The protection of commercial buildings from the elements is a major function of the coatings used in new build and maintenance applications. Waterborne elastomeric acrylic coatings represent an important category of coatings used in both residential and commercial architectural painting. Based on acrylic latex binders with very low glass transition temperatures, elastomeric acrylic coatings are used on low slope roofing, masonry walls and structures, and are also utilized as components of exterior insulation and finishing systems (EIFS). Key properties imparted by the elastomeric acrylic binder to the coating systems include low VOC, dirt pickup resistance, excellent flexibility even at low temperatures, the bridging of small cracks in masonry, UV and water resistance, solar reflectivity for cool roofs, and the ability to be applied in thick films without mudcracking. This paper will explore the chemistry of elastomeric acrylics, techniques for their evaluation in the laboratory, a discussion of the various applications where they are utilized and expected performance, and results of accelerated and natural exposures and real-world case studies.

The use of ceramic fillers in coatings is not new. The technology has been around in excess of 15 plus years, with constant experimentation. The market acceptance of ceramic based coatings has only generally received market acceptance in the past 5 years, as performance history had to be built to back up the manufacturer's claims.

Foul-release coating systems were examined by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) to measure the degradation of coating dielectric properties in immersion. Three-inch by six-inch coated steel coupons were placed in dilute Harrison’s solution (DHS) to simulate constant immersion field conditions.
