alkyd

Alkyds have, however, been used successfully for this purpose in other countries.

From these, the alkyds we know today were developed.

At this time, there are no details available on the situation but they apparently switched to alkyds.

Conversely at equal film build the alkyd will have a 37.5% greater spreading rate.

Alkyds are also used in items such as resins and paints.

Film forming alkyds are not recommended because of their inherent brittle nature.

The first is a blend of an amino resin and an alkyd.

Most of these are latex-based, not oil or alkyd.

"The pigments have to be squished into the alkyd," she says.

Because the alkyd starts off at a lower molecular weight you can get more of it in the can.

Alkyds and acrylics achieve their high molecular weights in very different ways.

Latex is more readily available in a full range of colours and application costs are probably lower than with alkyds.

Many paint manufacturers recommend a solvent-thinned alkyd type for this purpose.

Alkyds are used in paints and in moulds for casting.

He felt that alkyd is the only product that he could use during the winter.

Alkyds and acrylics form films by entirely different mechanisms.

Alkyds are the most widely used resin in coatings.

This system will work well for both waterbased and solvent (oil or alkyd) based paints.

Can be used in oil /alkyd / solvent based paint as well.

After the ceiling has been primed once with an alkyd, a latex paint can be applied.

Semi-gloss and flat alkyds do not have the necessary weather resistance for exterior exposure.

Polyurethanes are comparable in hardness to certain alkyds but generally form a tougher film.

An alkyd is a polyester modified by the addition of fatty acids and other components.

Modern varnishes are made from synthetic resins like polyurethane or alkyd.

Nevertheless, it is believed that use of alkyds on new wood should receive more consideration than it has in the past.
