Industrial Coatings
The main trend in Industrial coatings being to switch from solvent-based to water-based coatings, formulators need to adapt.
They will more and more use water-based raw materials, including water-based pigment dispersions.
LANXESS is ready to support formulators in this shift, and advise them the appropriate grades depending on the specific application and need.
