Do you know what Carboset resin can do in a water'based coating? Consider these facts. Carboset film-forming resins can give you water-based coatings which impart excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals, weather and abrasion. Carboset resins offer outstanding adhesion to a variety of substrates. Use them for thermoplastic or thermosetting coating systems on metal, wood, plastics—even treated polyolefins. Carbosets have low toxicity. Meet FDA requirements for many food contact applications. You can achieve coatings that are clear and glossy, or you can blend pigment directly into the system. Carboset resins act as dispersants, eliminating the need for soaps and wetting agents that
might reduce water resistance. Coating formulations containing Carboset will spray and dip—or roller-coat like solvent-based systems. Freeze-thaw stability is excellent. Overspray can be re-cycled and reused. If you're looking for maximum durability in water-based protective coatings, try using a system based on Carboset resins cured with melamine formaldehyde or epoxy resin crosslinking agents. Chances are, you'll find some pleasant surprises. For complete facts, write B.F.Goodrich Chemical Company, Dept. CN-56, 6100 Oak Tree Boulevard, Cleveland, Ohio 44131.
