Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a blend of comprising an aqueous dispersion of polymer particles, a PMHS, an opacifying pigment, and an extender. The blend of the present invention is useful in exterior paint applications, especially where retention of color in the painted substrate is important.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides for a coating formulation that includes a pigment, an organic aqueous emulsion and an organophosphonic acid of the formula: where R is a saturated or unsaturated alkyl having 2 to 10 carbon atoms or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl having 5 to 10 carbon atoms. The coating formulation can be used in forming a topcoat in an exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS). The present disclosure also provides for a method of forming a topcoat on a surface of the EIFS that helps to protect the underlayment of the EIFS against both weathering and moisture while helping to maintain color retention.
Abstract:
The present invention provides low tack, low temperature flexible aqueous caulk or sealant compositions comprising multistage aqueous emulsion copolymers having a hard stage and a soft stage, the soft stage including, in copolymerized form, one or more nonionic monomers and (i) methacrylic acid (MAA) or a salt thereof and a second acid monomer having a lower pKa than methacrylic acid or a salt thereof, or (ii) a copolymer having a mixture of acid or salt groups and hydroxyl groups, the acid groups chosen from, in copolymerized form, MAA and the second acid monomer, or salts thereof; and the hard stage having a weight average molecular weight (Mw) by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) against polystyrene standards of from 20,000 to 70,000.
