How do waterborne coatings manufacturers apply diluents?

In the impression of many people, the diluter is to dilute the paint, in fact, not. When diluent is in construction, it is to have a lot of exquisite, do not want to consider to be primers to use only, still be face paint to use, what consider to differ manufacturer to produce even is dissimilar diluent. Since the diluent is in construction time, have so many matters needing attention, so the waterborne paint manufacturer that diluent how should use?

1. The thinner can dry quickly to make the paint gloss higher

Different season paint manufacturers will automatically supply different transpiration rate of scarcity. Many manufacturers will dry the diluent separation packaging label. This provides great adjustment space for site construction. If using quick dry thinners in summer, the luster of the paint will be higher than the slow dry thinners 20 °.

2. Thin material with strong solubility adds the gloss of paint

The effect of the thinner is simply to dilute the paint and reduce the viscosity. Make the paint to the required viscosity of the equipment and the best construction results. After the construction of the diluent will all transpiration to the atmosphere, it is difficult to recycle. This is also paint to constitute environmental pollution, and is the main reason that we change into water paint. So the lower the offer, the better in the case of a solicitation.

The process of dilution makes two appeals to the diluter:

A. The solubility of the thinner should not be too weak. If it is too weak, it will form A flocculation of the paint and will not dilute the paint. Needless to say, many people have encountered this type of work. Diluents are involved in the paint, the paint and the thinner are separated, the top layer of the clarified thinner, and the bottom paint shrinks into a ball. And no matter how you mix it, the paint is like a piece of bubblegum, sticky and never incorporated into the thinner.

B. the diluent cannot be too strong. Too strong diluent will constitute the paint in the pigment flocculation, pigment separated from the paint. This kind of phenomenon is more hidden, many time is not found.

3. The effect of diluent on the gloss of paint

Excessive diluent participation will reduce the luster, mainly because participate in the diluent too much, paint solid content drops, dry film becomes thin, forming low gloss.
