The identification, measurement, and reduction of volatile organic compounds ( VOCs) has been a key motivator in recent coatings research and development efforts. Analytical methods for determining VOC levels in […]
[…] materials will decrease and air quality will improve. As regulations have lowered limits of allowed VOCs, a significant problem with enforceability of these regulations has developed since reliable methods for […]
Forty-five paint samples having volatile organic content ( VOCs) ranging from 7 to 562 g/L were prepared and tested for VOC according to EPA Method 24. In addition, all individual […]
The current standard for determination of volatile organic compounds ( VOCs) in paint and coating systems in the United States is EPA Method 24 (ASTM D 3960-02). It has been […]
[…] development and reformulation efforts is the drive to lower levels of volatile organic compounds ( VOCs), often to meet increasingly strict regulations and specifications. Pushing VOCs to lower levels and […]
[…] emphasis on sustainability increases in the coatings industry, the reduction of volatile organic compounds ( VOCs) for low-VOC latex paints is an industry imperative. The coatings industry often employs nonvolatile […]
[…] addition, during this era, the coatings industry was determined to find innovative technologies to reduce VOCs due to restrictions established by the Clean Air Act. Liquid coatings of course continued […]
[…] be sanded. Current UV-cure primers can be sanded within 2 minutes. The need to lower VOCs and volatile HAPs (VHAPs) is among the current constraints for all technologies. A hurdle […]
