The effects of driers on film properties of alkyd resin
Abstract
Reports on a comprehensive study of the effects of different driers on film properties of alkyd resin. The driers selected for study were calcium naphthanate and the octoates of cobalt, manganese, lead and zirconium. The properties studied were hardness, adhesion, flexibility, film formation, skinning tendency, water and acid resistance, viscosity and drying time. Concludes that driers not only dry coatings (paints, varnishes, resigns, inks) but have significant effect on the film properties. Infers that a combination of manganese, lead and zirconium can be used as the most promising drier system for better coating properties.
