02 MARKET ANALYSIS

02.01 Introduction

The paint industry in India is driven by consumption and growth

in both Decorative and Protective Segment.
The factors for growth of the market includes growth in real estate
construction, automotive industry, industrial sector and disposable
income and increased Government expenditure on
infrastructure. India is an emerging economy with a rising GDP
and the market is optimistic about its impact on the paint industry.
For new constructions, paint has become an integral component of
the development stage. The per capita consumption of paint in
India is about 2.6 kg against 10-13 kg globally. The low per capita
consumption of paints in India provides enough opportunity for
further growth in this sector.
The paints and coatings industry can be categorized into three
markets:
Decorative/ Architectural
Protective/Industrial
Special purpose coatings

Decorative coating is the largest segment followed by

protective/industrial coatings and special purpose coatings. The
protective/industrial coatings segment was driven by rise in
industrial production and automotive OEM sector.
Rapid urbanization and availability of easy housing loans have
become the prime drivers of growth in the decorative paint
segment, which comprises about 80% of the Indian Paint industry.

03.00 PROCESS DESCRIPTION

03.01 General

JSW propose to install a 200,000 klpa Paint Plant at Vijayanagar,

Ballari, Karnataka, in phases. The emulsions of 40,000 tpa shall be
used as raw material for Paint production within the plant itself.

Paint manufacturing is a process which aims at converting a wide

range of raw materials into a range of finished goods that meet
the sophisticated needs of customers. Making up the final
suspension or emulsion from predetermined ingredients is by itself
a simple operation, but the establishment of formulation ratios,
exact recipes and the choice of appropriate pigments, binders,
additives etc is a expertise of this business.

03.02 Major Constituents of Paint

Water based Decorative Paints are manufactured from four major

constituents; Pigments (5-15%), Emulsion (30-35%), Water (25 -
35%), Additives (3-5%) and Extenders (5-10%).

03.03 Types of Paint

03.03.01 Based on market utilization

(i) Water-based paints (80% of market), as the name
implies, are emulsions of paint ingredients dissolved mostly in
water as the major solvent. As a consequence, there is no
escape of organic and hence ecologically harmful fumes into
the atmosphere. The trend in western world is towards water-
based paints for environmental reasons and the same is being
targeted in Indian markets.

3-1
 JSW Paints Private Limited
200,000 KLPA Paint Plant Karnataka

Project Report

(ii) Solvent-based paints (20% of market) use of organic

solvents such as mineral turpentine (MTO) aromatics, ketones
etc for dissolving the different types of binders such as Alkyds,
vinylics, polyurethanes etc to give tough and high gloss
finishes.

03.03.02 Based on End-use

Paints tend to be classified into two broad groups in the market as

per their end use applications. These are:

(i) Decorative Paints which are mostly household paints used

for indoor and exterior wall, wood & metal finishing purposes.
They are based on various types of binders, essentially
synthetic polymers such as styrene acrylics, pure acrylics,
versatate blends, acetates and alkyds. These binders give
good film coverage in various types of paints including high
gloss and enamels.

(ii) Industrial Paints are pigmented liquids or powders that are

used to protect and/or beautify substrates. Industrial paints
are used in the aerospace, architectural and construction,
automotive, electrical and electronics industries. They are
also used in marine, medical, military, optical, pharmaceutical,
semiconductor, and textile applications. In India, the major
industrial paints are used for automotives and a good amount
of them are used for coil coatings.

03.04 Paint manufacturing Process

The key operation in paint making is the dispersion of fine

pigment particles into a liquid polymer binding medium, using

3-2
JSW Paints Private Limited
200,000 KLPA Paint Plant Karnataka

Project Report

high speed mixers or dissolvers which wet the pigments. A typical

process flowsheet for the paint plant has been shown in Drg. No.
JSW/VW/PR/004 and general layout of the paint plant has been
shown in Drg. No. JSW/VW/PR/005.

Making paint consists of following carefully, a series of systematic

procedures which have been described below :
1. Raw material testing and storage.
2. Weighing and transfer of appropriate raw materials into the
mill.
3. Dispersion / Grinding operation
4. Stabilizing the dispersion.
5. The dispersion is pumped into the blending / mixing tank.
6. Incorporation of other additives by mixing to a uniform state.
7. Tinting is carried out at this stage if required.
8. Samples are taken for colour evaluation and analysis of other
rheological properties of film.
9. Final check for viscosity, density etc is carried out. Eventual
addition of additives/water, and or driers if necessary to meet
viscosity and drying specifications.
10. Material is strained and filtered for filling into cans.
11. Product is gravimetrically or volumetrically filled into cans and
labelled.
12. Storage in warehouse & dispatch to customers.

The main general process steps in paint manufacturing

are as below:
a. Dispersion stage
b. Scaling up stage/sieving (Blending/Mixing to required specifications)
c. Quality Control stage

3-3
JSW Paints Private Limited
200,000 KLPA Paint Plant Karnataka

Project Report

d. Packaging and Shipping.

a) Dispersion Stage
This stage is the most essential and in fact determines the
paint quality. It should also be pointed out that pigment is
the most expensive paint component and is usually
introduced into a finished product system in the physical
state of dispersion.
A great deal of attention should be accorded to the
processing of dispersions in order to achieve maximum
pigment utilization, that is optimum hiding power (opacity)
and colour.

Dispersion is composed primarily of a combination of

pigment, binder and water. In addition to these three main
components, dispersion contains a fourth ingredient called
additives.

This dispersion process can be separated with three distinct

phases. In practice, these stages overlap and occur
simultaneously rather than strictly consecutively during the
dispersion process. These three phases are:

1. Wetting
2. Particle separation
3. Stabilization

Wetting involves replacement of the pigment air and

pigment moisture interface with the pigment resin
interface. Wetting can be accomplished by mixing which

3-4
JSW Paints Private Limited
200,000 KLPA Paint Plant Karnataka

Project Report

permits intimate physical contact between the exposed

pigments surface and the liquid media.

The particle separation phase involves the reduction of the

pigment particle size during the dispersion process.

Although the primary pigment particle size is either equal to

or more commonly below that size required to be achieved
during dispersion, therefore, the phase of dispersion process
is to accomplish reduction of agglomerate and aggregate
sizes. Ideally, this phase which can be called deagglomeration
or deaggregation separates the agglomerates and aggregates
completely into primary pigment particle during this stage.

The third phase of dispersion process is stabilization and it

involves the development and maintenance of a homogenous
distribution of pigment particles in the liquid media.
Subsequent to deagglomeration, particles could dump
together and form floe, floccules or flocculates. Thus, this is
the process of stabilization.

However, the dispersed raw materials (pigments, binder,

water and additives) are charged into the processing
equipment or better called dispersers and allowed to disperse
for a minimum of 45 minutes. For high viscosity range
required, 42% by wt of the total binder needed are employed
at this stage with 100% by wt of the total pigment needed
and 35% by wt of solvent.
A satisfactory dispersion is confirmed by the quality control
department after test.

Project Report

b) Sieving and Scaling Up Stage (Blending / Mixing to

required specifications)
Sieving involves the filtration of unused agglomerates thereby
allowing only the passage of pure paint.
The purpose of scaling up is to bring the paint to the required
standard, quality and workable viscosity. This is achieved by
adding the remaining resin, solvent/water and then the paint
additives and driers respectively into the paint slurry system.
The paint is then transferred to a storage tank inside the
production area.

c) Quality Control Stage

Quality control is an important parameter in paint production.
This is done in various stages of the process starting from
dispersion till final shipment.
This stage provides the desired end point. But before this, the
paint content from the dispersion section will be transferred
to the mixing machine through a tube. The mixing machine
or low-speed mill is fed by means of a pipe from the
dispersion container. Then, the binder and more bodying
elements are added. These agents will make up for
adjustments in volume and quality of paint, where
eventually if mix is too thick, it will be made less viscous by
adding a thinning agent.

In the quality control stage, along with the quality or

property, the degree of dispersion must be measured and
ascertained.

3-6
 JSW Paints Private Limited
200,000 KLPA Paint Plant Karnataka

Project Report

To measure degree of dispersion, either a fineness or tint

strength as a quality control test can be used. Fineness
method is the one extensively used by many paint factories.

d) Packaging and Shipping

From the storage tank, the paint is then packed and
subsequently shipped. All paint packaging materials must
form an effective barrier to skinning (oxidation drying of paint
at the wrong place and at the wrong time) moisture, dirt and
other micro-organism which might act on the paint. Hence,
paint products are packed in cans made of tins or they may
be packed in plastics made of P.V.C or polyethylene.

The common container sizes used in the paint industry range

from 200 litre drums to 20, 10, 4, and 1 litre, and then sub-
litre sizes of 500, 250 and 100 mls. The 20 and 10 litre sizes
are referred to as "drums" or "pails", and from 4 litres down
as "tins or "cans". Plastic containers are also used,
particularly for latex paints. Metallic containers need to have
their interiors coated.

03.05 Labelling of Paints

Successful marketing of paints depends to some extent on

presentation. Cans used for holding paints can thus be
lithographed with multiprint colours, or pasted with printed paper
material.

started and after attaining 78 deg C the sample is taken out and
checked for wetting. If wetting is good, Pre Emulsion addition is
continued for four hours by means of metering pump.

Digestion Stage: After Pre Emulsion addition, the catalyst is

added and digested for one hour at 80 deg C to remove Free
Monomers if any.

Additive Stage: After digestion, the batch is cooled to 40 deg C

and Additives such as defoamers and Preservatives/Terminators
are added. This is followed by pH adjustment using Neutralizers.
After Neutralization the batch is filtered using 80 mesh Filter cloth
and transferred to Emulsion Storage Tank.

Pigments form a large proportion of stored items because of the

variety of colours and types needed to make a comprehensive
range of modern surface coatings. Titanium dioxide is the major
base for white paints, and majority of paints are white.

To obtain non-white paints, other pigments are used. Mineral-

based inorganic, pigments such as iron oxide, ground to a
micronised opacity are added, giving stability to the total mixture.
Greater variation in colours can be obtained by using organic dyes
such as toluidene red dye, etc.

07 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

This chapter briefly outlines the nature and sources of pollution

and also suggests broad environmental protection measures to be
adopted for limiting pollution within permissible levels.

07.01 Nature of Pollution

The major wastes that the paint industry produces are empty
paper cartons, gunny bags, dust from air pollution control
equipment, off-specification paint, spills and sludge from
treatment plants. The disposal methods for the wastes are given
in subsequent sections.

07.02 Pollution Prevention and Control Measures

In consideration of the above stated pollution potential of the

paint plant, suitable mitigation schemes are envisaged in order to
control environmental pollution within the permissible norms and
keep the environment fairly clean.

Industrial waste management

During paint manufacturing process, various effluent streams will
be generated at various sources due to carry out manufacturing
activities. Effluent streams will be generated from paint
manufacturing process during activities such as cleaning of
mixers, equipment cleaning, calibration of vessels, cleaning of line
flushings barrels and containers etc. In addition to above, the
utility waste water streams viz. cooling tower blow down,
backwash of soft water plant will also be generated. There will not
be any effluent generated during reaction. The liquid effluent will
be treated in Effluent treatment plant.

Project Report

Other industrial wastes like process waste/ residue/ paint sludge

will be stored in designated place in factory premises and
disposed off through authorized TSDF as a land filling. In case the
contents of the packages are hazardous, their disposal will be
done carefully through TSDF or through authorized recycler.

Solid waste management

There are two types of solid wastes generated process wastes
and non process wastes, which may or may not be hazardous in
nature. There is no solid waste generation during manufacturing
process itself. The waste water from manufacturing process,
washings, etc. will get treated in the effluent treatment plant and
that will give rise to sludge. The other type of solid wastes
generated will include the dust collected from dust collectors,
empty barrels (metal and plastic), bags, sweepings and other
biodegradable waste from canteen. Solid waste of organic nature
such as canteen wastes, STP sludge, sweepings etc will be
composted or vermin composted for use as manure in the
greenbelt and lawns. Other non hazardous waste like empty
container, bags, paper/cardboard, metal , wooden waste etc will
be sold to external agency.
The hazardous waste will be disposed off through TSDF as a land
filling.

Project Report

recharge structures. Necessary provision of bye-pass and sluice

arrangements shall be made to ensure that the contaminated
water is being avoided to be diverted to these recharge
structures. The designs & the work will be undertaken by the
specialized agencies so that the objective of the rain water
harvesting is implemented in true spirit & due benefits are
accrued. Besides this, the following points will be also being taken
care of after commissioning of the plant:

All the storm water drains/ catchment area will be cleaned

prior to monsoon. Necessary repair/maintenance will be
carried out wherever required.
Before the onset of the monsoon all the catchment area
considered for recharge will be cleaned. The recharge
structures will be kept in operation during the monsoon
season only so as to avoid any contamination.
A mesh will be provided on the mouth of the inlet to discard
the debris entering into the recharge trenches. A sluice/
shutter will be provided to ensure that no water other than
rainwater is diverted to the recharge structures.
After the first rain the de-silting pit will be cleaned and
subsequently this will be repeated on the onset of next
monsoon.
Prior to monsoon season the top most layers in the pit will be
scrapped and replaced with the fresh & cleaned one, if
necessary.

07.07 Design Targets

The proposed pollution control measures would be designed on

the basis of the mandate set by MoEF.

Routine environmental monitoring of stack emission, ambient air

quality, work zone air quality, noise level and waste water
receiving area and surface water stream will have to be carried
out. The monitored data would be recorded and necessary
corrective measures implemented to ensure that design targets
are maintained and avoid any non-compliance of Statutory
Regulations. The guidelines & environment protection rules laid
down by MoEF shall be adhered to for the plant facilities.

07.08 Plant safety

Plant safety measures would form an integral part of the

environment protection plan of the proposed plant. Workers
safety would be of highest degree of concern so as to avoid any
form of personal injury or untoward accident. In-build safety
features of the plant and machinery would be made adequate in
order to avoid hazardous events causing damage to the life and
property.

07.09 Greenbelt

About 33 % of green belt would be created for gardening and tree

plantations. This would prevent the fugitive dust emissions.
Unpaved areas, if any, within the plant boundary would be
provided with grass cover.
This would not only act as lung space but would also improve the
plant aesthetics.
