Properties of Zinc Oxide in Paint Industry

Upper India manufactures a comprehensive range of Zinc Oxide for use in Paint Industry. Generally, the four main constituents of all paints are pigments, binders, additives and solvents (liquids). Pigments impart color while binder’s job is to “bind” the pigment together and create the paint film. Additives like Zinc Oxide provide typical paint properties such as mildew resistance. Solvents permit to place the paint on the surfaces. Zinc oxide is primarily used in primers and exterior paints due to its properties like mildew resistance, corrosion inhibition and stain blocking support. Above four ingredients combine to provide paint that meets your specific design needs.
