Analytical methods to describe the performance of silicone based surface control additives in waterborne wood and furniture coatings. Learn more about current trends in wood coatings, performance profile of surface control additives based on silicone chemistry in waterborne wood coatings,  the results based on analytical methods and capability of spherical precipitated silica particles to enhance the mechanical resistance of coating surfaces.

This course provides some insights on the different types of wood coating technologies. For each technology, we will describe its advantages, disadvantages and key functionalities.

Siloxane-based additives are critical tools in coating applications because their structures can be varied in order to provide a broad range of performance benefits in many types of formulations and chemistries. An attempt is made to clarify the general structure-property relationships that drive the performance attributes of siloxane additives and detail the continuum that exists between wetting, leveling, defoaming and slip within this chemistry class.

Recorded Webinar: Coating defects can cause severe headaches in wood coating applications. We have several options of additives in our portfolio to get rid of these defects or solve challenges like wetting of difficult substrates easily. In this webinar we had provided you with recommendations for water based, solvent based & UV coatings.

Recorded webinar: This recorded webinar presents Evonik’s special silica products and explains the main benefits of each product in waterborne matt coating systems.  The webinar covers fumed silica, matting agent and spherical silica products.

Recorded Webinar: This webinar focuses on solutions to eliminate reaction foam in WB 2K PU systems. It also covers the topic of matting of waterbased wood coatings.

Recorded Webinar: We were delighted to offer a joint webinar with  Synthomer, one of the world’s leading suppliers of sustainable water-based and differentiated polymer solutions.

This webinar has focused on the importance of pre-treatment of metal surfaces. The session has coved the application of 1K anti-corrosion primers and direct-to-metal (DTM) coatings, highlighting their benefits in protecting against environmental factors. Additionally, we have discussed the film formation process and common surface defects that can impact performance.

This webinar was part of the Surface Weeks. 

This learning journey provides a very complete overview about the basics of wood coatings and will answer any questions you have on wood coatings. Our expert Heike Semmler is taking you through this journey beginning with the history of wood coatings up to the different technologies, application and test methods. The journey also explains the functionalities and characteristics of wood coatings and much more.
