Alkyd resins paint formulation using

Vinyl resins ie, copolymers of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate which contain hydroxyl groups from the partial hydrolysis of vinyl acetate and/or carboxyl groups, eg, from copolymerized maleic anhydride, may be formulated with alkyd resins to improve their appHcation properties and adhesion. The blends are primarily used in making marine top-coat paints. 

Paint Driers and Polymer Additives. Paints based on alkyd resins (qv) dry by the oxidation and cross-linking of unsaturated side chains. Metal catalysts are included in paint formulations to promote this drying. Cerium carboxylates, eg, the naphthenate, are used as through driers, ie, to promote drying in the body of the paint film rather than at the film s surface (44). 

Eor water-based alkyd paints, greater (0.2% cobalt on a resin basis) concentrations of drier are required than for other systems because the reaction of the drier with water decreases the activity of the catalyst. The cobalt content of oil-based paint formulations is usually 0.01—0.05% cobalt. Although the concentration of cobalt in the formulations is small, the large volume of paints, inks, and varnishes constitute a significant use for cobalt chemicals. 

There are over 400 different commercial alkyd resin formulations based on phthalic anhydride used in the coatings business. Alkyd resins for paints are made by reacting phthalic anhydride with a poly-alcohol (usually from naturally occurring sources rather than synthetic) that contains unreacted double bonds. The paint dries by the resin crosslinking through reaction of the double bonds under the influence of oxygen in the air. 

One coat of primer, formula 84-47, followed by an experimental red deck paint similar to that specified in specification (7), formula 23, except that sufficient chlorinated paraffin was substituted for the alkyd resin solid to yield a chlorine content of 35 > in the nonvolatile vehicle without altering the pigment volume. This paint was formulated by the Paint Research Section it has not been accepted for naval use. 

Solvents used for paint removal are able to dissolve or considerably swell physically drying binders (e.g., vinyl chloride copolymers, cellulose nitrate, polyacrylates) and chemically cross-linked coatings (e.g., oil-based paints, dried alkyd resins, cross-linked polyester-melamine resins, cross-linked epoxy and isocyanate coatings) [14.237]. A combination of dichloromethane with low-boiling ketones or esters is particularly suitable. Small amounts of high-boiling solvents with a low volatility (e.g., tetrahydronaphthalene, solvent naphtha, methyl benzyl alcohol, or benzyl alcohol) are added to these mixtures to retard evaporation and increase the solvency. Modern paint removers do not contain chlorinated hydrocarbons, they are formulated on the basis of high boilers (e.g., dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, propylene carbonate, and yV-methylpyrrolidone) in combination with alcohols and aromatics, or consist of aqueous, frequently alkaline or acidic systems. 

Commercial electropainting only dates from the early 1960s and the first processes to be introduced used anodic deposition. Some typical paint formulations would contain (i) polycarboxylic acids based on acrylic acid as monomer solubilized by an organic amine, (ii) alkyds, i.e. branched polyesters based on naturally occurring long-chain carboxylic acids and polyalcohols, e.g. glycerol, and (iii) epoxy resins based on phenols, e.g. 

Anti-corrosive pigments may be used in etch primer formulations (see above), or as components of the closely related anti-corrosive paints which are based on alkyd resins or other organic binders. Among the compounds used for the latter are [22]... 

In commercial use since 1927 [18], alkyd resins are among the most widely used anticorrosion coatings. They are one-component air-curing paints and, therefore, are fairly easy to use. Alkyds are relatively inexpensive. Alkyds can be formulated into both solvent-borne and waterborne coatings.
