Most accurate scientific description for a paint is a liquid composition which consists of color pigments and is applied on a substrate in a thin layer with the primary purpose of protecting, coloring, decorating and providing a texture to an object. Paints are available in a number of colors and in different types and usually is in the liquid form. A paint basically consists of pigment, Binder (resin), solvent and additives.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pigments\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Pigments<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pigments are small solid particles which enhance the appearance and increase the durability of a paint. They basically<span id=\"0_phrase\">\u00a0come under<\/span>\u00a0two types, Prime Pigments, and Extender Pigments.<br \/>\nTitanium Dioxide (white), Chrome Green Oxide, Red Iron Oxides are typical prime pigments which provide whiteness and color and have hiding properties. Titanium Dioxide is a popular Prime Pigment. Though it is costly, its characteristic of hiding and providing whiteness to dry as well as wet paint makes it the most operational prime pigment.<br \/>\nExtender Prime Pigments gives extra thickness to the paint. Though these pigments only contribute to the dry paint they are necessary to control the glossiness of the paint.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Binders\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Binders<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Paint binder is a major ingredient which provides the binding effect which holds the paint pigments together and is responsible for a paint coating\/ layer on the surface after drying. A binder provides the paint with adhesion ability, resistance against scrubbing, fading, and washability. Binder includes a Natural or a synthetic resin. Water based paints use acrylic paints which most commonly consist of linseed oil. These paints provide great adhesion and give a superior finish. Solvent Based resins are normally used in enamel paints.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solvent\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Solvent<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Solvents act as a carrier for the pigment and the binder, whether solid or liquid, to create a paint coating. The solvents may be organic like mineral turps or inorganic like water. In oil based alkyd paint the solvent is typically a paint thinner while in latex paint it is typically water. The paint performance depends upon the ability of a solvent to hold the solid particles together.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Additives\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Additives<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Additives increase the overall paint performance. \u00a0Though the additives <span id=\"1_phrase\"><span class=\"auxiliary\">are<\/span> <span class=\"verb\">added<\/span><\/span> in a small amount, they enhance the resistance ability of paint against mould, brushing, sagging, and scuffing to a greater extent.<br \/>\nAdditives include thickening agents, surfactants, biocides, co-solvents cyclists, emulsifier, UV stabilizers etc. Additives modify paint adhesion, flow properties and overall the finished appearance.<br \/>\nThese all four ingredients are necessary to form a top quality paint to perform perfect painting job.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">[otw_shortcode_button href=&#8221;https:\/\/aapkapainter.com\/painters-in-bangalore&#8221; size=&#8221;medium&#8221; bgcolor=&#8221;#e03f57&#8243; icon_position=&#8221;left&#8221; shape=&#8221;round&#8221;]Book Painting Service in Bangalore[\/otw_shortcode_button]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paints are more than just a substance which color your walls.
