In paint formulations, the dispersion process is of vital importance, which is why this research evaluated the possibility of implementing the technique slurry and pigment concentrate in the traditional way of manufacturing latex-type paints of the premium line (satin and exterior), and partially eliminate the dispersion stage, maintaining the physicochemical characteristics according to Venezuelan COVENIN standards. For this, three types of slurries were used; I: Aqueous dispersion of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), magnesium silicate (MgSiO3) and Kaolin (Al2Si2O5 (OH)4), II: Aqueous dispersion of CaCO3, III: Aqueous dispersion of CaCO3 and Kaolin. Likewise, in the pigment concentrates, two types of aqueous dispersion of titanium dioxide (TiO2) of medium and high dispersibility were used.
