Changchun, Jilin – Automotive manufacturer FAW Group signed contract in January 2014 with two Chinese coating makers, Tianjin Colouroad Coatings and Chemicals and Feiyang Novel Materials, to jointly develop energy-saving auto coatings including polyurea products.
State-owned FAW Group claims to be the market leader in China’s vehicle manufacturing sector, with 120,000 employees and a sales volume of over two million units/year.
Tianjin Colouroad has recently developed a new polyurea coating that it claims can raise the percentage of solids content in operating fluids from 55% to 75% and reduce the roasting temperature from 140℃ to 80℃.
This new coating material is scheduled to be launched within the year according to the company.
