Acrylic resins are an indispensable and commonly used resin in water-based coatings. They are widely used in metal coatings, ABS and PC coatings, and glass coatings requiring hardness, especially solid acrylic resins.

There are many types of solid acrylic resins. Some solid acrylic resins can be used to produce water-based paints, including the currently popular UV-cured coatings and high-solids coatings. With increasing environmental awareness, water-based coatings are bound to become the mainstream.

Advantages of solid acrylic resins:

Low storage and transportation costs, good safety.

Most solid acrylic resins use methacrylates as the main monomer, and their weather resistance and chemical resistance are superior to acrylic monomers and styrene. They have good potential for promotion in exterior architectural coatings, containers, and automotive refinish paints.

Because certain types of solid acrylic resins can be used as water-based UV-cured paints and high-solids coatings, adjusting the monomers can produce low-pollution and low-odor acrylic exterior architectural coatings. Solid acrylic resins contribute to the development of low-pollution coatings in the coating industry. Domestically produced solid acrylic resins are now in mass production, achieving similar performance to imported resins in certain aspects, such as dissolution speed and weather resistance, thus making a new contribution to the promotion of acrylic paints.

Organosilicon-modified acrylic resins

In addition, organosilicon-modified acrylic resins are also at the forefront of development, as they can be used in the automotive industry for elastic topcoats and interior and exterior wall paints.

Organosilicon-modified acrylic coatings are high-performance coatings created by introducing organosilicon polymers into the acrylate structure through a reaction. Silyl chloride-acrylic resin coatings have good performance and excellent adhesion to non-ferrous metals and various plastics.

Therefore, its applications are constantly being developed. To meet the latest requirements, users urgently need to develop single-component resin products with good coating application properties and the same performance as two-component products.
