## Abstract

Described is a coating composition for a wiper blade of a windscreen wiper. The composition is an aqueous phase composition including a resin and from 30 to 60% by weight of a solid lubricant in dispersion. The composition further includes 0.1 to 2% by weight of graphene. Also described is a method for preparing the composition, use of the composition, and a wiper blade coated with the composition.

## Claims

### Claim 1

0.1% to 2% by weight of graphene,
wherein the at least one solid lubricant is different from graphene, and
wherein weight percentages are relative to a total weight of the composition.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The coating composition as claimed in claim 1, comprising 5% to 25% by weight of the at least one solid lubricant.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The composition as claimed in claim 1, wherein the at least one resin is an acrylic, vinyl, styrenic, and/or urethane polymer, in aqueous phase.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The coating composition as claimed in claim 1, comprising 10% to 25% by weight of resin emulsion or dispersion relative to the total weight of the composition.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The coating composition as claimed in claim 1, further comprising at least one additive selected from thickening agents, spreading agents, dispersing agents, antifoam agents, and UV protection agents.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

A process for preparing a coating composition as claimed in claim 1 comprising:
a) preparing the dispersion of the at least one solid lubricant in aqueous phase;
b) introducing graphene particles into the dispersion obtained in step a, in order to obtain a dispersion of the particles and the at least one solid lubricant; and
c) adding at least one resin in aqueous phase to the dispersion obtained in step b.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The process as claimed in claim 9, wherein in step b), the graphene is introduced in the form of a suspension in aqueous medium.
