| Résumé : |
Flow behavior is one of the most important technical properties of a coating system, that is determinated primarily by the binder (its chemistry, molecular weight), the solvent content and affinity to the resin, the pigmentation, and a variety of coatings additives. However, there is a wide range of rheological additives available to the formulator, that usually only can render liquid coating compositions the flow characteristics necessary to assure their proper processing, shelf stability, application properties and defect-free end coatings with desirable technical characteristics. This includes film thickness, uniformity, and many decorative and protective properties. This article considers paint rheology and describes viscosity-controlled processes in coatings. |
