ABSTRACT:
A water based transparent or translucent lacquer composition for application to plastic items and which provides good adhesion. The lacquer composition comprises a film-forming polymer dispersion along with a water miscible organic solvent, such as an alcohol, present in an amount which does not exceed thirty percent by weight. A substantial portion of the composition e.g. at least 30% is comprised of water. A pigment or dye is incorporated in the composition to provide a color hue or tone to the composition but where the composition still remains transparent or translucent. The composition may also include a coalescing agent, such as an ester alcohol, to provide the needed film resiliency and elongation and to lower film forming temperature. The composition may also optionally include a surfactant. In addition, the composition may optionally include a wetting agent and a thickener and plasticizer. The composition provides aesthetic qualities to the plastic part as well as scratch and abrasion resistance with good adherence to the part. A method of using the composition is disclosed. Further, a method of making the composition which is comprised of forming a polymer dispersion mixture and a solvent mixture are then mixed together vigorously to provide the final lacquer composition.
