Abstract
A chemical composition is applied to the surface of a substrate to significantly increase its slip resistance properties. The composition comprises a di-methyl silicone compound, an oxidizing agent, an evaporation modifier, a sequestering agent, a hydrotopic agent, a base, and an organic solvent. Advantageously, the composition is readily applied via spraying or the like. It dries rapidly, causing the substrate to become highly slip-resistant even when wet.
Claims2
A chemical composition comprising:
- (a) a di-methyl silicone compound having a concentration in the range of about 5% to about 15% by weight;
- (b) an oxidizing agent, being chloramine-T, having a concentration in the range of about 0.5% to about 5% by weight;
- (c) an evaporation modifier, being glycol ether, having a concentration in the range of about 2% to about 12% by weight;
- (d) a sequestering agent, being tetrapotassium pyrophosphate, having a concentration in the range of about 7% to about 12% by weight;
- (e) a hydrotopic agent, being phosphate ester, having a concentration in the range of about 1% to about 5%;
- (f) a base, being ammonium hydroxide, having a concentration of about 6% by weight;
- and
- (g) an organic solvent, being selected from the group consisting of:
- isopropanol, methanol, and mixtures thereof.
