Résumé : |
Increasing regulatory restrictions mean that there are limited preservation options currently available to the paint and coatings industry for both in-can and dry-film preservation. Experimental binders and thickeners that are more robust to microbial spoilage offer a potential solution and pass challenge testing even when formulated into waterborne paints.
Water-based products are susceptible to microbial contamination. Contamination can be introduced during a variety of stages in the product life cycle, including manufacturing and packaging of the products ; "in can" during periods of storage, transportation, transfer, and usage; or on the dry film after application. Microbial susceptibility can cause product degradation, reduce product performance, or even induce hygiene and human health issues, which could result in a wide range of possible consequences, including product recall, customer complaints, reduced perception of product quality, production stoppage, etc. For these reasons, manufacturers add biocides to their waterborne products.
There are three aspects of coating preservation. The first is in-can preservation, which protects all liquid-state products with preservatives. The second aspect of preserving coatings is dry-film protection, which protects coatings from microbes in application areas such as in bathrooms, kitchens, and on exterior surfaces. Lastly, plant hygiene is critical for coatings preservation. If a tank or a pipe becomes contaminated, it can contaminate the final product. Each of these three aspects requires a different approach for preservation. From the consumer’s perspective, the biocides that are present in the final product are the most important: both for in-can and dry-film preservation. Ideally, antimicrobial materials would maximize efficacy, while minimizing toxicity and environmental persistence. Active antimicrobial ingredients need to be stable within the shelf life of the product to maintain product quality, but also biodegradable when exposed to the environment to deliver eco-friendly products. Furthermore, they need to be effective against microbes but non-toxic to other life forms. Balancing these needs is difficult to achieve in reality. |
