A STUDY OF DRIERS AND THEIR EFFECT
The proper drying of oils and their behavior with various siccatives in
varying quantity is an interesting problem, and obviously of
considerable importance from a practical standpoint. Unfortunately there
is a decided scarcity of reliable literature dealing with the subject
for the guidance of those concerned in the manufacture or application of
siccative products. Furthermore, when the problem is investigated, it is
not difficult to see why this is so.
=Uniform Conditions.= At a glance it is evident that a decided obstacle
in experimentation on the drying properties of oils is the difficulty in
obtaining identical conditions for comparative purposes. Inasmuch as a
multitude of factors, such as uniformity and homogeneity of the driers
and the oils themselves, intensity and source of light, temperature,
uniformity of application, and many others, play a decisive part in the
siccative tendencies of oils, the resources and ingenuity of the chemist
engaged in the research are severely taxed.
=Oxygen Absorption.= It is a well-known fact that linseed oil, when
applied to a clean surface, such as a glass plate, will undergo
oxidation and take up oxygen to the extent of about 16%, forming a hard,
elastic, non-sticky product which has been called linoxyn. This
material, unlike the oil from which it has been formed, is insoluble in
most solvents. Other oils, such as cottonseed, hemp, rape, olive, etc.,
are more fully satisfied in nature and have not the power to absorb the
amount of oxygen taken up by linseed oil.
In carrying out the following tests, on the drying of oils, a quantity
of pure linseed oil of the following analysis was secured:
Specific gravity at 15 deg. C. 0.934
Acid number 5
Saponification number 191-1/2
Iodine number 188
This oil was distributed into a number of 8-oz. oil sample bottles, and
to a series of these bottles was added varying quantities of a very
concentrated drier made by boiling oil to 400 degrees Fahrenheit in an
open kettle, with the subsequent addition of lead oxide. The amount of
drier added to each bottle varied according to the percentage desired;
being calculated on the lead content of the drier, which was very
accurately determined by analysis.
There was secured in this manner a series of oils containing varying
amounts of lead oxide, and from this lot was selected a certain number
of samples which would be representative and typical of paint vehicles
now found in the market.
Another series of tests were made by combining with a large number of
samples of pure linseed oil as used above, various percentages of a
manganese drier made by boiling oil at 400 deg. F. and incorporating
therewith manganese dioxide.
Still another series of tests were made upon a number of oils into which
were incorporated various small quantities of lead oxide and manganese
oxide together, using the standard driers made in the above manner, all
of which were carefully analyzed to determine their contents.
In view of the errors in manipulation that could occur where so many
tests were made, it was not deemed advisable, in carrying out the tests,
to use glass plates on which only a minute quantity of oil could be
maintained. A much better solution of the difficulty presented itself in
using a series of small, round, crimped-edge tin plates, about three
inches in diameter, such as are used for lids of friction-top cans.
With paints it is impossible to secure films as thin as those presented
by layers of oil on glass, nor would it be desirable to secure films of
this same relative thickness. For this reason an endeavor was made to
conduct the following tests with films of the same relative thickness as
that possessed by the average coating of paint. The drying of the films
did not take place in the same short period, nor in the same ratio, as
with the thin layer that is secured by flowing oil upon glass. The
results, however, are more practical, and of greater value to the
manufacturer.
The cans were carefully numbered in consecutive order, corresponding to
the numbers on the various samples of oil. A very small quantity of oil
was placed in each of the can covers, which were previously weighed, and
allowed to distribute itself over the bottom surface thereof. Reweighing
of the covers gave the amount of oil which was taken for each test. The
test samples in the covers were all placed in a large box with glass
sides, having a series of perforated shelves. In the side of this box is
an opening through which a tube was passed, carrying a continual current
of air washed and dried in sulphuric acid. Oxidation of the oil films
commenced at once, and the amount of oxygen absorbed was determined at
suitable periods by weighing, the increase in weight giving this factor.
This test was kept up for a period of twenty days.
A test was also made in the same manner with a current of damp air
passing into the box, to observe the relative oxidation under such
conditions. A chart of the results obtained has been made (Table VI), to
show the effect of the various driers.
=Results of Tests.= The following outline will present to the mind of
the reader the most salient points which have been gleaned from these
experiments, and which should give the manufacturer definite knowledge
as to the best percentage of oxides to use either in boiled oil, paints
or varnishes.
In the case of lead oxide, an increase in the percentage of lead oxide
in the oil causes a relative increase in the oxygen absorption, but when
a very large percentage of lead has been added, the film of oil dries to
a leathery skin.
In the case of manganese oxide, the increase in oxygen absorption on the
first day is much more pronounced than is the case with lead oxides.
Furthermore, the oxidation of manganese oils seems to be relative to the
increase in manganese up to a certain period, when the reverse of this
law seems to take place, and beyond a certain definite percentage of
manganese, added percentages seem to be of no value. It was furthermore
observed that the films dry to a more brittle and harder skin than is
the case when lead oxide is used. The oxygen absorption with oils high
in manganese has been noticed to be excessive, and the film of oil
becomes surface-coated, drying beneath in a very slow manner; a
condition that often leads to checking. The critical percentage where
the amount of manganese appears to give the greatest efficiency seems to
be 0.02%. This critical percentage, as it may be termed, should not be
exceeded, and any added amount of manganese has the effect of making the
film much more brittle and causes the so-called "burning up" of the
paint. The loading of paint with drier and the bad result therefrom may
be explained to some extent from the above results.

In the same way with lead driers, excessive amounts of lead oxide seem
to have no beneficial effects on the drying of an oil, and when the
percentage which seems to be the most beneficial, namely 0.5% lead
oxide, is exceeded, the film is apt to become brittle.
Oils containing lead oxide driers are less influenced in their drying
tendencies by conditions of moisture in the atmosphere than oils
containing manganese, but frequently, however, the former dry much
better in a dry atmosphere. As a general rule, varnishes rich in
manganese dry more quickly in a dry atmosphere, while those containing
small quantities dry more quickly in a damp atmosphere.
=Volatile Products Formed.= It was furthermore noticed in these tests
that sulphuric acid, placed in dishes on the bottom of the large box in
which the samples of oil were drying, was discolored and turned brown
after several days, showing that the acid had taken up some material of
a volatile nature that was a product of the oxidation.
Another curious feature of these tests was the development of a peculiar
aromatic odor which was given off by the oils upon drying in dry air.
When the oils were dried in moist air, a rank odor resembling propionic
acid was observed, and this led the observer to believe that a reaction
was effected by the absorbed oxygen, that caused the glycerin combined
with the linoleic acid as linolein to split up into evil-smelling
compounds. It has been suggested that the oxygen first attacks the
glycerin, transforming it into carbonic acid, water, and other volatile
compounds, which are eliminated before the oil is dried to linoxyn.
Toch,[3] however, has shown that the drying of linseed oil gives off
only very small percentages of carbon dioxide. Mulder has observed that
in the process of linseed oil being oxidized, glycerin is set free,
which becomes oxidized to formic, acetic, and other acids, while the
acid radicals are converted by oxygen into the anhydrides, from which
they pass by further oxidation into linoxyn.
[3] Toch: The Chem. and Tech. of Mixed Paints, p. 89. D. Van Vostand
Co., N. Y.
=Auto-Oxidation of Oil.= The theory of auto-oxidation of linseed oil has
been very ably treated by Blackler, whose experiments indicated that
during the drying process the slow absorption of oxygen was, at a
critical period, followed by a rapid absorption, which he attributes to
the presence of peroxides. The materials produced by this peroxide
formation may act as catalyzers and accelerate the formation of more
peroxide. Lead and manganese oxides may also be oxidized to peroxides by
the action of oxygen, and in this event might act as very active
catalyzing agents or carriers of oxygen. Blackler's statement, that the
presence of driers do not increase, but have a tendency to decrease the
initial velocity of oxygen absorption, has been confirmed by these
experiments, but it has been noticed throughout the tests that the
driers have an accelerative action at a later period.
=Effect of Metals on Drying of Oils.= Some most interesting results were
secured by dipping extremely fine copper gauze into linseed oil, and
then suspending the gauze in the air. The adhesion of the oil to the
copper caused the formation of films between the network, and remarkable
drying action was observed. The copper or any superficial coating of
copper oxide which may have been present on the metal, undoubtedly
affected the result to some extent. It has been found that metallic lead
is even more efficient than copper in this respect, but this may be due
to the action of free acid in the linseed oil, forming lead linoleates,
products that greatly accelerate drying. Another interesting experiment
was made by immersing pieces of gauze cloth in linseed oil. After the
excess oil had been removed, by pressing, the cloth was again weighed to
determine the amount of oil used for the experiment. The increase in
oxygen absorption in this case was very rapid, and the result obtained
confirmed the results in the other experiments.
In order to secure a more evenly distributed state of the oil, tests
were conducted by saturating pieces of stiff blotting papers, and, after
exposure, weighing as usual.
=Influence of Light.= The influence of light on the drying of oils is
unquestionably a potent one. The practical painter knows that a certain
varnish will dry quicker when exposed to the light than when in the
dark.
Chevreul was one of the first pioneers in this field of research to
observe the effects of colored lights on drying, and he claimed that oil
exposed under white glass dried more rapidly than when exposed under red
glass, which eliminates all light of short wave lengths.
Genthe obtained interesting results in the drying of oil submitted to
the effect of the mercury lamp. Oxidation without driers was effected
probably through the formation of peroxides. In commenting on this
subject, Blackler[4] gives a description of the use of the Uveol Lamp,
which is similar to the mercury lamp, but has, instead of a glass casing
which cuts off the valuable rays, a fused-quartz casing which allows
their passage.

London, Sept. 9, 1909.
=Driers in Boiled Oil.= In the boiling of linseed oil, by certain
processes the oil is heated to 250 deg. F. and manganese resinate is
incorporated therein. It goes into solution quite rapidly. In other
processes the oil is heated to 400 deg. F. or over, and manganese as an
oxide is boiled into the oil. Although it is unsafe to say that a small
percentage of rosin, such as would be introduced by the use of resinate
driers, is not harmful, yet it appears that this process should give a
good oil, inasmuch as it has been found that no matter whether the
manganese is added to the oil, as a resinate, borate or oxide,
practically the same drying effect is noticed in every case where the
percentage of manganese is the same. It is the opinion of some, however,
that the resinate driers are not as well suited for durability as oxide
driers. However, if a boiled oil is found to contain on analysis a small
percentage of rosin less than 0.5% or a percentage only sufficient to
combine with the metal present, it should not be suspected of
adulteration. Practical tests should be made with such oil along with an
oil made with an oxide drier, before pronouncing on their relative
values. Inasmuch as the addition of certain driers to linseed oil
lessens the durability of the film, it is more practical to use the
smallest amount of drier that will serve the purpose desired, that is,
set the oil up to a hard condition which will not take dust and which
will stand abrasion.
The results of this investigation would indicate that when lead or
manganese linoleates are used, the most efficient drying is shown with
0.5% lead or with 0.02% manganese, or with a combination of 0.5% lead
and 0.02% manganese.
Until more definite results have been obtained with the _tungates_,
which will probably prove of exceptional interest as driers, the above
driers will probably be used to the greatest extent.
=Co-operative Drying Tests.= A series of important drying tests made by
members of a special committee[5] appointed by the American Society for
Testing Materials, of which the writer was chairman, is herewith shown:
[5] Sub-Committee C of Committee D-1, on Testing Paint Vehicles. Proc.
Amer. Soc. for Test. Mater., 1911.
"At the January meeting of Committee D-1, a sub-committee consisting of
the following members was appointed to investigate paint vehicles:
G. B. Heckel,
Glenn H. Pickard,
Allen Rogers,
A. H. Sabin,
H. A. Gardner, _Chairman_.
"At a subsequent meeting of the sub-committee it was determined to start
the investigations with a series of tests on certain drying,
semi-drying, and non-drying oils, determining their drying values, rate
of oxygen absorption, etc., when spread out in thin films. A quantity of
the following oils was selected for the tests and subsequently secured
from sources known to be reliable:
Lead and manganese linoleate drier.[6]
Lithographic linseed oil.
Boiled linseed oil (resinate type).
Boiled linseed oil (linoleate type).
Blown linseed oil (containing drier while being blown).
Heavy mineral oil.
Rosin oil.
Soya bean oil.
Corn oil.
Cottonseed oil.
Sunflower oil.
Menhaden oil.
Chinese wood oil, raw.
Chinese wood oil, treated.
Perilla oil.[7]
Lumbang oil.[7]
Dry rosin 20%, boiled in 80% linseed oil.
[6] The drier used, upon analysis, showed the presence of 4.36% PbO
and 2.51% MnO_{2}.
[7] The lumbang and perilla oils were imported and arrived subsequent
to the starting of the tests. They were therefore not included in
the tests.
"Four-ounce sample bottles of each oil were sent to the Committee
members, with the request to proceed with the tests along the lines
agreed upon at the Committee meeting. The instructions for making these
tests are outlined as follows:
(_a_) A series of small glass plates, approximately 5 by 7 ins., are to
be prepared by each member of the Committee. These plates are to be
thoroughly cleaned and carefully numbered and weighed upon a chemical
balance. The oils to be used for the tests are to be numbered
corresponding to the plates. A test of each oil is to be made by
painting it upon the surface of a glass plate with a camel's-hair brush,
subsequently weighing the plate and the oil. These tests are to be
exposed under constant conditions of temperature, if possible, for three
weeks' time, making weighings of each plate every day for six days and
then every other day for twelve days.
(_b_) Another series of tests shall be made, in which 80% of raw linseed
oil is to be combined with each of the above oils named. Previous to
making any of the tests, _there should be added to each oil, or to each
combination, 5% of a drier containing lead and manganese_. The drier to
be used is of the standard grade submitted, together with the oil
samples. The results of the tests are to be charted and submitted at the
end of the tests, so that they may be compared with the results obtained
by each member of the Committee.
(_c_) If possible, the oils and mixture of oils used in the above tests
are to be ground with pure silica and painted out upon sized paper,
three-coat work, the films to be stripped and tested for strength upon a
paint filmometer, at two periods two months apart."
The drying of oils to a firm surface when spread in a thin layer is
accompanied by an increase in weight, due to the absorption of oxygen.
The percentage of oxygen absorbed often affords a criterion of the
drying of the oil under examination, and this factor, together with data
regarding the appearance of the oil film, should be taken into
consideration when judging the value of an oil or oil mixture.
Conditions of light, air, temperature, etc., often cause great
variations in the drying of oils and the percentage of oxygen absorbed,
as shown by the results obtained in the following tests. Although it was
impossible in these tests to have the conditions under which each
experimenter worked parallel in nature, the tests afford nevertheless
considerable information for guiding future work of a similar nature.
An examination of the results obtained showed generally that the
greatest increase in weight occurred during the period in which the oil
dried up to a firm film. This occurred in most cases within 48 hours.
After this period a slight increase in weight was often noticed, and
then a more or less steady decline, varying with the oil examined. Had
the oil tests been continued for a greater length of time, a much
greater loss might have been observed.
It was impossible to include in the tests the oil-silica film work, on
account of lack of time. It is believed, however, that these tests
should be conducted, as they would throw much light on the elasticity
and strength given to paint films by various oils.
