Tetrafluoroethylene polymer dispersions

Claim 1

A coating dispersion which imparts resistance to attack by acidic flue gas to glass fabric coated with said dispersion, consisting essentially of (a) water, (b) 2-65% by weight tetrafluoroethylene polymer, said weight based on weight of water and polymer, said polymer being of film-forming molecular weight, (c) 2-60% by weight of a polyhydrolyzable silane of the formula R.sub.1 Si--OR).sub.3 wherein R is lower alkyl, preferably alkyl of 1-3 carbon atoms, and R 1 is phenyl or substituted lower alkyl, preferably of 1-3 carbon atoms, in which the substituents are selected from halogen, quaternary ammonium, or --NR'R" in which R' and R" are each H, lower alkyl, lower alkoxyalkyl, amino lower alkyl, hydroxyl lower alkyl, or substituted amino lower alkyl, said weight based on weight of tetrafluoroethylene polymer, (d) 1-20% by weight of a hydrocarbyl siloxane, said weight based on weight of tetrafluoroethylene polymer, (e) 1-20% by weight of a polymer of a fluorinated ester of an acrylic acid, said weight based on weight of tetrafluoroethylene polymer, and (f) 1-12% by weight of C 9 F 17 O(CH 2 CH 2 O) n R wherein n is an integer of 1 through 10 and R is hydrogen or alkyl of 1-10 carbon atoms, said weight based on weight of tetrafluoroethylene polymer.
