Abstract:
A coating exhibiting superior resistance to petroleum products and an absence of known carcinogens as well as a method of preparing same is the subject of the present invention. The coating comprises a combination of a water slurry of filler material to which a latex polymer and coupling agent have been added together with a polyphenyl compound to which plasticizer and surfactant have been added. The water slurry comprises 40-60 weight percent water, 15-35 weight percent filler, 1-10 weight percent latex polymer, 0-2. 0 weight percent coupling agent and up to 1 percent by weight colorant. The binder base comprises 10-50 weight percent tertiary or higher polyphenyls, 1-6 percent by weight compatible plasticizer, and 0. 05 to 1. 0 weight percent nonionic high molecular weight polyester surfactant and is heated. After heating, the binder base and water slurry are combined to form the composition of the invention.
