C9 petroleum resins are thermo-polymerized resins made from nine carbon aromatic monomers. Used to for improving paints and inks as well as provide excellent adhesion to rubber surfaces, C9 resins are non-polar and suitable for natural rubber, most olefins, and … Read More
Polygloss 90 is an ultra –fine particle size, high brightness Kaolin, designed to provide ease of disperation and improved gloss in both aqueous and solvent–borne coating and inks. Polygloss 90 specialty Kaolin contributes to improved opacity through efficient TiO2 spacing. … Read More
Introduction: Cuprous Oxide by NORDOX, has emerged as an active valuable ingredient in antifouling paint industry due to its unique properties. Cuprous Oxide is ideal Anti Fouling pigment for ship bottom paints. We also would like to highlight that our … Read More
Zinc dust is best product in it’s class for using in protective paints. It gives lasting protection to metallic substrates. It can be offered as one pack or two pack system primers and paints. The Science Behind Zinc Dust’s … Read More
What is Titanium dioxide Titanium dioxide is a synthetic white pigment with high hiding power, nontoxic, permanent, and usable in all medium. Titanium dioxide pigment is a fine white powder. When used in paints, it provides for maximum whiteness and opacity. … Read More
What are Inorganic Pigments in Paints? Inorganic pigments are crystals of metal compounds (often oxides). Transition metals have their bonding electrons in the d orbitals – when the metal is bonded to groups of atoms. This can cause the d … Read More
There is a confusion between Zinc Powder and Zinc Dust. Though both of them have similar origins, their functions are different. This is primarily due to the difference between their particle size. Paint manufacturers sometimes interchange the names of these … Read More
Synthetic red iron oxide have become increasingly important due to their pure hue, consistent properties, and tinting strength. Single-component forms are mainly produced with red, yellow, orange and black colours. Their composition corresponds to that of minerals hematite, goethite, lepidocrocite, and magnetite. Brown … Read More
Skinning of paint is the biggest nuisance in protective coatings. Skinning causes the avoidable waste of a costly coating material. The loss of paint due to skinning is estimated to be as much as 3 to 5%. This not only worries … Read More
Zinc phosphate (Zn3(PO4)2) is an inorganic chemical compound used as a corrosion resistant coating on metal surfaces either as part of an electroplating process or applied as a primer pigment (see also red lead). It has largely displaced toxic materials based on lead or chromium, and by 2006 it had become the most commonly … Read More
