Abstract

L'invention concerne une composition de revêtement aqueuse utile pour l'entretien de revêtements destinés à des structures architecturales ou pour la finition ou des retouches d'automobiles et de camions. Le liant filmogène comprend un demi-ester neutralisé d'un polymère acrylique présentant au moins deux groupes anhydride réactifs, ainsi qu'un agent réticulant contenant de l'époxide, et contenant facultativement du silane. On peut utiliser la composition dans un système multiple. La composition est caractérisée par une meilleure résistance à l'environnement ainsi qu'une clareté et une apparence excellente, notamment pour des couches de revêtement transparentes.
