Excerpt from The Chemistry and Technology of Paints The manufacture of mixed paints is essentially American, having been accredited to some enterprising New Englanders who observed that when a linseed oil paint was mixed with a solution of silicate of soda (water glass) an emulsion was formed, and the paint SO made Showed very little tendency to settle or harden in the package. Several lay claim to this discovery. The first mixed paint was marketed in small packages for home consumption and appeared about 1865. The addition of silicate of soda is still practised by a few manufacturers, but the tendency is to eliminate 'it as far as possible and to minimize as much as possible the use of an alkaline watery solution to keep the paint in suspension. The general use of zinc oxid has had much to do with the progress of mixed paint, for it is well known that corroded white lead and linseed Oil settle quickly in the package, while zinc oxid keeps the heavier lead longer in suspension. Where only heavy materials are used, manufacturers are inclined to add up to 4 per cent Of water. Under another chapter on Water in the Composition of Mixed Paints, page 254, this subject will be fully discussed.

Excerpt from The Chemistry of Paints and Painting I have incorporated with the present issue the substance of the paragraphs which he introduced into my original text; these are indicated by the sign. In preparing the following pages for the press, I have to acknowledge, as on previous occasions, the help of several friends and correspondents. Amongst these I specially name Mr. J. Scott Taylor, many of whose suggestions have been incorporated in the text, and also Dr. A. P. Laurie, my successor in the chair of Chemistry in the Royal Academy of Arts. Of recent years the literature dealing with the subjects to which the present handbook is devoted has greatly increased. Several of the volumes named in my 'Bibliographical Notes' are of sterling merit and contain original material of no little importance. But I am bound to confess that I have met with several disappointments when searching for records of new facts in recent dictionary articles, reports of lectures, and treatises. On perusal a familiar note seemed sometimes to be struck; and I ultimately identified not a little of the material as my own. I will not dwell on this matter; it is indeed some consolation to feel that such transferences from my pages would not have taken place had not the paragraphs and tables and comments been deemed of some value.

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Chemistry of Paints This little work is the outcome of a series of lectures delivered to a class of Practical Painters and Decorators at the Darlington Technical College. The majority of the students could not be accused of possessing even a most elementary knowledge of chemistry, and further inquiries have shown that such is the condition of affairs amongst painters generally; although, of course, there are notable exceptions, which serve to prove the rule, as the saying is. The appreciation with which these lectures were received encouraged me to publish the same in book form, in the h0pe of appealing to a much larger circle, and of thus creating a wider interest in the subject. It is all very well to tell the youthful painter that cadmium yellow may not be tinted with white lead, and that it is unwise to mix together Prussian blue and lime but he is very liable to forget such rules until he has, learned their force by bitter experience. If, however, he is made to understand wiry these pigments are incompatibles, his interest is awakened, and the subject presents itself to him in an entirely new light. Now, this can only be done by a judicious inclusion of chemistry into the curriculum of the painter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Chemistry of Paints and Paint Vehicles The close connection between the facts treated in the first three chapters has made it impossible to separate them by very definite lines of demarca tion. This necessitates their overlapping, especially in the case of Chapters II and III. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
