Drying technologies for waterborne coatings
The main objective of the presented work is to give a wide-varied comparison of practical relevance of drying technologies for water based lacquers on wooden substrates. Generally, to provide an ultimate classification turned out to be very difficult since no technology proved to be the definitely best one for every use. Rather every technology featured both, advantages and disadvantages for several parameters. Generally two main tendencies clarified: Slow and gentle drying, obtained, E.g., with Hydrex leads to beautiful and smooth optic and haptic properties but decreases chemical and mechanical resistance of the surfaces. Thermally forced drying (IR, Microwave) results in highly resistant but rougher surfaces with less feel so finally the need of the user must help to decide. OIR (optimized infrared) mostly combines both tendencies. HF- technology seems to be auspicious, but not fully developed. Furthermore the drying also depends on lacquer composition and additives. Finally a recommendation of the best technology can only be given concerning the special conditions and requirements of each applicant. Therefore the results and the built up cost model can be an important help as well for small traders as for industrial applicants.
