Coatings World has always been a supporter of the academic side

of the paint and coatings industry. As such we make it a point of

attending as many education-related events as we can. One event

that we never miss is the Waterborne, High-Solids and Powder Coatings

Symposium, which will be held this year February 24-28 in New Orleans.

Held annually by the University of Southern Mississippis School of

Polymers and High Performance Materials, this event brings together the

brightest students with the top companies involved in the formulation of

waterborne and other environmentally friendly coatings. And all of the

proceeds from this Symposium go to fund the students and the Polymer

Science program at USM.

This year I am proud to announce that we will not just be attendees,but will be actively participating in the Symposium. Our publisher, Dale

Pritchett, will be moderating a Pigments Panel and an Automotive Panel.

The Automotive Panel will include presentations from automotive manu-

facturers Ford and Toyota as well as PPG automotive coatings and Sun

Chemical pigments.

In addition, contributing editors Steve and Beth McDaniel of Technology

Litigators will be presenting an overview of some of their more popular

topics discussed in their monthly column iPaint.

If you are planning on attending the event please stop by our tabletop

exhibit and pick up the latest issue of our magazine.

Fresh

Paint

Axalta Coating Systems recently broke

ground to expand its manufacturing capac-

ity for coatings with the construction of a

new $50 million eco-friendly waterborne

facility in the Jiading district of Shanghai.

Expected to begin production in

2015, Axaltas Shanghai waterborne fa-

cility will manufacture and supply up

to 25,000 metric tons of its waterborne

products. Axaltas technological leader-

ship in waterborne paints and expanded

capacity for waterborne production willsupport the long term growth of an auto-

motive industry that is extending into the

southern and western areas of the coun-

try. Both Axalta products and the manu-

facturing facility itself will contribute to

the overall sustainable development of

Chinas automotive industry.

We invested in this facility to meet

growing customer needs for high-perfor-

mance water-based coatings solutions.

With this new facility, we are expand-

ing our capacity to provide waterbornepaints to help Chinas auto industry de-

velop sustainably, Charles Shaver chair-

man and CEO, Axalta told the audience

at the ground breaking ceremony. Our

technological leadership focuses on de-

veloping environmentally friendly coat-

ing solutions. Our new facility will also

employ the latest generation production

systems to reduce the environmental foot-

print of our operations.

Axaltas waterborne production pro-

cess utilizes a global waterborne technol-ogy system to produce Lean and Green

Automotive Coatings that automo-

bile original equipment manufacturers

(OEMs) can use to significantly reduce

volatile organic compounds (VOCs), en-

ergy consumption and investment. The

Lean and Green Automotive Coating

process includes primer-less coatings and

3-wet coatings which can achieve full lay-

er performance without having to flash

and bake between coats. The increased

productivity results in a better bottomline for customers while still producing

an unparalleled finish on vehicles. In ad-

dition, Axaltas waterborne products are

intrinsically environmentally responsible

and meet global environmental require-

ments, such as the EUs VOC Regulation

2004/42/EC which Axalta adheres to

in China, and which can help reduce

the overall environmental footprint of

Chinas auto industry.

We appreciate Axaltas forward

thinking approach to product develop-

ment, explained Sun Lianying, chairmanof the China National Coating Industry

Association. Axaltas eco-friendly pro-

duction process is aligned with Chinas

direction to develop in a sustainable path

and we look forward to witnessing the

construction of the Axalta Shanghai wa-

terborne facility.

Over the past two years, the Chinese

government has issued a series of regu-

lations to decrease the environmental

burden of the auto industry, including

the requirement for all new automotivemanufacturer production lines to use eco-

friendly waterborne coating products.

This foresight for the future will have a

tremendous impact on the sustainable de-

velopment of Chinas auto. industry.

We are very pleased to see that Axalta

has continuously invested in expanding

its production of technologically supe-

rior products tailored specifically to our

local demands, said Wang Zhongcheng,

vice president of FAW-VW Chengdu.

As one of Chinas leading automobilemanufacturers, FAW-VW is moving to a

sustainable model for development and

the waterborne products produced at this

facility will help us achieve our business

objectives in the region.

Valspar Paint Unveils 2014Color OutlookValspar Paint recently revealed its 2014

Color Outlook and trend palettes. In

2014, Valspar predicts the theme of re-

defining the home will grow in impor-tance in the coming year and has curated

three distinct color palettes that embrace

this forecasted trend. Each color pal-

ette Zenergy, Time Traveler and Yours

Truly is inspired by the newest under-

lying influences and movements that are

expressed in fashion, food, art, interior

design and lifestyle.

In 2014, consumers will be redefin-

ing what matters and will feel a grow-

ing awareness of whats important, said

Sue Kim, Valspar color strategist. The

Valspar 2014 Color Outlook draws onthis trend, with color palettes that are

inspired by how people are purposefully

incorporating these redefined experiences

into their daily lives.

Zenergy, Time Traveler and Yours

Truly are color palettes that serve to re-

store spirits with a return to simplicity, re-

connect us to cultures and customs gone

by, and reinvent style with expressions

of creativity. Colors in the palettes range

from serene cool hues to grounded earthy

tones to bold traditional colors, offeringa wide variety of color choices to refresh

any room in the home.

There is cohesion to the story of each

of the trend palettes, but the strong ver-

satility and range of the individual colors

encourages experimentation and self-ex-

pression in the home as we seek to rede-

fine in the year ahead, continued Kim.

With options that complement every

personal taste and dcor style, the Valspar

2014 Color Outlook gives consumers the

confidence they need during the color se-lection process to choose a color they will

love and create a beautiful space.

This marks the fifth annual Valspar

Color Outlook, which each year exam-

ines new prevailing directions and inspi-

rations that are beginning to be expressed

in functional art forms and lifestyle.

Valspar research looks at broad global

issues, consumer behaviors and the econ-

omy and analyzes how these influences

filter down to interior colors, materials

and finishes. The Valspar Color Outlookand trend palettes serve to capture the

BASF and OEMs DevelopASTM Test Standard forTransportation CoatingsA collaborative 14-year effort involv-

ing BASF, automotive and aerospace

original equipment manufacturers(OEMs), material suppliers and test

equipment manufacturers has resulted

in a new American Society for Testing

and Materials (ASTM) test standard for

transportation coatings.

The new method is 30 to 40 percent

faster than the previous test standard

used for many OEMs, and improves

the accuracy to nearly 100 percent in

predicting coating service life compared

to less than 50 percent with the previ-

ous standard. Industry implementationof this new test can speed new product

development, and aid in the development

of better overall products for the coating

industry. This test can be used for auto-

mobiles, aircrafts, trucks and rail cars.

Officially named ASTM D7869-

13 Standard Practice for Xenon Arc

Exposure Test with Enhanced Light

and Water Exposure for Transportation

Coatings, the new test simulates physical

and environmental stresses that an exte-

rior transportation coating is exposed toin a subtropical climate. These stresses

include long water exposures, wet/dry cy-

cling, and high dosages of solar radiation,

all of which have been shown to cause

severe coatings deterioration.

The new test conditions consist of a

primary test cycle and a sub-cycle. The

primary test includes two long water ex-

posures and a single, long light exposure

with precise spectral match to daylight.

The sub-cycle consists of shorter alternat-ing water and light exposures and is de-

signed to simulate cyclic stresses such as

cracking and surface erosion.

These two cycles are designed to

replicate the common types of coat-

ings failures driven by the interaction of

photo-oxidation during daylight and hy-

drolysis during water exposure. Together,

these failures can lead to gloss loss, color

change, adhesion, blistering and cracking.

BASF has been active in the ASTM

D-01 committee on accelerated weath-ering for many years, and began efforts

in test development in response to a cus-

tomer issue. BASF brought key partners

together, developed the critical coating

formulas for testing, and conducted sev-

eral important experiments in the physi-

cal test laboratories, which resulted in the

new test method.

PPG Donates $15,000to Academics in Motion

American Coatings Conference to Kick Off with KeynoteSpeaker Charles F. Kahle From PPG

The American Coatings Conference (ACC) will commence with a keynote presenta-

tion given by Charles F. Kahle, II, chief technology officer and vice president, CoatingsR&D at PPG Industries. Starting with a wide lens on the future, Dr. Kahles address

will explore the usual technology drivers that are shaping current coatings technol-

ogy innovation, such as end-user requirements, broader sustainability demands and

critical environmental considerations. From this baseline, the address will explore

the dynamic changes driven by energy cost and availability, and how these changes

are shaping the future of coatings technology. From the price of oil and the need

for greater energy efficiency for our customers, to the role of shale gas and fracking

technology on raw material supplies, to bio-based raw materials and new pathways

for critical feedstocks, the changing energy profile has everything up for debate in

the coatings industrys drive to innovate.

The American Coatings Conference will be held in conjunction with the American

Coatings Conference April 7-10.

Reactive Surfaces Expands Patent Protection in the Middle Eastfor Self-Decontaminating Adhesives and Sealants

Reactive Surfaces has been granted an Israeli patent covering adhesives functional-

ized with enzymatic additives. The adhesives are capable of detoxifying organophos-

phorus nerve weapons and pesticides. It has also been granted an Israeli patent

covering sealants that are functionalized with its OPDtox additives resulting in rapid

nerve weapon detoxification from contaminated vehicles, buildings, and electronics

used by warfighters. A significant issue in military decontamination arises as a result of

being unable to prevent the creep of nerve agents through joints, channels, windows

and glass coverings on electronics. See, http://www.coatingsworld.com/issues/0713/view_features/wmdtox-coatings-self-decontamination-becomes-a-reality/

Asia-Pacific Biggest Marketof UV Curable Resins forCoatings and InksAsia-Pacific is the worlds largest and

fastest-growing market of UV curable

resins, which consumed more than half of

the total global demand, and also a ma-

jor consumer of radiation/energy curable

products. China and Japan are the key

consumers of UV curable resins in Asia-

Pacific, while countries including SouthKorea and Taiwan though have com-

paratively small consumption levels, are

crucial countries in terms of production.

Electronics and industrial coating end-use

segments are driving the demand for high-

performance coatings, inks, and adhe-

sives, which in turn is pushing the demand

for UV curable resins within the region.

Intensified efforts of various regulatory

authorities to promote environment-

friendly products have led to innovation

and developments in the industry, mak-ing it a strong hub and the most potential

growth market for UV curable resins and

its products. The Indian market, being a

very price competitive market, has very

small consumption levels of UV curable

resins but as per the industry experts, the

potential of the Indian market can never

be undervalued, and once the need for

performance products will catch pace,

the consumption of UV curable resins

and its products will grow significantly.

Increased Demand from End-Use IndustriesDrives the Global Acrylic Resins Market



MarketReports

coatings - the biggest end-user industry

UV curable resins are employed for the

formulation of UV curable coatings, inks,

adhesives, etc. Coatings manufacturing is

the biggest as well as the fastest-growing

application segment of UV curable resins,consuming more than 65.0 percent of the

total global demand in 2012. Due to the

green nature of UV curable coatings and

an extremely less curing time, it is seen

as an incredibly attractive alternative by

various end-user industries. Field applied

coatings and metal coating applications

(coil, automotive, etc.) are expected to

be the key growth areas for UV curable

coatings in the near future. The UV cur-

able inks market is also growing consid-

erably on account of strict norms relatedto printing on food packaging. Industrial

coating is the biggest end-user industry of

UV curable resins, consuming more than

35.0 percent of the total global demand

in 2012. The industrial coating indus-

try is dominant around the globe unlike

electronics which is only dominant in

Asia-Pacific.

Zepol Reports U.S. Importsin 2013 Were the Highest in

Six YearsZepol Corp. reports that U.S. vessel im-ports were up 3.7 percent from 2012,

which totaled more than 18.2 million

TEUs (twenty-foot container) brought

into the U.S. last year. U.S. imports in

2013 started off at a slow start but ended

with a surge from July through December.

Annual TEUs havent been this high since

2007, which is a good sign for a strong

recession rebound in the U.S. trade indus-

try, Zepol reported. So far in 2014, the

first three weeks of imports in Januaryare already 5.2 percent higher than the

same time last year.

It was a surprise to see 2013 imports

so high since the beginning of the year was

relatively stagnant, said U.S. trade ex-

pert and CEO of Zepol Paul Rasmussen,

but imports have continued to expand

during the recent economic recovery and

factors like a dropping unemployment

rate and a busy holiday shopping season

may be positive contributors for U.S. im-

porters. We expect the increasing trend tocontinue as we move into 2014.

Ceresana Analyzes GlobalMarket for StyreneIn the recently published study, the mar-

ket research institute Ceresana com-

prehensively analyzes and describes the

development of the global market forstyrene. Styrene is an important product

in the petrochemical industry and used to

manufacture a broad range of products.

The importance of styrene is reflected by

the revenues generated with this product:

market value amounted to $41.8 billion

in 2012.

Approximately 40 percent of the sty-

rene consumed worldwide in 2012 were

processed into polystyrene. Polystyrene is

used in the manufacturing of food pack-

aging as well as electrical and electronicdevices. The global economy will contin-

ue to recover during the next few years

and thus provide the general framework

for a moderate increase of demand for

this type of plastic. The report finds that

demand for polystyrene will not increase

as dynamically as demand for other stan-

dard plastics due to a change in technolo-

gies and advancing substitution processes.

Market researchers at Ceresana forecast

global demand for styrene in the produc-

tion of polystyrene to rise by, on average,2.3 percent per year.

The second largest sales market is the

production of expandable polystyrene

(EPS), which is used as insulation mate-

rial in new residential units and the refur-

bishment of old buildings, among others.

Styrene based engineering plastics, such

as acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS)

are used by the automotive and elec-

tronics industry, while styrene-butadiene

rubber (SBR) is processed into tires.

Styrene-butadiene latex (SBL) is utilizedin carpets and paper coatings. Another

application is the manufacturing of un-

saturated polyester resins (UPR), which

are processed into fiberglass suitable for

automotive bodyworks and naval vessels

due to its rigidity. According to the analy-

ses of Ceresana, the production of ABS

and EPS will provide the largest stimuli

to growth in the future. Demand in these

segments is projected to increase by 4.1

percent and 3.8 percent p.a. until 2020.

While the ABS industry is still in the ini-tial stages in many emerging countries

with excellent growth prospects,

producers of EPS in several in-

dustrialized countries are able to

profit from state-subsidies tar-

geted at increasing energy efficiency. Even

on saturated markets, this can providegrowth impulses.

In the end, consumption of styrene de-

pends on the demand of consumers for the

different styrene based products. Thus,

emerging countries exhibiting strong eco-

nomic growth and a rising income offer

a considerable potential. Conditions as

propitious as these attract investment in

the expansion of the downstream sty-

rene industry. On the long term, this will

lead to an establishing of an ever larger

part of the value creation chain in thesecountries. As result, demand for styrene

in some countries will rise significantly.

An example for a development of this

kind is China. In the past eight years, de-

mand for styrene in this country rose by

9.6 percent per year. China is the world-

wide largest sales market, accounting for

31.5 percent of market shares in 2012.

The U.S. followed at a considerable dis-

tance, after demand for styrene fell by, on

average, 1.9 percent p.a. since 2004.

Global production of styrene is in-creasingly relocating to emerging coun-

tries, while developed industrialized

regions reduced capacities considerably

in the last few years, especially Western

Europe and the U.S. This shift was trig-

gered by a previous excessive increase

of production capacity at a time when

demand for styrene rose at less dynamic

rates or even declined in the aftermath

of the global economic crisis. An effect

of this process was the decline of glob-

al capacity utilization to 75 percent in2009. While production capacities were

relocated, degree of global capacity uti-

lization rose again. This development is

likely to continue; we forecast the highest

relative increase of styrene production

until 2020 to occur in South America

and the Middle East. The production ca-

pacity in these countries with extensive

crude oil resources will increase to 4.8

million tons in 2020. Ceresana expects

output in South America to increase by,

on average, 13.4 percent p.a. during thenext eight years.CW
