Defined as a group of emulsions, paint consists of pigments suspended in a liquid medium used as a decorative or protective coating. Contemporary paints and coatings consist of countless chemical compounds uniquely formulated to fulfill the varied requirements of hundreds of thousands of applications. "Paint" ranges from the broad group of environmentally-sound latex paints used by consumers to decorate and protect their homes, translucent coatings that line the interior of food containers, to the chemically-complex, multi-component finishes that automobile manufacturers apply to car bodies on the assembly line.
