Hello, I like to know when the first water based (acryl based) lacquers have been employed. A search on Goggle gives me a site where the plastic polymers where developed since 1862 for cellulose & celluloid, 1909 for bakelite , but polystyrene , acryl polymers and vinyl polychorure PVA ?), have been developed since the 30's (Nylon : 1928) polyurethane's (P.U) , polyester and epoxy beginning in the 40's. Id like to understand the chances of US made pianos (1940 )to be using water based lacquer for soundboards. Does someone have this information , I also like to understand what should mean "DD based lacquer" (talking about a Bosendorfer grand from the 70's) Who is using water based lacquer on soundboard, what are the results, is the film hard and thin ? Thanks to all chemical minded people. ------------------------------------ Isaac OLEG accordeur - reparateur - concert oleg-i@noos.fr 19 rue Jules Ferry 94400 VITRY sur SEINE tel: 033 01 47 18 06 98 fax: 33 01 47 18 06 90 mobile: 033 06 60 42 58 77 ------------------------------------ > -----Message d'origine----- > De : pianotech-bounces@ptg.org > [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org]De la > part de Richard Brekne > Envoye : mardi 11 novembre 2003 09:09 > A : Pianotech > Objet : Re: Steel/Jig Strength > > > Grin.... > > > > > ....
