Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The disclosed invention relates to a coating composition, comprising: water; a multivalent transition metal oxide, hydroxide and/or salt; and a polymer comprising repeating units derived from itaconic acid. The coating composition may be used to coat masonry substrates, and the like.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A coating composition, comprising: water; an oxide of zinc present from 0.25 to 10 wt. % in the coating composition; and a polymer comprising (a) from about 0.5 to about 3 wt % based on the weight of the polymer of repeating units derived from itaconic acid; (b) from about 0 to about 2 wt % based on the weight of the polymer of repeating units derived from acrylic acid; (c) from about 94.5 to about 99.5 wt % based on the weight of the polymer of repeating units derived from one or more non-ionic mono-ethylenically unsaturated monomers; (d) from about 0 to about 5 wt % based on the weight of the polymer of repeating units derived from one or more multi-ethylenically unsaturated monomers; and (e) from about 0 to about 1 wt % based on the weight of the polymer of repeating units derived from one or more anionic mono-ethylenically unsaturated monomers other than itaconic acid and acrylic acid, wherein said polymer has a glass transition temperature in the range from about −50 to about +10° C. 2. The composition of claim 1 wherein the oxide of zinc is in the form of particulate solids. 3. The composition of claim 1 wherein the oxide of zinc is present from 1.5 to 5 wt. % in the coating composition. 4. The composition of claim 2 wherein the polymer has a glass transition temperature in the range from about −40 to about 0° C. 5. The composition of claim 1 wherein the one or more non-ionic mono-ethylenically unsaturated monomers comprise one or more acrylic acid esters, methacrylic acid esters, unsaturated nitriles, styrenic monomers, vinyl esters, vinyl ethers, conjugated dienes, olefins, halogenated monomers, allyl monomers, organosilanes, or a mixture of two or more thereof. 6. The composition of claim 1 wherein the one or more multi-ethylenically unsaturated monomers comprise allyl methacrylate, diallyl phthalate, 1,4-butylene glycol dimethacrylate, 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate, or a mixture of two or more thereof. 7. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polymer is derived from itaconic acid, styrene, acrylonitrile and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate. 8. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polymer is derived from itaconic acid, acrylic acid, styrene, acrylonitrile and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate. 9. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polymer is derived from itaconic acid, acrylamide, styrene, and n-butyl acrylate. 10. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polymer is derived from itaconic acid, acrylic acid, acrylamide, styrene and n-butyl acrylate. 11. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polymer is in the form of particulates with an average particle size in the range from about 100 to about 700 nanometers. 12. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polymer is present in the coating composition at a concentration in the range from about 10 to about 70 wt %. 13. The composition of claim 1 wherein the coating composition is applied to a substrate and dried or cured, the resulting coating containing from about 20 to about 70 wt % of the polymer. 14. The composition of claim 1 wherein the composition further comprises one or more stabilizers, defoamers, antioxidants, UV absorbers, carbodiimides, activators, curing agents, stabilizers, dyes, pigments, neutralizing agents, rheology modifiers, plasticizers, coalescing agents, waxes, slip and release agents, antimicrobial agents, surfactants, metals, coalescents, salts, flame retardant additives, dispersants, extender pigments, wetting agents, antiozonants, photosensitive additives, leveling agents, preservatives, coupling agents, or a mixture of two or more thereof. 15. A process comprising applying the composition of claim 1 to a substrate. 16. The process of claim 15 wherein the coating composition is applied to the substrate using air-assisted spray, airless spray, electrostatic spray, brushing, roller, mop, caulking gun or trowel. 17. The process of claim 15 wherein the substrate comprises masonry, wood, concrete, metal, glass, ceramics, plastic, plaster, stucco, roofing substrate, synthetic polymer membranes, or foamed insulation. 18. The process of claim 15 wherein the substrate comprises a previously painted, primed, undercoated, worn, or weathered substrate. 19. The process of claim 15 wherein the substrate comprises brick, concrete, blends of concrete or mortar and aggregate, stone, tile and/or stucco. 20. The process of claim 15 wherein the substrate comprises common brick, paving brick, face brick, drain tile, hollow block, cinder block, glazed brick, glazed tile, terracotta, conduit, roofing tile, ceramic tile, flue lining, mortar, cement, gypsum, marble, limestone, electrical insulators and/or thermal insulators.
