Abstract
The insertion of nanoparticles into some industrial materials can give them special properties due to their high reactivity. These nanoparticles interact with other particles, changing and/or improving the final product properties. The aim of this work is to study the effects of nanoparticles of precipitated calcium carbonate (NPCC) with sizes between 40 and 60 nm on the characteristics of architectural paints when used as nanofillers together with micrometric fillers. For this study, two types of emulsion paints were prepared, one without and the other with NPCC. The emulsion paint prepared with NPCC showed better wet-state storage stability of the coating, greater abrasion resistance, lower roughness, and lower wettability than the conventional paint.
