Abstract

Paints and other coating systems form a solid layer during the film-forming process where different physical and chemical processes are important.Oxidative drying is a process in which the evaporation of solvents is followed by an oxidation process of the unsaturated binder under influence of oxygen in the air. This oxidative drying process is accelerated by the addition of catalysts, referred to as driers.
