by 1½ coat or 2 coat application, providing excellent flow and leveling and if needed, may be polished. Complete curing takes place at an object temperature of 140°F/60°C in 30 to 35 minutes, saving time and workload.
