| Résumé : |
A new intelligent waterborne concept is helping automotive companies meet emission limits.
Stringent emission standards call for smart solutions. DuPont Performance Coatings (DPC) claims it is the world's first paint manufacturer to have introduced a waterborne basecoat system for the automotive industry that dries just as quickly as conventional solvent-borne basecoat.
This explains why the company's newly developed LCCC system can easily be integrated into conventional paint lines. The cost of changing over to the ecologically acceptable new system is less than 10% of the investment costs otherwise needed for a new paint line using waterborne materials.
The countries of Europe and North America set ambitious goals for the future of our environment when they approved the Göteborg protocol at the end of the millennium : two new environmental directives to reduce solvent emissions must be met by all automotive plants in Europe by 2007 (Solvent emissions directive, Integrated pollution prevention and control directive).
Total VOC emissions in the industrialised nations of Europe must be reduced by around 70% compared to the figures for 1990. This is a strong incentive for introducing waterborne coatings. |
