Title: Improvements in and relating to polysiloxane coating compositions
IPC: C09D183/04
Filed: 1964-10-16
Abstract: A coating composition comprises (a) a polyorganosiloxane resin, (b) an organic resin and/or a drying oil in total amount by weight not exceeding the weight of the siloxane and (c) 0.1-15% of an alkali metal salt of silicic acid, an organosilanol or an organosiloxanol and (d) water.  Polymer (a) may be composed of units of the formula <FORM:1069275/C3/1> where R is a C1- 6 monovalent hydrocarbon radical, R1 is a C1- 4 alkyl radical, x, y and z may be 0-3 and total no more than 3, the average value of x for the polymer is between 0.9 and 1.7, average value of y is between 0.01 and 0.1 and the average value of z is up to 0.1.  Polymers specified include methyl siloxanes, a copolymer of mono- and di-methyl siloxane units and some ethoxy-groups, and methylphenyl siloxanes; (b) may be a natural or synthetic resin dispersible in water to give a film-forming composition which is water-insoluble when dry.  Resins specified include polymers and copolymers of vinyl acetate, vinyl ethyl ether, ethyl acrylate, e.g. polyvinylethylether, a copolymer of vinyl acetate and vinyl laurate and poly-n-butyl acrylate.  Drying oils (b) specified include epoxidized soyabean oil; (c) may be silanolate of formula R11aSi(OM)4- a or a siloxanolate having units of formula R11a(OM)3- aSiO 1/2 and/or R11a(MO)2- aSiO, where R11 is a hydrocarbon radical and M is H or an alkali metal at least one M per molecule being alkali metal.  Compounds (c) specified include sodium methyl silanolate and sodium silicate. The composition may contain 20-100% of water.  Ingredients (a) and (b) may be mixed dry or may be dissolved in a solvent, the solution emulsified with water, and (c) added to the emulsion.  Solvents specified include toluene.  0.1-5% of an emulsifier may be used, e.g. polyvinyl alcohol, hydroxyethylcellulose, or the mono-nonylphenyl ether of polyethylene glycol.  A quantity of pigment up to 15 times that of (a) and (b) may be added to the emulsion before (c) is added. Pigments specified include TiO2, chalk, talc, Fe2O3, dolomite flour, chrome oxide green, barite and carbon black.ALSO:Surfaces may be protected by coating with a composition comprising (a) a resinous organosiloxane polymer, (b) an organic resin and/or an organic drying oil to a total weight not exceeding the weight of (a), (c) 0.1-15% of an alkali metal salt of silicic acid, an organosilanol or an organosiloxanol and (d) water.  The composition may contain up to 15 times its own weight of pigment and the water content may be 20-100%.  The surface to which it is applied may first be primed with an aqueous or organic dispersion or solution of sodium methyl silanolate.  The coating may then be applied by dipping, brushing or spraying and may be applied to wood, metals, e.g. iron, brick walls, concrete, masonary and natural stone.  In Examples coating compositions comprise (a) an organosiloxane polymer comprising monomethylsiloxane and dimethylsiloxane units (b) polyvinylethylether, polyvinyl acetate, poly-n-butyl acrylate, polyethyleneoxide mono-monylphenylether, a copolymer of vinyl acetate and vinyl laurate or epoxidized soyabean oil (c) sodium methyl silanolate or sodium silicate, as solvent toluene, and as pigments TiO2, chalk, talc, Fe2O3, dolomite flour, chrome oxide green, barite and carbon black.  They are applied to mortar and glass surfaces.
