Composition for insulating coating
A composition includes flakes of mineral or plant-based wool, a powdered mineral binder and a water-repellent agent.
1 . A composition comprising flakes of mineral or plant-based wool, a powdered mineral binder and a water-repellent agent, wherein the composition comprises 50 to 90% by weight of mineral or plant-based wool, 10 to 50% by weight of mineral binder and 0.1 to 2% by weight of water-repellent agent, relative to a cumulative weight of mineral or plant-based wool and mineral binder.
2 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the mineral wool is chosen from glass wools, slag wools and stone wools.
3 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the flakes of mineral or plant-based wool have a size of between 1 and 10 cm.
4 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the powdered mineral binder is a hydraulic binder.
5 . The composition according to claim 4 , wherein the powdered mineral binder comprises a mixture of Portland cement, a source of calcium sulfate, and optionally aluminate cement.
6 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the water-repellent agent comprises an organosilicon compound.
7 . The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the water-repellent agent is in powder form.
8 . The composition according to claim 6 , wherein the water-repellent agent comprises an organosilicon compound and an inorganic or organic solid support, or is a redispersible powder.
9 . The composition according to claim 1 , further comprising redispersible polymer powders and/or surfactants.
10 . The composition according to claim 4 , wherein the hydraulic binder is selected from the group consisting of Portland cements, belite cements, aluminous cements, sulfoaluminate cements, pozzolan blend cements, fly ash, metakaolins, hydraulic lime and mixtures of two or more of these hydraulic binders.
11 . The composition according to claim 6 , wherein the organosilicon compound comprises silane and/or siloxane, monomer, dimeric, oligomeric or polymeric groups.
12 . A method for obtaining an insulating coating on or against a support, comprising mixing a composition according to claim 1 with water and depositing the mixture obtained on or against said support.
13 . The method according to claim 12 , wherein the deposition of the mixture is carried out by spraying, the composition being conveyed to a spray nozzle, and the water being added as soon as possible to an outlet of the nozzle.
14 . The method according to claim 12 , wherein the support is vertical, the deposition being carried out on the exterior surface of said wall.
15 . The method according to claim 14 , wherein the support is vertical is an exterior wall of a building.
