Excerpt from Rubber, Resins, Paints and Varnishes
IT has been our endeavour to present to the advanced student a brief summary of the properties of paints and varnishes together with those of their components, and a general statement of the principles underlying their manu facture. It is of importance to lay stress on the urgent need for research in the domain of oils and resins, not only on their chemical properties and composition but on those properties due to surface action and catalysis. Many properties of solutions of suspensoids and emulsoids are presented in varnishes and paints which are only recently receiving systematic investigation. Paints and varnishes have long been considered solely from the craftsman's stand point. Progress has been uneven, and from the methods of investigation employed the industry is wrapped in a thick cloak of traje secrets.
