Paint Production Line

There are many types of paints. It is distinguished by the main basic raw materials. Paints are mainly divided into water-based paints and oil-based paints. Water-based paints are mainly used for architectural surfaces, and oil-based paints are mainly used for metal surfaces, furniture surfaces, and some industrial uses.

Due to the different physical properties, there are many differences between the production of water-based paints and the production of oil-based paints, mainly in two points:

First, the main base material of water-based paint is water. Therefore, it is very easy to clean when changing and producing paints of different colors in the same reaction kettle, and it will not cause cross-coloring of paints of different colors. The main base material of most oil-based paints is benzene or xylene. These materials are oil-based and are not easy to clean. If oil-based paints of different colors are produced in the same container, it is easy to cause color smearing.

Secondly, there are generally no volatile flammable and explosive substances in the raw materials of water-based paints, so there is no need to consider explosion-proof requirements when designing a water-based paint production line. On the contrary, there are generally volatile, flammable and explosive materials in oil-based paints. When designing oil-based paint production lines, explosion-proof requirements must be considered, otherwise explosions or fires may occur in the paint production process.

For the above reasons, as a paint production equipment manufacturer, we do not recommend users to produce water-based paint and oil-based paint on the same production line. At the same time, the design of water-based paint production line and oil-based paint production line is very different.
