PIGMENT & RESIN TECHNOLOGY, 2024 (SCI-Expanded)
Purpose - Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has high opacity, high brightness and whiteness, owing to its high refractive index value. It is mainly used in the coating industry and continuous efforts have been made to replace some of the TiO2 in paint with new pigments. This study aims to replace part of TiO2 pigment with various percentages of BaSO4, CaCO3 and kaolin in styrene butyl acrylate-based paint formulations, without changing the properties of paints using only titanium dioxide.Design/methodology/approach - To determine the optimum use rate of new pigment mixing, opacity, gloss, scrub resistance and weather resistance properties have been investigated in the water-based paint formulation. The morphological properties of these samples were examined by scanning electron microscopy analysis.Findings - In the total color change (Delta E) measurements, it was observed that the sample coded Ti-85/15(Ba) produced extremely similar results to the situation when TiO2 was used alone. It was seen that the best results were obtained when Ti-85/Ba-15 was used instead of TiO2.Originality/value - Comparison research on the impact of replacing TiO2 with BaSO4, CaCO3 and kaolin on the performance characteristics of water-based styrene butyl acrylate-based paint formulations has not been done in the literature, according to the literature search.
