This combination of academic qualification and hands-on production experience is what distinguishes a paint technology consultant from a purely theoretical advisor.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifications do IPCS paint technologists hold?

Founder Krishna Gupta holds M.Sc Chemistry (Honours) and PG Diploma in Paints & Coating Technology — backed by 18+ years of hands-on factory production experience.

What paint testing does IPCS set up in a factory?

Viscosity (KU viscometer), pH (pH meter), fineness of grind (Hegman gauge), contrast ratio/opacity (Leneta chart), dry time, weight per litre (SG cup) and scrub resistance (per IS 101). Basic QC lab cost: ₹25,000–75,000.

Can IPCS help with formula optimization to reduce cost?

Yes — identifying lower-cost substitute raw materials, reducing additive over-dosing, optimizing TiO2 usage with co-hiding extenders. Target: 15–30% raw material cost reduction.

What is fineness of grind (FOG)?

FOG (Hegman gauge, 0–8 scale) measures pigment dispersion quality. Interior emulsion: Hegman 4–5. Exterior/premium: 5–6. Poor fineness causes grit, reduced gloss and colour inconsistency.

Can IPCS train our production staff?

Yes — hands-on factory-floor training on batch procedure execution, HSD operation, QC instrument use, batch record completion and reject identification. Not just classroom theory.

How does IPCS help with QC system setup?

IPCS: (1) Specifies minimum instrument set; (2) Defines accept/reject targets for each product; (3) Creates batch record format; (4) Designs in-process check schedule; (5) Trains staff; (6) Provides corrective action guide.

What is KU viscosity?

KU (Krebs Units) is the standard viscosity measurement for architectural paint. Target for interior emulsion: 90–110 KU at 25°C. Exterior: 100–120 KU. IPCS formula includes KU targets and thickener adjustment guidelines.

Can IPCS help develop products for export?

Yes — IPCS has experience with ASTM, BS, DIN alongside Indian IS standards. For export-market product development, IPCS targets specific international QC parameters and regulatory requirements.

What is contrast ratio in paint?

Contrast ratio (opacity) = reflectance over black / reflectance over white surface. Standard interior emulsion: minimum 95% (economy) to 98%+ (premium). Measured using Leneta hiding power chart.

Does IPCS provide paint technology training courses?

IPCS provides practical training as part of plant setup and formula engagements — at your factory, on your machines and formula. This ensures your team learns in actual production conditions.
