The MissionThis book explores how coatings contribute to global sustainability goals, going beyond performance optimisation to include life cycle assessment, emission categorisation, and the principles of circular economy. By linking chemical formulation, process engineering, and environmental responsibility, the book aims to redefine the role of coatings as active contributors to climate protection rather than passive materials of consumption.The AudienceAs a guide serves "Sustainability of Coatings" for formulation chemists, process engineers, R&D specialists, and decision-makers responsible for environmental strategies. Whether from academia or industry, readers will find both conceptual frameworks and practical methodologies for quantifying, comparing, and improving the ecological performance of coating systems from raw material selection to end-of-life considerations.The ValueOffering a holistic view of the coatings life cycle, the book bridges scientific knowledge and industrial practice. It empowers readers to apply life cycle analysis, understand emission scopes, and design coatings with lower carbon footprints while maintaining functional and aesthetic quality. Through detailed discussions on various coating types solvent-based, water-borne, powder, and radiation-curable it delivers actionable insights into how sustainability can align with efficiency and innovation.Teasertext:Sustainability is becoming a defining principle in coating technology. Sustainability of Coatings provides a clear and comprehensive overview of how ecological and carbon footprints shape the future of surface protection and design. From life cycle assessment and emission scopes to practical strategies for sustainable formulation and process optimization, this book connects environmental science with industrial application. A must-read for chemists, engineers, and decision-makers seeking to combine performance, efficiency, and climate responsibility in modern coating systems.
