Patent number: 10640427Abstract: A method for making a coating composition by mixing one or more latex polymers and an aliphatic epoxy resin system having an epoxy equivalent weight less than 1000 and being distinct from the one or more latex polymers to provide an aqueous first component, and providing a second component having reactive groups that can react with the one or more epoxy resins. A mixture of the first and second components provides a film-forming curable coating composition that may be used on substrates including cement, cement fiberboard, wood, metal, plastic, ceramic, glass and composites.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2017Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: AXALTA COATING SYSTEMS IP CO. LLCInventors: Archie W. Garner, T. Howard Killilea, Carl L. Cavallin, Todd A. Peterson, Kevin W. Evanson, Dan Hartinger, Larry B. Brandenburger

Publication number: 20200048494Abstract: A urethane composition useful in a variety of applications such as, for example, as a direct-to-metal coating, i.e. a coating composition that can be applied directly to the surface of a metal substrate without a primer or pretreatment is described. The coating composition preferably includes a polyol that is the reaction product of a resin of general formula (I) with an acid or a diol respectively, with the reaction being carried out in the presence of a catalyst. The coating composition also includes an isocyanate-functional compound as a crosslinker. The coating composition forms a corrosion-resistant film when applied directly to the substrate surface without a pretreatment or primer.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 26, 2019Publication date: February 13, 2020Applicant: SWIMC LLCInventors: Donald W. Boespflug, Tapan DebRoy, Dan Hartinger

Patent number: 8932718Abstract: A coating system, a method of coating a substrate, and a coated substrate (e.g., a coated cement fiberboard article) include one or more latex polymers, an aliphatic epoxy resin system, optionally a silicate additive, and optionally one or more olefinic compounds and an initiator. The coating system may be applied in one or more layers and may be applied to all the surfaces of the substrate (e.g., the front side, back side and edges of a board). The coated substrate may then be coated with other optional coatings, e.g., decorative or protective topcoats.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2007Date of Patent: January 13, 2015Assignee: Valspar Sourcing, Inc.Inventors: Archie W.
