Formulation of Paints Using Azo Pyridone Pigments and Alkyd (Soya Beans Oil), Characterisation and Their Application on Leather
Abstract
The use of locally available raw materials in the
formulation of paint is of paramount importance as it provides
job opportunity for poor local people, produce ecofriendly and
biodegradable products as well as substantiates the aspect of
modern biotechnology in developing countries. In this
research,Paints were formulated using azopyridone complexes
and soya alkyd derived fromesterification of soya oil with maleic
anhydride and glycerol. The formulations were applied on
leather using hand brush, and the samples produced were
subsequently, subjected to physical characterisation such as
density, viscosity, solubility, surface drying times, pH and light
fastness and also compared with the commercial paint. The pH
and the fastness property of the coatings were found to be 8 and
6-7, respectively, which is very good.
