Researchers have developed a highly effective dual-layer coating that provides 99.6% protection against iron corrosion. The breakthrough combines a thin molecular primer with a durable polymer layer, ...

You can trace these and other powder coating problems back to one issue: parts hanging. Getting it wrong can make powder coating an excessive, unpredictable constraint. Getting it right can relieve ...

Haldex Commercial Vehicle Systems has introduced a new protective coating for remanufactured brake shoes that is guaranteed against lining edge cracking from ‘rust jacking’ when used in conjunction ...

Electric fields can mobilize non-ionic particles to coat metal surfaces. Polymer chemists at Nagoya Institute of Technology in Japan invented a novel and simple coating process to color metals, ...

With India's monsoon season delivering humidity and winter bringing moisture and de-icing chemicals that accelerate corrosion, anti-rust coatings are becoming a must-have for keeping cars alive longer ...

In a study published in Nature Communications, a team led by Penn State researchers developed a synthesis process to produce a “rust-resistant” coating with extra features suitable for creating faster ...

There are three basic ways to make a car and/or its parts look good: painting, plating, and powdercoating. Since we just finished our huge, 10-part series on how to paint your car last month, this ...
