Overcoming coating performance challenges in automotive & industrial applications

The coatings industry faces growing pressure to deliver high-performance finishes while meeting stricter environmental and regulatory standards. Manufacturers must balance durability, chemical resistance, and aesthetics with reduced emissions and safer chemistries, all while meeting the evolving demands of automotive, electronics, and industrial applications.

UVAN and Almatex resin technologies from Mitsui Chemicals provide effective solutions to these challenges. UVAN, based on urea and melamine chemistry, acts as a high-performance crosslinking agent offering hardness, chemical resistance, gloss retention, and low free formaldehyde content. Almatex acrylic resins deliver excellent durability, weatherability, adhesion, and broad substrate compatibility for long-lasting performance in demanding environments.

This webinar will give a focused overview of resin chemistry, formulation approaches, and practical applications, showing how these technologies can be used to develop coatings that combine performance, compliance, and sustainability.
