Thermoplastic mechanisms include drying and coalescence. Drying refers to simply evaporating the solvent or thinner to leave a coherent film behind. Coalescence refers to a mechanism that involves drying followed by actual interpenetration and fusion of formerly discrete particles. Thermoplastic film-forming mechanisms are sometimes described as "thermoplastic cure," but that is a misnomer because no chemical curing reactions are required to knit the film. On the other hand, thermosetting mechanisms are true curing mechanisms involving chemical reaction(s) among the polymers that make up the binder.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Thermoplastic_Mechanisms">Thermoplastic Mechanisms</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Paint&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Thermoplastic Mechanisms"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Some films are formed by simply cooling the binder. For example, <a href="/wiki/Encaustic_painting" title="Encaustic painting">encaustic</a> or <a href="/wiki/Wax" title="Wax">wax</a> paints are liquid when warm, and harden upon cooling. In many cases, they re-soften or liquify if reheated. </p><p>Paints that dry by solvent evaporation and contain the solid binder dissolved in a solvent are known as <a href="/wiki/Lacquer" title="Lacquer">lacquers</a>. A solid film forms when the solvent evaporates. Because no chemical crosslinking is involved, the film can re-dissolve in solvent; lacquers are unsuitable for applications where chemical resistance is important.
