Abstract: A coating compound for use as a sport surface includes a mixture of liquid vehicle of water, a latex, and glycol ether EPH, and particles of kaolin. The compound include particles of calcium carbonate, an organic acid, and a clay mineral. The clay may be one or more of palygorskite, montmorillonite, and smectite. A process for manufacturing a coating compound includes mixing a liquid vehicle in a first mixture including glycol ether EPH. The process includes mixing a second mixture including particles of kaolin, latex, and a portion of the first mixture. The process may include mixing a third mixture including particles of a clay mineral and another portion of the liquid vehicle. A coating includes particles of kaolin and at least one other particle. The particles being bonded together on the base with a continuous between particles in which the continuous phase includes an acrylic polymer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an asphalt slurry seal composition comprising a mineral filler comprising an inorganic mineral blend having a multi-modal particle size distribution comprising at least a first maximum in the range of about 0.1 ?m to about 15 ?m and a second maximum in the range about 5 ?m to about 35 ?m, wherein about 5 wt. % to about 40 wt. % of the particles in the inorganic mineral blend (dry weight) are in the range of about 0.1 ?m to about 15 ?m, a pigment component comprised of at least one pigment, an additive component comprising at least one rheology modifier, an asphalt emulsion, optionally one or more functional minerals, and water. Further, the particles of the inorganic mineral blend may be subjected to surface treatments.
