Patent number: 7951232Abstract: The invention provides surface coating compositions comprising a preservative comprising 9-decenoic acid, salts of 9-decenoic acid, esters of 9-decenoic acid, or combinations thereof. The surface coating compositions may be water-based coatings (e.g., a latex paint) or solvent-based coatings (e.g., a solvent-based paint). The surface coating compositions may be paints, stains, varnishes, concrete coatings, anti-graffiti coatings, and the like. Methods for protecting a surface coating composition from in-can spoilage and protecting a coating of the surface coating composition from deterioration by the action of microorganisms are also described.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2007Date of Patent: May 31, 2011Assignee: Elevance Renewable Sciences, Inc.Inventors: Jill Louise Zullo, James C. Anderson, Hiroki Kaido, Richard L. Pederson, Yann Schrodi, William H. Sperber, Michael J. Tupy, Earl H. Wagener
