   Low-VOC paint types include latex (water-based), recycled latex (water-based), acrylic, and milk paint. [1] [2] The labels of paint cans can be checked for the following information: To be considered low-VOC, the paint should contain <50 g/L of VOC. [citation needed] To be considered zero-VOC, the paint should contain <5 g/L of VOC. [citation ...

   There is solvent-based and water-based. Solvent-based acrylic paints are soluble in mineral spirits, and water-based acrylic paints are water-soluble. Acrylic paint differs from oil paint in both its quick drying time, and how the paint dries. Acrylic paint dries in as little as thirty minutes, and dries by the evaporation of the solvent or ...

5. Superhydrophobic coating - Wikipedia

   In industry, super-hydrophobic coatings are used in ultra-dry surface applications. The coating can be sprayed onto objects to make them waterproof. The spray is anti-corrosive and anti-icing; has cleaning capabilities; and can be used to protect circuits and grids. Superhydrophobic coatings have important applications in maritime industry ...

6. Primer (paint) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primer_(paint)

   Primer reduces the number of paint coats needed for good coverage and even color. A thin layer of paint may still be permeable to water. Water can permeate into the wood and cause warping, mildew, or dry rot. Primer improves the waterproofing of the finish. [4] Primers are not used as part of a wood stain treatment because they obscure the wood ...

9. Pitch (resin) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_(resin)

   The pitch shown in this University of Queensland pitch drop experiment has a viscosity approximately 100 billion times that of water. Naturally occurring asphalt/bitumen, a type of pitch, is a viscoelastic polymer. This means that even though it seems to be solid at room temperature and can be shattered with a hard impact, it is actually fluid ...
