Patent ID: 7829193

Claim:
Coating composition, comprising: an aqueous dispersion of film-forming polymer, and a sufficient amount of a silicone polyether satisfying formula (I) below: where EO signifies —O—CH 2 —CH 2 —, PO signifies —O—CH 2 —CH 2 —CH 2 —, where EO and PO have a terminal Group OR, where R represents a hydrogen atom, or a linear or branched alkyl radical having from 1 to 22 carbon atoms, x is a number between 5 and 50, y is a number between 3 and 10, e is a number between 10 and 30, p is a number between 0 and 10, it being understood that: x/y is less than 10, e+p is less than 30, e/p is greater than 1, and x+y is less than 60, wherein the composition provides for a hydrophilic coating composition with a wetting angle of less than 40° on a hydrophobic support.
