Abstract:
A composition includes a first filler in amounts of at least 50% based on the total composition weight and an optional second filler. Other components of the decorative composition include a polymeric resin, a coalescent solvent and water. This composition is substantially free of stucco, cement or other hydraulic component where the setting action would act as the binder for the composition. It is useful for creating textures on the surface of interior walls or ceilings.
Abstract:
A fibrous mat-faced cementitious article comprising (a) a cementitious core, and (b) a first fibrous mat comprising polymer or mineral fibers and a hydrophobic finish on at least one surface thereof, wherein the hydrophobic finish is in contact with the cementitious core, and a method of preparing a fibrous mat-faced cementitious article, as well as a method of preparing a water-resistant cementitious article comprising (a) preparing an aqueous siloxane dispersion, wherein the dispersion comprises about 4 wt.% to about 8 wt.% siloxane, (b) combining the siloxane dispersion with a cementitious mixture to provide a cementitious slurry, (c) depositing the cementitious slurry onto a substrate, and (d) allowing the cementitious slurry to harden, thereby providing a cementitious article.
