Abstract
A coating composition for forming abrasion-resistant, high clarity coatings is described. It has been found that a macrocrystalline or single crystal mineral abrasive can be added at high levels, about 5 to about 80 percent by weight, to art-recognized film-forming resin compositions for producing coatings exhibiting exceptional abrasion resistance and clarity. Such a coating composition is useful for application to surfaces including wood, vinyl, tile, rubber modified cement, marble, metal, plastic, and laminated surfaces.

A filled coating composition for forming abrasion-resistant coatings of about 70% clarity or higher as measured by the ASTM® E430 Standard on a substrate, said coating composition comprising a film-forming resin component and about 5 percent to about 80 percent by weight of a mineral abrasive filler in single crystalline form.
A filled coating composition for forming abrasion-resistant coatings of about 70% clarity or higher as measured by the ASTM® E430 Standard on a substrate, said coating composition comprising a film-forming resin component and about 5 percent to about 80 percent by weight of a mineral abrasive filler in macrocrystalline form.
A filled coating composition for forming abrasion-resistant coatings of about 70% clarity or higher as measured by the ASTM® E430 Standard on a substrate, said coating composition comprising a film-forming resin component and about 30 percent to about 80 percent by weight of a mineral abrasive filler in macrocrystalline form.
A filled coating composition for forming abrasion-resistant coatings of about 70% clarity or higher as measured by the ASTM® E430 Standard on a substrate, said coating composition comprising a film-forming resin component and about 30 percent to about 80 percent by weight of a mineral abrasive filler in single crystalline form.
An abrasion-resistant filled coating laminate having about 70% clarity or higher as measured by the ASTM® E430 Standard on a substrate, said laminate comprising at least two coating layers, wherein at least one of said layers comprises a resin component and about 5 percent to about 80 percent by weight of a mineral abrasive filler, where the mineral abrasive filler is in macrocrystalline form or in single crystal form, and at least one of said layers comprises a filled top coat.
