  • this invention relates to a process for forming a coagulated coating by impinging a stream of a latex and a stream of a coagulant for said latex, at least one of said impinging streams containing a debonding agent, said impingment occurring just prior to or on the surface to be coated, thereby forming an instant coating which coating due to said debonding agent can be readily removed when dseired.
  • a permanant protective coating is not permissable.
  • coatings on mechanical replacement parts and the like must be capable of being easily stripped from the part before the article can be put to its intended use.
  • One object of the instant invention is the application of a coating in a single operation at ambient temperatures without the need for curing. Another object is the application of a coating of substantially uniform thickness to uneven surfaces such as concave and convex surfaces.
  • a still further object of the invention is the provision of a coating composition which has low adherence to the substrate coated whereby the film may be readily stripped tom the surface even after extended periods.
  • Still another object of the invention is to provide a strippable coating composition which is waterproof, tough and resilient and which has excellent flexibility at very high and low temperatures.
  • Another object is to provide a strippable coating composition which affords a film that has good tensile strength.
  • Yet another object is to provide a strippable coating composition which may be applied by spraying and without the need for toxic or flammable organic solvents.
  • a further object is to provide a strippable coating composition having good resistance to water vapor transmission. Another object is to provide a strippable coating composition having good resistance to outdoor climatic conditions. Yet another object of the invention is to provide a strippable coating composition affording excellent resistance to corrosion of metal substrates.

  • Operable latexes herein are those having been stabilized with either cationic or anionic emulsifiers thereby rendering positively or negatively charged polymerized particles.
  • One method of impinging two streams of oppositely charged particles is by spraying.

  • Spraying can be accomplished by conventional means such as a double nozzle spray air gun or double nozzle spray paint guns employing electric motors and pumps.

  • the coagulant can be a strong base e.g. sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide or other well known conventional coagulant.

The measurements were made using 1" x 6" samples on an Instron Tensile Tester at a rate of l inch/min. with 180 peel.

Thus in the instant invention it is necessary that the debonding agent has a solubility parameter at least 2 (cal./cc.) higher than the latex polymer to decrease adhesion and allow stripping.
