Abstract
A coating material containing borosilicate flake glass is disclosed, together with methods for the preparation and use thereof.
Claims37
A thermal barrier film, said film comprising:
- a flexible sheet, without having a cross-linkable silicone component, that is configured to be applied to at least a portion of a substrate, the flexible sheet formed of a coating material having a quantity of flaked borosilicate glass,
- wherein upon exposure of the substrate having the flexible sheet disposed thereon to a source of thermal radiation, the substrate has a temperature that is less than a temperature of a comparable substrate that does not have the flexible sheet disposed thereon and similarly exposed to the source of thermal radiation.
A coated substrate comprising:
- a non-metal substrate;
- and
- a coating material, without having a cross-linkable component, disposed on and at least partially impregnated in at least a portion of the non-metal substrate, wherein the coating material is a paint that comprises flaked borosilicate glass,
- wherein upon exposure of the coated non-metal substrate to a source of thermal radiation, the coated non-metal substrate has a temperature that is less than a temperature of a comparable non-metal substrate that is not coated with the coating material and similarly exposed to the source of thermal radiation.

A method for improving the thermal properties of a material, the method comprising:
- contacting a coating composition that is a paint comprising flaked borosilicate glass with a non-metal substrate to form a coated non-metal substrate, wherein the coating composition does not comprise a cross-linkable silicone component;
- and
- exposing the coated substrate to a source of thermal radiation, wherein the coated non-metal substrate has a temperature that is less than a temperature of a comparable non-metal substrate that is not coated with the coating composition and similarly exposed to the source of thermal radiation,
- wherein, after contacting, the coating composition is at least partially impregnated in the non-metal substrate.
