Alkaline resistant primer and the use thereof
First Claim
1. A primer for mineral substrates that is stable to hydrolysis and to storage and is based on colloidal aqueous solutions of mixtures of synthetic resins, siliconates, organic solvents and additives, consisting essentially in that 100 parts by weight of the primer contains, in addition to water,from 4 to 15 parts by weight of an alkali-soluble acrylic resin comprising from 86% to 94% by weight of monomer units derived from C1 to C8 -alkyl esters of unsaturated acids selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and mixtures thereof, and from 6% to 14% by weight of monomer units derived from the unsaturated acids selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid and mixtures thereof, and having a K-value according to Fikentscher of not more than 50,from 4 to 40 parts by weight of organic solvents that are water-soluble in the context of the present composition and are selected from the group consisting of compounds containing hydroxy groups, carbonyl groups and mixtures of hydroxy and carbonyl groupsfrom 0.1 to 1.5 parts by weight of alkali metal organo-siliconates, and an alkalinizing agent selected from the group consisting of of ammonia, organic amines and mixtures thereof in sufficient quantities that the pH of the primer is at least 8,from 0 to 1 part by weight of at least one compatible anti-foaming agent.

Abstract
An aqueous primer based on alkali-soluble acrylic resins and siliconates, especially suitable for strongly alkaline substrates, for example, asbestos cement articles, is provided. The primer is characterized by stability to storage and good compatibility with the substrate and with customary coating agents, and it brings about good water repellence, good stabilization of the substrate and a good binding between the substrate and the final coating.
