Classification of alkyd resins based on oil length:
Oil length means the percentage of oil used in making the resin, which includes:
- Alkyd short oil (with 30 to 40% oil)
- Medium oil alkyd (with 40 to 50% oil)
- Long oil alkyd (with 50 to 60% oil)
Long oil Alkyd resin:
- In this type of alkyd, the amount of oil is more than 55% by weight (up to a maximum of 75%) and 20% to 30% of phthalic anhydride.
- These alkyds dissolve well in aliphatic solvents such as white spirit.
Some important properties of this type of alkyd:
- They have good engraving properties so that this type of alkyd is mainly used in construction oil paints.
- Lower drying speed than other types of alkyds
- Less difficulty
- Low viscosity
- More flexibility.
Material applications:
- Widely used in paint and resin industries, including the production of air-dry and matte and glossy oil paints used in buildings, decorations, furnace industries and automobiles.
- In polishes, liners
- In traffic colors
- In glossy building colors
- Wood and metal coatings
- Coating of metal structures
- Glossy white spray and…
