Derivan's CEO and head chemist Steven Patterson explains what Derivan Acrylic Paints are. Who uses Acrylic Paint? How do you use Acrylic Paint? And explains all the parts on paint tube labels including the small black and white squares. Paint pigments that we use to make vibrant colour, and how Derivan Acrylics can be used to create beautiful paintings! • More information on Acrylic Paints here: • https://www.derivan.com.au/derivan-ac... • • What is acrylic paint? • Acrylic paints are made up of three components. The binder is acrylic, the pigments are the colourant, and the water is the vehicle. The materials in these paints make it different from other types of paint, like oil paint and watercolour. • • Acrylic Paint vs Watercolour Paint vs Oil Paints • If we were to talk about what watercolours the binder is, gum Arabic pigment is pigment, and the vehicle is water. And if we're to talk about oil paints, the binder is the oil, and the pigment is the pigment the vehicle is also the oil, which serves two purposes. • • What is Acrylic Binder? • So back to what is acrylic paint? Acrylic paint is made up of acrylic, the pigment and the water, which helps these two things that are basically solids flow out, and we can manipulate and turns these solids into flowing paint. The acrylic binder is on a microscopic level tiny beads of plastic that are enveloped or surrounded with a chemical called coalescent. This coalescent allows them as the paint dries for the water to come out evaporate out and those little beads to be pushed together against each other. • The coalescent allows them to bind together chemically. Once the paint has cured it, this now gives us the structure to hold the pigment onto the substrate so the pigment impregnates the plastic and creates a film and that's what acrylic is when acrylic is dry. • 🎨 🖌️ ✏️ 🖼️ 👩‍🎨 🖊️ 🖍️ ✍️ • 🌐Derivan Website • https://www.derivan.com.au/ • 🌐Matisse Website • https://www.matisse.com.au/ • • 👍Derivan Facebook • / derivan.official • 👍Matisse Facebook • / derivanmatisse • • ❤️Derivan Instagram • / derivan.official • ❤️Matisse Instagram • / derivanmatisse • • 📌Derivan Pinterest • https://www.pinterest.com.au/derivan_... • 📌Matisse Pinterest • https://www.pinterest.com.au/Matisse_... • 👁️‍🗨️Derivan Matisse TikTok • / derivanmatisse
