WALK ON PROGRESS

Two-component epoxy systems are well-known for their excellent chemical resistance and mechanical properties, as well as superior adhesion to a wide range of substrates. For that reason, epoxy systems are widely used in concrete floor coatings and protective metal coatings [1]. Driven by environmental and safety regulations, waterborne epoxy systems have become an important technology and have gained wide acceptance across the coatings industry. Key advantages of the water-borne systems span from low emissions measured as VOC (volatile organic compounds) and low flammability, to reduced toxicity and easy cleaning with water. This allows coating formulators and applicators to improve workers ...
