ABSTRACT:
Cast ceiling tile requires a particular rheology of its wet formulation for the dried tile to have a desired aesthetic appearance. The use of a latex binder rather than starch for cast ceiling tiles imparts the necessary rheological properties to the wet ceiling tile formulation. The tile is prepared by blending mineral wool with a premixture of water, latex, and filler, said premixture having a sharp yield point when measured with a recording Brookfield Viscometer. The latex is an alkali-swellable latex comprising (i) a C.sub.3 -C.sub.8 .alpha.,.beta.-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid monomer in an amount from about 15 to about 60 weight percent based on the weight of the monomers in the copolymer; (ii) at least one of a copolymerizable nonionic vinyl monomer in an amount from about 45 to about 30 weight percent based on the weight of the monomers in the copolymer and (iii) an additional late feed of nonionic vinyl monomer in an amount from about 10 to about 40 weight percent based on the weight of the monomers in the copolymer.
