Description

Any of several water miscible polymer paints. Liquitex acrylic paints were first marketed in 1954 using Rhoplex AC-34 as a base polymer. By 1963, several brand acrylic emulsions came on the market, such as Shiva, Liquitex, Hyplar Acrylic Colors, Aqua-tec, Politec, and Cryla. Vinyl resins, such as Polyvinyl acetate, have also been used to prepare water-based emulsion paints, such as Hyplar Artists' Colors and Flashe. Polymer colors dry quickly to form a tough film with brilliant colors.
