Decorative coating

Since decorative coatings, which are often also called architectural coatings, represent the biggest application field for coatings, the most important segments are briefly discussed. [Pg.242]

Interior paints can be described as coating materials that are not exposed to weather factors or UV-radiation. They are predominantly matt paints used to coat surfaces, such as plaster. [Pg.242]

Exterior decorative coatings are used to provide aesthetic and protective features to exterior walls of buildings or other objects, such as fences, decks or roofs, that are mostly made from mineral substrates or wood. The coating has to protect the surface against weathering or UV-radiation and should keep a pleasant appearance over a long time. The most important [Pg.243]

If coated on wood, architectiual paints and thus the binder have to provide sufficient elasticity to cope with enormous changes of dimensions due to variation in temperatiue and moistiue without cracking. [Pg.243]

Elastomeric coatings as well as emulsion gloss paints discussed below are smaller but nevertheless important segments of decorative paints. They are regarded to be high quality systems and impose special challenges to the binder. [Pg.244]

Decorative paints, so called because they form a decorative coating inside and outside buildings, represent over 50% of coatings consumption in both the USA and Europe. This market can be further divided into trade and retail sectors. The former supplies the professional painter while the latter serves the retail outlets. One of the most noticeable developments in the retail sector in recent years has been the increase in paint sales from the large DIY stores at the expense of the smaller suppliers. Both retail and trade sectors can be further divided into waterborne emulsion paints , for walls, ceilings, etc., and solventborne gloss, primer, varnish, etc. [Pg.160]

This market has not been characterised by complex technology hence many paint producers exist. There are, however, several major companies who share approximately 40% of the decorative market. Resins for paint manufacture, both waterborne and solventborne, are produced by independent manufacturers who sell them to the paint producers, many of whom possess no (or limited) resin production facilities. The European decorative paint market is 2.7 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa), split 65% trade and 35% retail, while the US market is slightly smaller, at 2.5 Mtpa. [Pg.160]

Aqueous emulsions of alkyd resins are being developed for a new generation of decorative paints which contain only low levels of solvent, but these have yet to gain widespread approval in the market, especially in terms of ease of use and final appearance. [Pg.160]

Estimates of European and US solvent use (ktpa) in decorative coatings are shown in Table 8.2. [Pg.160]

The main application technique in the decorative area is still by hand (brush). Hence, future trends continue to reflect attention on worker exposure and environmental issues. This is already seen in the move to low aromatic content white spirits and isoparaffin solvents in conventional systems. High solids and waterborne technologies are being developed and both possess certain advantages and disadvantages, mainly relating to appearance and ease of use. Water-based systems bring, in principle, increased potential for water pollution, as consumers continue to rinse their brushes and paint rollers under the tap and transfer the water-soluble components such as amines and biocides to the aqueous environment. The consequence of diffuse water emissions of this type is still under debate. [Pg.160]


Traditional appHcations for latices are adhesives, binders for fibers and particulate matter, protective and decorative coatings (qv), dipped goods, foam, paper coatings, backings for carpet and upholstery, modifiers for bitumens and concrete, and thread and textile modifiers. More recent appHcations include biomedical appHcations as protein immobilizers, visual detectors in immunoassays (qv), as release agents, in electronic appHcations as photoresists for circuit boards, in batteries (qv), conductive paint, copy machines, and as key components in molecular electronic devices. [Pg.23]

Includes mica used for molded electrical insulation, roofing, mbber, textile and decoration coatings, welding rods, and miscellaneous. [Pg.292]

Both functional and decorative coatings can be appHed to paper from latices. The aqueous dispersions can be used on conventional paper converting machinery which usually cannot handle hot melts and solvent coatings. The lack of fire hazard because of absence of solvents is an added advantage of the latex system. [Pg.260]

Cellulose acetate butyrates with high butyryl content and low viscosity are soluble in inexpensive lacquer solvents. They are widely used in lacquers for protective and decorative coatings appHed to automobiles and wood furniture. [Pg.260]

The volume of thermosetting powders sold exceeds that of thermoplastics by a wide margin. Thermoplastic resins are almost synonymous with fluidized-bed appHed thick-film functional coatings whereas thermosetting powders are used almost exclusively in electrostatic spray processes and appHed as thin-film decorative coatings. [Pg.317]

Thermoset decorative coatings are by far the largest powder coatings market segment amounting to 48,500 t worth 279,000,000. However, in the ... [Pg.325]

Decorative coatings of nickel plus chromium are cathodic to steel or zinc alloy substrates and with these protective systems deliberate use may be made of discontinuities in the chromium topcoat where corrosion of the underlying nickel will occur. If the number of these discontinuities in the chromium layer is greatly increased the current density at each individual corrosion site is reduced, penetration of corrosion through the thickness of the nickel layer is thus slowed down and the period of protection of the substrate metal is prolonged. [Pg.450]

Toys, office equipment, sports equipment and shop furniture also provide large markets for decorative coatings of nickel or nickel plus chromium. [Pg.539]

Evaporation is used extensively for the deposition of aluminum and other low melting-point metals as well as hard coatings such as TiN for cutting tools, decorative coatings (jewelry), and for the metallization of paper and fibers. It is also a major coating... [Pg.492]

Reactive ion plating is similar to reactive sputtering and evaporation with applications in optical, wear, abrasion, lubrication, and decorative coatings. [Pg.495]

Chromium makes up just 0.012% of the Earth s crust, yet it is an important industrial metal. The main use of chromium is in metal alloys. Stainless steel, for example, contains as much as 20% chromium. Nichrome, a 60 40 alloy of nickel and chromium, is used to make heat-radiating wires in electrical devices such as toasters and hair dryers. Another important application of chromium metal is as a protective and decorative coating for the surface of metal objects, as described in Chapter 19. [Pg.1472]

Because of its beauty and rarity, gold bullion is still used as the international standard for money, accepted as such by all nations. It is also used in jewelry, in dentistry, and as a protective or decorative coating on the surface of other metals. Gold has even been used in space vehicles. Though men have fought and died for gold down through the centuries, the element has comparatively few uses. [Pg.58]
