In recent years, the country has vigorously promoted green coatings, but which are environmentally friendly coatings? How many categories are there? There are three main categories:
1.Water-based coatings
Water-based coatings use water as a solvent to uniformly disperse film-forming substances in water, also known as water-based coatings or latex coatings. The coating technology is easy to master, the production process is simple, the construction is convenient, the formula has the advantages of high plasticity, etc., but the disadvantages are its poor wear resistance and chemical resistance, soft hardness and fullness deviation. Because water-based coatings have the characteristics of non-toxicity, non-irritation and non-combustibility, they are the main development direction of "environmentally friendly coatings".
After the early integration of waterborne coatings, the industry level has got rid of the uneven and vicious competition in the past, and is gradually forming economies of scale, which will promote the continuous alleviation of the cost pressure of raw materials such as waterborne wood coatings, and the price will gradually move towards "popularization".
Haisun water-based paint is introduced to the market with fast-drying waterborne wood paint, which can achieve 3 minutes drying and 4 hours delivery for coating construction, which solves the differences in the drying speed of water-based paints, water and soil in the north and south, and seasonal construction. Haisun fast drying waterborne wood paint is very suitable for wooden doors, wood veneers, office furniture, hotel furniture, whole house customization and other furniture enterprises, which can greatly improve the production efficiency of such enterprises.
2.UV coatings
UV paint, also known as ultraviolet light-curable paint, uses the energy of ultraviolet light to trigger the polymerization cross-linking reaction between molecules in the UV coating, so that the paint film can quickly cure into a film within 3-5 seconds.
Due to the use of light-curing film, UV coatings do not have problems such as large VOC emissions and long coating time of traditional paints, which is in line with the low-carbon economy and green economy policies vigorously promoted in China, and is an environmentally friendly and resource-saving coating variety that the coating industry is actively encouraging and promoting.
3.Powder coating
Powder coating is a solid powder coating that exists in the form of fine powder, transferred to the coated object in powder form, and is baked to melt and solidify to form a film. Different from ordinary solvent-based coatings and water-based coatings, its dispersion medium is not solvent and water, but air, so the volatile organic compounds of powder coatings are zero, which greatly reduces the safety hazards caused by solvents.
