paint lithopone suppliers

Resumen–En este artículo se discute el descubrimiento del litopón fosforescente en dibujos a la acuarela por el artista americano John La Farge, fechados de 1890 a 1905, y la historia del litopón en la industria de los pigmentos a finales del Siglo XIX y principios del Siglo XX. A pesar de tener muchas cualidades deseables para su uso en pintura para acuarela o pinturas al óleo blancas, el desarrollo del litopón como pigmento para artistas fue obstaculizado por su tendencia a oscurecerse con la luz solar. Su disponibilidad para los artistas y su adopción por ellos sigue siendo poco clara, ya que por lo general los catálogos comerciales de los coloristas no eran explícitos al describir si los pigmentos blancos contenían litopón. Además, el litopón se puede confundir con blanco de plomo durante el examen visual, y su fosforescencia de corta duración puede ser fácilmente pasada por alto por el observador desinformado. A la fecha, el litopón fosforescente ha sido documentado solamente en otra obra mas: una acuarela por Van Gogh. Además de la historia de la fabricación del litopón, el artículo detalla el mecanismo para su fosforescencia, y su identificación con la ayuda de espectroscopía de Raman, y de espectrofluorimetría.

Polyvinyl butyral (PVB) is dissolved into 12 ~ 14% solution with ethanol and made into film. It is used for printing paper film of ceramic (or enamel) products. The fired ceramic (or enamel) patterns have bright color and smooth texture. The flower paper is characterized by convenient use, low cost, smaller than the original glue, greatly reducing the decal process and high color burning rate. At present, most porcelain factories in China have formed relatively formal production lines for standardized production. Therefore, the demand for PVB in the ceramic (or enamel) flower paper industry is increasing.

Application field of polyvinyl butyral -- electronic adhesive

Polyvinyl butyral contains hydroxyl, vinyl acetate and butyraldehyde, which has high bonding properties. Phenolic 
Resin was added into PVB ethanol solution to make adhesive, which can be used for a long time at 120 ℃. The product has strong adhesion to metal, wood, leather, glass, fiber and ceramics; FRP can be manufactured to replace non-ferrous metals such as steel, aluminum and copper; The adhesive made by adding this product and curing agent into epoxy resin is often used for bonding and assembly of electronic instrument components, bonding between metal and porous materials, emergency repair, etc. it can also be used in the field of electronic ceramics. In the development of ceramic integrated electronic circuits, this product with medium viscosity and low hydroxyl is used as ceramic powder adhesive to increase the primary strength of ceramics.

Application field of polyvinyl butyral -- copper foil adhesive

Polyvinyl butyral (PVB) and phenolic resin cooperate to produce copper foil adhesive, which is used in the production of copper clad laminate. It has good peel strength and tin welding temperature resistance, and is widely used in various fields.

Application field of polyvinyl butyral - self adhesive enamelled wire paint

Polyvinyl butyral is the main raw material of self-adhesive enamelled wire paint. After the enameled wire is wound and formed in the electrodes of motors, electrical appliances and instruments, as long as it is heated for several minutes at a certain temperature or treated with appropriate solvent, the coils can be bonded together by themselves without impregnation and drying.

In a 2019 study published in the journal Nanotoxicology, researchers recreated the first phase of digestion in mice and fed them titanium dioxide, then examined whether accumulation occurred in the organs. Researchers wrote: “Significant accumulation of titanium was observed in the liver and intestine of E171-fed mice; in the latter a threefold increase in the number of TiO2 particles was also measured. Titanium accumulation in the liver was associated with necroinflammatory foci containing tissue monocytes/macrophages. Three days after the last dose, increased superoxide production and inflammation were observed in the stomach and intestine. Overall, [this] indicates that the risk for human health associated with dietary exposure to E171 needs to be carefully considered.”

  • The primary function of titanium dioxide in paint is its ability to provide superior opacity. By effectively hiding the underlying surface, it allows fewer coats of paint to achieve the desired color intensity and uniformity. This not only reduces material costs but also shortens application time, making it an economical choice for paint manufacturers. Additionally, titanium dioxide's refractive index contributes to the brightness and cleanliness of the paint film, ensuring that colors remain vibrant and true over time.
