These paints are designed to protect metal and concrete surfaces with different applications and are divided into two major categories: high build, medium and low solids.
low or medium solids are solid colors of up to 60% and contain 40% of the volatile component. Their hardening mechanism is semi-solvent or chemical reaction and is designed for conservation purposes. Their classification is based on the type of resin forming it and is classified into epoxy, polyurethane, industrial alkyd, and acrylic. Also, these products are designed in primer groups, intermediate layer and top coat layer, which are selected according to environmental conditions, type of structure, operating temperature, preparation method,and etc.
In today's industrialized world, the role of paint and coating in reducing the economic cost of a country is inevitable because the durability and longevity of all structures depends on their level of protection against destructive factors. Coverage applied on the surface should meet several expectations; surface protection (against corrosion, environmental conditions and mechanical damage), the appearance of beauty (car coating, home appliances and furniture), information (traffic signs, guidance signs And advertising). The coating is usually formed by the physical mixing of the resin, pigment, solvent and additive; the amount of solids in the formulation according to the applied method and the surface to be covered may reach 80% by weight, of which 60% of the total solids are pigments. In some cases, a high percentage of solvent in the color system is used to adjust the viscosity of the paint to suit the application and thickness of the final film. At the same time, in many applications, colorless solvent or paint with a very high solids content is the best choice. Among the color components, the resin is the most important component, and the coating classification is usually based on the nature of the resin in it. Manapolymer paint production department, by utilizing its full power and capacity, has been able to create a wide variety of colors and coatings in its products, according to the needs of different industries.
