II. Test Methods

1. Colorant Protection


The binder composition was prepared by mixing 100 g first binder and 1.7 g second binder and stirring at 10-300 rpm for 10 min Under the role of the crosslinker, the binder composition was observed forming globules in a continuous phase. The resulted binder composition was then further stirred under 600 rpm for 10 min, and colorant protection was observed by naked eyes. If colorants were not released from the globules into the continuous phase or there was no color leaking out of globules and in contact directly in the case of multi-color paints, the colorant was protected; otherwise, the colorant was not protected.


2. Heat Aging Test


300 mL of each paint formulation was added into a 500 mL capped plastic bottle and heated under 50° C. in a Lindberg/Blue M™ vacuum oven of Thermal Electron Corporation for 10 Days. Paint formulations with good colorant protection were observed by naked eyes for gelation or syneresis after heat aging. Paint formulations were stable if neither gelation nor syneresis were observed.

Comparative Binder Composition 10 (Comparative Binder 10) did not comprise any crosslinker in its second binder, and Comparative Binder Composition 11 (Comparative Binder 11) comprised a non-recommended crosslinker (0.2% sodium borate) in its second binder. Comparative Binder 10 did not protect colorant in its first binder, and Comparative Binder 11 although protected colorant in its binder composition, but Comparative Paint 11 made from Comparative Binder 11 was not stable and it gelled. The result indicated that properly selected crosslinkers played a critical role to the binders' colorant protection and the paints' heat aging stability.


Comparative Binder Composition 9 (Comparative Binder 9) comprised insufficient amount of crosslinker in its second binder, and did not protect the colorant. The result indicated that the crosslinker's usage had to be higher than a selected level to achieve percentage binders' colorant protection performance.


Comparative Binder Compositions 12 and 13 (Comparative Binders 12 and 13) respectively comprised non-recommended first polysaccharide and insufficient amount of the recommended first polysaccharide in their first binders, and both of their binder compositions did not protect the colorant. The result indicated that the first polysaccharide component and its percentage were both critical to binders' colorant protection performance.


Binder Composition Examples 1 to 8 comprised respectively proper amounts of recommended components of the present invention, and showed good colorant protection performances and Paint Formulations 1 to 8 made from Binder Compositions 1 to 8 all showed good paint stabilities. Paint Formulations 1 to 7 were single-color paints while Paint Formulation 8 was a multi-color paint, both achieved the requirements of the present invention.
