Alkyd resin based paints are most commonly used cost effective surface coatings in industrial segments as well as in our daily life for the purpose of protection and decoration of surfaces. In this research work, alkyd resin based air drying super white paint was prepared with micron sized ZnO, nano ZnO and ZnS pigments to study the comparative air drying properties. The effects of employed micron and nano pigments on air drying properties as well as physical-mechanical performances of formulated alkyd paints were studied by comparing them on the basis of rigorous standard evaluation techniques as per ASTM and BIS methods. It has been brought into notice that zinc sulfide pigment shown a small effect on drying property of alkyd resin based paint and the curing schedule of paint does not so much depend upon the pigment volume concentration. On the other hand, nano zinc oxide pigment had shown great effects on drying time alongwith improvement in physical and mechanical properties of air drying alkyd paints, but the best result was observed of the paint containing nano ZnO-micron ZnO blended pigments synergistic arrangement.
