Water-based Alkyd Resin Coatings

Due to the easy availability and low price of raw materials for alkyd resin coatings, and the excellent gloss, flexibility, and adhesion of the coating film, it has become one of the most researched and produced in the coating industry. However, traditional alkyd resin coatings have low film hardness, However, traditional alkyd resin coatings suffer from low film hardness, poor water, and heat resistance, and their application does not meet the high-performance requirements of industrial development, so it is imperative to modify them to broaden the application area of alkyd resin coatings. The current research on the modification of alkyd resin coatings is mainly in two aspects: resin modification and color filler modification. Resin modification is done by introducing other groups into the resin molecular chain, or by blending with polyurethane, acrylic, epoxy, and silicone resins. The main purpose of color filler modification is to add different functional color fillers to improve the performance of alkyd resin coatings. The performance of alkyd resin coatings. Some progress has been made in these aspects. In this paper, we focus on the latest research on the modification of several waterborne alkyd resin coatings.
