  • Publication number: 20050124735
    Abstract: Novel, one-part polymer grout compositions are provided comprising a silanated polymer. The inventive grout compositions can thus be water and/or stain resistant to a greater degree than conventional one-part polymer grouts. In some embodiments, the grout compositions may also have enhanced shrinkage and/or crack resistance, as may be provided at least in part by the inclusion of an amount of one or more fiber fillers. As a result of these advantageous properties, the one-part polymer grout compositions provided herein may find applicability in environments previously contraindicated for conventional one-part polymer grout compositions, e.g., in horizontal and/or damp, or even wet, environments, or in combination with certain tile materials, e.g. water absorbing tile materials.

  • Publication number: 20050124754
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a one-part polymer grout composition tintable to any desired color upon request, as well as to a method of tinting the grout composition. Advantageously, the present one-part polymer grout compositions may be tinted using any of the multiplicity of commercially available universal colorants, according to fandecks of color based upon the same, or by visual or computerized color matching. Similarly, since conventional universal colorants may be employed, the equipment utilized to tint and agitate paint in order to provide any desired color may be utilized to tint the present grout compositions. A kit is also provided, comprising the tintable grout composition and instructions for tinting the grout composition according to the method.
