Abstract
Abstract The dispersion of poly(ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) containing various aids such as a viscosity improver, wetting agent, water, solvent, and an anti-sag agent. The dispersion is sprayable and thick coats can be applied to an article or object. Upon cure, the coating exhibits very good physical properties such as toughness, wear and abrasion resistance, and corrosion resistance.
