Abstract
A coating composition having corrosion inhibiting properties, electrical insulating properties, mold release properties and waterproofing properties comprises a dispersion of microcrystalline paraffin wax in a solvent. The coating composition is prepared by heating the microcrystalline wax to about 70.degree. C. to 82.degree. C. and rapidly pouring the wax into a mixture of hexane and xylene at room temperature.
Claims18
A liquid coating composition prepared by a process comprising the steps of:
- heating microcrystalline paraffin wax above the melting point of said wax;
- and
- admixing said microcrystalline paraffin wax with a solvent substantially at room temperature and dispersing said microcrystalline wax, said solvent consisting essentially of a mixture of a liquid aliphatic hydrocarbon and a xylene, said coating composition being stable without separation or solidification of said microcrystalline wax.
A process of producing a coating composition comprising:
- heating microcrystalline paraffin wax above its melting point;
- and
- admixing said melted microcrystalline paraffin wax with a solvent substantially at room temperature and dispersing said microcrystalline wax, said solvent consisting essentially of a mixture of an aliphatic solvent and at least one aromatic solvent to form said composition.
A liquid coating composition prepared by the process consisting essentially of:
- heating about 3 to 20 parts by weight microcrystalline paraffin wax to about 70.degree. C. to 85.degree. C.;
- and
- admixing said microcrystalline wax with a solvent substantially at room temperature and dispersing said microcrystalline wax, said solvent consisting essentially of about 70 to 95 parts by weight of hexane and about 5 to 30 parts by weight xylene.
A liquid coating composition, consisting essentially of:
- microcrystalline paraffin wax;
- and
- solvent consisting essentially of a mixture of hexane and xylene;
- said composition being stable at room temperature without separation or solidification.
