Water permeability of pigmented waterborne coatings
چکیده انگلیسی

Coatings are used in a variety of applications. Last decades more and more coating systems are transforming from solvent to waterborne coating systems. In this study the influence of pigments on the water permeability of a waterborne coating system is studied, with special interest in the possible interfacial layer of additives around the pigments. In our study an acrylate based binder is mixed with different glass sphere concentrations and sizes. Subsequently, the coating permeability is studied through wet-cup experiments and water uptake in the coating, either on a glass substrate or on wood, is monitored with NMR. These experiments show that water is absorbed more quickly by coatings containing glass spheres. From the experimental results it can be concluded that an interface layer around the pigment particles facilitates water migration and increases the effective diffusion. A modification of the effective medium theory is used to describe the observation and good agreement between experiments and theory is obtained. Both theory and experiment show that in a coating a layer around the pigments facilitates water transport and increases the effective diffusion constant.

► An interface layer around the pigments can facilitate water transport.
► NMR experiments show that a small layer around pigments facilitates water transport.
► At a constant PVC and increasing pigment size the diffusion coefficient decreases.
► The modified effective medium theory shows similar trends.
► An interface layer is crucial for the barrier properties of the coating.
