Mapping the route from wet to dry : New test methods reveal details of waterborne nanocomposite drying

• An EC framework project known as NAPOLEON has been formed to investigate nanocomposites. The project has developed several new techniques to study drying of waterborne coatings, which is especially critical for nanocomposites. Ways to monitor stresses during drying, particle movements, changes in water concentration with depth, film structure and local variations in surfactant concentration are described.
