DEVELOPMENT OF ECO-FRIENDLY WATER-DISPERSION PAINT BASED ON POLYVINIL ACETATE DISPERSION

Interior paint is important for interior decorating; this is followed by a long time working with the col-oring material and a constant stay in rooms with the paint. Unfortunately, not all paints provide com-fortable and safe use. This article presents the development of eco-friendly water-dispersion paint based on polyvinyl acetate dispersion. This paint provides protection from carcinogenic, mutagenic and toxic effects. The main environmental requirements set by the standards are considered; the con-tent of substances in the paint that harms people is monitored. The influence of some paint compo-nents on person’s functionality and the possibility of their replacing without quality reduction is dis-closed in the paper. The main physical and mechanical properties such as conditional viscosity, densi-ty, mass fraction of nonvolatile substances, coating adhesion, milling degree, resistance to static ac-tion of water and weather resistance are determined. Attention is paid to the applied research meth-ods. As a result of testing, a water-dispersion paint with high technical characteristics is obtained. It can be used in all types of buildings and structures and be recommended for children's, medical and preventive institutions.
