Effects of dehumidification drying environment on drying speed of one component waterborne wood top coating

摘要

In this study, the effects of dehumidification drying environment including air temperature and relative humidity and velocity on drying speed of one component waterborne wood top coating are studied by Orthogonal experimental design and the results are analyzed creatively by Duncan analyses. It is found that during the dehumidification drying process, hard drying time is decreasing with the increasing air temperature and velocity and decreasing relative humidity. Air velocity is extremely significant to hard drying time, which is more significant than relative humidity, and relative humidity is more significant than air temperature. The difference of hard drying time is significant when the difference is 5 min and above, and it is extremely significant when the difference is 10 min and above, which are critical to judge the hard time in practice.
