Abstract:
The invention relates to a high shear stable aqueous fluoropolymer coating composition, preferably using polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), such as KYNAR® PVDF, suitable for high performance coating applications. The composition is based on a high shear stable fluoropolymer emulsion having small particle size, blended with an acrylic polymer additive. The use of this composition allows high bake PVDF water-base coatings which can be applied on variety of substrates such as metal or ceramic surfaces, and in the impregnation of textiles, glass, carbon or aramid fibers, etc. The dry coating formed from the coating composition of the invention exhibits improved gloss, crack resistance, chemical resistance, hot dirt pick up resistance and other improved properties.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an aqueous fluoropolymer coating composition for direct application to glass without the need for pre-treatment of the glass surface. The coating composition can also be used with other non-porous and porous substrates. The fluoropolymer coating contains a hydroxyl-functional fluoropolymer, and polyisocyanates. Preferably the coating composition also contains a water-dispersible hydroxyl functional polyurethane. The coating composition may exist as a 1-pack or a multi-pack coating system. The coating has excellent wet adhesion to glass, good weathering, chalking resistance, chemical resistance, and dirt pickup resistance.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an process for coating a glass substrate with an environmentally friendly aqueous, fluoropolymer coating composition. The process involves applying a polyurethane primer to the glass substrate, and partially, but not completely crosslinking this primer coating. An aqueous hydroxyl-functional fluoropolymer coating is then applied to the partially cross-linked primer coating, and the coating allowed to fully cure. The invention also relates to the intertwined multilayer primer/fluoropolymer coating on the glass substrate. The final coating has excellent wet adhesion to glass, good weathering, durability, chalking resistance, chemical resistance, and dirt pickup resistance.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a heat-stabilized fluoropolymer composition that resists discoloration, especially in extended heat applications. The composition includes at least one phosphoaryl compound having phosphorous in a P +3 or P +5 oxidation state. This additive reduces the yellowing effect that can occur during extended heat exposure, especially of polyvinylidene fluoride and polyvinyl fluoride polymers and copolymers.
Abstract:
Fluoropolymer-based coatings with enhanced gloss are obtained by using a semi-crystalline fluorinated polymer having a very small particle size, in combination with a nucleating agent (such as PTFE) and, optionally, an acrylic polymer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a one-step fluoropolymer, especially polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), coating for use on metals, especially use on metal fuel line and brake tubes, etc, to provide a protective barrier with superior chemical resistance, impact resistance and heat resistance as well as good flexibility. The coating composition contains, on a resin solids basis, 75-94 percent polyvinylidene fluoride resin, 5-20 percent acrylic resin, and 1-15 percent polyepoxide polyepoxide resin. The coating has excellent adhesion on metal substrates, particularly on non-pretreated galvanized steel, without the need for a primer coating.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fluoropolymer resin-based composition useful as a stain resistant coating. The coating composition contains organosilicates and at least one water-scavenger, and has an extended pot life. Articles coated with the composition show superior weatherability, dirt schedding, and stain resistance, without a negative effect on gloss. The coating is especially useful on roofing materials, wall materials and other outdoor building materials.
