Abstract
The study focused on creating a water-based paint using a locally accessible pigment (black seed powder) and soya bean oil. Soya bean oil’s hydrophobicity is incorporated into the paint matrix. The physical and mechanical qualities of the developed emulsion paint were tested. Results were positive for tackiness, stability, blistering, flexibility, and chemical resistance. Physical parameters measured included pH (8.35), density (1.09 g/cm3), viscosity (4.2 m2/s), opacity (4.8 m2/l), drying time (touch to dry and hard to touch) of 28 and 60 min, and specific gravity (1.95 g/cm3). All were found suitable for the coating industry. This paint is water-based. Using it adds value to emulsion paint and helps reduce volatile chemicals. This reduces ozone layer depletion and benefits the environment.
