| Why is evaporation rate of the solvents in paint important to a successful coating? |
| |
| Solvent selection can be critical to achieving a successful coating. If the solvent chosen has an evaporation rate (E.R.) that is too slow, poor block and print resistance and slow drying can result. If the solvent chosen has an E.R. that is too fast, the paint could have poor flow and leveling properties. Eastman coalescing agents such as Texanol ester alcohol provide excellent film forming properties. |
