Abstract

Abstract Methods for providing temporary protective coatings on mechanic objects by applying thereto an aqueous emulsion of a lipophilic poly(meth)acrylate polymer predominately including esters of alcohols having at least four carbon atoms and then removing said temporary coatings when desired with an organic solvent which, with the polymer dissolved therein, is conveniently disposed of by combustion.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 99 words
A method for providing temporary protection to the surface of a mechanical object with a coating of an acrylic polymer, which method comprises applying to said object an aqueous dispersion of a lipophilic poly(meth)acrylate polymer and removing water therefrom, whereby a film of said polymer is formed on said object, and, when said protective coating is no longer wanted or needed, removing said film from said object with a combustible organic solvent, and, after removal of said film from said object, completely combusting said organic solvent and the removed polymer dissolved therein to CO 2 and H 2 O.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 99 words
A method for providing temporary protection to the surface of a mechanical object with a coating of an acrylic polymer, which method comprises applying to said object an aqueous dispersion of a lipophilic poly(meth)acrylate polymer and removing water therefrom, whereby a film of said polymer is formed on said object, and, when said protective coating is no longer wanted or needed, removing said film from said object with a combustible organic solvent, and, after removal of said film from said object, completely combusting said organic solvent and the removed polymer dissolved therein to CO 2 and H 2 O.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 76 words
A method for providing temporary protection to the surface of a mechanical object with a coating of an acrylic polymer, which method comprises applying to said object an aqueous dispersion of a lipophilic poly(meth)acrylate polymer and removing water therefrom, whereby a film of said polymer is formed on said object, and, when said protective coating is no longer wanted or needed, removing said film from said object with an aqueous emulsion or a combustible organic solvent.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 76 words
A method for providing temporary protection to the surface of a mechanical object with a coating of an acrylic polymer, which method comprises applying to said object an aqueous dispersion of a lipophilic poly(meth)acrylate polymer and removing water therefrom, whereby a film of said polymer is formed on said object, and, when said protective coating is no longer wanted or needed, removing said film from said object with an aqueous emulsion or a combustible organic solvent.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 54 words
A method as in claim 2 wherein, after removal of said film from said object, said aqueous emulsion or organic solvent is separated into an aqueous phase and an organic phase having removed polymer dissolved therein, and said organic phase and dissolved polymer are then completely combusted to CO 2 and H 2 O.
