Talking to R&D people in the industry, the shoe is on the other foot when it comes to reformulation. 📢 The increasing regulatory frenzy, .... ....a term I've borrowed from Lionel Schlessinger from Monopol Colours, is forcing paint manufacturers to adapt their tried and tested formulations - unfortunately it has little to do with innovation, it's more of a necessity. We have more and more substances in our formulations that are no longer compliant, be it PFAS, bisphenol A, biocides or other chemicals of concern. We have been serving the coatings industry for more than 100 years and we want to support the industry create something better and new to ultimately make the world a better place every day. I believe that a key element of this is to bring together the industry's leading minds and facilitate the exchange of new developments and ideas. To that end, the European Coatings editorial team has once again put together a conference programme that addresses the industry's burning issues: 🔝 Sustainable, PFAS-free Can & Coil Coatings, Biocides and Alternatives, Understanding PFAS and Reformulating PFAS-free, Bio-based and Water-based Coatings. 🔝 (Find here all details on the events: https://lnkd.in/gjM4hKTm ) 🕸 How important is it for you to network with industry colleagues? I look forward to hearing your comments. #PFAS #Biocides #coatingstechnology

In order to achieve optimally resource-saving production and to minimize scrap, viscosity fluctuations must be detected and any required counteraction taken as early as possible. Viscosity fluctuations may be caused, for example, by differences in fiber content due to batch change, or by variations in granulate quality. With the latest version of its HiQ Melt application, Wittmann Battenfeld has created a means to reveal deviations already at the metering point.
