Finding and collecting earth pigments can be both an exciting and rewarding endeavor. Collecting pigments from the earth can be done causally as you drive through the country or with much planning and preparation to identify and collect specific minerals.

The world of products that can be added to acrylics to modify them for many different purposes can be a strange and confusing place. We understand that they essentially look like white products in white jars with white labels and it can be hard to understand why we have so many and what each of ... Read more

Rhodoline HBR was developed to enable the phase-out of fluorosurfactants in architectural paint formulations. This innovative new product helps prevent freshly painted surfaces from sticking together, providing early hot block resistance without negatively impacting other performance properties. “Growing restrictions on fluorosurfactants across the world are driving formulators to eliminate them in their paint and coating systems. This often leaves a difficult choice: either sacrifice the early hot block resistance that these additives used to provide, or adopt sub-par replacements that bring other drawbacks. As a fluorosurfactant-free solution, Rhodoline HBR is an entirely new offer within our portfolio that helps formulators overcome this dilemma,” said Pierre Hennaux, business development manager at Syensqo Coatings North AmericaSyensqo launches Rhodoline HBR, a fluorosurfactant-free additive for architectural paints. The solution prevents sticking of freshly painted surfaces without compromising other performance properties. With low VOC content and high performance at low levels, it will debut at the 2024 American Coatings Show before commercial rollout in May 2024. Rhodoline HBR ensures that the paint on freshly coated surfaces will not be damaged after coming into contact with each other. This can be particularly important for low-VOC acrylic systems and in the early days after painting when the paint appears dry but is not fully “cured.” At the same time, all essential paint performance characteristics are maintained. “In all system formulations tested to date, Rhodoline HBR has shown great paint performance, including resistance to scrub, blistering or dirt pick-up. Gloss and low water sensitivity are not affected either. Also, the product has a very low VOC content of less than 1% and delivers high performance at use levels as low as 0.05%,” said Linda Adamson, technical service manager at Syensqo Coatings Rhodoline HBR will be introduced to the market during the 2024 American Coatings Show and Conference from April 30 to May 02 in Indianapolis, Indiana (USA), at Booth 2550. The product will be commercially rolled out in May 2024, beginning in the United States and Canada. Note: The content of this press release has not been edited by Fibre2Fashion staff.
