Exterior Paints

Exterior Paints

Exterior paints are coatings designed to protect and beautify the outside surfaces of buildings, structures, and other outdoor objects. Latex (Water – Based) Exterior Paints are the most widely used type of exterior paint today.

Recommended Solutions

1. HEC

Celopro® HEC provides good water retention, which prevent the paint from drying too quickly. It also has excellent thickening ability and stability.

Recommend grade: Celopro® HHB6000SCelopro® HHB30SCelopro® HHB70S

2. MHEC

Celopro® MHEC offers good thickening and rheology control properties, which can help to prevent sagging and improve the workability of the paints.

Recommend grade: Celopro® MH55MSCelopro® MH70MS

3. HPMC

Celopro® HPMC acts as a thickener, binder, and stabilizer in exterior coatings. It’s cost effective in exterior paints, especially in texture paints.

Recommend grade: Celopro® MK70MSL

4. Cellulose Fiber

Celofiber® Cellulose fibers can improve the cracking resistance, Adhesion and Workability on exterior paints.

Recommend grade: Celofiber® CF200WCelofiber® CF300W

5. Guar Ether

Guarmer® Guar ether is a modified form of guar gum and used as a thickening and stabilizing agent in the exterior paints, with good water retention and film – forming Properties.

Recommend grade: Guarmer® HPG11D

6.CMC

Celopro®CMC can help to control the viscosity and flow properties of paints, for better leveling, which also improves the stability of paint formulation, and preventing separation of pigments and other ingredients.

Recommend grade: Celopro® CS170D, Celopro® CS180D

Product Features and Advantages

1. Thickening and Rheology Control
Good thickening property increase the viscosity of the paint, which is crucial for preventing sagging when the paint is applied to vertical surfaces such as exterior walls.
2. Water Retention
In outdoor environments, rapid drying due to sunlight, wind, or low humidity can lead to issues such as cracking, orange – peel texture, or poor adhesion. Good water retention slowing down drying process in exterior applications, and enhancing open – time of the paint,  this provides more flexibility to painters.

3. Stabilization of Pigments and Fillers

Cellulose ethers help to keep pigments and fillers in a stable suspension within the paint, by which contribute to a more uniform color distribution in the painted surface.

4. Enhancing Film – Forming

A well – formed film provides better protection to the exterior surface from environmental factors like rain, snow, UV radiation, and wind.

5. Improving Adhesion

Whether the surface is concrete, wood, masonry, or other materials, better adhesion reduces the risk of the paint peeling or flaking off over time, which is a common problem for exterior paints due to weathering.

The choice between HEC and HPMC for paint formulations hinges on understanding their subtle differences.
Paint additives are used in very small quantities, but can significantly improve the properties of paints, so has become an indispensable part of paints – Hydroxyethyl Cellulose in water-based paints. The thickener is a rheological additive. It not only can thicken the paint and prevent sagging in construction, but also can give the paint excellent mechanical properties and storage stability. For the water-based paint with low viscosity, Hydroxyethyl Cellulose is a very important class of additives.
HEC is the abbreviation of hydroxyethyl cellulose. It is a white or light yellow, odorless, non-toxic fibrous or powdered solid, prepared by etherification of alkaline cellulose and ethylene oxide (or chloroethanol), and is non-ionic soluble cellulose ethers.
