Abstract: Curable compositions are provided comprising: a) an isocyanate-functional component and b) an amine-functional component comprising i) a primary amine- and/or a secondary amine-functional compound, and ii) a tertiary amine-functional compound. The tertiary amine-functional compound is present in the amine-functional component b) in an amount of 3.5 to 7 percent by weight, based on the total weight of amine-functional compounds in the amine-functional component b). Also provided are curable compositions comprising the above and c) untreated silica particles. The untreated silica particles are present in the curable composition in an amount of 0.5 to 15 percent by weight, based on the total weight of solids in the curable composition. Additionally provided are coated articles and polyurea articles formed from the curable compositions above.

Abstract: Aqueous coating compositions providing enhanced anticorrosive and water-resistant properties. The anticorrosive coating comprises water borne resin, surface-hydrophobic inorganic pigments, and/or surface-hydrophobic inorganic extenders.

Abstract: The invention relates to inorganic particle slurries and coated articles having hydrophobic inorganic particles and at least one metal salt, wherein the hydrophobic inorganic particles are inorganic particles having a hydrophobic coating selected from the group consisting of polyols, organosiloxanes, organosilanes, alkylcarboxylic acids, alkylsulfonates, organophosphates, organophosphonates, fluoropolymers, fluorosurfactants, and mixtures thereof, and wherein the metal of the metal salt is selected from the group consisting of barium, cobalt, zinc, tin, lead, copper, calcium, titanium, zirconium, magnesium, and aluminum. The combination of hydrophobic inorganic particles and metal salts provides synergistic effects in stain migration prevention, protective, and light scattering properties.
