Abstract

A formulation contains an anionically stabilized dispersion of polymer particles, a polymeric polyamine and an inorganic filler has a pH in a range of 6.0 to 8.5, viscosity greater than 15000 centipoise, and is free of volatile base, aminosilanes, and quaternary poly(allylamine).

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A formulation comprising in a single formulation the following three components: an anionically stabilized dispersion of polymer particles, a polymeric polyamine and a inorganic filler wherein:
(a) the polymer particles of the anionically stabilized dispersion are present at a concentration of 28 weight-percent or more and at the same time 45 weight-percent or less based on total weight of the formulation as determined according to ASTM E1131-08;
(b) the polymer particles of the anionically stabilized dispersion comprise polymers selected from a group consisting of (meth)acrylic polymers and styrene-acrylic copolymers; the polymers containing on average
(i) 0.7 weight-percent or more and 5.0 weight-percent or less polymerized acrylic acid based on total weight of all monomers in the polymer; and
(ii) 0.1 weight-percent or more and 5.0 weight-percent or less of polymerized acid other than acrylic acid based on total weight of all monomer in the polymer;

(c) the polymer particles of the anionically stabilized dispersion
(i) have an average particle size of 200 nanometer or more and 600 nanometer or less as determined by 90-degree light scattering using a Malvern Zetasizer Nano ZS90; and
(ii) have an average glass transition temperature of −55 degrees Celsius or more and 20 degrees Celsius or less as determined according to ASTM E-1356-08;

(d) the concentration of polymeric polyamine is 0.05 weight-percent or more and less than 1.0 weight-percent based on total weight of polymer in the formulation as determined by pyrolysis headspace gas chromatography;
(e) the inorganic filler concentration is 10 volume-percent or more and 45 volume-percent or less based on total volume of the formulation as determined by ASTM method D5201-05a;
(f) the formulation is 60 volume-percent or more and 70 volume-percent or less solids as determined by ASTM D5201-05a;
(g) the formulation has a viscosity greater than 15000 centipoise; and

wherein, if the formulation comprises a rheology modifier thickener, the rheology modifier is a nonionic volume exclusion thickener;
wherein the anionic stabilized dispersion of polymer particles is free of aminosilanes;
wherein the formulation contains less than 500 weight parts per million weight parts volatile base relative to total formulation weight and is free of quaternary poly(allylamine);
wherein the formulation has a pH of 6.0 or higher and 8.5 or lower as determined by ASTM E-70; and
wherein viscosity values are determined using a Brookfield viscometer model DV-I+ at 5 revolutions per minute using a Helipath Spindle E at 22 degrees Celsius.

2. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the polymerized acid other than acrylic acid in the polymer of the dispersed polymer particles is one or any combination of more than one selected from a group consisting of methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, phosphoethyl methacrylate and phosphate esters of polyethylene glycol monomethacrylate.

3. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the polymeric polyamine is any one or any combination of more than one selected from a group consisting of poly-oxazolidineoethylmethacrylate, poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate), poly(2-aminoethyl methacrylate), polyethyleneimine, and polymeric aminosiloxanes.

4. The formulation of claim 3 , wherein the polymeric polyamine is selected from a group consisting of poly(oxazolidinoethyl methacrylate), branched polyethyleneimine, poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate), poly(aminoethyl aminopropyl siloxane) and poly(2-aminoethyl methacrylate).

5. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the inorganic filler is one or any combination of more than one material selected from a group consisting of metal oxides, calcium carbonate and sodium-potassium alumina silicates.

6. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the formulation further comprises a rheology modifier selected from a group consisting of hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, and polyvinylpyrrolidone.

7. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the formulation further comprises a rheology modify at a concentration of more than 0 weight-percent and at 1.0 wt % or less based on total weight of the formulation.

8. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the pH of the formulation is less than 7.5 as determined by ASTM E-70.

9. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the formulation is free of polyimine.

10. The formulation of claim 1 , wherein the polymeric polyamine contains 4.0 or more amine functional groups per hydroxyl functional group.
