Abstract
A composition to produce an adherent and water insoluble deposit on substrate surfaces. A coating material for these surfaces is described which can be applied at any temperature up to at least 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit, with the resultant deposit (after drying) being highly adherent and water insoluble. This coating has a liquid phase formed from at least water, a pre-reacted lithium silicate, and unreacted lithium hydroxide monohydrate. Preferably, the liquid phase contains a dispersent in the form of a clay, for example. Typically the pre-reacted Li.sub.2 O-SiO.sub.2 has a SiO.sub.2 :Li.sub.2 O molar ratio of about 4.6:1, and the unreacted LiOH.H.sub.2 O provides from 1/3 to 2/3 the total lithium oxide content, giving a final SiO:Li.sub.2 O molar ratio of the composition of from about 1.71:1 to about 2.97:1. To this liquid phase is added a suitable pigment or other refractory material, at about 6-80 wt % based upon the liquid phase. A range of compositions is discussed as well as typical results. This includes graphite, oxides, borides, nitrides, carbides, sulfides, metals and mixtures thereof. The particular refractory material must be stable in the highly basic condition of the liquid phase.
