Description:
The report documents an international conference that provided a forum for the exchange of technical information on coating technologies. It focused on improved and emerging technologies that result in fewer volatile organic compound (VOC) and toxic air emissions that those from traditional coatings. EPA's National Risk Management Research Laboratory and Research Triangle Institute cosponsored the conference, entitled "Low- and No-VOC Coating Technologies: 2nd Biennial International Conference." It was held on March 13-15, 1995, in Durham, NC. Approximately 175 people participated. Plenary presentations provided perspectives from the coatings industry and from federal and state government representatives. Technical papers described new coating technologies, coating application equipment, chemical agents for coatings removal, and issues associated with measuring the VOC content of coatings. The technical papers presented at the conference focused on regulations, radiation-curable coatings, life cycle analysis of coatings, surface preparation, powder coatings, automotive applications, wood furniture technologies, military applications, architectural and industrial maintenance coatings, and other low- and no-VOC coating technologies.
