SpecialChem S.A. and Rohm and Haas Company in Europe announced that they have entered into a partnership to offer 100% acrylic solutions to coatings formulators online, 24/7.They are jointly helping paint formulators to benefit from water-based solutions based on 100% acrylic technology, which is widely acknowledged as providing superior durability, film-flexibility, water-resistance, gloss-retention, surface-adhesion, as well as blocking properties and chemical resistance, when used across a variety of formulations, substrates and conditions. The environmental compatibility of water-based acrylic solutions is also an advantage versus competitive solvent-based systems.

Second, solvent-free products are one of the more significant advances in the coatings industry. And with Rohm and Haas in Europe on board, we will today be able to offer the best technical solutions and assistance to our community of over 20,000 members."
