Advantages To Using Water Based Acrylic Polymers
There are many benefits to using high-performance resins and chemicals developed with water-based acrylic industrial polymers. Some primary benefits include that they are easy to work with, good for the environment and showcase a large variety of industrial applications including industrial coatings, printing inks, and high-gloss varnishes.Other Types of Acrylic PolymersHowever, you may wonder what the alternative to water-based acrylic polymers is. Well, you could use a solvent based product. So what does that mean? Well, fifty years ago, virtually all paint and the polymers behind it were solvent based. Sometimes referred to as “Oil-based” or “Alkyd” paints, solvent-based coatings […]

Polymer Chemistry: The Backbone Behind Gellner Industrial
Though our polymers appear in everyday applications, such as vinyl or in your favorite paints, the chemistry behind their creation is not so commonplace.Polymer chemistry is a part of chemistry that deals specifically with the chemical structures and characteristics behind polymers, especially in cases of synthetic polymers often called plastics or elastomers. Polymer chemistry is a smaller part of what is considered polymer science. Polymer physics and polymer engineering are two other manifestations of polymer related studies.An important part of understanding polymers is understanding how they are classified. Polymers are often divided into two different sub-groups. These groups are biopolymers […]
What Is A Polymer?
If you are interested in Gellner Industrial, you probably have a basic understanding of what a polymer is. However, if you don’t, we thought we’d give a little rundown on our biggest product- polymers. Though we specialize in acrylic polymers, the science behind our products is consistent with other types of more basic polymers.So what are polymers? Well, polymers are made up of a bunch of molecules that are strung together to form really long chains. Of course, sometimes, the molecules combine to form more complicated structures. However, what makes polymers so interesting is that how they act completely depends […]
The Many Applications Of Polymers
Polymers may sound like a very industry specific thing, and to some degree they are, but they are actually a pretty big part of a lot of industries you may indeed recognize. Polymer testing and consultancy for plastic has applications in such industries as aerospace, automotive, electronics, packaging and medical devices. Polymers are incredibly diverse elements that represent such fields of engineering from avionics through biomedical applications, drug delivery system, biosensor devices, tissue engineering, cosmetics etc. the application of polymers and their subsequent composites is still advancing and increasing quickly due to their ease regarding manufacturing. When considering a polymer application, […]
