What's the difference between water-based paint and paint?

Everyone should know about paint! In our life, everyone must use paint and paint when decorating the house. Although the paint contains a lot of key substances, it is still inseparable from our sight because of the helplessness of life. Everyone knows about paint, which is not surprising. Have you ever seen it in water-based paint? Do you know the difference between water-based paint and ordinary paint? The following small series will give you a detailed introduction to the specific differences between these two paints!

What's the difference between water-based paints and paints?

1. Comparison of appearance between coatings and waterborne coatings

A, oily paint contains a lot of irritating odor, and the odor contains harmful substances such as benzene, so in addition to formaldehyde and other measures need to be taken indoors, and harmful gases will be released and volatilized 10- 15 years; Easy to turn yellow, poor durability; The paint film is of good quality, but it is not easy to repair after being damaged.

B, water-based paint is nontoxic and odorless, contains no harmful chemicals, and can be checked in at any time; There will be no defects such as yellowing, and it will last as long as new; The paint film is not as hard as paint, but the hardness and scratch resistance of the new generation PU water-based paint can be comparable to paint, achieving the effect of "seeing wood but not paint".

2. Comparison of environmental protection between coatings and waterborne coatings

A, oily paint products contain benzene, toluene and their derivatives, which are highly toxic, among which polyester paint has the highest toxicity, followed by nitrocellulose paint; Highly flammable; A strong pungent smell.

B. Water-based paint uses water as dilution solvent, with ultra-low VOC content, non-toxic, tasteless, good environmental protection performance, safety and non-flammability.

3. Comparison of comprehensive properties between coatings and waterborne coatings

A, the organic curing agent for ordinary polyurethane coatings has the highest hardness; The effect of hand feeling and fullness is also the best.

B, the waterborne wood paint adopts waterborne acrylic synthetic system, and the hardness can reach the physical index of 2H; Bo Tu+"virtual texture" technology is adopted, which has good hand feel and fullness.

C. Nitro-based paint (oily paint) has the worst hardness, poor hand feel and fullness, because it needs to be brushed many times.

4, paint and water-based paint construction cost comparison

A. After the water-based paint is used up, the remaining paint can be stored in a cool place for continuous use. The paint must be used up at one time, otherwise it will only be wasted.

B, water-based paint can be directly used to repair furniture, and the paint needs to be polished first.

C, water-based paint has no special construction requirements, and ordinary people can brush it. Painting requires complicated steps, preferably professionals, and ordinary people are more difficult to brush.

Bian Xiao, the difference between paint and water-based paint has been introduced to you in detail. I hope you can take the time to read Bian Xiao's introduction. But then again, paint is not a good thing after all. Whether it is water-based paint or ordinary paint, long-term contact will definitely be good for us, especially if we smell paint for a long time. Fortunately, in recent years, with the continuous improvement of paint processing technology, the content of harmful substances such as formaldehyde in paint has been significantly reduced.
