New acrylate polymers ‒ basis of paints for drawing on water via using EBRU technology

Abstract

One of the important applications is their use in the production of daylight fluorescent pigments (DFP) and, based on them, enamel, decorative and polygraphic daylight fluorescent paints, and some polymeric materials (polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, etc.). Pigments based on melamine-toluene sulfonamide-formaldehyde polymer (MTSF polymer) have found the most widespread usage. However, the dispersity of such pigment limits its possibilities when implemented in some directions. We developed pigments by emulsion polymerizing acrylic monomers with a particle size of 0.5-1 micrometers. Via the usage of organic luminophores, a color spectrum of emulsion DFP has been developed. The granulometric composition of pigments and their colorimetric characteristics (color tone, brightness, color purity) were studied.
