Bio-Based Powder Coatings: Bridging Sustainability and High Performance
As industries scramble to meet net-zero targets, a quiet revolution is unfolding in the powder coating sector: plant-derived resins are replacing petroleum-based chemistries without compromising performance. Unlike generic “eco-friendly” claims, bio-based powder coatings offer measurable advantages that resonate with both manufacturers and ESG auditors. The Science Behind Bio-Based Formulations Bio-based powders utilize renewable resources like: Soybean oil esters for flexible film formation Lignin from wood pulp as a crosslinking agent Terpene resins (from citrus waste) enhancing UV resistance A 2023 study in Coatings Technology Journal revealed thatRead More …
