Composition comprising superabsorbent polymer

摘要

Disclosed is a composition (e.g., a texture composition) comprising, consisting of, or consisting essentially of calcium carbonate and superabsorbent polymer that can absorb at least about 50 times its mass and having a particle size of about 250 microns or less, wherein the composition is substantially free of a setting-type cementitious material. In some embodiments, cellulosic thickener content is reduced or eliminated from the texture composition. Also disclosed is a method of finishing a substrate comprising applying to the surface a wet composition comprising, consisting of, or consisting essentially of calcium carbonate and superabsorbent polymer that can absorb at least about 50 times its mass and having a particle size of about 250 microns or less, wherein the composition is substantially free of a setting-type cementitious material, and drying the composition on the substrate.

主权项

1. A texture composition for texturing a substrate comprising:
(a) non-setting mineral; (b) superabsorbent polymer that can absorb at least about 50 times its mass, and having a particle size of about 250 microns or less; and (c) water, wherein the texture composition is substantially free of a setting type cementitious material, wherein the composition hardens upon drying, and wherein the texture composition has a viscosity of from about 150 to about 800 Brabender units.
