20110081541ONE PART, STORAGE STABLE POLYMERIZABLE FORMULATION - A one part, storage stable polymerizable formulation is provided that includes an ethenically unsaturated polymerizable compound intermixed with a free radical polymerization initiator and an organic solvent. The organic solvent provides storage stability and upon evaporation of the solvent, the rate of polymerization of the compound accelerates independent of addition of a second part. The formulation includes at least 30 total weight percent solids upon cure. Optional additives to the formulation include at least one of a cure accelerator, a filler, a plasticizer, a colorant, and a cure inhibitor. A process for forming a polymerized coating on an article involves the application of this formulation to the substrate of an article and allowing sufficient time for the solvent to evaporate to form the polymerized coating on the article. The substrate of the article forms a corrosion barrier even without prior removal of a native corrosion layer on a surface of the substrate of the article.04-07-2011

20090072199WATERBORNE CORROSION-RESISTANT COATING - A waterborne thermoset cured anticorrosion formulation includes a water dispersed or emulsified phosphonated or water dispersed or emulsified sulfonated epoxy resin that is cured with a phenoxy resin having a polyhydroxyl ether backbone and terminal alpha glycol moieties. Water is present as a predominant volatile in which the epoxy resin and phenoxy resin are present in a weight ratio of epoxy resin to phenoxy resin of between 0.1 and 3:1. An aqueous curative is provided to induce cure between the epoxy resin and phenoxy resin, A corrosion inhibiting metal salt is also present having a salt anion of phosphate, biphosphate or tetraborate and a metal cation with the proviso that the metal cation formulation as a whole is devoid of chromium, lead, cobalt, and cadmium. Ideal curatives include aqueous aminoplast crosslinkers, aqueous unblocked isocyanates, aqueous blocked isocyanates, and a mixture thereof. With the inclusion of electrically conductive aluminum or zinc particulate the formulation is rendered corrosion resistant as well as electrically conductive to make an inventive coating amenable to powder coating.03-19-2009
20090191407COATINGS PROVIDING LOW SURFACE EMISSIVITY - Coating compositions which reduce the surface emissivity of structural materials or maintain the surface emissivity of structural materials while protecting the structural materials from oxidation, weathering, and physical damage. The compositions comprise a polymerized organic monomer, an optional dispersible electrically conductive material, a catalyst, and a solvent.07-30-2009
20100092664TWO PART, LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT SELF CURING, LOW VISCOSITY ACRYLIC PENETRANT, SEALANT AND COATING COMPOSITION, AND METHODS FOR USING THE SAME - A self curing, two component penetrating densifying sealant and coating composition that imparts protection and reinforcement to porous substrates, such as wood and concrete, as well as non porous substrates, such a metal surfaces, whether or not corroded, and concrete surfaces.04-15-2010
