How to Formulate Interior Acrylic Emulsion Paint: From Low-Cost to Premium Quality

Acrylic Emulsion Paint

Acrylic emulsion paint is a water-based coating formulated with acrylic emulsion as the binder, supplemented by additives and pigments.

Key Characteristics

  • Fast drying: It dries quickly, shortening the construction cycle.
  • Excellent water resistance: It performs well in humid environments, resisting moisture damage.
  • Strong weather resistance: It can withstand outdoor environmental factors like sunlight and rain, maintaining stability.
  • Easy application: It is simple to apply, suitable for both professional and DIY operations.
  • Good environmental performance: As a water-based coating, it has low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, being more eco-friendly.

Application Scenarios

It is suitable for surfaces that require water resistance and weather resistance, including:

  • Indoor areas: Walls, ceilings, and wood products in spaces like bathrooms and kitchens (humid environments).
  • Outdoor areas: Exterior walls of buildings.

Acrylic emulsion paint is currently a mainstream product in the coating market due to its comprehensive performance.

Production Process

1.Add materials 1-5 in sequence, disperse for 10 minutes until the cellulose is completely dissolved in water to form a transparent, particle-free gel.

2.Add materials 6-7 in sequence, disperse for 1 minute.

3.Add materials 8-11 in sequence, disperse at high speed for 30 minutes until the slurry fineness is <50μm.

4.Add materials 12-17 in sequence, disperse for 10 minutes; after the paint sample cools down, filter and package.
