PAINT DRIERS

Drier is one of the major components of an alkyd-based paint. The main function of a paint drier is to accelerate the drying of resin (mainly alkyd) in the paint and in consequence paint film becames hard. It helps the resin in the absorption of the oxygen from the air, make a cross-linked structure at the molecular level that hardens the film at the visible level.

Drying through thickness. Promotes polymerization and increases hardness. Slow drier, improves flexibility and durability. Sulfur staining tendency.
