General Paint
...hat's available. to do this, our master mixologists start with the superior ingredients, combined to their exacting proportions. along with other ingredients, like specially formulated acrylic polymers, we use substantially more solid pigment and resin in our products, plus more functional paint solids than other leading premium paints. this quality means our paint slides more easily,...
Valspar Architectual Coatings
...terior and exterior decorative paints and aerosols for architectural use, coatings and inks for rigid packaging containers, automotive and fleet refinish products, floor coatings, and specialty polymers, composites and colorants. this array makes us one of the most complete suppliers anywhere. our product offering is diverse, ranging from coatings for the home to automotive refinish an...
Mohawk Air.O
...on process, while the carpet’s resistance to moisture and allergens reduces the need for frequent replacements, embodying both economic and environmental sustainability. moreover, the use of advanced polymers in the creation of air.o carpet fibers underscores mohawk's commitment to environmental stewardship, as these materials are free from latex and harmful vocs, ensuring the carpet is safe, odor...
Adhesives
...o types of adhesives that harden by drying: solvent-based adhesives and polymer dispersion adhesives, also known as emulsion adhesives. solvent-based adhesives are a mixture of ingredients (typically polymers) dissolved in a solvent. white glue, contact adhesives and rubber cements are members of the drying adhesive family. as the solvent evaporates, the adhesive hardens. depending on the chemical...
Industrial Mats
...hstand the rigorous demands of industrial environments, such as factories, warehouses, and manufacturing facilities. typically constructed from heavy-duty materials like rubber, vinyl, or specialized polymers, these mats provide excellent resistance to wear and tear, chemical spills, and heavy equipment traffic. they often feature slip-resistant surfaces to enhance safety by reducing the risk of s...
Americhem Expands Global Reach Through Acquisition of Controlled Polymers in Denmark
...lobally recognized designer and manufacturer of custom color masterbatch, functional additives, engineered compounds, and performance technologies, has announced that it has acquired controlled polymers, a leading global manufacturer of customized compounds and masterbatch for the medical industry and other industries. with 30 years of experience, controlled polymers is located in denmar...
Hallmark Floors Vinyl 101
...mon saltlike all plastic materials, vinyl results from a series of processing steps that convert hydrocarbon-based raw materials (petroleum, natural gas or coal) into unique synthetic products called polymers. the vinyl polymer is unusual, however, because it is based only in part on hydrocarbon feedstock’s: ethylene obtained by processing, or cracking, natural gas or petroleum. the other half of ...
pigment
...Highly colored, insoluble substance used to impart color to other materials. White pigments, e.g., titanium dioxide, are dispersed in fiber polymers to produce delustered (semi-dull and dull) fibers. Colored pigments are added to polymer to create producer colored or solution dyed yarns...
polymer
...Polymers are large chemical molecules from which synthetic fibers are made. Polymers are complex, chain-like molecules made by uniting simpler molecules called monomers. Synthetic polymers used for commercial carpet fiber include Type 6,6 nylon and Type 6 nylon (polyamides) and polypropylene...
polyurethane
...A large family of polymers often used in floor coatings because urethane films can provide greater hardness without brittleness than is possible with most other polymers. They also have good chemical resistance combined with good adhesion. Aliphatic urethanes (water-based) are made by reacting organic isocyanate with compounds containing a hydroxyl (OH) group...
resilient floors
...Resilient floors are created from carefully selected natural and synthetic materials. Today`s resilient flooring is a highly engineered combination of polymer materials. Polymers are large molecules composed of repeating structural units, which allow for increased strength and durability for the lifetime of the product...
solid vinyl tile
...lient tile flooring composed of binder, fillers and pigments compounded with suitable stabilizers and processing aids. The tile meets requirements of ASTM Specification F 1700. The binder consists of polymers and/or copolymers of vinyl chloride, other modifying resins, and plasticizers which comprise at least 34% by weight of the finished tile. The polymers and copolymers of vinyl chloride compris...
vinyl tile flooring
...A resilient floor covering composed of binder, fillers, and pigments. The binder shall consist of one or more resins of poly (vinyl chloride), or vinyl chloride copolymers, or both, compounded with suitable plasticizers and stabilizers. Other polymeric resins may be incorporated as part of the binder. ...
synthetic materials
...Synthetic materials are human-made substances engineered through chemical processes, often using polymers derived from natural resources such as petroleum. Unlike natural materials like wood, cotton, or stone, synthetic materials are manufactured to possess specific properties that enhance their performance in various applications. Common synthetic materials include plastics, nylon, polyester, ...
