Title: Innovations of John David Nordstrom
Introduction
John David Nordstrom is a notable inventor based in Huntington Woods, MI (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of coating compositions, holding a total of 12 patents. His work primarily focuses on developing low VOC (volatile organic compound) coatings that are both mar and etch resistant, particularly for automotive applications.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is for a high solids acid etch and mar resistant clear coating composition. This invention provides an etch and mar resistant low VOC clear coating composition that is most suitable for use as a top clear coat in multi-layered OEM or refinish automotive coatings. The composition includes polyisocyanate, polyester polyol, and melamine components, where more than half of the total composition solids consist of the polyester polyol and melamine components. The polyisocyanate component includes an aliphatic polyisocyanate, and the composition can be formulated as either a two-pack or one-pack coating composition.
Another significant patent involves silicon reactive oligomers and coating compositions made therefrom. This invention is directed towards low VOC curable coating compositions suitable for various mar and etch resistant coatings, including automotive coatings. The binder of this composition includes silicon/hydroxyl and cross-linking components. The silicon/hydroxyl component comprises one or more reactive oligomers with a linear or branched cycloaliphatic moiety and at least two functional groups, one being a silane or silicate group and the other a hydroxyl group. This innovative approach allows for a significant increase in the solids level of the composition while maintaining reduced viscosities.
