A SURFACE TREATMENT INCLUDING A HEAT LABILE COMPONENT/CARRIER COMBINATION

摘要

Provided herein are surface treatments such as paints, coatings, stains, varnishes, sealants, films, inks, and the like, containing heat labile component/carrier combinations and methods for making the formulations suitable for treating surfaces. The surface treatments and/or the treated surfaces can be subjected to elevated temperatures at or above which the heat labile component alone decomposes, reacts, or volatilizes. Because the heat labile component adsorbed on the carrier survives the elevated temperature, the resulting treated surfaces exhibit properties derived from the heat labile component(s). Resulting treated surfaces can exhibit properties derived from one or a combination of heat labile components including, but not limited to bacteriocides, fungicides, algaecides, viruscides, insecticides, antibiotics, enzymes, repellents (animal and insect), herbicides, pheromones, molluscicides, acaricides, miticides, rodenticides, fragrances, and the like. Otherwise incompatible components can similarly be included in surface treatments using the carrier technology.
