ACA Member Webinar: Moving the Goalpost for Coatings R&D with Digital Transformation and AI

Whether the task is reformulation to meet regulatory and supply-chain challenges, or new product development to reach sustainability and performance criteria, R&D in the coatings industry is moving at an accelerated pace for those that have embraced digital transformation and the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to leverage their valuable data.

Predictive modeling is the foundation for industry-leading product formulation activities; it consolidates the wealth of data and information held by subject-matter experts and opens the door to “digital experiments” where performance properties can be both predicted and targeted, before ever stepping foot in a physical lab. “Will this novel resin improve durability?” “Can I meet low-VOC regulations with that bio-based surfactant?” “Is there a way to retain quality if I use this cheaper additive?” The goalpost for answering these questions is no longer measured in months, but rather, in minutes.

This free webinar will be led by Prosensus’ Marlene Cardin, Director of Projects and Kristin Wallace, Project Engineer. The webinar will address typical steps to effectively employ AI for R&D in the coatings industry, including discussion and demonstration on data preparation, model building, simulation, and optimization using ProSensus’ FormuSense software.
