  • Preparation of Shellac Resin Microcapsules Coated with Urea Formaldehyde Resin and Properties of Waterborne Paint Films for Tilia Amurensis Rupr
    membranes Article Preparation of Shellac Resin Microcapsules Coated with Urea Formaldehyde Resin and Properties of Waterborne Paint Films for Tilia amurensis Rupr. Xiaoxing Yan 1,2,* and Lin Wang 2 1 Co-Innovation Center of Efficient Processing and Utilization of Forest Resources, Nanjing Forestry University, Nanjing 210037, China 2 College of Furnishings and Industrial Design, Nanjing Forestry University, Nanjing 210037, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 2 September 2020; Accepted: 9 October 2020; Published: 12 October 2020 Abstract: A two-step in situ polymerization method was utilized to fabricate urea formaldehyde (UF) resin-coated shellac resin microcapsules. The morphology and composition of microcapsules with different core-wall ratios were analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and infrared (IR) spectrum. The effects of different concentrations of microcapsules on gloss, color difference, hardness, adhesion, and impact resistance of waterborne paint films were studied. At the same time, the self-healing effect of the prepared microcapsules applied to waterborne paint film was discussed. The results revealed that the shellac resin microcapsules coated with UF resin were successfully prepared. At the 0.67:1 and 0.75:1 core-wall ratios, the color differences of the paint film with 0–20.0% (weight percent) microcapsules were small and the color was uniform. Under the condition of 60◦ incident angle and the same microcapsule concentration, a good gloss was obtained. When the concentration was 20.0%, the hardness of paint film reached the maximum value. The adhesion of paint film was better, which was not affected by microcapsule concentration. When the concentration was 5.0% and 10.0%, the microstructure of paint film was good.

Controlling and protecting your water www.caleffi.com - Milwaukee, WI USA FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER & CEO Dear Plumbing and Hydronic Professional, It was the 1990s when I attempted my first soldering job. What a mess! Although the replacement water softener ended up working fine, my workmanship was nothing short of “bush league”. There was more solder on the basement floor and on the outside of the pipe, than there was in the completed joint. Fortunately the softener was in my own home. I’ve long since moved on from there but would not be surprised if someday that work is posted up on one of those “hacked-up install” websites! That experience gave me an appreciation for the skill that goes into producing a reliable pipe connection in a timely manner. Fast forwarding to today there are several new pipe joining technologies available that not only produce a reliable connection, but require significantly less time than traditional methods. As skilled labor becomes increasingly scarce, it’s likely that manufacturers will introduce even more innovate “quick-joining” technologies and methods. This issue of idronics discusses classic and contemporary methods of joining piping in hydronic and plumbing applications.

  • Commercial Glazing Guide Glazing Guide Introduction
    Architectural Coating Systems COMMERCIAL GLAZING GUIDE GLAZING GUIDE INTRODUCTION For more than 85 years, Tremco has been a market leader in the design, development and manufacture of glazing products for use in commercial construction applications. During this time, processes have changed dramatically for window and curtain wall systems. Window units have become larger, higher performing glass is available, and performance standards have increased — all placing a greater demand on the glazing materials used to seal and support the glass to or within the surrounding metal. As a result, we have continued to evolve, culminating in the development of our Sustainable Building Solutions Test Facility, which is designed for testing connection points in wall assemblies, as well as other building and design challenges facing the built environment. The only single-source supplier offering a complete line of glazing sealants, tapes, and gaskets, Tremco is focused on protecting the entire building envelope and ensuring product compatibility through documented, tested performance. Tremco also supplies compatible perimeter caulking and weatherproofing materials to complement your window or wall system. The details shown in this document describe available materials and their placement for generic applications and are not intended to reflect the actual design of the window unit or system. We recommend you work closely with your Tremco Representative. These experienced individuals will assist in the selection of the proper glazing materials to suit your application and project specification. 2 Factors Influencing Glazing Performance 4 Guidelines for Exceptional Glazing 6 Wet Glazing 8 Wet/Dry Glazing Systems 10 Dry Glazing Systems 12 Structural Silicone Glazing Integrated Systems 14 Sloped Glazing Designed for Superior 16 Plastic Glazing Performance 18 Protective Glazing 19 Hurricane/Impact Resistant Systems 20 Restoration 21 Reglazing Curtain Wall and Window Systems Tremco CS&W has nearly 50 products certified to GREENGUARD and GREENGUARD Children and Schools criteria.
