Existing European legislation to reduce volatile organic compound(VOC) emissions is briefly reviewed and the political and technical reasons why further VOC reductions will be requested in the future are examined. The new European legislation relating to the reduction of VOC in decorative paints is discussed in detail and its consequences for coating manufacturers and their customers are considered. 

P.R.255 is recommended for high grade lead-free industrial finishes, especially automotive O.E.M. finishes. The commercially available grade tends to flocculate in many formulations. Additives to improve the fastness to flocculation are available on the market. The rheological behavior of finishes is characterized by an distinct thixotropy. This can cause problems at the production of mill pastes. P.R.255 is also of interest for the use in tinting systems for decorative paints. 

I I heology is an integral part of life, from decorative paint and movement of volcanic lava to the flow of blood in our veins. This book describes, without the use of complex mathematics, how atoms and molecules interact to control the handling properties of materials ranging from simple ionic crystals through polymers to colloidal dispersions. 

Decoration painting, vacuum metallization by vapour deposition, sputtering, plating, dichroic coating give good results.

Innovation drivers Besides the typical motivations in an ethical market , the competition with water-based synthetic varnishes (which in Germany featnre the Bine Angef label) also spurs on innovation. In addition, the annonnce-ment of an EU directive has also contribnted to limiting the solvent content of decorative paints (Decopaint Directive 2004/42/EC). 

Paints. Ultramarine pigments are used in decorative paints, stoving finishes, transparent lacquers, industrial paints, and powder coatings. They are not recommended for colored, air-drying paints for outdoor use in urban atmospheres. 

In 1988 CdF Chimie, later known as ORKEM, took over full ownership of AVI, a profitable company specializing in decorative paints. Another subsidiary of ORKEM was Lorilleux, an ink manufacturer merged in early 1988 with Coates Brothers to become the third largest group in its field after Dainippon Ink Company (DIC) of Japan and Germany s BASF.

The most widely used method of application in heavy industrial projects is airless spraying. This utilises high pressure, the liquid paint being ejected through a fine specially designed nozzle which causes the paint stream to break up into fine droplets in the form of a fan. This rapid method of paint deposition also allows application of high dry-film thickness with each coat, 150 /an being not unusual in this respect. A coat of "decorative paint applied by brush would probably yield a thickness of 30-40 fim.

Alkyd paints are used for protection and decoration in virtually all sectors including coatings in the steel, sheet, and metal processing sector, house and decorative paints, do-it-yourself paints, wood varnishes, wood protection agents, and automotive finishes. Alkyd resins are extremely important for corrosion protection coatings. 

A large number of organic and inorganic materials which exhibit photochromism have been known for many years. Such materials have been applied in many areas of technology to use them as dosimeter materials, light control filters, recording films in photography and decorative paints.
