Abstract:
Provided herein are coating compositions for paper comprising aluminum phosphate, aluminum metaphosphate, aluminum orthophosphate and/or aluminum polyphosphate pigments. Methods of making and using the compositions are described.
Abstract:
An aluminum phosphate or polyphosphate-based pigment product is made by a process comprising contacting phosphoric acid with aluminum sulfate and an alkaline solution to produce an aluminum phosphate based product; and optionally calcining the aluminum phosphate based product at an elevated temperature, wherein the process is substantially free of an organic acid. The aluminum phosphate or polyphosphate-based pigment is amorphous. The amorphous aluminum phosphate or polyphosphate characterized by a bulk density of less than 2.30 grams per cubic centimeter and a phosphorus to aluminum mole ratio of greater than 0.8. The composition is useful in paints and as a substitute for titanium dioxide.

Abstract:
Slurry composition comprising amorphous aluminum phosphate, polyphosphate orthophosphate, metaphosphate and/or combination thereof and a dispersant are described. In certain embodiments, the polyphosphate orthophosphate and/or metaphosphate concentration is about 40 to about 70 weight % and the dispersant concentration is less than about 3.5 weight % based on the total weight of the slurry. In one embodiment, the composition is useful in paints, varnishes, printing inks, papers and plastics. The compositions can be used as a substitute for titanium dioxide in various applications.
Abstract:
Anticorrosive coating compositions comprise a binding polymer and an amorphous aluminum phosphate corrosion inhibiting pigment. The composition comprises from about 1 to 25 percent by weight amorphous aluminum phosphate. The amorphous aluminum phosphate has a water adsorption potential of up to about 25 percent by weight water. The composition provides a controlled phosphate delivery of from about 50 to 500 ppm, and preferably of from about 100 to 200 ppm. The composition has a total solubles content of less than about 1,500 ppm. The amorphous aluminum phosphate is preferably substantially free of alkali metals. The amorphous aluminum phosphate is made by combining aluminum hydroxide with phosphoric acid and sodium aluminate. The amorphous aluminum phosphate is treated to reduce the level of unwanted solubles, and the treated amorphous aluminum phosphate is dried at less than about 300° C. The composition is used as a primer coat, a mid-coat, and/or a top-coat coating.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of amorphous aluminum phosphate or polyphosphate-based pigment by reacting aluminum phosphate and sodium aluminate is provided. The amorphous aluminum phosphate or polyphosphate is characterized by a skeletal density of less than 2.50 grams per cubic centimeter and a phosphorus to aluminum mole ratio of greater than 0.8. In one embodiment, the composition is useful in paints as a substitute for titanium dioxide.
Abstract:
An aluminum phosphate composition comprising aluminum phosphate, aluminum polyphosphate, aluminum metaphosphate, or a mixture thereof. The composition may be characterized by, when in powder form, having particles wherein some of the particles have at least one or more voids per particle. In addition, the composition is characterized by exhibiting two endothermic peaks in Differential Scanning Calorimetry between about 90 degrees to about 250 degrees Celsius. The composition is also characterized by, when in powder form, having a dispersibility of at least 0.025 grams per 1.0 gram of water. The composition is made by a process comprising contacting phosphoric acid with aluminum sulfate and an alkaline solution to produce an aluminum phosphate based product; and optionally calcining the aluminum phosphate, polyphosphate or metaphosphate based product at an elevated temperature. The composition is useful in paints and as a substitute for titanium dioxide.
