  • Particulate Filled Polymers
    Publication number: 20080255273
    Abstract: An aqueous polymeric coating composition having a polymer for forming a polymer matrix having carboxylate functionality and nano-scale zinc oxide particles dispersed in the polymer. The particles provide the polymer with at least partial crosslinking and alcohol resistance when incorporated into the polymer matrix upon curing. A polymeric material formed from the aqueous composition and a coated article are also disclosed.
