Spray texture material compositions, systems, and methods with anti-corrosion characteristics
View Patent ↗A system for dispensing texture material in a desired spray pattern that substantially matches an existing texture pattern on a target surface has a container assembly, an actuator assembly, and a concentrate. The concentrate comprises a solvent/carrier comprising water, wall texture material, a first anti-corrosion material, where the first anti-corrosion material is a phosphate ester and comprises approximately 0.1-5.0% by weight of the concentrate, and a second anti-corrosion material, where the second anti-corrosion material is sodium nitrite and comprises approximately 0.25-2.00% by weight of the concentrate. The concentrate is disposed within the container assembly such that the water is exposed to the inner surface of the container assembly. At least one of the first and second anti-corrosion materials forms a film that inhibits corrosion on tin-plated steel forming at least part of the inner surface of the container assembly.
1. A system for dispensing texture material in a desired spray pattern that substantially matches an existing texture pattern on a target surface, comprising:
a container assembly defining an inner surface formed at least in part of tin-plated steel;
an actuator assembly defining an outlet opening having an adjustable cross-sectional area; and
a concentrate comprising
a solvent/carrier comprising water,
wall texture material,
a first anti-corrosion material, where the first anti-corrosion material is a phosphate ester and comprises approximately 0.1-5.0% by weight of the concentrate, and
a second anti-corrosion material, where the second anti-corrosion material is sodium nitrite and comprises approximately 0.25-2.00% by weight of the concentrate; wherein
the concentrate is disposed within the container assembly such that the water is exposed to the inner surface of the container assembly;
at least one of the first and second anti-corrosion materials forms a film that inhibits corrosion on the inner surface of the container assembly; and
the concentrate passes through the outlet opening in a spray pattern that forms the desired texture pattern on the target surface.
2. A system as recited in claim 1 , further comprising a propellant material arranged to force the concentrate through the outlet opening.
3. A system as recited in claim 2 , in which:
the solvent/carrier comprises approximately 38-58% of by weight of the concentrate; and
the wall texture material comprises approximately 41-61% by weight of the concentrate.
4. A system as recited in claim 2 , in which:
the solvent/carrier comprises approximately 47-67% of by weight of the concentrate; and
the wall texture material comprises approximately 31-51% by weight of the concentrate.
5. A system as recited in claim 1 , in which the concentrate further comprises a color change material.
6. A system as recited in claim 1 , in which the wall texture material comprises a binder material and at least one pigment material.
7. A system as recited in claim 6 , in which the wall texture material further comprises at least one additive selected from the group of additives consisting of a biocide, a defoamer, and a dispersant.
8. A system as recited in claim 6 , in which the concentrate further comprises a color change material.
9. A system as recited in claim 1 , in which the concentrate further comprises a particulate material.
10. A method of dispensing texture material in a desired spray pattern that substantially matches an existing texture pattern on a target surface, the method comprising the steps of:
providing a container assembly defining an inner surface formed at least in part of tin-plated steel;
providing an actuator assembly defining an outlet opening having an adjustable cross-sectional area;
providing a concentrate comprising
a solvent/carrier comprising water,
wall texture material,
a first anti-corrosion material, where the first anti-corrosion material is a phosphate ester and comprises approximately 0.1-5.0% by weight of the concentrate, and
a second anti-corrosion material, where the second anti-corrosion material is sodium nitrite and comprises approximately 0.25-2.00% by weight of the concentrate; wherein
arranging the concentrate within the container assembly such that
the water is exposed to the inner surface of the container assembly, and
at least one of the first and second anti-corrosion materials forms a film that inhibits corrosion on the inner surface of the container assembly; and
adjusting the outlet opening such that the concentrate passes through the outlet opening in a spray pattern that forms the desired texture pattern on the target surface.
11. A method as recited in claim 10 , further comprising the step of arranging a propellant material to force the concentrate through the outlet opening.
12. A method as recited in claim 11 , in which:
the solvent/carrier comprises approximately 38-58% of by weight of the concentrate; and
the wall texture material comprises approximately 41-61% by weight of the concentrate.
13. A method as recited in claim 11 , in which:
the solvent/carrier comprises approximately 47-67% of by weight of the concentrate; and
the wall texture material comprises approximately 31-51% by weight of the concentrate.
14. A method as recited in claim 10 , in which the concentrate further comprises a color change material.
15. A method as recited in claim 10 , in which the wall texture material comprises a binder material and at least one pigment material.
16. A method as recited in claim 15 , in which the wall texture material further comprises at least one additive selected from the group of additives consisting of a biocide, a defoamer, and a dispersant.
17. A method as recited in claim 15 , in which the concentrate further comprises a color change material.
18. A method as recited in claim 10 , in which the concentrate further comprises a particulate material.
