The present invention relates to strategies by which one or more phenolic resins are provided in aqueous phenolic dispersions in a manner so that the resultant aqueous phenolic dispersions are more easily combined with water-based latex compositions. The principles of the present invention make it much easier to formulate water-based latex compositions in which substantial phenolic resin content can be stably dispersed for long periods of time. In one aspect, the present invention relates to a method of making a coating composition, comprising a) providing an inverted aqueous dispersion comprising i) at least one polymer having one or more polar, hydrophilic groups; and ii) at least one phenolic resin; b) providing a latex composition; and c) blending the latex composition with the aqueous dispersion to form the coating composition.

A polymer concrete composition has a base composition including a first isocyanate component and a first isocyanate reactive component, and one or more pre-coated aggregates that each has a base substrate and a two-component reaction product polymeric coating on an outer surface of the base substrate. The polymeric coating is the reaction product of a second isocyanate component and a second isocyanate-reactive component.

The present invention relates to polyvinyl chloride aggregate particles, in which a particle diameter D50 at a cumulative volume percentage of 50 vol % in a volume particle size distribution is 0.5 μm or more and 5.0 μm or less, and a particle diameter D90 at a cumulative volume percentage of 90 vol % in the volume particle size distribution is 8.0 μm or less, and a Na concentration in the polyvinyl chloride aggregate particles is 90 ppm or less. The present invention relates to a composition for a metal can coating material, a composition for a marking film and a method for producing the same, and a coating film that contain the polyvinyl chloride aggregate particles. This provides polyvinyl chloride aggregate particles capable of imparting high transparency and retort resistance to a coating film of a metal can, and/or capable of imparting high transparency and water resistance to a marking film.
