  • Modified Crush Resistant Latex Topcoat Composition for Fiber Cement Substrates
    Publication number: 20150004420
    Abstract: A final topcoat coating composition and method employs a multistage latex polymer having acetoacetyl or ketone functionality and a hydrazide, hydrazine or polyamine crosslinking agent that provides a crush resistant final topcoat composition. The compositions may be used to coat a variety of substrates including wood, cement and fiber cement.

  • Coating system for cement composite articles
    Patent number: 8293361
    Abstract: A coated article which includes a cement fiberboard substrate and a radiation-curable coating system applied to the substrate. The coating system includes a latex polymer, one or more olefinic compounds and water, and may be provided in the form of one or more coating compositions that may be applied in one or more layers, wherein each of the coating compositions is preferably an aqueous composition, or can be mixed with another composition (e.g., on the substrate) to form an aqueous composition.
