Differentiated Performance and Long-Life Architectural Coatings

Sponsored By Arkema, Inc.

Presented By Ron Partridge

1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)

Building owners have come to rely on weatherable coatings to provide long-term protection to their buildings. With an increased focus on sustainability, performance, and durability, PVDF resin-based coatings can help architects and painting contractors exceed their clients’ design goals.

Learning Objectives:

Describe the ways PVDF resin-based coatings, both water based and solvent based, provide a consistent, pristine appearance while achieving durability goals over a variety of substrates as demonstrated in applicable case studies
Discuss why some coatings fail and the important considerations when selecting a coating system for an application, including weathering performance, longevity, and application method
Discuss the standards of performance for architectural coatings and recognize why PVDF coating technology outperforms other coating technologies
Explain how water-based PVDF coatings, by their chemistry and performance, can help design professionals and building owners achieve their sustainability goals.

High-Performance Coatings and Exterior Restorations

Sponsored By APV Engineered Coatings

1 AIA HSW/LU CE Hour(s)

High-performance coatings are a necessity when it comes to protecting building exteriors and restoring them after harsh weathering and UV degradation; the right coatings prolong a building exterior’s life span and divert materials from landfills.

Learning Objectives:

Discuss the different categories of high-performance coatings and their role in protecting a building’s exterior and improving its appearance
Compare various types of high-performance coatings, focusing on PVDF resins and the attributes and sustainability benefits associated with water-based formulations
Examine the various uses of PVDF-based coating systems and their contributions to sustainability while achieving aesthetic objectives, and
Summarize the application parameters that ensure the optimal performance of a coating system as well as applicator and user safety and well-being.
