Résumé : |
Every year, approximately 43 million tons of coatings are used worldwide: they protect surfaces from corrosion, give them special characteristics such as electrical or thermal conductivity, extend the longevity of consumer goods, and often have a decorative character. At the same time, the demands placed on coatings are constantly increasing, and paint formulators must constantly meet new requirements in the face of evergrowing complexity and changing regulatory framework. |
