Benzoxaborole-Containing Coating Resistant To Cellulose-Supportable Fungus

摘要

A latex paint composition that contains a film-forming binder and pigment dispersed in an aqueous vehicle and also contains an effective amount of one or more cellulose-supportable fungus growth-inhibiting benzoxaborole compounds of Formula C is disclosed. A method of using that latex paint to inhibit the growth of a cellulose-supportable fungus on a cellulosic surface is also disclosed, as is a method of inhibiting such growth by painting over an fungus-infected surface with a contemplated latex paint.

主权项

1. A latex paint composition resistant to cellulose-supportable fungus growth that comprises an aqueous vehicle having dispersed therein a film-forming binder and a pigment, and further containing a cellulose-supportable fungus growth-inhibiting amount of a benzoxaborole compound of Formula C, below, where X is H, C1-C7 acyl, cyano, halogen, C1-C6 hydrocarbyl, carboxyl, C1-C6 hydrocarbyloxy carboxylate, carboxamido whose amido nitrogen atom is unsubstituted, mono-substituted with a R1 C1-C6 hydrocarbyl group, di-substituted with a R2 C1-C6 hydrocarbyl group that is the same as or different from R1, or the amido group nitrogen atom together with R1 and R2 form a 5- or 6-membered ring that can contain one additional heteroatom that is oxygen or nitrogen and wherein the additional nitrogen atom when present in that ring can be unsubstituted or substituted with one C1-C6 hydrocarbyl group.
