Coatings World has always been a supporter of the academic side
of the paint and coatings industry. As such we make it a point of
attending as many education-related events as we can. One event
that we never miss is the Waterborne, High-Solids and Powder Coatings
Symposium, which will be held this year February 24-28 in New Orleans.
Held annually by the University of Southern Mississippis School of
Polymers and High Performance Materials, this event brings together the
brightest students with the top companies involved in the formulation of
waterborne and other environmentally friendly coatings. And all of the
proceeds from this Symposium go to fund the students and the Polymer
Science program at USM.
This year I am proud to announce that we will not just be attendees,but will be actively participating in the Symposium. Our publisher, Dale
Pritchett, will be moderating a Pigments Panel and an Automotive Panel.
The Automotive Panel will include presentations from automotive manu-
facturers Ford and Toyota as well as PPG automotive coatings and Sun
Chemical pigments.
In addition, contributing editors Steve and Beth McDaniel of Technology
Litigators will be presenting an overview of some of their more popular
topics discussed in their monthly column iPaint.
If you are planning on attending the event please stop by our tabletop
exhibit and pick up the latest issue of our magazine.

Fresh
Paint
Axalta Coating Systems recently broke
ground to expand its manufacturing capac-
ity for coatings with the construction of a
new $50 million eco-friendly waterborne
facility in the Jiading district of Shanghai.
Expected to begin production in
2015, Axaltas Shanghai waterborne fa-
cility will manufacture and supply up
to 25,000 metric tons of its waterborne
products. Axaltas technological leader-
ship in waterborne paints and expanded
capacity for waterborne production willsupport the long term growth of an auto-
motive industry that is extending into the
southern and western areas of the coun-
try. Both Axalta products and the manu-
facturing facility itself will contribute to
the overall sustainable development of
Chinas automotive industry.
We invested in this facility to meet
growing customer needs for high-perfor-
mance water-based coatings solutions.
With this new facility, we are expand-
ing our capacity to provide waterbornepaints to help Chinas auto industry de-
velop sustainably, Charles Shaver chair-
man and CEO, Axalta told the audience
at the ground breaking ceremony. Our
technological leadership focuses on de-
veloping environmentally friendly coat-
ing solutions. Our new facility will also
employ the latest generation production
systems to reduce the environmental foot-
print of our operations.
Axaltas waterborne production pro-
cess utilizes a global waterborne technol-ogy system to produce Lean and Green
Automotive Coatings that automo-
bile original equipment manufacturers
(OEMs) can use to significantly reduce
volatile organic compounds (VOCs), en-
ergy consumption and investment. The
Lean and Green Automotive Coating
process includes primer-less coatings and
3-wet coatings which can achieve full lay-
er performance without having to flash
and bake between coats. The increased
productivity results in a better bottomline for customers while still producing
an unparalleled finish on vehicles. In ad-
dition, Axaltas waterborne products are
intrinsically environmentally responsible
and meet global environmental require-
ments, such as the EUs VOC Regulation
2004/42/EC which Axalta adheres to
in China, and which can help reduce
the overall environmental footprint of
Chinas auto industry.
We appreciate Axaltas forward
thinking approach to product develop-
ment, explained Sun Lianying, chairmanof the China National Coating Industry
Association. Axaltas eco-friendly pro-
duction process is aligned with Chinas
direction to develop in a sustainable path
and we look forward to witnessing the
construction of the Axalta Shanghai wa-
terborne facility.
Over the past two years, the Chinese
government has issued a series of regu-
lations to decrease the environmental
burden of the auto industry, including
the requirement for all new automotivemanufacturer production lines to use eco-
friendly waterborne coating products.
This foresight for the future will have a
tremendous impact on the sustainable de-
velopment of Chinas auto. industry.
We are very pleased to see that Axalta
has continuously invested in expanding
its production of technologically supe-
rior products tailored specifically to our
local demands, said Wang Zhongcheng,
vice president of FAW-VW Chengdu.
As one of Chinas leading automobilemanufacturers, FAW-VW is moving to a
sustainable model for development and
the waterborne products produced at this
facility will help us achieve our business
objectives in the region.
Valspar Paint Unveils 2014Color OutlookValspar Paint recently revealed its 2014
Color Outlook and trend palettes. In
2014, Valspar predicts the theme of re-
defining the home will grow in impor-tance in the coming year and has curated
three distinct color palettes that embrace
this forecasted trend. Each color pal-
ette Zenergy, Time Traveler and Yours
Truly is inspired by the newest under-
lying influences and movements that are
expressed in fashion, food, art, interior
design and lifestyle.
In 2014, consumers will be redefin-
ing what matters and will feel a grow-
ing awareness of whats important, said
Sue Kim, Valspar color strategist. The
Valspar 2014 Color Outlook draws onthis trend, with color palettes that are
inspired by how people are purposefully
incorporating these redefined experiences
into their daily lives.
Zenergy, Time Traveler and Yours
Truly are color palettes that serve to re-
store spirits with a return to simplicity, re-
connect us to cultures and customs gone
by, and reinvent style with expressions
of creativity. Colors in the palettes range
from serene cool hues to grounded earthy
tones to bold traditional colors, offeringa wide variety of color choices to refresh
any room in the home.
There is cohesion to the story of each
of the trend palettes, but the strong ver-
satility and range of the individual colors
encourages experimentation and self-ex-
pression in the home as we seek to rede-
fine in the year ahead, continued Kim.
With options that complement every
personal taste and dcor style, the Valspar
2014 Color Outlook gives consumers the
confidence they need during the color se-lection process to choose a color they will
love and create a beautiful space.
This marks the fifth annual Valspar
Color Outlook, which each year exam-
ines new prevailing directions and inspi-
rations that are beginning to be expressed
in functional art forms and lifestyle.
Valspar research looks at broad global
issues, consumer behaviors and the econ-
omy and analyzes how these influences
filter down to interior colors, materials
and finishes. The Valspar Color Outlookand trend palettes serve to capture the

BASF and OEMs DevelopASTM Test Standard forTransportation CoatingsA collaborative 14-year effort involv-
ing BASF, automotive and aerospace
original equipment manufacturers(OEMs), material suppliers and test
equipment manufacturers has resulted
in a new American Society for Testing
and Materials (ASTM) test standard for
transportation coatings.
The new method is 30 to 40 percent
faster than the previous test standard
used for many OEMs, and improves
the accuracy to nearly 100 percent in
predicting coating service life compared
to less than 50 percent with the previ-
ous standard. Industry implementationof this new test can speed new product
development, and aid in the development
of better overall products for the coating
industry. This test can be used for auto-
mobiles, aircrafts, trucks and rail cars.
Officially named ASTM D7869-
13 Standard Practice for Xenon Arc
Exposure Test with Enhanced Light
and Water Exposure for Transportation
Coatings, the new test simulates physical
and environmental stresses that an exte-
rior transportation coating is exposed toin a subtropical climate. These stresses
include long water exposures, wet/dry cy-
cling, and high dosages of solar radiation,
all of which have been shown to cause
severe coatings deterioration.
The new test conditions consist of a
primary test cycle and a sub-cycle. The
primary test includes two long water ex-
posures and a single, long light exposure
with precise spectral match to daylight.
The sub-cycle consists of shorter alternat-ing water and light exposures and is de-
signed to simulate cyclic stresses such as
cracking and surface erosion.
These two cycles are designed to
replicate the common types of coat-
ings failures driven by the interaction of
photo-oxidation during daylight and hy-
drolysis during water exposure. Together,
these failures can lead to gloss loss, color
change, adhesion, blistering and cracking.
BASF has been active in the ASTM
D-01 committee on accelerated weath-ering for many years, and began efforts
in test development in response to a cus-
tomer issue. BASF brought key partners
together, developed the critical coating
formulas for testing, and conducted sev-
eral important experiments in the physi-
cal test laboratories, which resulted in the
new test method.
PPG Donates $15,000to Academics in Motion
through SteelersPartnershipThe PPG Industries Foundation, in partner-
ship with the Pittsburgh Steelers, has donat-
ed $15,000 to Academics in Motion (AIM)
to make this national program available in
American Coatings Conference to Kick Off with KeynoteSpeaker Charles F. Kahle From PPG
The American Coatings Conference (ACC) will commence with a keynote presenta-
tion given by Charles F. Kahle, II, chief technology officer and vice president, CoatingsR&D at PPG Industries. Starting with a wide lens on the future, Dr. Kahles address
will explore the usual technology drivers that are shaping current coatings technol-
ogy innovation, such as end-user requirements, broader sustainability demands and
critical environmental considerations. From this baseline, the address will explore
the dynamic changes driven by energy cost and availability, and how these changes
are shaping the future of coatings technology. From the price of oil and the need
for greater energy efficiency for our customers, to the role of shale gas and fracking
technology on raw material supplies, to bio-based raw materials and new pathways
for critical feedstocks, the changing energy profile has everything up for debate in
the coatings industrys drive to innovate.
The American Coatings Conference will be held in conjunction with the American
Coatings Conference April 7-10.

Asia-Pacific Biggest Marketof UV Curable Resins forCoatings and InksAsia-Pacific is the worlds largest and
fastest-growing market of UV curable
resins, which consumed more than half of
the total global demand, and also a ma-
jor consumer of radiation/energy curable
products. China and Japan are the key
consumers of UV curable resins in Asia-
Pacific, while countries including SouthKorea and Taiwan though have com-
paratively small consumption levels, are
crucial countries in terms of production.
Electronics and industrial coating end-use

MarketReports
coatings - the biggest end-user industry
UV curable resins are employed for the
formulation of UV curable coatings, inks,
adhesives, etc. Coatings manufacturing is
the biggest as well as the fastest-growing
application segment of UV curable resins,consuming more than 65.0 percent of the
total global demand in 2012. Due to the
green nature of UV curable coatings and
an extremely less curing time, it is seen
as an incredibly attractive alternative by
various end-user industries. Field applied
coatings and metal coating applications
(coil, automotive, etc.) are expected to
be the key growth areas for UV curable
coatings in the near future. The UV cur-
able inks market is also growing consid-
erably on account of strict norms relatedto printing on food packaging. Industrial
coating is the biggest end-user industry of
UV curable resins, consuming more than
35.0 percent of the total global demand
in 2012. The industrial coating indus-
try is dominant around the globe unlike
electronics which is only dominant in
Asia-Pacific.
Zepol Reports U.S. Importsin 2013 Were the Highest in
Six YearsZepol Corp. reports that U.S. vessel im-ports were up 3.7 percent from 2012,
which totaled more than 18.2 million
TEUs (twenty-foot container) brought
into the U.S. last year. U.S. imports in
2013 started off at a slow start but ended
with a surge from July through December.
Annual TEUs havent been this high since
2007, which is a good sign for a strong
recession rebound in the U.S. trade indus-
try, Zepol reported. So far in 2014, the
first three weeks of imports in Januaryare already 5.2 percent higher than the
same time last year.
It was a surprise to see 2013 imports
so high since the beginning of the year was
relatively stagnant, said U.S. trade ex-
pert and CEO of Zepol Paul Rasmussen,
but imports have continued to expand
during the recent economic recovery and
factors like a dropping unemployment
rate and a busy holiday shopping season
may be positive contributors for U.S. im-
porters. We expect the increasing trend tocontinue as we move into 2014.
Ceresana Analyzes GlobalMarket for StyreneIn the recently published study, the mar-
ket research institute Ceresana com-
prehensively analyzes and describes the
development of the global market forstyrene. Styrene is an important product
in the petrochemical industry and used to
manufacture a broad range of products.
The importance of styrene is reflected by
the revenues generated with this product:
market value amounted to $41.8 billion
in 2012.
Approximately 40 percent of the sty-
rene consumed worldwide in 2012 were
processed into polystyrene. Polystyrene is
used in the manufacturing of food pack-
aging as well as electrical and electronicdevices. The global economy will contin-
ue to recover during the next few years
and thus provide the general framework
for a moderate increase of demand for
this type of plastic. The report finds that
demand for polystyrene will not increase
as dynamically as demand for other stan-
dard plastics due to a change in technolo-
gies and advancing substitution processes.
Market researchers at Ceresana forecast
global demand for styrene in the produc-
tion of polystyrene to rise by, on average,2.3 percent per year.
The second largest sales market is the
production of expandable polystyrene
(EPS), which is used as insulation mate-
rial in new residential units and the refur-
bishment of old buildings, among others.
Styrene based engineering plastics, such
as acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS)
are used by the automotive and elec-
tronics industry, while styrene-butadiene
rubber (SBR) is processed into tires.
Styrene-butadiene latex (SBL) is utilizedin carpets and paper coatings. Another
application is the manufacturing of un-
saturated polyester resins (UPR), which
are processed into fiberglass suitable for
automotive bodyworks and naval vessels
due to its rigidity. According to the analy-
ses of Ceresana, the production of ABS
and EPS will provide the largest stimuli
to growth in the future. Demand in these
segments is projected to increase by 4.1
percent and 3.8 percent p.a. until 2020.
While the ABS industry is still in the ini-tial stages in many emerging countries
with excellent growth prospects,
producers of EPS in several in-
dustrialized countries are able to
profit from state-subsidies tar-
geted at increasing energy efficiency. Even
on saturated markets, this can providegrowth impulses.
In the end, consumption of styrene de-
pends on the demand of consumers for the
different styrene based products. Thus,
emerging countries exhibiting strong eco-
nomic growth and a rising income offer
a considerable potential. Conditions as
propitious as these attract investment in
the expansion of the downstream sty-
rene industry. On the long term, this will
lead to an establishing of an ever larger
part of the value creation chain in thesecountries. As result, demand for styrene
in some countries will rise significantly.
An example for a development of this
kind is China. In the past eight years, de-
mand for styrene in this country rose by
9.6 percent per year. China is the world-
wide largest sales market, accounting for
31.5 percent of market shares in 2012.
The U.S. followed at a considerable dis-
tance, after demand for styrene fell by, on
average, 1.9 percent p.a. since 2004.
Global production of styrene is in-creasingly relocating to emerging coun-
tries, while developed industrialized
regions reduced capacities considerably
in the last few years, especially Western
Europe and the U.S. This shift was trig-
gered by a previous excessive increase
of production capacity at a time when
demand for styrene rose at less dynamic
rates or even declined in the aftermath
of the global economic crisis. An effect
of this process was the decline of glob-
al capacity utilization to 75 percent in2009. While production capacities were
relocated, degree of global capacity uti-
lization rose again. This development is
likely to continue; we forecast the highest
relative increase of styrene production
until 2020 to occur in South America
and the Middle East. The production ca-
pacity in these countries with extensive
crude oil resources will increase to 4.8
million tons in 2020. Ceresana expects
output in South America to increase by,
on average, 13.4 percent p.a. during thenext eight years.CW
