[Coating knowledge] Architectural paint formula and functional characteristics

In home renovation, the heads of households will hope that the building materials will have functions such as decoration, protection and improvement of habitability when they choose suitable wall decoration materials. Here's a small series for everyone to introduce the building paint it.

What is architectural paint?

Architectural coatings are an important category of coatings. Coatings are an industrial material that can be bonded to the surface of an object, which is located on the surface of the object, forms a coating film, and protects and decorates objects. The architectural paint is a kind of construction purpose material that can be used for building, which can not only bring beautiful effect to the building but also can effectively protect the building. It can be divided into two types through different protection functions. The first one is exterior wall architectural paint, and the other is interior wall architectural paint.

Architectural coating formula

According to the main chemical composition of film-forming substances, we can classify architectural coatings into three categories: organic architectural coatings, inorganic architectural coatings, and inorganic and organic composite architectural coatings. Organic architectural coatings are divided into three categories: solvent-based coatings, water-soluble coatings, and latex coatings. Each of these three categories has its own characteristics, and different situations have different uses. Inorganic coatings have superior cost performance and are the preferred architectural coatings for many construction projects. Inorganic and organic composite architectural coatings are a kind of widely applicable coating, and its application scope is even broader.

In the formulation of architectural paints, there is a very important substance that is paint additives. It can effectively improve and increase some of the functions of the paint so that the effect of the paint can be exerted to the best effect. Although its blending amount is relatively small, it only accounts for several to several ten thousandths of the total amount of paint, but its role is quite amazing. There are several types of commonly used architectural coating additives. The first category is hardeners, catalysts, and desiccants. The second category is anti-corrosion, anti-mildew and flame retardant. This can effectively increase the life of the paint and make the building look more durable. The third category is whitening agents and plasticizers for enhancing appearance effects.

Classification of architectural coatings

1. Classified according to the use of parts on the building

Can be divided into interior wall paint, exterior wall paint, floor coating, roof coating and so on.

2. Classification by base material

Architectural coatings can be divided into organic coatings, few coatings, and organic-inorganic composite coatings. Organic coatings can be divided into solvent-based, water-emulsified, and water-soluble organic coatings depending on the solvent used. Inorganic architectural coatings are mainly inorganic polymer coatings, but also include traditional cement, lime, etc., but the latter has rarely been used.

There are two kinds of organic-inorganic composite coatings, one is the way that organic materials and inorganic materials are mixed together by physical mixing, and the other is that organic and inorganic materials are connected by chemical reaction. Branches or blocks, the two composite use paint.

3. According to the use of functional classification

Can be divided into decorative coatings and special functional coatings (such as fire-retardant coatings, anti-mildew coatings, waterproof coatings, elastic coatings, etc.).

4. According to the coating thickness and texture (shape) classification

Can be divided into smooth and smooth surface coating; Sand-like coating with sand-like decoration effect on the surface; Multi-layer coating (including ring-shaped, spot-shaped, orange peel, napped, etc.) .

Functional features of architectural coatings

First, architectural coatings have decorative functions, protection functions, and improvement of habitability. The proportion of various functions varies according to the purpose of use.

Second, the decoration function is a function that enhances its appearance value through the beautification of the building. It mainly includes the concept design of the plane color, pattern and gloss, and the concept design of the three-dimensional pattern. However, it must be combined with the shape of the building itself and the size and shape of the substrate itself in order to make full use of it.

Third, the protection function refers to the function of protecting buildings from the influence and destruction of the environment. Different types of protected objects also have different requirements for protection functions. For example, the difference between the indoor and outdoor painting requirements is very large. Some buildings have special requirements for anti-mildew, fire prevention, thermal insulation, corrosion resistance, and so on.

Fourth, the residential improvement function is mainly for indoor painting, it is to help improve the living environment features, such as sound insulation, sound-absorbing coating effect and classification, anti-condensation and so on.

Summary: The above is the content of the functional features of architectural coatings and architectural coatings introduced by Xiao Bian for everyone. I hope that we can effectively help everyone. For more information, please pay attention to this website.
