  Abstract
  Due to the upcoming legislation on VOC in 2010 the use of volatile compounds in Decorative paints will be further limited. This urges to develop new ways in formulating coatings. One way of achieving a lower VOC level is to make use of so-called reactive diluents. In contrast to normal solvents these diluents remain in the paint film and react with the alkyd binder. In this lecture the prerequisites for a good reactive binder are addressed. Moreover, the development of a suitable Reactive Diluent, matching these prerequisites is described. A special category of so-called Knoevenagel adducts, shows excellent performance. This performance is presented here. Also the effects of these diluents in the paint and paint film are described.
