Paint Fineness Unit

The fineness unit of coatings refers to the measurement unit for the size of pigment particles in coatings, typically expressed in micrometers or Hegman fineness. It is measured using a grind gauge, where the scale of particle traces appearing on the scraper plate reflects the uniformity of the coating dispersion. This is used to control the hiding power, gloss, and stability of coatings, and it is applied in quality testing during the production of paints and inks.
Selection
The selection of the fineness unit for coatings should consider the type of coating and application requirements. Water-based coatings commonly use the micron unit, while solvent-based coatings may opt for the Hegman unit. Determine the fineness range based on the coating thickness and desired surface effect, with thin coatings requiring smaller fineness values. Refer to industry standards such as GB/T 1724 and consider the dispersion capability of production equipment when selecting the corresponding measurement tool.
