Cytec Presents Waterborne One-Pack Epoxy and UV Field Applied Technologies for Protective Coatings

Woodland Park, NJ – – Cytec Industries Inc. (NYSE: CYT) is a Silver Sponsor of the SSPC 2013 GreenCOAT in San Antonio, Texas from January 14-17, 2013, and will be showcasing waterborne resins and UV curable technologies for protective coatings. Two presentations will be given, “Novel One-Pack (1K) Epoxy Technology for Corrosion Protection” and “Field Applied UV Curable Coatings for Concrete Flooring”, by experts from Cytec Coating Resins.

Dr. Florian Lunzer, Global Technical Service Manager for Protective Coatings, will introduce a novel waterborne one-pack (1K) epoxy resin based on cationic epoxy-amine technology that provides a very high level of corrosion resistance. “This new one-pack (1K) epoxy development helps to bridge the performance gap between traditional 1K alkyd and acrylics and the high corrosion resistance of two –pack(2K) epoxy systems,” Dr. Lunzer notes. In addition, the new resin has a very low VOC content, has no pot life issues, is fast drying, and does not contain a sensitizing amine hardener. Dr. Lunzer’s presentation is titled “Novel Waterborne One-Pack (1K) Epoxy Technology for Corrosion Protection” and will be given at 4:30 P.M. on January 16th.

Also on January 16th at 3:30 P.M, Dr. JoAnn Arceneaux, Global Technical Manager for New Business Development, will present the latest developments and advantages of UV-cured field applied coatings for concrete flooring applications. “UV curable field applied coatings address some of the shortcomings of commercially available coating systems on the market, such as improved environmental compliance, increased productivity, better product performance, immediate cure for rapid return-to-service, and a high quality, very durable finish,” observes Dr. Arceneaux.
