Coatings and adhesives
The research focus of the scope is on the synthesis of functional
polymers for use in dye, coatings and adhesives. This field is of
utmost significance for Slovenian chemical industry, which creates a
substantial share of its revenue from the sale of these materials. The emphasis
will be on the enhancement of synthesis procedures and reduction
of organic solvents use during production, as well as on further
technological processes and final formulations and formulations of
water-based coatings for advanced applications.
Binders and adhesives
The main innovation goal in this field is to take a
world-leading position in production of advanced binders and adhesives-
innovative products that fall into a higher price and quality range, and thus
strengthen our position in the demanding global market. Successfully completed research will
enable the use and distribution of new products on a global scale, in
compliance with European goals and environmental politics.

group:
-
acrylic
resins in organic solvents solution with low volatile organic compounds
content,
-
special
copolymer acrylate binders,
-
