No significant differences could be detected between these vehicles In any of the formulations exposed. There was however, a substantial difference between the three form ulations . The Y-18OO and Y-1867 types were much better with regard to mildew and general appearance as compared to the lead and zinc free formulation. t r 1 GID37594 r s -17- Seven month New Orleans and Cleveland exposures: Reference - Lab Book #215# exposure Series 2-l8 & N-2-18 Alkyds Evaluated t 1400-3 1400-12 v-869 V-855 85# Linseed IPA <85# Tall Oil IPA 6p# Soya OPA 75$ Linseed j OPA The primary formulation tested was a enamelized house paint based on V-869. Modifications of 3A# Anatase Titanium per gallon, l|# Anatase Titanium per gallon, l and 2^ gallons miIdeweide (VM-659 Super-Ad-It) per one hundred gallons, and 2# Busan 11 per gallon were included. These paints were exposed self-primed and over Y-1851. Results noted in Cleveland Exposures of the enamelized house paint (V-869, 0-5) with various levels of Anatase TiC>2 were greater yellowing with the Linseed IPA and slightly better general appearance and resistance to dirt accumulation with the Tall Oil IPA. Only the paints containing 14# Anatase Ti02 per gallon were equal in appearance to Y-loOO or Y-1850. The Y-1892 was poor in comparison to Y-1800 or Y-1850. No differences were noted between self-priming or using Y-1851 Primer for the enamelized house paints. The same paints at New Orleans showed several general results. All were very badly covered with mildew. All of the alkyds were the same. Doubling the mildeweide showed no Improvement, in all cases a slight improvement in mildew resistance was noted when Y-1851 was used as against self-priming. The use of none, 3/4#, or l# Anatase TiOg per gallon all yielded heavy mildew growth. The higher levels of Anatase Ti02 shbuld show less mildew. Y-1800 over Y-1851 was fairly mildew resistant at New Orleans and slightly better than Y-1850, Y-1892 was badly mildewed. The paints containing Busan 11 were the best looking ones at New Orleans. These same paints, when exposed at Cleveland showed slightly poorer general appearanoe and dirt accumula tion than their counterparts without Busan, because they were absolutely non-chalking.

Also tested Were General Paint# 1002 (Fume Resistant House Paint) and three Jones-Dabney (two top coats and one primer) Syntex house paint samples utilizing alkyds similar to V855. The Oronite formulas (CR-21947 stain & blister resistant zincfree H.P. and CR-22024 stain & blister resistant zinc containing H.P.) showed no difference between the alkyds tested. Neither formulation looked as good as Y-l800 at Cleveland. The CR-22024 was very good at New Orleans and the CR-21947was poor. Buckman Labs 9258c H.P. formula (2.5# Busan per gallon) showed no difference with any of the vehicles tested. At Cleveland greater dirt accumulation than Y-l800 or Y-I85O was noted. At New Orleans excellent appearance and oomplete mildew re sistance occured. General Paints 1002 Fume Resistant (alkyd type) H.P., when compared to Y-I85O,, was slightly worse at Cleveland and very poor at New Orleans. This was when exposed both self-primed and over Y-1851. The Y-I85O was not as good^as the Y-l800 at either location. The Jones-Dabney paints were slightly poorer than Y-l800 at Cleveland and much poorer at New Orleans. Their primer was equal in durability only to Y-1851 at both locations with either Y-1800 or Y-I892 top coats. Ti Pig 6131 Fume & Stain Resistant H.P. formula using Butlie & Anatase and Chlorowax 70 was equal to Y-1800 at either location. It was slightly better than Y-I85O at Cleveland and equalab New Orleans. These observations are a condensation of the data taken from the panels. Complete date is available in case of further or specific interest. The panels will be re-exposed and reported at the next examination.

Green Standard formulas of Mound Cities LZT644, LZT611, LZT607B and LZT605 using 35% leaded zinc were compared to formulas made with 18M (W249). Ho difference could be found and the 18M' formulations are judged equal to the standard. Three lots of Chemet 118 leaded zinc were compared to 18M (W249) in, Y1800. The results were equal and we recommend that Chemet 118 be added as a source of W249. 0-286 bodied linseed oil was compared to 0-315 and 398 bodied soya oil. Little difference was noted in these vehicles when comparing panels prepared in Cleveland and shipped to Hew Orleans. However, panels actually prepared in the field at Hew Orleans showed considerably more mildew on the soya paints than on the linseed paints. This indicates less dry on the part of soya as compared to linseed. Exposures were made in Y1892 and Y1850. The new machine grade dramatone was compared to the old quality dramatone in Y1850. We could find no difference in the two qualities. Hew Orleans exposures of Shake Kote shingle paint shows jh appreciable increase in mildew compared to Y2750, Velvet House Paint. EGL62006 our new lead free primer was compared to DuPont's 49, Sherwin-William's A-100 primer and Syntex 1260B10. Y1850 was used as a standard. At present, very little can be determined from these panels. The EGL62006 does show a slight advantage in mildew resistance under Y3600 and Y2750. EGL62001 (a Busan containing house paint) was also used as a primer in this series. EGL62001 uses 250# of Busan and looks very good for mildew resistance. Non-reactive (Dehorned) zinc oxide, W219 does not have good mildew resistance as compared to standard zinc oxide (W33). 75# of W219 and 25# of W218 were equal to 50# of W128 for mildew resistance in Everon House Paint.

Southwick Compare Mildew Resistance and Color Retention of Wollastonite vs. Calcium Carbonate in Endurance Tint Base 1W125. Comparison of Titanium Calcium Pigment (W180) vs. Pure Rutile Titanium (W208) Mixed with Magnesium Silicate. At two years south exposure Wollastonite shows slightly more chalk than calcium carbonate at Cleveland while at New Orleans there is very little difference in chalk. While there was no mildew at Cleveland the New Orleans panels did mildew, with calcium carbonate showing less mildew than Wollastonite. On color retention calcium carbonate was superior to Wollastonite at Cleveland and equal at New Orleans. The white paints were dirtier with calcium carbonate. Paints were made using 1.5#, 2.0# and 2.6# zinc oxide. All paints were exposed as whites and , 4 1 oz. tints using Dramatone Blue and Ferrite. All panels were primed with Y1851 Endurance BaSecoat and given one coat of test paint on four foot cedar siding and exposed at Cleveland and New Orleans.

Southwick SummaryConclusions : Due to problems of seeding being experienced in Japalac Gloss Enamel we have initiated work to examine a zlnefree gloss enamel formulation. Discussion: We have indications that a zinc-free enamel of high PVC : in the range of 25 - 35) has sufficient non-yellow ing to replace Japalac (zinc containing and PVC-17). Our work has just started and no results are available. Yellowing tests will be initiated and results available in three months. We are also at the same time investigating the possibility of removing the lead drier from the proposed Japalac formula to increase the resistance to discoloring or stain ing.

Southwick SummaryConclusions: The work mentioned in the January 1963 report has been con I tinued with more work on thin bodied oils. Some concern GLD37603 3 has been expressed concerning the durability of paints con taining thinner bodied oils. Along this line of thinking we are comparing paints made with different degrees of body to determine any effect on durability, in addition we are adding rutile titanium dioxide to our paints to decrease the erosion rates. GLD37604 18 MILL PRIMERS Subject: Contributors: SummaryConclusions: Discussion: TRADE SALES PRODUCTS Mill Applied Primers - SI4317K3 J. Watson, R. Toth April 1963 During the month work was done on Zytei 61 nylon resin. We continued with the industrial high build coatings, e.g. hard boiled mastic, vinyl. Also, work was continued on the tris-amino styrenated alkyd vehicles continually being prepared by Mr. T. Cashie. Finally, a study was started on the difference between lead and Busan in our basic primer formula. A solution of Zytei 61 nylon resin was made be refluxing 15% of the solid resin in a 80/20 mixture of ethanol and water. We then made a grind using only this cut and HO2. The material webbed very badly on spraying and could not be corrected. We did succeed in making a set of panels which was expsoed in the weatherometer. After 150 hours, all the panels were complete failures. No additional work has been planned. Tests are still continuing with the industrial high build coatings. A series is on the blister box while another is following a cycle of 4 hours soak at 180* F. and 20 hours in a 145* F. oven. So far, our best system is the hard boiled mastic with two coats of vinyl over it. The tests will continue since most of the panels are holding up very well. The tris-amino styrenated alkyd vehicles have been tested in our primer formulas and found to be far from adequate for mill application. The biggest complaint is - a residual tackiness that remains for at least 30 minutes. We are attempting to iron out these difficulties with the resin laboratory. A series is being prepared that will show a difference between Busan and lead. Our basic primer formula was used with Busan 11, lead silicate W236, and lead carbonate W104. GL037605 3 TRADE SALES PRODUCTS OIL PAINT - TRADE May 1963 Subject: Test Easy Dispersing Chrome Yellow in the Pilot Plant Cowles (SR9201R1) Contributors: R. W. Green, J. E. Southwick Discussion: As a follow up of work done on a laboratory basis, Cowles grinds of three easy dispersing chrome yellows were made in the pilot plant. These chrome yellows were Kentucky Colors 3-0 Softex Light Yellow, Imperial's 3320, and Mineral Pigment's Jet Milled Medium Chrome Yellow. Grinds were made on a special 369Y2 formula. This formula calls for: 220# pigment, 100# V869, 12# S43. Grinding procedure calls for a 20-30 minute grind on the Cowles at 140* P. The results of these grinds were not satisfactory. The Mineral Pigment chrome yellow while not dispersing to the desired 7-8 grind, did reach a clean 5-1/2 - 6 grind. This is not too bad when compared to standard YW2 which will only grind to a 1 under similar grinding procedures. The Imperial 3320 ground to a very dirty 5 and the Kentucky Color ground to a 4-6. The main difficulty in grinding, these chrome yellows is in the inability of the Cowles to operate at a speed sufficient to grind and still maintain a temperature of 140* F. Further at grinding speeds in these heavy pastes the Cowles will overheat if grinding is prolonged. This is, of course, the reason we are looking for a pigment that will disperse without too much work. In the near future we are planning to repeat this work with a new easy dispersing chrome yellow from du Pont. Correlation of pilot plant grinds of th ^e chrome yellows and laboratory grinds on the Cowles are not 'oo good. The reason is mainly due to easier control c- temperature and a lesser degree of overheating of the Cowles in the laboratory. Subject: To Give Better Gloss Retention and Mildew Resistance in Long Oil Alkyd Trim Paints (ST4310E2) Contributors: R. W. Green, J. E. Southwick Discussion: Three long oil alkyds similar in composition to SherwinWilliams Dyal XAD-10 have been compared in Endurance trim colors. The three varnishes involve variations to check the effects of fatty acid composition. These varnishes are 79A51 - an 801 N.V. 70* oil length 70FA/PA/PE alkyd, 79A55 - an 80S N.V. 70S oil length (26X linseed, 44S tall) TOFA - linseed/PA/PE alkyd, and 79A61 - an 80S N.V. 70S oil length soya/PA/PE alkyd. GLD3 7606 4 . ~i All of these alkyds look vary good on initial test. Exposure panels are being made. Also work has been started to find a bodying agent for this type of material. At present Attagel 30 looks very good. Subject: Busan House Paint (ST4310G2) Contributors: R. W. Green, J. E. Soutbvick Discussion: An 85L TOFA/IPA alkyd at 100 N.V. has been tested in the EGL62001 formula. This alkyd is similar to a TOFA/IPA alkyd suggested by Amoco. The level of Busan has been dropped from 230# to 200# per 100 gallons. This formula shows good dry and excellent gloss. Ho wrinkling was found as was often the problem with EGL62001. Ve are working on an Attagel 30 addition to this paint to overcome somb of the brush drag encountered in EGL62001 which uses RCR6164, linseed alkyd. We hope to have field tests on this material before cold weather sets in. Subject: Rustmaster (Y470) Primer (ST4314P2) Contributors: J. Bednarik, J, Davis, J E.

Six month exposures on wood and metal at New Orleans and Cleveland have shown this vehicle combination to give a Florenamel of superior gloss retention and chalk resistance. Tabor abrasion tests GL037607 5 TRAPS SALES PRODUCTS OIL PAINT - FAINTER June 1963 Subject: Development of a fast dry exterior house paint primer that can be recoated in 2 - 4 hours. (ST4329P2) Contributors: Green, Southwick SummaryConclusions: Several fast dry primers are now being evaluated. These primers are based primarily on two formulas. The first Is GP52783D using Aroplaz 7310 X-50. The second formula is a Busan primer developed by Mr. Watson using RCR6132 (V891 in S23). Both of the above formulas are mill primers. We have modified the Busan primer by substituting solvents in the formula and by variations in the alkyd. Three similar alkyds have been tested in this primer, a 60# NV soya Isophthalic, a 60# linseed Isophthalic alkyd, and a 6056 NV Safflower Isophthalic alkyd. The GP52783D formula has been modified by solvent substitu tion and by replacing lead silicate with lead carbonate. In addition to these formula a third primer has been devel oped using the RCR6132 family of varnishes. This primer is lead free and does not use Busan. Exposure tests are being prepared and will include fur plywood, cedar, yellow pine, and white pine. Blister test will be run on the blister box and in Mr. Saville's blister cabinet. Subject: ADM Soyagel for use In Low Cost House Paint Contributors: Davis, Southwick SummaryConclusions: Work has begun using ADM Soyagel In a low cost house paint formulation. This material is supposed to have thixotropy and excellent brushing. After making one experiment this material looks interesting.

Yellow to YW-2 presently being used In our 369 line. Tints of Y1892 and Y4575 have been made at both 1 loz and 4 loz levels. Initial tests show comparative colors very close in tint strength and color tone. Exposure panels of these materials are being prepared for examination of possible color retention of the Imperial materials..

Subject: Thixotropic House Paints Made with Versamld 3480 (ST4310E2) Contributors: Green, Southwiek Summary: A white alkyd trim paint was made using an 80# non volatile linseed/tall oil/20# phthalie/PE alkyd jelled with 8# Versamid 3480, The paint gave a low viscosity (70 KU initial and 78 KIJ after 3 days) but had excellent thixotropy that handled quite well. The addition of the Versamid 3480 had no effect on the gloss. The flow was good. The properties of this trim paint indicatesJthat it might be a satisfactory paint to consider for the future, however, the addition of 8# Versamid 3480 increases the price of the alkyd l8?5 per gallon. Subject: Alkyd Trim House Paints (ST4310E2) Contributors: Green, Southwiek Summary: Work is progressing on Alkyd Trim House Paints based- on an 80# linseed/tall oil/ 20# phthallic/ PE alkyd. Two colors Y-1813 and Y-186O were exposed in the spring of 1963 using this alkyd. These-.paints were made at' 64# KV and are slightly high in cost. At present we are reformulating these paints at 60-62# NV to bring the costs in line. All of the trim colors in our Endurance Line are being formulated with this alkyd. In addition a white trim paint with and without zinc oxide are being developed. The' purpose of this work.-'is to determine how much and the^type zinc oxide this alkyd can tolerate without excessive reactivity and cracking. Non-reactive zinc oxide (W219) is being tested alongwith leaded zinc (W249) and lead-free zinc (W33). Subject: Periodic Exterior Exposure Examination (ST4313C-2) Contributor: Summary: J-.
