Abstract

Abstract A filler composition consists of 60 to 85% by weight of silica, dolomite and/or calcite of size below 150 μm and of average size above 20 μm, and 40 to 15% by weight of an aqueous emulsion of 40 to 70% solids of a resin binder mixture comprising a quick drying polymer emulsion having a minimum film forming temperature above 5° C. and a flexible polymer emulsion having a minimum film forming temperature below 5° C., the polymer in the emulsion of minimum film forming temperature above 5° C. constituting 60 to 90% by weight of the total polymer in the emulsions.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 177 words
A filler composition comprising, (i) 60 to 85% by weight of a particulate filler selected from the mineral group consisting of silica, dolomite and calcite, or mixtures of any thereof, said particulate filler being of such particle size that at least 95% of the filler passes a 150 μm sieve, at least 50% by weight passes a 53 μm sieve, and having a weight average particle size of at least 20 μm, and correspondingly (ii) 40 to 15% by weight of an aqueous binder resin emulsion of solids content 40 to 70% by weight, said binder resin emulsion comprising (a) a quick drying polymer emulsion having a minimum film forming temperature above 5° C. and (b) a flexible polymer emulsion having a minimum film forming temperature below 5° C., the amount of polymer in said emulsion of minimum film forming temperature above 5° C. being 60 to 90% by weight of the total weight of the polymers in said emulsions, said composition being hardenable to provide a crack-and-weather-resistant finish which can be abraded, for example by sanding.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 177 words
A filler composition comprising, (i) 60 to 85% by weight of a particulate filler selected from the mineral group consisting of silica, dolomite and calcite, or mixtures of any thereof, said particulate filler being of such particle size that at least 95% of the filler passes a 150 μm sieve, at least 50% by weight passes a 53 μm sieve, and having a weight average particle size of at least 20 μm, and correspondingly (ii) 40 to 15% by weight of an aqueous binder resin emulsion of solids content 40 to 70% by weight, said binder resin emulsion comprising (a) a quick drying polymer emulsion having a minimum film forming temperature above 5° C. and (b) a flexible polymer emulsion having a minimum film forming temperature below 5° C., the amount of polymer in said emulsion of minimum film forming temperature above 5° C. being 60 to 90% by weight of the total weight of the polymers in said emulsions, said composition being hardenable to provide a crack-and-weather-resistant finish which can be abraded, for example by sanding.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
A filler composition according to claim 1 wherein the particulate filler is dolomite alone or in admixture with up to 25% by weight, based on the total weight of particulate filler, of silica or calcite.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
A filler composition according to claim 1 or claim 2 wherein the composition contains 75 to 80% by weight of the particulate filler.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
A filler composition according to any one of claims 1 to 3 wherein the binder resin emulsion has a solids content of 45 to 60% by weight.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 41 words
A filler composition according to any one of claims 1 to 4 wherein the quick drying polymer emulsion is a surfactant stabilised emulsion of a styrene/2-ethyl hexyl acrylate copolymer containing 40 to 50% by weight of 2 ethyl hexyl acrylate units.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 37 words
A filler composition according to any one of claims 1 to 5 wherein the flexible polymer emulsion is a surfactant stabilised emulsion of a vinyl acetate/dibutyl maleate copolymer containing about 40% by weight of dibutyl maleate units.
