About this Course


Paint is used to decorate, protect and prolong the life of natural and synthetic materials, and acts as a barrier against environmental conditions.Paints may be broadly classified into Decorative paints, applied on site to decorate and protect buildings and other objects, and Industrial coatings which are applied in factories to finish manufactured goods such as cars.

Paints contain:

  • pigment(s) - prime pigments to impart colour and opacity
  • binder (resin) - a polymer, often referred to as resin, forming a matrix to hold the pigment in place
  • extender - larger pigment particles added to improve adhesion, strengthen the film and save binder
  • solvent (sometimes called a thinner) - either an organic solvent or water is used to reduce the viscosity of the paint for better application. Water-borne paints are replacing some paints that use volatile organic compounds such as the hydrocarbons which are harmful to the atmosphere.
  • additives - used to modify the properties of the liquid paint or dry film
