Paint and varnish are everywhere around us.

In the home alone, there are hundreds of examples

of painted surfaces: kitchen cabinet doors,furniture, flooring, ceilings, refrigerators, toys. Butpaint is not just for making things beautiful andgiving out signals. It is just as much a matter of protecting the various products.

When choosing a paint it is important to considerits lifespan. The colour system has to last a longtime and you don’t want a paint that will soon needchanging because it has become unfashionable. It

is also important to factor in the financiallysustainable aspect of surface treatment

or painting

paints1. Pigments/dyes: texture, color & toughness

2. Binder: film forming component for durbility,

toughness& flexibility3. Solvent: curing property & viscosity of paints

4. Additives: special properties- used in verysmall quantities(optional)

LIFE CYCLE OF PAINTSLCAs can be used as a tool in identifying the

factors – raw materials, manufacture, use of transportation and waste – by which a product

has its greatest impact on the environment.

 The “Lifecycle Assessment of Paint” has threeobjectives.

• To build up a knowledge

database about paint

and its raw materials.

• To disseminate knowledge

Paint is a recyclableLatex paint is collected at collection

facilities and shipped to paint-recyclingfacilities.

How paint is recycled

 There are many ways that paint canbe recycled. Most often, the highest quality of 

latex paint is sorted out and turned back intorecycled paint that can be used. Recycledpaint is environmentally preferable to newpaint, while still maintaining comparable

quality. In many cases, reusable paints of the

New product….In three years, buildings covered in steel

sheets could be generating large amounts of solar electricity, thanks to a new photovoltaic

paint that is being developed in a commercialpartnership between UK universityresearchers and the steel industry.

These new solar cells also have theadvantage of being able to absorb across thevisible spectrum. That makes them moreefficient at capturing low radiation light thanconventional solar cells, and so well suited tothe British climate with its many cloudy days.

Use , storage & disposal

of paintsFollow label directions. If painting indoors, pay carefulattention to the mount of air circulating and to therecommended ventilation time after

painting has been completed. If at all possible, paintmoveable items outside. When storing paint, makesure lids are on tight. To reduce the amount of airentering the can, professional painters recommendstoring

tightly sealed cans upside down. Label the top of eachcan with the color name and date purchased.

Do not pour paint down household drains. Many of thechemicals in paint will not be treated by sewagetreatment systems or septic systems.
