Abstract

Abstract Disclosed are coating compositions containing pigment in a vehicle comprising a dispersion of colloidal silica, a mixture of a hydrolyzable trialkoxysilane and a hydrolyzable dialkoxysilane, alcohol, water and sufficient acidifying agent to provide a pH of the vehicle ranging from about 2.8 to about 6.0.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 133 words
A composition comprising: I. a pigment in an amount ranging from about 10 to about 80 percent by volume solids based on the total volume of solids present in said composition; in II. a vehicle comprising, A. a dispersion of colloidal silica, B. a mixture of (i) a hydrolyzable trialkoxysilane and (ii) a hydrolyzable dialkoxysilane, C. an alcohol, D. water, and E. sufficient acidifying agent to provide a pH of the vehicle ranging from about 2.8 to about 6.0, wherein the ratio of the weight of the pigment to the weight of the sum of colloidal silica solids and alkoxysilane solids ranges from 0.1/1 to about 10/1, the alkoxysilane solids calculated assuming theoretically complete hydrolysis of the respective alkoxysilanes to the corresponding silanols, and wherein said composition cures to provide an opaque film.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 133 words
A composition comprising: I. a pigment in an amount ranging from about 10 to about 80 percent by volume solids based on the total volume of solids present in said composition; in II. a vehicle comprising, A. a dispersion of colloidal silica, B. a mixture of (i) a hydrolyzable trialkoxysilane and (ii) a hydrolyzable dialkoxysilane, C. an alcohol, D. water, and E. sufficient acidifying agent to provide a pH of the vehicle ranging from about 2.8 to about 6.0, wherein the ratio of the weight of the pigment to the weight of the sum of colloidal silica solids and alkoxysilane solids ranges from 0.1/1 to about 10/1, the alkoxysilane solids calculated assuming theoretically complete hydrolysis of the respective alkoxysilanes to the corresponding silanols, and wherein said composition cures to provide an opaque film.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 62 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said hydrolyzable trialkoxysilane corresponds to the formula RSi(OR').sub.3 wherein, R is selected from the group consisting of alkyl radicals having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, the phenyl radical, the vinyl radical, the 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl radical, the gamma-glycidoxypropyl radical, and the gamma-methacryloxypropyl radical; and R' is selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, and n-butyl.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 66 words
The composition of claim 2 wherein said hydrolyzable dialkoxysilane corresponds to the formula RR" Si(OR').sub.2 wherein, R and R" independently are selected from the group consisting of alkyl radicals having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, the phenyl radical, the vinyl radical, the 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl radical, the gamma-glycidoxypropyl radical, and the gamma-methacryloxypropyl radical, and R' is selected from the group consisting of methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, and n-butyl.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 42 words
The composition of claim 3 wherein the ratio by weight of said trialkoxysilane to said dialkoxysilane, respectively, ranges from about 93:7 to about 50:50, said ratio calculated on the basis of the hydrolyzed species assuming theoretically complete hydrolysis to the respective silanols.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 125 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said vehicle contains about 10 to about 60 percent by weight total solids based on the sum by weight of colloidal silica solids and alkoxysilane solids in the total weight of the vehicle, the alkoxysilane solids calculated assuming theoretically complete hydrolysis of the respective alkoxysilanes to the corresponding silanols; colloidal silica solids representing about 10 to about 80 percent by weight of said sum; alkoxysilane solids from said mixture representing about 20 to about 90 percent by weight of said sum; and wherein the ratio by weight of said trialkoxysilane to said dialkoxysilane, respectively, in said mixture ranges from about 93:7 to about 50:50, the weights of trialkoxysilane and dialkoxysilane calculated assuming theoretically complete hydrolysis to the corresponding silanols.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said trialkoxysilane comprises methyltrimethoxysilane and said dialkoxysilane comprises dimethyldimethoxysilane.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 31 words
The composition of claim 5 wherein said water is in an amount ranging from about 1 percent to about 90 percent by weight based on the total weight of said vehicle.
