Coatings
Overview of Coatings
Coatings are materials applied to surfaces to provide protection and decoration. They are typically composed of a binder, solvent, pigments, and additives. Coatings can be classified based on their composition, performance, and application, such as water-based, solvent-based, and functional coatings. Coatings are widely used in industries such as construction, automotive, industrial equipment, and home appliances. They not only provide aesthetic effects but also offer protection against corrosion, water, and wear.
Role of These Chemicals in Coatings
Sodium Hexametaphosphate
Role: Acts as a dispersing agent, improving the dispersion of pigments and fillers, preventing sedimentation, and ensuring uniformity in the coating. It also serves as a stabilizer, enhancing flowability.
Application: Used in water-based coatings, latex paints, and high-performance coatings to improve the stability and dispersion of the paint.
Sodium Tripolyphosphate
Role: A powerful dispersing agent, it helps maintain uniform distribution of pigments and fillers, preventing their settlement and improving the overall quality of the coating.
Application: Mainly used in water-based coatings and environmentally friendly paints to enhance performance and prevent pigment settlement.
Sodium Hexametaphosphate
Role: Functions as a dispersing agent, ensuring even distribution of pigments and fillers in coatings and enhancing their stability, improving coating quality.
Application: Widely used in water-based coatings and functional coatings, especially in eco-friendly paints.
Anhydrous Sodium Acetate
Role: Acts as a pH adjuster and curing agent, adjusting the viscosity of the coating, improving the hardness and wear resistance of the coating film.
Application: Commonly used in solvent-based coatings and high-gloss paints to improve durability and hardness.
Sodium Acetate Trihydrate
Role: Primarily serves as a pH buffer, regulating the acidity and enhancing the stability of the coating, while improving film formation.
Application: Used in water-based coatings, wood finishes, and protective coatings to enhance stability and flowability.
Trisodium Phosphate
Role: Functions as a cleaning agent and pH adjuster, typically used in surface preparation before the coating application and assisting with dilution and stability of coatings.
Application: Used in surface treatment of coatings and as a thickening agent in formulations.
Monopotassium Phosphate
Role: Serves as a pH adjuster, maintaining stable pH levels in coatings, while improving their flow properties.
Application: Commonly used in water-based coatings, latex paints, and functional coatings to regulate pH levels.
Disodium Phosphate
Role: Primarily acts as a pH stabilizer, ensuring the coating maintains stable viscosity and flow during application, enhancing workability.
Application: Widely used in latex paints, wall coatings, and other water-based coatings to improve adhesion and workability.
Sodium Dihydrogen Phosphate
Role: Functions as a buffering agent, regulating the pH level and improving adhesion and durability.
Application: Used in water-based coatings and exterior paints, particularly enhancing water resistance and adhesion.
Ammonium Dihydrogen Phosphate
Role: Acts as a pH adjuster, improving the adhesion and heat resistance of coatings.
Application: Used in industrial coatings and anti-corrosion coatings to improve oxidation resistance and corrosion protection.
Ammonium Hydrogen Phosphate
Role: Serves as a stabilizer and pH adjuster, enhancing the coatings' weather resistance and anti-aging properties.
Application: Used in high-temperature industrial coatings and protective coatings for durability and longevity.
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate
Role: Acts as a surfactant, improving the wetting properties and flowability of the coating, enhancing workability and uniformity of the application.
Application: Used in water-based coatings, wall paints, and latex paints to improve coating application and adhesion.
