The promotion and application of waterborne wood coatings in China has been developed for nearly 20 years since 1996. During this period, the national government, China Coatings Industry Association, local coating associations, colleges and universities, and scientific research institutions continued to promote the research and development and application of water-based wood coatings, but the response of the Chinese furniture market to water-based wood coatings showed a loud thunder and little rain. The embarrassing situation. Why is the safe and environmentally friendly water-based wood coatings in the promotion and application, did not get the positive response of wood furniture, wooden door enterprises and consumers?

To this end, the China Coatings Industry Association is scheduled to hold the 8th China International Waterborne Wood Coatings Development Seminar in Beijing from May 27 to 30, 2014. At the same time, the 3rd Waterborne Wood Coatings Coating Solution Training Activities for Furniture Industry will be organized in 2014. The purpose of this seminar is to publicize and implement the relevant national environmental protection industrial policies. It will jointly promote the industrial transformation and upgrading of wooden furniture and wooden doors and other industries in conjunction with the China Furniture Association and China Wooden Door Association and the national smog control policy. Organize close communication and docking between water-based wood coating enterprises and wood furniture and door manufacturing enterprises, and actively promote the practical application and industrialization process of water-based wood coatings, encourage wooden furniture and wooden door enterprises to use environmentally friendly water-based wood coatings to help enterprises enjoy the support of national environmental protection policies and implement environmental protection policies. At the same time, the seminar will also focus on solving the problems of coating construction technology, drying problems, three wastes treatment and application of water-based wood coatings. Activities such as hanging board display of wooden furniture and wooden door enterprises, appraisal and award of outstanding units will be held.

It is reported that the China Coatings Industry Association has reached cooperation intentions with the Ministry of Environmental Protection, Beijing Municipal Government, Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau, Shenzhen Habitat Committee, China Furniture Association, and China Wooden Door Association. The seminar will be interpreted by the Ministry of Environmental Protection on VOC issues in the air pollution prevention and control plan, the Beijing Environmental Protection Bureau will elaborate on the relationship between atmospheric haze and VOC, Qumei Furniture will introduce the promotion status of water-based wood coatings in Beijing, the China Furniture Association will issue the 2013 annual report of China's furniture industry, and the China Wood and Wood Products Circulation Association will make the 2013 annual report of China's wooden door industry, the China Coatings Industry Association will introduce the 2014 Chinese water-based wood coatings standards and related policies, and the Shenzhen Municipal Human Settlements Environment Committee will introduce the VOC situation in Shenzhen coatings-related industries.

This seminar was strongly supported and sponsored by relevant water-based wood coatings enterprises and raw materials enterprises, dongguan Dabao Chemical Products Co., Ltd., Clivia Chemical (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., China Paint (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Opal Resin (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., DSM (China) Co., Ltd., Zhanchen Coating Group Co., Ltd., Gabriel Chemical Group Co., Ltd., Shanxi Jiayufeng Chemical Technology Co., Ltd., Hefei Ketian Chemical Co., Ltd. and Wanhua Chemical Group Co., Ltd. are the main co-organizers of the seminar; zibo Jiafeng Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. and Wuhan Shiquanxing Decorative Coating Co., Ltd. are co-organizers. Tianjin Yubei Coating Co., Ltd., Wuhan Antai Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., Foshan Shunde Badfu Industrial Co., Ltd., Shandong Aodemi Polymer Materials Co., Ltd. and Dow Chemical Coating Materials Business Department provide support.

Waterborne wood coatings is the future development direction of the wood coatings market, which has reached a consensus in wood coatings and wood furniture, wooden door enterprises. In recent years, China's air, water and land pollution has increased, making the government and the public have a strong demand for environmental protection. Time, place, people and, these make water-based wood coatings ushered in a great opportunity for development. This seminar invited Professor Tu Weiping from the School of Chemical Engineering and Energy of South China University of Technology to explain the application research and progress of waterborne polyurethane. The School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of Anhui University introduced the application and research of nanotechnology in the field of waterborne wood coatings. Beijing University of Chemical Technology will elaborate on the research and discussion of the environmental protection coating process of wood coatings and the overall solution, in addition, enterprises such as Wanhua Chemical Group Co., Ltd., Dongguan Dabao Chemical Products Co., Ltd. and DSM (China) Co., Ltd. gave wonderful special speeches from the perspectives of wood coating raw material research and development and practical application of coatings.

At the same time, the seminar will also organize Dongguan Dabao, Clivia Chemical, Chinese Paint, Opal Di Resin, DSM, Zhanchen, Gabriel, Jiayufeng, Ketian Chemical, Wanhua Chemical, Zibo Jiafeng, Shiquanxing, Yubei Paint, Antai Chemical, Bardefu, Odemi Polymer Materials, Tao's Chemical and other wooden furniture and wooden door enterprises to have on-site exchanges, and at the same time organize representatives to visit furniture and wooden door enterprises.

From the investigation of wooden furniture enterprises and wooden door enterprises in the early stage of the meeting, we found that furniture enterprises have three requirements for the environmental protection upgrading of wood coatings. First, the cost of water-based wood coatings cannot be significantly higher than that of solvent-based wood coatings. Second, water-based wood coatings cannot be reduced in terms of hardness, gloss and other performance indicators. Third, the technological requirements of water-based wood coatings cannot be changed too much, should be in line with the current production status and process habits of wooden furniture and wooden door enterprises.
