Publisher's Synopsis
This volume contains dozens of original investigations into the materials, chemistry, formulation and applications of waterborne coatings. Chapters focus on technologies for improving the performance and processability of coatings in themselves and as adhered to metals and plastics. Novel chemistry is explained demonstrating the link between polymeric structure and superior coating properties. Attention is given to emerging developments in stimuli-response coatings, nanoparticles and dispersion, and new testing techniques.
