Application Of Water-based Wax Emulsion In Artistic Coatings

The application of water-based wax emulsion in artistic coatings is mainly reflected in improving the performance of coatings and the quality of the final coating. The following is a specific analysis of its application

1. Improving coating performance
Improving wear resistance:
After water-based wax emulsion is added to artistic coatings, it can drift to the surface of the coating during the film formation process, evenly disperse and form a wax protective layer, thereby reducing the friction coefficient and significantly improving the wear resistance of the coating.

Enhancing scratch resistance:
The formation of the wax protective layer not only improves the wear resistance, but also changes the direction of the coating’s force, thereby enhancing the coating’s scratch resistance.

Improve gloss:

When the particle size of the water-based wax emulsion is less than 1/2 of the visible light wavelength (i.e. ≤200nm), light diffraction will occur, improving the gloss of the coating. The greater the change in the particle size of the wax emulsion, the more obvious the gloss effect. Improve anti-sagging: In architectural coatings, water-based wax emulsions can improve the anti-sagging properties of the coating and ensure the uniformity and stability of the coating on the vertical surface.

2. Optimize coating quality Improve coating smoothness:

The addition of water-based wax emulsion makes the coating smoother, improving the overall aesthetics and touch. Enhance coating adhesion resistance: The distribution of wax emulsion in the coating helps to enhance the adhesion between the coating and the substrate and improve the stability of the coating. Protect the coating from damage: The wax protective layer can effectively resist the erosion of the coating by external factors, such as ultraviolet rays, moisture, etc., and extend the service life of the coating.

3. Application Examples
Artistic paint formula: In the formula of artistic paint, water-based wax emulsion can be added in an appropriate amount to improve the overall performance of the paint and the quality of the coating. The specific amount added needs to be adjusted according to the type and performance requirements of the paint.

Polishing agent: Water-based wax emulsion can also be used as the main component of artistic paint polish to provide additional gloss and protection for the coating.

4. Precautions

Compatibility: When selecting water-based wax emulsion, it is necessary to ensure its compatibility with artistic paint to avoid stratification, coagulation and other phenomena.

Stability: Water-based wax emulsion should have good chemical stability to ensure that the performance does not change during long-term storage and use.
Environmental protection: Choose environmentally friendly water-based wax emulsion to meet the environmental protection requirements of artistic coatings.

In summary, the application of water-based wax emulsion in artistic coatings has significant advantages and can improve the performance of coatings and the quality of coatings. In practical applications, it is necessary to make reasonable selections and deployments according to specific needs and conditions.
