The science of 3D printing isn’t just a science, it’s an art. Three-dimensional printer filament is rife for experimentation; developing new materials for these innovative printing methodologies has become a competitive sector within the chemicals market.

By some estimates, the world industrial coatings market will be worth in excess of $120 billion within the next five years. Coatings – resins, metals, composites, and other synthetic coverings – are advancing at a rapid clip thanks to demand from dozens of sectors including automotive, protective, aerospace, and even energy.

Noah Technologies works with manufacturers to supply high-purity industrial chemicals for use in coatings all over the U.S.A. Here are three advancements in the coatings space our chemists are keeping a close eye on.

When you think of expensive elements, you probably think of gold. While gold (Au) is prized for its subjective value, it’s actually not one of the absolute most valuable elements in the world! Surprisingly, neither is silver, copper, or even platinum.

So, which elements are the most valuable, and why? Let’s meet at the most expensive elements on earth.

The discipline of materials science has advanced more over the past few decades than it has throughout the rest of history combined. The study of ceramics, polymers, metals, composites, and all materials has endless applications in our daily lives. Manufactured materials are the backbone of every product we use, each car we drive, and even the medicine we rely on.

At Noah Technologies, we keep a close eye on the latest developments in materials science as they relate to high-purity chemicals. Here are a few interesting advancements we’re excited to watch unfold.

Innovation in the materials science sector is anything but slow. In fact, it’s arguably one of the most exciting areas of modern chemistry, responsible for much of the technological advancement and textile development we know today.
