Solvents Selection for Industrial Coatings

By François Magnin

In paints and coatings, solvents are majorly used to dissolve or disperse various components used in the formulation. Industrial Coatings made with solvents dry up to 10 times faster than low-solvent alternatives at room temperature, making painting fast and easy along with other benefits such as long-lasting protection, brilliant performance in extreme weather conditions and many more. Explore main factors to be considered while selecting the right solvent for your industrial coating formulations from a range provided by the coatings market. Also, find out a primary evaluation of the different solvent families (hydrocarbons, ketones, esters, alcohols, glycol ethers….) and some specific...
