Effect of surface tension on emulsion paint and film performance
Surface tension is the key to a liquid's ability to spontaneously spread (wet) a solid surface. In the manufacture and application of coatings, wetting or self-spreading is a very necessary condition. At present, because latex paint has the advantages of simple construction, rich colors, convenient maintenance, low pollution, low energy consumption, and relatively cheap price, it is more and more widely used in various domestic industries. However, as an important feature of latex paint, surface tension has a great influence on the performance of its paint film.
This paper mainly analyzes the effect of surface tension on the properties of latex paint, including the effect of surface tension on wet film leveling, the effect of surface tension on film adhesion, and the effect of surface tension on pigment dispersion. The following specific analysis:
