  • EXPANDABLE COATING COMPOSITIONS AND USE THEREOF
    Publication number: 20170130058
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to impact resistant and/or thermally insulative coating compositions for protective packages. Particularly, the protective packages include envelopes, pillows and Gusseted bags that house fragile and/or perishable objects during transport or mailing. The coating composition, upon heat or radiation trigger, expands at least 2500% in volume. The protective packages coated with the coating composition provide impact resistance, high strength, thermal insulation and light-weighting.
