Recommended Formulation

High-Gloss Water-Based Acrylic Enamel (Based on Test Data)

Processing Instructions:

1. Add water, dispersing agent, and wetting agent to mixing vessel
2. Slowly add TINOX TPW-716 under moderate agitation (800-1000 rpm)
3. Increase agitation speed to 1500-2000 rpm for 15-20 minutes until Hegman fineness ≥6.5 is achieved
4. Reduce speed and slowly add acrylic emulsion
5. Add coalescing agent, defoamer, rheology modifier, and preservative
6. Adjust pH to 7.5-8.5 with ammonia solution
7. Add remaining water to achieve desired viscosity
8. Filter and package

Expected Performance (Based on Tinox Test Data):

• Whiteness Index: ≥96.5
• Gloss (60°): ≥85 GU
• Contrast Ratio: ≥0.98
• Yellowness Index: <1.5
• PVC: ~25%

Note: This formulation is based on test data from the TINOX TPW Series brochure, specifically the acrylic enamel paint tests with 75% emulsion content (PVC = 25%).
