General informations

Looking at a painted object will tell us that paint

is hard. However, the paint which we spray is a

liquid.

This transformation is due in the main part to

several components of paint whose functions

are described below.

Amongst these substances, we find :

Binders

Pigments

Fillers

The binder is generally a more or less transparent body

which resembles a resin. Dissolved on its own in a solvent

it produces a lacquer:

Binder + Solvent = Lacquer

Paint often bears the name of the type of solvent on

which it is based (cellulose paint is based on a cellulose

solvent). To darken the finish, we add highly colored

and very fine powders, which we call pigments:

Binder + Solvent + Pigments = Paint

Sticky film :

we say that a film is sticky when we put a finger

on it and it feels like adhesive tape

Dust-free film :

we say that the film is dust-free, when any dust

which lands on iot can be removed by blowing

Film that is dry to the touch : we say that the

film is dry to the touch when a finger does not

leave a mark on the surface.

Finger-nail hard : we say that the film is

finger-nail hard when we cannot mark it. In this

state, it can be polished or sanded.
