Abstract
Abstract A composition containing fluorocarbon polymer, colloidal silica, alkyl benzene, water-miscible alcohol containing 4 or more carbon atoms, amine, fatty acid containing 8 or more carbon atoms, and liquid carrier is provided. This composition is useful for coating metal, especially cookware, to give a non-stick finish and also to provide an excellent primer coat.
