  2. Copper naphthenate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_naphthenate

    Copper naphthenate is most widely used in wood preservation and for protecting other cellulosic materials such as textiles and cordage from damage by decay fungi and insects. Other metal naphthenates are used as paint driers, rubber adhesion promoters, lubricant additives, and catalysts where oil solubility is required.

  3. Waterborne resins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterborne_resins

    Most coatings have four basic components. These are the resin, solvent, pigment and additive systems [5] but the resin or binder is the key ingredient. Continuing environmental legislation in many countries along with geopolitics such as oil production are ensuring that chemists are increasingly turning to waterborne technology for paint/coatings and since resins or binders are the most ...

  4. Surfactants in paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surfactants_in_paint

    The solvent also modifies the curing rate and viscosity of the paint in its liquid state. There are two types of paint: solvent-borne and water-borne paints. Solvent-borne paints use organic solvents as the primary vehicle carrying the solid components in a paint formulation, whereas water-borne paints use water as the continuous medium.

  5. Liquitex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquitex

    Liquitex is a US company that supplies art materials, focusing exclusively on the development, manufacture and distribution of acrylic paints.Founded by Henry Levison as "Permanent Pigments" in 1955, the company created the first water-based acrylic gesso.

  6. Styrene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Styrene

    Styrene is an organic compound with the chemical formula C 6 H 5 CH=CH 2. Its structure consists of a vinyl group as substituent on benzene. Styrene is a colorless, oily liquid, although aged samples can appear yellowish. The compound evaporates easily and has a sweet smell, although high concentrations have a less pleasant odor.

  7. α-Methylstyrene - Wikipedia

    Colorless liquid Density: 0.91 g/cm 3: Melting point: −24 °C (−11 °F; 249 K) Boiling point: 165 to 169 °C (329 to 336 °F; 438 to 442 K) Solubility in water.

  8. Acrylonitrile styrene acrylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylonitrile_styrene_acrylate

    ASA can be made by either a reaction process of all three monomers (styrene, acrylonitrile, acrylic ester) or a graft process, although the graft process is the typical method. A grafted acrylic ester elastomer is introduced during the copolymerization of styrene and acrylonitrile. The elastomer is introduced as a powder. [11]

  9. Vinyl ester resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_ester_resin

    Vinyl ester resin, or often just vinyl ester, is a resin produced by the esterification of an epoxy resin with acrylic or methacrylic acids. [1] The "vinyl" groups refer to these ester substituents, which are prone to polymerize and thus an inhibitor is usually added.
