The coatings they form have high performance characteristics. Depending on the type of polymer binder, water-dispersion paints are divided into polyvinyl acetate, acrylic and butadiene styrene.
Paints based on acrylic binders (acrylic paints) are the largest group of water-dispersion paints. They are more expensive, but also more versatile - they are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. It is no coincidence that acrylic paints account for more than 70% of paints produced in Europe. Acrylic dispersions are easily tinted to obtain over 15,000 colors and shades. They withstand intense ultraviolet radiation without changing their color. They are easy to use, dry quickly, are long-lasting and resistant to washing. Very often, latex is added to water-based paints, which gives the paint film a highly water-repellent effect. This creates paints that are waterproof after drying and withstand over 5,000-10,000 brush washing cycles.
