Samples of paint (P), reused PET (PET-R) and paint/PET-R mixtures (PPET-R) were evaluated using DSC to verify their physical-chemical properties and thermal behavior. Films from paints and PPET-R are visually similar. It ...

The performance of a zeolitic rock, mainly clinoptilolitic (heated at 350 °C) is studied as humidity and ammonia adsorber in ceiling paints. The paints were formulated with 39% and 75% of zeolitic rock by volume of the ...

The main pigments in the painting by the Chilean artist Ignacio Gumucio were identified by using micro-Raman spectroscopy. Three works by the artist, two paintings with wooden stand and a wall painting were analyzed. ...

A material characterization of two artworks discovered in the San Francisco Church, Santiago, Chile, was performed using micro-Raman spectroscopy. Structural painted beams and a wall painting that belong to the same time ...

The present work depicts synergism anticorrosive behaviour between zinc hypophosphite and zinc phosphate in a commercial pigment mixture. Also, the performance of anticorrosive paints was evaluated. Synergism anticorrosive ...

The fungicide effect employing Aspergillus niger as a representative microorganism was tested applying a Photocatalytic paint formulated with an anatase carbon doped TiO2 and compared with a homemade non-active paint (rutile ...
