Pigments for Synthetic
Resins
Industrial research has developed synthetic binders such as vinyl or acrylic polymer resins which are now used extensively in artists' paints. Some of these new binders have pronounced chemical characteristics [for example, emulsions of the acrylic resins are quite alkaline] that may limit the list of pigments used in these techniques.
