HISTORY
➔ Dates back to Prehistoric times
◆ The inhabitants of the earth recorded Hazards in colors on the walls of the caves.
◆ Crude paints consists of colored earths or clays suspended in water.
➔ 1500 B.C.
◆ Egyptians developed the art of painting and had wide number and variety of colors.
➔ 1000 B.C.
◆ Egyptians discovered the forerunner of our present-day varnishes.
◆ Pliny outlined the manufacture of white lead from lead and vinegar, and it is probable that
this ancient procedure resembles the old Dutch process.

What is Paint?
➔ Mixture of usually opaque solids, dispersed in a liquid medium
which is used as a protective and/or decorative coating for suitable
surfaces.
➔ Used to decorate, protect and prolong the life of natural and
synthetic Industries and acts as a barrier against environmental
conditions.
1
Purpose of Paints
➔ To restrict the corrosion of paint
➔ To provide resistance against corrosive effect of sun, wind, rain,
frost, atmospheric pollution and other natural elements (e.g. heat,
moisture, etc.)
➔ To provide delays in rusting
➔ Provides aesthetic looks to Industries and smooth surface for easy
cleaning

What is Pigment?
➔ A pigment is a material that changes the colour
of reflected or transmitted light as the result of
wavelength-selective absorption.
➔ Pigments are insoluble and are applied not as
solution but as finely ground solid particles
mixed with a liquid.
➔ Pigments are important constituents in paints,
coatings and inks.

History of Pigments
● Early man used earth pigments on cave walls such as yellow earth (ochre), red earth (ochre) and
white chalk. Ochres are coloured clays that are found as soft deposits within the earth.
● In 1704, the German colour maker Johann Jacob Diesbach created Prussian blue by accident in his
laboratory.
● In 1828, the chemist Jean-Baptiste Guimet created a low cost blue, French ultramarine
● In 1834, Winsor & Newton developed a method of heating the oxide to increase its opacity.
● In 19th Century, the the discovery of alizarin became the most important organic pigment

Dutch Process
Lead is melted and cast in the form of 6-in. perforated disks which are placed on a shelf in small
earthenware pots containing 3 percent acetic acid in reservoirs. The pots are then stacked in tiers,
covered with boards, and arranged 10 tiers high. Spent tanbark is placed all around the pots. During a
period of about 100 days, the acetic acid vapors, moisture, and the carbon dioxide gas from the warm
fermenting tanbark act on the lead to give the flaky white lead or basic lead carbonate. This is broken
away from any unreacted lead, ground, floated in water, and dried to give the product which contains
about 70 percent carbonate and 30 percent hydroxide
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Carter Process
The melted lead is atomized by spraying from nozzles by means of air or superheated steam. This finely
divided lead is periodically treated or "corroded" with a spray of acetic acid, purified carbon dioxide gas
from coke, and air in a large slowly revolving wooden cylinder to give the white lead after some 5 to 12
days. This material is whiter, finer, and more uniform than the old Dutch lead.
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Electrolytic Process
The reaction is carried out by means of a concrete electrolytic diaphragm cell made up of lead plates as
anodes, suspended in sodium acetate solution and iron plates as cathodes, suspended in a sodium
carbonate solution. The white lead is carried out of the cell with the anolyte and is settled, filtered,
washed, and dried to give the final product.

Zinc Oxide
➔ Zinc oxide has a higher opacity or covering power
than most grades of white lead.
➔ It is the truest white that can be obtained and its
color is unaffected by gases in the atmosphere.
➔ Zinc oxide prevents premature chalking through the
formation of zinc soaps and through its high opacity
towards ultraviolet rays.

Process
In this process, it produces the zinc oxide directly from the
ore, franklinite. This ore is mixed with coal and delivered to
a specially designed furnace. The product is collected, the
coarse in cyclones and the fines in bag filters. This product
would have the analysis ; ZnO, 65 percent; PbO, 9 percent;
PbS04, 26 percent.
SLIDESMANIA.COM
Electrothermal Process
The concentrated ore is first roasted and the sulfur content reduced from 32 to about 1 percent. The product
from the roaster is mixed-with coke, fluxes, and various residues and is then fed to a sintering machine.
Carefully sized coke is mixed in and the mass sent through a gas-fired preheater into the electric resistance
furnace. Electrodes are inserted in the charge, the charge acting as the resistance and the temperature rising
to 1200°C. The product is collected, screened, packed, and shipped.

Lithopone
➔ It was originally prepared in 1874, had an incorrect
particle size and possessed a tendency to turn
temporarily gray on exposure to ·sunlight. In 1880, it
was discovered that heating the product to a red
heat and plunging it into water remedied the
physical defect.

cheap white pigment.

➔ The most recently introduced and the largest seller of
white pigments because of its low cost per unit of hiding
power.
➔ It is marketed in the rutile and anatase crystal forms.

and lacquers.

RESPIRATORY HAZARD
● Respiratory hazard severity is often greater for solvent-based paints due to their composition. Exposure risk is increased
while using solvent-based paints, due to use of reducing agents (organic solvents), and clean-up solvents, such as mineral
spirits or turpentine
SKIN HAZARD
● Many organic solvents cause defatting of the fats and oils of the skin causing it to become dry, scaly and irritated.
Prolonged contact to certain organic solvents may result in allergic skin contact dermatitis. Other organic compounds
may be absorbed through the skin causing long term systemic effects to the liver, kidneys and heart
SLIDESMANIA.COM
● The most critical environmental impact from paints is the release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during the drying
process after the coating is applied.
● VOCs participate in the formation of ozone. In the presence of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sunlight, VOCs react with oxygen
in the air to produce ozone, the most toxic component of the form of pollution commonly known as smog.
● By far the greatest environmental impact is derived from the manufacture of Titanium Dioxide because of the numbers of
waste streams, including spent acid and metal sulfates.
● Paints contain solid pigments that can increase the turbidity of water. In addition to making the water “muddy” and
unsightly, they can cause particles to clog the gills of fish, and restrict their ability to breathe.
