Chinese container manufacturers focus on water-based anticorrosive coatings

At present, more than 85% of the world's containers are produced in China

Since 2017, China has implemented strict environmental regulations to reduce volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions.

In this transition, coating suppliers are vigorously developing water-based container coatings, while maintaining or even improving coating performance, while ensuring maximum environmental benefits, helping container manufacturers achieve the goal of reducing emissions and achieving environmental development

Driven by this market demand, Evonik, through local research and development, deeply explored the needs of downstream coating customers and container customers, and launched a new water-based epoxy curing agent Anquamine® 469 specially developed for container coatings

Anquamine® 469 is the latest product in Evonik's high-performance water-based curing agent series.

This innovative product was developed by the cross-functional team of Evonik Shanghai Innovation Park

Zhen Qihong, vice president of Evonik’s crosslinking agent business line in Asia Pacific, said: “We are committed to developing environmentally friendly products to support the long-term sustainable development of the Chinese coatings industry

Anquamine® 469 water-based epoxy curing agent can also be applied to various industrial, transportation, and construction machinery coatings.
