ach week I am bombarded with news about the latest round of
price increases from raw material suppliers, which in turn force
paint makers to raise the prices on their end products. It is a
viscous cycle and one that is not going away anytime soon as the global econ-
omy continues to climb out of recession mode and political instability around
the world sends oil prices up.
In fact, oil prices have jumped 24 percent since the middle of February
when rebellion broke out in Libya and eventually squeezed off production
that supplied nearly two percent of the worlds oil. As a result fuel prices have
been increasing. Add to the mix a scarcity of natural resources and youve got
all the ingredients for a bad business cocktail.
Price hikes are the new norm in our modern age, whether were flling up at the
gas station, buying milk in the grocery store or procuring the latest batch of raw
materials for next quarters line run. Here are some recent price announcements.
Celanese Corp. increased prices on emulsions used in adhesives, paint, coat-
ings, carpet and textiles, in response to higher oil costs. The increase includes
three cents per pound for vinyl acetate homopolymers and vinyl acetate eth-
ylene emulsions, both used in adhesives. Vinyl acrylic emulsions, a paint, coat-
ing and adhesive additive, are up by fve cents per pound and pure acrylic
emulsions, also used in paint, are rising by nine cents per pound.
Omonova Solutions Specialty Chemicals implemented a price increase of
six cents per dry pound for styrene butadiene emulsion polymers. The frm
also announced a two percent price increase for Plioway and Pliolite acrylic
copolymer dry resins, and a three cents to fve cents per pound increase on
Pliotec acrylic and styrene acrylic lattices, depending on the grade.
Evonik Carbon Black GmbH, a subsidiary of Evonik Industries, increased
prices for Carbon Black Pigments and Pigments Preparations Corasol, Derus-
sol, Tack and Colcolor by up to 10 percent for deliveries to locations in Eu-
rope, Asia and ROW. Prices for shipments in the NAFTA Region increased by
up to twelve cents per pound.
Faced with continued increases in the costs of raw materials and volatility in
the global supply chain, Sun Chemical Performance Pigments will raise global
prices on Quinacridone and Perylene high performance pigments by up to 10 per-
cent and Violet 23 pigments by $4.50 per pound, effective May 1, 2011.
The automotive OEM coatings business of PPG will implement price in-
creases and surcharges for its electrocoat primer coatings line and related
products effective May 1. PPGs protective and marine coatings (PMC) busi-
ness is also raising prices globally. International Paint, the protective and ma-
rine coating arm of AkzoNobel, also initiated product price rises in response
to spiraling global raw material costs.
AkzoNobel Powder Coatings Europe West increased prices between 8.5
and 19 percent. Italian frm Inver SPA increased the prices of powder coatings
from 10 to 15 percent. DuPont Industrial CoatingSolutions, North America
has increased prices across all liquid and powder coatings products by up to
15 percent.
Against the background of rising raw material costs, Henkel implemented
a price increase for certain product groups of its industrial adhesives. On av-
erage, the price increases range from 10 to 25 percent.

Have you looked at vinyl-based
resin technology lately?
f o r mu l a t e . ma n u f a c t u r e . ma r k e t . p a i n t . l i v e .
When we introduced our new EcoVAE emulsions last year, we told you
that VAE (vinyl acetate ethylene) technology would be the foundation for a new
generation of consumer pleasing, eco-friendly paints. After just over a year in the
market, formulators of all types of paints have found that EcoVAE strikes the bal-
ance that everyone has been looking for in making high quality, high performing,
people-friendly products.
Theyve discovered that formulating with EcoVAE is uncomplicated. That the paints
they make with it show excellent scrub, stain resistance and touch-up performance.
And that EcoVAE technology is suitable for a broad range of interior paints from
premium brands to contractor flats.
If youve already found EcoVAE, thanks for your support. If you haventmaybe its time
you discovered the next generation low VOC emulsion that everyone in the North American
paint industry is talking about.
Your future is our focusworldwide.
Find the balance youre looking for.

Dogged by asbestos claims, United
Gilsonite Laboratories (UGL) has fled a
voluntary petition for Chapter 11 bank-
ruptcy reorganization in a Pennsylvania
U.S. district court. The paint and coatings
manufacturer is seeking court approval to
establish a trust fund to settle outstanding
claims and an injunction preventing as-
bestos-related awards except though the
trust. UGL used asbestos in joint compound
but discontinued the practice more than
thirty years ago, according to the company.
In recent years weve been burdened
with signifcant asbestos claims that threaten
to undermine our strong company, said
Thomas White, president of UGL, in a pre-
pared statement. This fling is a proactive
step to ensure the continued success of UGL
for the long-term and we are pleased that
there is a clear path to effectively resolve
these historic liabilities fully and fnally.
If the court approves the establishment
of a trust, UGL and its insurers would cre-
ate a pool of revenue and asbestos claimants
would petition a committee for payments.
We will put money in the court-ap-
proved trust for asbestos victims in order to
win immunity from future lawsuits, said
Michele Margotta Neary, UGLs public re-
lations director. Once that trust is funded,
UGL will immerge in the free and clear. This
will be the only money available to asbestos
victims. It is a sound fnancial decision be-
cause at this point, we were fghting claims
with no end in sight and with uncertainty of
the dollar amount.
GM approves 1100755 Elegance
Clearcoat from Sherwin-
Williams Automotive Finishes
General Motors has approved new
1100755 Elegance clearcoat from Sher-
win-Williams Automotive Finishes
(SWAF) on a global basis. The clearcoat
has undergone certifcation to meet the
GMW15406 standard that General Mo-
tors sets to assure that vehicles repaired at
its dealerships use automotive refnish
products of high quality. Elegance
clearcoat is designed for force-dry/booth
applications and is recommended for use
on multi-panel repairs or overall fnishing.
Celanese appoints Algol
Chemicals distributor for
Russia and Ukraine
Celanese Emulsions Polymers has ap-
pointed Algol Chemicals as its distributor
in Russia and the Ukraine for all its water-
based binders into all end use applications.
Representatives from both companies
signed the agreement on Wednesday at the
European Coatings Show to emphasize the
commitment of both parties to the paint
and coatings industry in Russia.
Algol Chemicals has a long history
of doing business in Russia and we are
convinced they will assist us in reaching
our growth goals by extending the reach
of vinyl acetate/ethylene (VAE) emulsions
in this region, said Rolf Kuropka,
Celanese sales director for EMEA.
Celanese Emulsions is pleased to wel-
come Algol Chemicals into its distribu-
tion network, as they are a good fit with
our philosophy of strong customer ori-
entation and technical support.
Algol Chemicals plans to open a coat-
ings laboratory in the Moscow area, to
provide formulation and application
development assistance for local paint
manufacturers. The lab will focus on the
Mowilith brand of dispersions for use in
waterborne paints, which are gaining
favor in Russia for their reduced emis-
sions and costs versus solventborne
alternatives. CW

BASF has launched a number of
new pigments for automotive coatings.
Paliocrom Brilliant Gold is the newest ef-
fect pigment in the Paliocrom Brilliant
product family. Due to its high chroma
and lightness, Paliocrom Brilliant Gold en-
ables designers to create eye-catching ef-
fects, according to the company. Paliocrom
Brilliant Golds performance makes it spe-
cially recommended for use in high-quality
automotive fnishes, industrial paints and
coatings for computers, communications
devices and consumer goods.
Lumina Royal Blue is a new intense red-
shade blue interference pigment, which al-
lows reduced amounts of pigment in
standard effect shades, thereby improving
the physical properties of the coating with-
out sacrifcing the overall interference effect.
Lumina Royal Blue is the frst high-chro-
maticity effect pigment being launched as
part of BASFs extension to the Lumina ef-
fect pigment portfolio. This new effect pig-
ment offers the highest color strength,
brightness, brilliancy and chromaticity of
any blue pigment currently available, the
company said.
Heliogen Blue L 6600 F is the latest de-
velopment in blue Heliogen pigments. He-
liogen Blue L 6600 F is a Pigment Blue 15:6
copper phthalocyanine blue pigment with
enhanced coloristic performance and excel-
lent secondary properties. Its color strength
leads to improved economy in application
in that less pigment is needed, which leads
to higher cost effectiveness. The pigment is
a member of the neutral fop blue series.
The neutral color fop allows styling trends
with limited color shift when viewed from
different angels.
Evonik launches Aerodisp WR
8520 waterborne dispersion
Evonik Industries has launched Aerodisp
WR 8520 waterborne dispersion based
on hydrophobic, or water-repellent, sil-
ica. Coatings based on this dispersion
can be formulated for improved corro-
sion resistance. Aerodisp WR 8520 im-
proves rheology control and anti-settling
behavior and pigment stabilization in
coatings, according to the company.
Aerodisp WR 8520 dispersions allow
dust-free handling of Aerosil silica pow-
der in liquid media. They are ready to use
and easy to handle.
Union Process develops
cryogenic grinding system
Union Process has developed a system for
controlling the fow of liquid nitrogen into
the grinding chamber for customers per-
forming cryogenic grinding. The engi-
neered system includes a probe inside the
grinding chamber that monitors the tem-
perature, and at the same time, regulates
the fow of liquid nitrogen into the mill to
maintain the desired temperature. Raising
and lowering the temperature is accom-
plished by adjusting the dial up or down.
The device is then able to change the rate
of fow of liquid nitrogen into the cham-
ber to achieve this goal. The system was
designed for use with Union Process 01-
HD and 1-S Laboratory attritors, how-
ever, the system can also be adapted for
use with production-sized mills.
Falcon Technologies launches
ColourFal Zero VOC-free
universal colorants
Falcon Technologies Inc. has launched
ColourFal Zero VOC-free universal col-
orants. Designed for in-store point-of-sale
(POS) volumetric color dispensing ma-
chines and volumetric in-plant tinting,
ColourFal Zero is VOC-free, alkylphenol
ethoxylate-free (APE/APEO), low odor
and contains no free-formaldehyde or
formaldehyde donors. With ColourFal
Zero, sustainability is built into the col-
orant design through the use of raw mate-
rials from renewable resources. Using a
patented technology called SmartTint, this
chemistry optimizes fow and eliminates
dry out, preventing dripping and blockage
of the nozzle in POS dispensing machines,
according to the company. As a result,

ual and automatic tintometric dispensing
machines. Developed for the global mar-
ket ColourFal Zero colorants are univer-
sal and are compatible with both
water borne and solventborne architec-
tural, decorative paints.

cellent water resistance and water beading
when used in coatings, stains and sealants,
according to the company. NatureShield 30
is an emulsion of tung oil that provides a
tough, highly water-resistant fnish that does
not darken noticeably. It produces water
beading and hold out in exterior wood stains
and sealants, and is also used because of its
light golden tint. When used in coatings for
stone surfaces, it provides durability and a
desirable wet look when dry. NatureShield
31 is an anionic emulsion of natural oils and
waxes that provides water resistance and
water beading in topical wood coatings. It
helps prevent wood from swelling in the
presence of water, and is typically used in
wood stains and sealants. NatureShield 40

to provide water resistance inboth wood and
concrete coatings as well as moderate scratch
and mar resistance.
Keystone Aniline presents a
new non-VOC, small particle
size pigment dispersion line

agreement with the Cleveland Museum of Art in support
of the museums broad-based community and educa-
tional programs, as well as its special exhibitions.

This is an outstanding opportunity for AkzoNobel to sup-

color to the community in which we work and live, said Erik
Bouts, CEO, Akzo Nobel Paints LLC, the companys U.S.

Northeast Ohio community since 1875. And we are privileged
to partner with the world-renowned Cleveland Museum of
Art, one of our areas most prestigious cultural institutions, in
its efforts to provide greater access to the arts for community
residents and students.
Glidden paints are ideally suited to showcase a variety of
works of art, said Jeffrey Strean, director of design and archi-
tecture for the museum. We will use the wide-ranging and vi-
brant Glidden color palette to complement the presentations in
our exhibitions and enhance the experience for our visitors. CW
