COATINGS, ADHESIVES AND
SEALANTS IN AUTOMOTIVE............The
automotive industry is one of the largest and most challenging areas for coatings, adhesives and sealants. Coatings, the largest category, garners
over three quarters of
the total dollars and more than one-half of the poundage. Adhesives and sealants
split the balance. Constantly changing product design, in combination
with the automotive industry’s continuous striving for lighter, more
efficient, less polluting, and more technologically advanced
automobiles, creates an abundance of opportunities for coatings,
adhesives and sealants formulators, polymer manufacturers, and other raw
material suppliers as well.
