The invention relates to a method for producing a covering layer for elastic laminate comprising a) impregnating a carrier fabric, b) applying a surface coating comprising a crosslinker and a prepolymer that can be crosslinked via reactive end groups, c) crosslinking the crosslinkable prepolymer, and d) drying the elastic laminate covering layer. The papers obtainable in this manner are suitable for producing a laminate that, with the elastic outer face thereof, has a pleasant and appealing feel underfoot and good haptics.

To provide a repairing method, by which a coated article having high adhesion between a PVDF coating film and a repair coating film and favorable processability of the repair coating film can be obtained, and a repaired coated article.

A method for repairing a first coating film, which comprises applying a second coating material (repairing coating material) to a position to be repaired of a first coating film (PVDF coating film) formed by applying a first coating material to the surface of a substrate, to form a second coating film (repair coating film) thereby to repair the first coating film,

wherein the first coating material is a powder coating material containing PVDF (A) and a resin (B), wherein the second coating material is a coating material containing a fluororesin (L) and a titanium oxide pigment (M), and wherein the content of the titanium oxide pigment (M) is from 15 to 190 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the fluororesin (L).

Disclosed are aqueous coating compositions containing an anionically stabilized polymer, one or more polyfunctional amines acting as crosslinking agents, and a volatile base. Coating compositions can further include one or more additional copolymers, which may or may not be anionically stabilized, and/or additional additives, including pigments, defoamers, pigment dispersing agents, thickeners, surfactants, and combinations thereof. By incorporating one or more polyfunctional amines, such as those comprising recurring units derived from the reaction of one tri-glycidyl moiety and a single di-, or tri-functional amino monomer, or a combination of mono/bi, mono/tri, mono/tetra, bi/bi, bi/tri, bi/tetra, tri/tri, tri/tetra, and tetra/tetra functional amino monomers with a bi- or tri-glycidyl moiety, water wash-off resistance of the coating compositions which comprise paint formulations, can be increased.

The present invention relates to the installation of floorcovering articles on chemically abated flooring surfaces and the composite article resulting therefrom. More specifically, the invention relates to a process for chemical removal of mastic, putty and/or paste material from a flooring surface. The process includes applying abatement chemical to the mastic material on the flooring surface to soften the mastic material and cause it to physically separate and release from the flooring surface, removal of the mastic material and abatement chemical, and the subsequent application of a barrier coating to the flooring surface. The barrier coating reduces and/or eliminates the migration of residual abatement chemicals into floorcovering articles thereinafter installed on the chemically abated flooring surface. The resulting composite article is comprised of a chemically abated flooring surface containing pores, at least one abatement chemical in said pores, a polymer-containing barrier material, and a floorcovering article.

Disclosed are antimicrobial sacrificial floor coatings systems including an antimicrobial sacrificial floor coating composition capable of reducing and/or preventing gram positive and gram negative bacterial growth on floors.
