| Résumé : |
An acrylic binder, which meets proposed requirements, regarding reduced levels of residual monomers and biocides, has been developed that also keeps indoor air quality as fresh as possible, as the author explains.
The increasing demand for more environmentally friendly interior paints is going hand—in-hand with more strict regulations of Volatile Organic Compounds, VOCs, Semi Volatile Organic Compounds, S-VOCs and biocides in the final products. The proposed new requirements of Ecolabel states that the total level of residual monomers in polymers may not be more than 100ppm. Furthermore, there is a discussion about reducing the allowed amount of 2-methy1- 2H-isothiazol-3-one, MIT, to be used to 15 ppm.
As a producer of waterborne polymer binders for indoor paints we have to consider ail these proposais and discussions. Therefore, an acrylic binder, which meets even the proposed requirements regarding reduced levels of residual monomers and biocides, has been developed. |
