Résumé : |
Distemper paints have long been associated with and play an important part of the Indian paint market. Designed as economical paints that can refreshed frequently to help keep building walls clean and bright, many different brands are available from small local producers to the largest of multinational companies. This evaluation looked at six commercially available Distemper products, five from the leading, multination brands and one from a local (Mumbai) supplier.
The chosen paints were all purchased from locations within Mumbai in September 2018. The paints were tested for their application and optical properties and the results compared to give a ranking of performance. The same paints were then evaluated, by various analytical techniques, to determine their approximate composition including titanium dioxide type and level and extender types and levels. Using the reverse-engineered formulations, the paints were then tested with various levels of FP-Pigments Opacity pigment replacing the titanium dioxide pigment. |
