Ameron International

Pipeline & Gas Journal, June, 2005

Ameron International is the recipient of the 2005 Frost & Sullivan Technology Leadership Award in the U.S. protective coatings market. Ameron won the award for its record as an innovator and leading supplier of polysiloxane (PSX) technology. This patented technology, recognized as the newest generic class of high performance coatings, combines the performance of a polysiloxane with an organic resin.

Traditional coating types have inherent strengths and weaknesses. Through combination of siloxane chemistry with traditional coating resins, significant improvements are obtained for such features as long-term gloss retention, durability, chemical resistance and so forth. Besides coatings, Ameron has also developed a PSX composite pipe and PSX epoxy adhesives sold by Ameron's Fiberglass Pipe Division.
