Chemistry of Paints
Chemistry of paints, coatings, varnishes and lacquers.
Paints are liquid, liquifiable or powdery substances which after application to a substrate in a thin layer is converted to an opaque solid film.
Coatings are typically applied to surfaces and are designed to protect - especially against corrosion, the beautification of materials and articles, as well as artistic purposes. Coloring components are inorganic and organic dyes or pigments which are applied often dissolved in a solvent.
The following list includes online available information and resources about the chemistry of paints and varnishes.

Now in its second edition and still the only book of its kind, this is an authoritative treatment of all stages of the coating process -- from body materials, paint shop design, and pre-treatment, through primer surfacers and top coats. New topics of interest covered are color control, specification and testing of coatings, as well as quality and supply concepts, while valuable information on capital and legislation aspects is given. Invaluable for engineers in the automotive and paints and coatings industry as well as for students in the field.
Intended for use by engineers in the motor vehicle and paint and coatings industries as well as for students.
