<![CDATA[The purpose of this research were to study the effect of the Emulsifier and adhesive concentration on the quality of wall paint by using kaolin raw materials, to support the maximum utilization of mineral resources potentials and to diversify other products of Kaolin. This study was prepared by Completely Randomized Design (CRD) arranged as factorial and consists of two factors, namely: A. The concentration of emulsifier sodium silicate (A1 = 10%; A2 = 15%; A3 = 20%) and B. The concentration of polyvinyl acetate adhesive (B1 = 10%; B2 = 15%). Quality analysis is conducted qualitatively (nature of the review, resistance to alkali, resistance to temperature). The results showed the concentration of total solids adhesives affects the paint. Specific gravity wall paint made is 1:41 to 1:59, total solids between 50,37 to 54,82 %, 5-micron fineness, time to dry for about 30 – 50 minutes. Parameters tested quantitatively and qualitatively meet the requirements of SNI 3564 – 2014 wall paint emulsion and resistant to alkali and weather as well as easy-to-apply around. Keywords : kaolin, wall paint, emulsifier, polyvinyl acetateABSTRAKΤujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mempelajari pengaruh konsentrasi Emulifier dan perekat terhadap mutu cat tembok dengan bahan baku kaolin, menunjang pemanfaatan sebagai potensi sumber daya mineral secara maksimal serta diversifikasi produk dari kaolin. Penelitian ini disusun dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yang disusun secara faktorial dan terdari dari 2 faktor yaitu: A. Konsentrasi emulsifier natrium silikat (A1 = 10%; A2 = 15%; A3 = 20%) dan B. Konsentrasi perekat polifinil asetat (B1 = 10%; B2 = 15%). Analisis mutu dilakukan secara kualitatif (sifat pengulasan, ketahanan terhadap alkali, ketahanan terhadap suhu) dan kuantitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjuan konsentrasi perekat berpengaruh terhadap padatan total cat tembok. Berat jenis cat tembok yang dibuat adalah 1:41 – 1:59, padatan total antara 50,37 – 54,82 %, kehalusan -50 mikron, waktu mengering sekitar 30 – 50 menit. Parameter yang diuji secara kuantitatif dan kualitatif memenuhi persyaratan SNI:3564 – 2014 Cat tembok emulsi dan tahan terhadap alkali dan cuaca serta mudah diulaskan. Kata kunci : kaolin, cat tembok, emulsifier, polivinil acetat]]>
