When solvent-based paints cure, harmful VOC-releasing solvents evaporate into the atmosphere, with a negative, toxic impact on the environment.
Hexion is leading the way, with technologies that can help reduce emissions from paints and coatings as they cure.
We are a global leader in waterborne epoxy systems for metal and concrete coatings. Our waterborne epoxy systems maintain very low VOCs without sacrificing performance. Additionally, our Versatic™ Acid derivatives are key building blocks that can help make the manufacturing of water-based paints and coatings easier and cost effective.
Of course, a project as big as clearing the air requires partnership. And Hexion is proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with coatings manufacturers around the world, developing solutions built on shared vision and core values.
For decades, Hexion chemists have been helping customers formulate high-performance waterborne coatings with significantly lower solvent content.
