Fujitsu laboratories develops industry's first bio-derived, water-based paint

Fujitsu Laboratories, in an industry first, today announced the development of a bio-derived, water-based paint that can be used to paint the plastic chassis of servers, PCs, and other ICT equipment. The newly developed bio-derived, water-based paint uses an emulsion of polylactic acid resin, derived from plants. Using reactive isocyanate promotes hardening, while applying heat promotes bonding among the polylactic acid particles. Both reactions result in good film-forming performance even at lo
