         Research and Development
Driven by strong technological focus, Bombay Paints is continuously striving for latest developments in the paint technology. It places a strong emphasis on its in-house research and developments, creating new opportunities by effectively harnessing indigenous creativity. With its team of 20 highly qualified scientists, Bombay Paints Limited has been responsible for creating a whole new category of paints with many ‘firsts’ to its credit.
It was the first Company in the paint industry, to be recognized for its R&D activities, by the department of science technology, government of India, in the year 1969.
Bombay Paints Limited was also the first indigenous paint manufacturer to be certified as approved suppliers of heavy duty marine coatings for off-shore structures being fabricated in India for Oil and Natural Gas Commission.

The Company maintains two research departments for its Paints division.
The departments are headed by senior, highly qualified research scientists, possessing considerable experience in their respective fields, supported by a modern instrumentation laboratory.
One of the research departments carries out research work on the development of resins and polymers on a conceptual basis, relating to the functionality and molecular structure of the raw materials. Some of the resins developed are:

  1. Epoxy Resins
  2. Epoxy Ethers modified with Vinyl Monomers
  3. Polyamides and Polyamide Adducts
  4. Hydroxy Functional Polymers such as Acrylic Polyols
  5. Iso-Cyanate Prepolymers (Aliphatic and Aromatic) for curing Hydroxy Functional Polymers.
  6. Polyester and Hydroxy functional Acrylic Alkyds
  7. Amino Resins
  8. Acrylic Resins for Paints to be used on Plastic Substrates
  9. Modification of Coal Tar with Phenolic Resins
  10. Polyurethane Systems based on Aliphatic/Aromatic Iso-Cyanate Prepolymer
  11. Moisture cured Polyurethane

New Processes developed

  1. Polyamide developed
  2. Vinyl Modified Alkyd Resins
  3. Thixotropic Agents
The other research department is concerned with the development of paints. It is engaged in applied research and also indigenisation of adapted technologies.
Provide an additional support for the various branches of Polymer technology and other diversification programmes planned to be undertaken in the near future.
