Patent ID: 8237011

Claim:
A composition of matter comprising: a) a flexible substrate; b) a coating disposed on the substrate, wherein the coating comprises: i) about 10-60 wt-% of a waxy compound selected from the group consisting of: A) monoesters of a polyhydric aliphatic alcohol and a fatty acid containing from eight to eighteen carbon atoms and wherein said monoester has at least one hydroxyl group associated with its aliphatic alcohol residue; B) diesters of a polyhydric aliphatic alcohol and a fatty acid containing from eight to eighteen carbon atoms and wherein said diester has at least one hydroxyl group associated with its aliphatic alcohol residue; and C) mixtures of said monoesters and diesters; and ii) about 90-40 wt-% of a diluent; wherein the coating forms a stable liquid mixture at a temperature between about 35° C. and about 100° C., has a liquefaction temperature of at least about 30° C., and has a contact angle with a flat surface of the substrate of less than about 35° when measured at a temperature of 60° C.
