| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a coating composition. The coating composition includes THF-diol, a latex polymer comprising a pigment, and a coalescent. The coalescent can be, for example, 2,2,-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate 5 propionic acid, which is available under the trade name TEXANOL*. In another embodiment the coalescent can be a composition comprising a propylene glycol monoester of one or more vegetable oil fatty acids. An example of such a coalescent is available under the trade name ARCHER RC*. The coating composition including THF diol has a reduced volatile organic content (VOC). In one non-limiting embodiment, the 10 VOC of the composition is not greater than about 50 grams per liter (g/i), and in another non-limiting embodiment is not greater than 100 g/l. THF-diol can be used as a complete or partial replacement for propylene glycol in coating compositions, and provides a lower VOC content. |
