Abstract

A colored composition including a resin system, and a colorized filler. The colorized filler includes particles including a polymer. The particles have a density less than 2.6 g/cc and an average particle size from 100 microns to 600 microns.

Claims (15)

1. A grout comprising:

a resin system; and

a colorized filler comprising particles comprising a polymer, the particles having a density less than 2.6 g/cc and an average particle size from 100 microns to 600 microns.

2. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the particles have a density less than 2.0 g/cc.

3. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the system comprises a liquid polymeric binder.

4. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the resin system comprises a two-part epoxy, a two-part polyurethane, or a combination thereof.

5. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the resin system comprises a reactive binder.

6. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the resin system comprises at least one from the group of epoxy, polyurethane, and polyacrylate.

7. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the colorized filler comprises at least one from the group of plastic, rubber, latex, and vinyl.

8. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the colorized filler comprises at least one from the group of polyester, polycarbonate, and polyacrylate.

9. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the colorized filler comprises at least one from the group of polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl chloride, high density polyethylene, low density polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, acrylonitrile butadiene, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, fiberglass, and nylon.

10. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the density of the grout is less than 1.6 kg per liter.

11. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the density of the grout is less than 1.5 kg per liter.

12. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the density of the grout is less than 1.4 kg per liter.

13. The grout of claim 1 , wherein the colorized filler is present in an amount from 10 percent to 70 percent by weight of the grout.
