TITLE
PRO~UCTS AND PROCESS
This invention relates to aqueous dispersions of ~etrafluoroethylene polymers and to coatings of such dispersions on glass fabric~
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Fabric made of glass fiber is useful in filter applications to separate particles from a gas stream. Commonly the glass fabric i5 coated with a tetrafluoroethylene polymer coating, usually polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), to increase the flex life, i.e., resis~ance to breaking on repeated flexing, of the fabric. Such a coating i5 especially useful when the glass fabric is employed as a filter bag to filter out particulate solid impurities such as carbon black or fly ash which may be present in flue gase~. Due to the passage of hot flue gases through the glass fabric and due to back flushing or pulse fl~shing during cleaning, the fabric is subjec~ed to flexural stresses which weaken the glass fibers of the fabric and ultimately cause breakage.
While the tetrafluoroethylen~ polymer coating increases ~he flex life of the glass fabric, resistance of the coated glass fabric to attack by acids present in hot flue gases could be improved.
~any hot 1ue gases contain oxides of sulfur and ~ater vapor which combine to form an acidic environment. Glass fabric coated with tetrafluoroethylene poly~er coatings heretofore were subject to attack by acids in ~he flue gas which weakened the fa~ric and shortened the fabric's flex life.
AD 503~ 35 It would be desirable to have a tetrafluoroethylene polymer coating composition which imparts greater resistance to attack by acids than tetrafluoroethylene polymer coating compositions heretofore available.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It has now been discovered that tetrafluoroethylene polymer coating dispexsions which impart resistance to attack by acids to glass fabric coated with the dispersion can be obtained by employing in the coa~ing dispersion, a water-soluble, polyhydrolyzable silane, a fluorinated acrylate water-repellant additive, and a siloxane.
Specifically, the composition of this invention is an aqueous dispersion consisting essentially of a) water, b) 5-65% by weight tetrafluoroethylene polymer, said weight based on weight of water and polymer, said polymer being of film-forming molecular weight, c) 2-60% by weight of a polyhydrolyzable silane of the formula R~Si~OR)3 wherein R is lower alkyl, preferably alkyl of 1-3 carbon atoms, and Rl is phenyl or substituted lower alkyl, pre~erably of 1-3 carbon atoms, in which the substituents are selected from halogen, quaternary ammonium, or -NR'R" in which Rl and R" are each ~, lower alkyl, lower alkoxyalkyl, amino lower alkyl, hydroxyl lower alkyl, or substituted (amino lower alkyl), said weight based on weight of tetrafluoroethylene polymer, ~'7 d) 1-20% by weight of a hydrocarbyl siloxane, said weight based on weight of tetrafluoroethylene polymer, e) 1-20% by weight of a polymer of a fluorinated ester of an acrylic acid, said weight based on weight of tetrafluoroethylene polymer.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The tetrafluoroethylene polymer in the compositions of this invention can consist of the homopolymer, polytetrafluoroethylene, or can be a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene with a minor proportion, e.g. up to 35% by weight based on weight of copolymer, of another copolymerizable ethylenically unsaturated monomer. For example, the homopolymer can include small amounts of comonomer modifier, wherein the homopolymer still retains its non-melt fabricable character, such as up to two percent by weight of polymer units derived by copolymerization with tetrafluoroethylene of perfluoroalkyl or oxyperfluoroalkyl trifluoroethylene of 3 to 10 carbon atoms, and preferably hexafluoropropylene, as disclosed in U.S. Patent No.

A suitable dispersing agent in an amount of up to about 6% based on polymer may be present.
The water-soluble, polyhydrolyzable silane is preferably one in which Rl is aminoalkyl or substituted amino alkyl. Representative of these S~;~
amino alkyl groups are -CH2-CH~CH2NH2, -CH2- (CH2) 2N~1 (CH2) 2NH2' -CH2-(CH2~3N(CH3)2, and the like. The term lower alkyl means alkyl of 1-6 carbon atom5, as used herein. Representa~ive silanes include y-aminopropyl triethoxy silane; (N,N-dimethyl-3-amino propyl trimethoxy silane; N-trimethoxy silylpropyl-N,N,N-trimethyl ammonium chloride; 3(N-styryl methyl-2-aminoethyl) aminopropyl tr imethoxy-silane hydrochloride; and the like.

The polymers of a fluorinated estex of acrylic acid used herein are water-repellant additives and are commonly referred to as fluorinated acrylate polymers (including methacrylate). Such ~ ~'7~7 ~
polymers include ZEPEL* fluorinated water-repellant polymers, and the like. The fluorination of the ester group is generally in the form of a perfluoroalkyl yroup containing from ~ to L2 carbon atoms. The polymers can be homopolymer or copolymers, including segmented copolymers, with other copolymerizable monomers, with the ester repeat unit which supplies the water repellancy to the polymer being generally represented by the formula lQ - CH2 - C~ -Lo CO(CH2)sQ
wherein J is H or CH3, s is an integer of 1 to 12, and Q is an organic group which contains a perfluoroalkyl group of 3 to 12 carbon atoms.
Examples o~ monomers from which this repeat unit is dervied by polymerization ~or copolymerization) are`
as follows:

To prepare the coating dispersions of this invention, the silane, siloxane and fluorinated acrylate polymer are generally added to an aqueous dispersion of the tetrafluoroethylene polymer.
Neither temperature nor pressure are critical during the preparation.
The glass fabric to which coating dispersions of the present invention are applied can be made of any glass such as soda-lime-silica, aluminosilicate or borosilicate, but will usually be the glass from which commercially available glass yarn is made. Typically, the glass fabric will have a sizin~, such as starch, on the surface thereof.
Preferably, however, the glass fabric can be cleaned of sizing such as by conventional heating procedures prior to coating, such as passing a web of glass fabric through an oven heated at about 700C in order to burn off the sizins, or batch heating in an oven.
To coat the glass fabric, the coating dispersion is adjusted to a solids content of 5-30 by weight, if necessary, and the fabric is conveniently dipped into the dispersion and then excess liquid is removed by passing through rollers or blades. Alternatively the dispersion can be sprayed on one or both sides of the fabric. The coated fabric is then heated at between lOO and 340C
to cure and dry the coating The amount of coating on the cured and dried fabric can be between 3 and 20~ by total weight and preferably is between 6 and 15%.
If desired, the coated glass fabric can be topcoated with a dispersion of the water-repellant fluorinated acrylate polymer.
