as organic synergists of fire and flame retardants in self-extinguishing polymeric compositions.

The present disclosure relates to coating compositions. A fire resistant, corrosion protective, water proofing, energy saving, water based heat insulating coating composition and a process for its preparation is provided. The coating composition comprises a graft copolymer emulsion, a colorant, and one or more reinforcing additives. The graft copolymer is crafted to synergize the properties shown by the polymers of four different specialty monomers which results in a coating that exhibits excellent heat insulation and other mechanical properties. The coating is useful as a heat insulating coating.

The present disclosure provides a polymeric membrane. The polymeric membrane includes a first thermoplastic elastomer layer. The thermoplastic elastomer layer includes a filler component that is at least about 30 wt % of the thermoplastic elastomer layer. The polymeric membrane can further include an optional second thermoplastic elastomer layer in contact with the first polyolefin layer.
