An aqueous polymer dispersion and an aqueous coating composition comprising the aqueous polymer dispersion, and the aqueous coating composition providing the resulting coatings with good anti-corrosion property.

The present invention provides a system comprising an allophanate composition comprising a neutralized polyol, a polyuretdione resin, a tertiary amine catalyst, an additive package, and a reducer; and a neutralized basecoat comprising an inorganic salt and a pigment. The present invention further provides a method of making an allophanate system comprising combining a neutralized polyol with a polyuretdione resin in the presence of a tertiary amine catalyst, an additive package, and a reducer to produce an allophanate composition, and contacting the allophanate composition with a neutralized basecoat comprising an inorganic salt and a pigment. The system may be used to make coatings, adhesives, castings, composites, and sealants in which clear-coating on neutralized pigmented basecoats is much improved in comparison to coating on non-neutralized basecoats.

Water-based compositions containing a low VOC coalescent, a latex or water-dispersible polymer are described.

The invention concerns a silicate coating, comprising at least one basic silicate, at least one filler and/or pigment, at least one water-soluble carbohydrate, water in order to produce a liquid or pasty consistency, optionally at least one organic binder, and optional conventional additives.

The invention concerns a storage-stable polymer-bonded composition for the formation of coatings on buildings and the like, comprising at least one organic binder, at least one filler and/or pigment, water in order to produce a pasty consistency in the composition, a buffer system which comprises at least one basic silicate, at least one substance which retards the condensation of the basic silicate, as well as optional conventional additives.

A formulation for an acoustically transparent coating for use on an acoustical substrate comprising a water dispersible binder and relatively large filler particles, and characterized by a high pigment to volume concentration, high viscosity, high shear thinning, and fast drying to enable the formulation to be sprayed in droplets that retain their identity when in mutual contact and in a dry coating can be efficiently sanded flat.

A method for producing a coating liquid, the method including: a preparation step of preparing an emulsion containing a polymer-based emulsifier, a binder resin, and a liquid medium, and aerogel particles; and a mixing step of mixing the emulsion and the aerogel particles prepared in the preparation step to agglomerate at least a portion of the aerogel particles, and obtaining a coating liquid containing agglomerates of the aerogel particles, the polymer-based emulsifier, the binder resin, and the liquid medium.

A floor structure on a base 1 comprising a primer 2 and a floor covering 3 which is atop the primer and comprises a floor coating and/or an adhesive bond, wherein the primer 2 is obtained from an aqueous dispersion of at least one acrylic polymer containing 0.001-0.2% by weight of at least one benzoxazole-based system, based on the total weight of the aqueous dispersion. Such systems in aqueous dispersions containing at least one acrylic polymer do not impair storage stability and also permit good detectability of the coating on the base, both shortly after application of the coating and 6 months thereafter. More particularly, no reduction in detectability over time is found.
