  2. Volume solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_solid

    Here is the formula by which one can calculate the volume solid of paint, (Total sum by volume of each solid ingredient in paint x 100%)/ Total sum by volume of each ingredient in paint. A simple method that anyone can do to determine volume solids empirically is to apply paint to a steel surface with an application knife and measure the wet ...

  3. Paint sheen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_sheen

    The sheen [4] or gloss level of a paint is principally determined by the ratio of resinous, adhesive binder, which solidifies after drying, and solid, powdery pigment.The more binder the coating contains, the more regular reflection will be made from its smooth surface; conversely, with less binder, grains of pigment become exposed to the surface, scattering the light and providing matte ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead-based_paint_in_the...

    Prior to this the concentration of white lead in paint rose to its highest levels between the years 1930 and 1955, as much as half the volume in some paints, meaning many post-war UK houses have significant amounts of lead in original paint layers. [1] In the 1950s, alternative white pigments, such as titanium dioxide, were introduced.

  5. Wood preservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_preservation

    The PTI preservative imparts very little color to the wood. Producers generally add a color agent or a trace amount of copper solution so as to identify the wood as pressure treated and to better match the color of other pressure treated wood products. The PTI wood products are very well adapted for paint and stain applications with no bleed ...

  6. Hiding power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiding_power

    The hiding power is an ability of a paint to hide the surface that the paint was applied to. [1] Numerically, it is defined as an area of surface coated by a volume of paint (spreading rate) at which the "complete hiding" of the underlying surface occurs. [2]

  7. 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.

  8. Volume fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_fraction

    It is the same concept as volume percent (vol%) except that the latter is expressed with a denominator of 100, e.g., 18%. The volume fraction coincides with the volume concentration in ideal solutions where the volumes of the constituents are additive (the volume of the solution is equal to the sum of the volumes of its ingredients).

  9. Paint thinner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_thinner

    A paint thinner is a diluent solvent used to dilute paints or varnish. [1] [2] Organic solvents labelled "paint thinner" are usually turpentine or white spirits / mineral spirits for the use of diluting oil-based paints only. For water-based paints, such as acrylic paints, water is the primary solvent, but notably, may not always be the only ...
