Leveling test procedure ASTM D4062. What it is and how to use it?
Water-soluble paints based on winyl-acrylic, styrene-acrylic or pure acrylic emulsions contain thickeners in their formulations ensuring appropriate rheological properties at low, medium and high shear rates. Setting the ideal viscosity to ensure no sagging, Stormer-viscosity and ICI-viscosity requires a balancing of different rheological additives and dosages. Often, with selected rheological properties allowing for good application,…
Formulating of latex paints using the relationship between PVC and CPVC
The formulation of latex paints, as well as paints in general, requires extensive knowledge of the basics of the raw material composition of paints, the raw material base and the amounts of use of individual raw materials.
