GROUP 2 - PAINTS & COATINGS Flashcards
Ranges from the broad group of
environmentally-sound latex paints that many consumers use to decorate and protect their homes and the translucent coatings that line the interior of food
containers,
Paint
Types of paints
Commonly produced by adding zinc or lead straight to varnish. Proven to form hard and glossier coatings that are absolutely easy to clean.
Enamel Paint
Types of paints
Usually use white lead as its base and applied in 3
coatings. Can greatly achieve glossy and mat finishes while
being durable and affordable
Oil Paint
Types of paints
Often use polystyrene and polyvinyl acetate as its binding materials, and contains driers such as manganese and cobalt.
Emulsion Paint
Types of paints
Neither water nor oil-based but usually available in powder form, mixed using water to achieve paint consistency.
Cement Paint
Types of paints
Usually made from tar or dissolved asphalt that
ultimately gives it a common characterized black
color.
Bituminous Paint
Types of paints
This type of paint often uses water as the thinner,
and this is very much available in a wide-ranging
set of colors.
Plastic Paint
Types of paints
Often characterized by its own chemical
resistance as being implied with its name. Often apply for pipes or any metallic surfaces.
Anti-corrosive Paint
Types of paints
Adhesion could be improved through the addition
of castor oil and the surfaces could be cleaned
easily. Cars and airplanes are where cellulose paint is
best applied.
Cellulose Paint
Different Painting System
Applied directly onto the cleaned steel surface. Its purpose is to wet the surface and to provide good adhesion for
subsequently applied coats
Primer Coat
Different Painting System
Applied to ‘build’ the total film thickness of the system. Generally, the thicker the coating the longer the life. Designed to enhance the overall protection and, when highly pigmented, decrease permeability to oxygen and water
Intermediate Coat
Different Painting System
It provides aesthetic appeal to the overall paint
system. Used to protect the paint system.
Finish Coat
Different Painting System
additional coats of paint that are applied locally to welds, fasteners and external
corners
Stripe Coat
Substance or material used in the
neutralization of acidic water. Used in the neutralization of acid waters.
Neutralizer
Type of Neutralizer
Removes acid from walls so that the paint does not peel off. It is normally used on newly plastered concrete or after etching.
Masonry/Concrete Neutralizer
Type of Neutralizer
Chemically reacts with rust to create a
neutral surface that does not rust further and
makes it bondable with paint
Rust Neutralizer
A water-based paint, made from
acrylic resin. Recommended to
use latex paint when painting larger
areas because it’s usually purchased
in larger quantities
Latex Paint
Mixing Ratio for Latex Paint
- 1.6 cups of water
per 1 gallon of latex paint - 3:1 or 4:1
Creates a tough, hardened surface
that’s virtually impervious. Consists of two distinct elements: an epoxy resin and a polyamine hardener
Epoxy Paint
Refers to a range of solvents that are
designed to thin paint or remove paint from brushes, rollers, and other painting tool
Paint Thinners
special types of paint that contain
reflective materials, such as glass
beads or microprisms.
Reflectorized Paints
A primer that acts as a preparatory or protective coating that prevents rust formation on the ferrous metal surfaces exposed to humidity and air.
Red Oxide Metal Primer
A blend of high performance resins combined with fluoropolymer lubricants. They are formulated with a superior solid film lubricant that controls abrasion by substantially reducing friction.
Fluoropolymer
One of the most common industrial coatings.
Epoxy
