Binder for wood coating systems

Alberdingk Boley has brought Alberdingk LignoCure to the coatings market.

The product is the company’s latest generation of binder for creating long term stability wood protection systems. LignoCure uses the long term durability of the natural material lignin, a substantial component of wood, to provide a polymeric stabilisation of the substrate. The life cycle of the entire coating system is thereby significantly extended, says the company.

The product offers improved adhesion of the coating to substrate on all types of wood through its optimised wetting characteristics. Thus, additional application areas are opened to wood. A major factor is the active conservation of resources realised by extended renovation intervals, says the company. The binder system offers added value as a preservation coating for windows and panelling.

Garden furniture and floorboards as well as all wood protection systems where the focus is on maximum service life of the substrate or coating are ideal application areas. Film formation through a low minimum film forming temperature (MFFT) guarantees good dispersion. The harmonised crosslinking properties of LignoCure also allow for optimum mixability with the corresponding top coat dispersions offered by ­Alberdingk Boley.
