Industrial paint is available in liquid, paste or powder form. It is essentially composed of :
- Binders - polyester resins, chlorinated rubber resins, etc. - which give it an adherent film after it has dried
- Pigments - covering pigments, anti-corrosion pigments, inert pigments, special pigments - which give it colour and opacity
- Thinners to give it consistency
- Additives - fungicides, plasticizers, wetting agents, etc. - which affect the quality, hardening, shades, etc.
Paint is used for the manufacture of paints, varnishes, inks, mastics, etc. The handling of polluting and toxic materials makes it a regulated sector.
