  2. Acetone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetone

    Acetone (2-propanone or dimethyl ketone) is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 CO. [22] It is the simplest and smallest ketone (>C=O).It is a colorless, highly volatile, and flammable liquid with a characteristic pungent odour, very reminiscent of the smell of pear drops.

    Nail polish, whipped cream, ketchup, molasses, syrups, paper pulp in water, latex paint, ice, blood, some silicone oils, some silicone coatings, sand in water: Generalized Newtonian fluids: Viscosity is function of the shear strain rate. Stress depends on normal and shear strain rates and also the pressure applied on it Blood plasma, custard, water

  4. Waterborne resins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterborne_resins

    Most coatings have four basic components. These are the resin, solvent, pigment and additive systems [5] but the resin or binder is the key ingredient. Continuing environmental legislation in many countries along with geopolitics such as oil production are ensuring that chemists are increasingly turning to waterborne technology for paint/coatings and since resins or binders are the most ...

  5. Surfactants in paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surfactants_in_paint

    The solvent also modifies the curing rate and viscosity of the paint in its liquid state. There are two types of paint: solvent-borne and water-borne paints. Solvent-borne paints use organic solvents as the primary vehicle carrying the solid components in a paint formulation, whereas water-borne paints use water as the continuous medium.

  6. Acrylic paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_paint

    Toluene and acetone can remove paint films, but they do not lift paint stains very well and are not selective. The use of a solvent to remove paint may result in removal of all of the paint layers (acrylic gesso, et cetera). Oils and warm, soapy water can remove acrylic paint from skin.

  7. Electrophoretic deposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophoretic_deposition

    In such applications, organic solvents are used instead of water as the liquid medium. The organic solvents used are generally polar solvents such as alcohols and ketones. Ethanol, acetone, and methyl ethyl ketone are examples of solvents which have been reported as suitable candidates for use in electrophoretic deposition.

  8. Water miscible oil paint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_miscible_oil_paint

    However, their handling is slightly different: when thinned with water to a considerably liquid phase, water miscible oil paint tends to feel and behave like watercolor (although, unlike watercolor, and to a greater extent than traditional oil, it may lose adhesion to the ground or support if over-thinned); by contrast, when used as a short ...

  9. Green solvent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_solvent

    Water-based coatings have largely replaced standard petroleum-based paints for the construction industry; however, solvent-based anti-corrosion paints remain among the most used today. Supercritical water (SCW) is obtained at a temperature of 374.2 °C and a pressure of 22.05 MPa. [ 4 ]
