Physical properties of sodium silicate-based substances make them very attractive for commercial/industrial use. Liquids and solids based on sodium silicate and produced by PQ Corporation have a density from 1.6g/cubic cm. to about 1.4 g/cubic cm.
A very big difference between acrylic and oil paint is the drying time. Acrylics dry in a matter of minutes to hours and oils dry in a matter of hours to weeks! This is a huge factor when choosing whether or not to choose oils versus acrylics.
The technical difference is that oil-based paint has a non-water-soluble base to it, and water-based (latex) paints have a water-soluble base to them.(Latex cleans with w â¦ ater, Oil does not.) The practical differences are pretty severe.egardless of the color, oil-based paints use solvent, normally mineral spirits, as a solvent Vs. water for water-based and oil-based paints dry harder than latex paints makin â¦ g them more scrubable.
