Abstract
Abstract of the Disclosure A novel coating for waterproofing and sealing a rigid structural unit using a styrene polymeric film cast from an organic solvent is disclosed. The coating is easily maintained as damaged areas and imperfections can be repaired by simply applying additional liquid composition to the damaged area, and the liquid composition remelts the existing film allowing the newly formed film to be continuous. In addition, the composition can be applied to structural units in sub-freezing temperatures or to wet surfaces. Novel methods relating to the use of the liquid coating composition are also disclosed.

METHOD OF WATERPROOFING RIGID STRUCTURAI- MATE~IAI.~;
Field of the Invention This invention relates generally to the field of waterproofing and sealing rigid structures. In particular, the invention relates to a method of waterproofing and sealing a rigid structural unit using a styrene polymeric film cast from an organic solvent.
Back~round of the Invention Masonry structures are porous and are susceptible to cracking due to distortion caused by movement of their foundation, vibration, and/or drying out subsequent to their construction. In addition, below grade structures are often subjected to hydrostatic pressure from ground water. Therefore, waterproofing and sealing below grade masonry structures have been ma~or concerns for a number of years. Masonry structures have been coated with various tar-based and asphaltic compositions. These compositions are relatively inexpensive and can be applied year-round if heated to a pliable state.
However, these compositions generally contain leachable components which can contaminate the surrounding soil.
In add.ition, these compositions contain substantial -amounts of organic materials which are attacked by 80il~
and water-borne microorganisms and have a ~hort useful life before decomposition of substantial pathways through the coatings. -;~
Numerous synthetic coatings, such as acrylic, polyurethane and rubber-based or rubberized coatings, ;
and more elaborate waterproofing/sealing systems based on polyvinyl and polyethylene sheeting have been developed to address the shortcomings of the tar-based and asphaltic compositions. ~any of the coating compositions are aqueous emulsions or latexes of the poly~eric resins. The resulting films generally are short-lived as they are subject to degradation caused by -soil acids and microorganisms. These compositions have generally resulted in effective application systems only when applied under non-free~ing conditions. To reduce ` ` 2~8~40 attack on acrylic coatings, including rubberized acrylic, antifungal component~ are often included in the compositions. However, these components can leach into the soil and may be only temporarily effective.
Rubberized coatings generally provide fragile membranes which are easily dama~ed and ruptured during further work and backfilling around the masonry structures and may be easily oxidized. Rubberized acrylic, water-based coatings are not effective for 10 application at below freezing temperatures, and can suffer from microorganism attack. Other rubberized coatings include rubberized asphalt which suffers from the inclusion of organic impurities which can be attacked and decomposed by microorganisms. In addition, 15 the rubberized coatin~s cannot easily be applied by brush or roller.
Polyurethane compositions generally result in unstable coatings due to plasticizer migration and exposure to sunlight to result in brittle and friable 20 coatings. Once applied, many polyurethanes continue to evolve formaldehyde vapors which are highly undesirable.
These compositions are often foamed and applied as insulating coating~.
The waterproofing/sealing systems based on polyvinyl ~5 and polyethylene sheeting generally have open seams and generally require black mastics or metal fasteners such as nails, etc., to adhere the sheeting to the masonry 1 surfaces. The sheets are usually UV-sensitive and can ¦ be susceptible to fungus and insect attack. In 30 addition, the sheets are difficult to form around non-uniform surfaces, and the nails puncture the sheet and may puncture cement blocks to provide a direct water ~ channel into the interior of the block wall.
t Beyond the problems discussed above, the state of 35 the art coating compositions are generally fragile, and they must be protected during backfilling of earth around the masonry structures. Without such protection, i i, . ~ . . .. . . ;, ~ ,~ - :
208~9~0 the sheets or coatings can be ruptured, torn, pulled down along vertical surfaces by the backfill, etc.
Further, many of these coating systems require that the masonry structure be dry or contain only a trace of dampness which requires careful protection of the structure before application of the waterproofing/sealing system.
Recently crystallizing waterproofing products have become available fro~ producers such a~ AKONA, BONDEX ::
and Xypex Chemical Corporation. These compositions generally are powders which include Portland cement, silica sand and other active chemical~. The compositions are applied as a slurry in water to concrete surfaces, and they penetrate cracks and pores in concrete and other cementitious structures. When the compositions cure, they generally form a crystalline coating which reacts with and bonds to cementitious surfaces. While these compositions are generally very effective, they require careful application to perform up to their designed specifications. Careful preparation of the surfaces and the use of two or more coats of slightly different layers are necessary to ensure complete waterproofing of the structure. In I addition to the labor intensive application, the ¦ 25 compositions themselves are rather expensive, and therefore, the system is rather costly to apply. Thus these systems are of rather limited use where very high performance is required to justify the cost.
Therefore, a new, low cost, waterproof sealant is 30 needed for use in a majority of waterproofing -applications which is durable and has a long effective life span. In addition, a new method of waterproofing and sealing subterranean masonry structure~ is needed which is useful year round, even in northern latitudes, ¦ 35 and which can be applied to wet masonry surfaces.

208~9~0 Summary of the Invention To overcome the deficiencies in the current methods of waterproofing and sealing rigid structural units, a new procedure has been developed. The procedure includes the steps of applying a liquid coatinq composition to the structural unit, and drying ~he liquid composition to form a film having an average water vapor permeability of less than about 1*10-2 perms-inch. The liquid coating composition is a styrene polymeric resin in an organic solvent. In one embodiment, the liquid coating compoBition i8 combination of about 100 parts by weight of a styrene polymeric resin binder; about 150 to 400 phr of an organic solvent; about 0 to 50 phr of a plasticizer;
about 0 ko 200 phr of a filler; and about 0 to 100 phr of a particulate solid selected from the group consisting of an opacifying agent and a pigment.
The procedure can also include the step of filling defects in the structural unit with a liquid composition comprising a polystyrene resin and portland cement in an organic solvent. This particular liquid composition is very compatible with the liquid waterproofing/~ealing I composition, and it can be covered with the ¦ waterproofing/sealing composition with little delay.
The procedure is operable over a wide range of temperatures, from well below free~ing to in excess of 100 F, and to surfaces which are wet or dry. Further, the resulting coating is tough, and adheres strongly to the ma~onry structure. In addition, the waterproofing/sealing composition rapidly dries to a coating layer which can be backfilled without any protective device~ or layers.
It has also been discovered that the waterproofing coating is very versatile. The coating can be used to waterproof below grade masonry structures as discussed above, and it can also be used to form a protective, waterproof coating on other rigid ~tructural materials . ~
~v 5 2~85~0 such as bathroom walls, tub and shower enclosures, pool enclosures, car wash facilities, etc. The coating can be the only coating, or it can be overlaid with tiles, painted, or otherwise decorated.
As used herein the ~pecification and the claim~, the phrase "a rigid structural unit-~ is intended to include the following, non-limiting list of rigid structural materials such as wood, metal, stone and stone products, concrete and concrete products, composite materials, brick, tile, terra-cotta, and the like. In addition, the term "masonry" is intended to include the following, non-limiting list of inorganic materials such as stone and stone products, concrete and concrete products, clay products, brick, tile, terra-cotta, and the like. The unit of measure "phr~ is a weight based measurement of parts of a particular component based on 100 parts by weight of the binder component in the composition.
Detailed Description of the Invention Riqid Structural Units The present invention is useful in methods for protecting subterranean masonry structures. These masonry structures may be foundations, basement walls, retaining walls, cement posts, and the like. The structures may include poured concrete, block and mortar, and the like. The masonry structures may ultimately be completely buried, or may be partially exposed to the atmosphere. The masonry structures may or may not comprise reinforcing bars, rod, mesh, and the like.
The invention also relates to waterproofing and protecting other rigid structural units such as bathroom walls, tub and shower enclosures, pool enclosures, car wash facilities, highway structures (including wood and cementitious), wooden portion~ of semi-trailer beds, wooden fence posts and other wooden structures which may ~ be buried in soil such as foundations which can be ¦ sub~ected to chemical attack from fertilizers, farm ,:
208~9~
chemicals, etc. Basically, the invention is useful to waterproof str~ctures which are less flexible than the coating itself. In other words, if the waterproof coating which results from the application of the liquid coating composition is ~lightly more flexible and elastic than the surface to be coated, the movement of that surface after application of the coating will not cause cracks in the coating. Therefore, the coating will remain an effective water barrier. While the invention is particularly useful in waterproofing building foundations, it can be used to waterproof structural units wherever the u~e of the volatile organic carrier is acceptable.
In one embodiment, the masonry structure comprises the foundation and basement walls of a residential or commercial building. These structures generally are formed in excavations in the earth, and may be built under diverse weather and temperature conditions.
Generally, the structures are exposed to all weather conditions prior to backfilling or other protecti~n.
The structures may also have defects which require filling prior to coating. Such defects can be cracks and fissures, and they can be a result of concrete form - ties, cold ~oints in concrete, and the like.
WaterProofin~/Sealina Coatina comPosition The liquid coating composition comprises a styrene polymeric re~in binder in an organic solvent. In a preferred embodiment, the liquid coating composition is combination of about 100 parts by weight of a binder resin comprising a styrene polymer; about 150 to 400 phr of an organic solvent; about 0 to 50 phr of a plasticizer; about 0 to 200 phr of a filler; and about 0 ~ to 100 phr of a particulate solid selected from the group consisting of an opacifying agent and a pigment.
~ 35 The resin binder may be a styrene homopolymer Q (polystyrene), a copolymer including styrene, a mixture ~ of polystyrene and one or more polymers, or a 2085~0 combination of the above. The styrene copolymer may be a comprise styrene and a rubbery diene co-monomer including isoprene, butadiene, and the like, or it may comprise co-monomers such as acrylonitrile, acrylates, 1-~
olefins such as butylene, and the like. These copolymers may be random or block copolymers. The styrene polymeric resin can be a general purpose grade, crystalline, high impact, or moderate impact grade of polystyrene. Increasing amounts of styrene copolymers such as styrene~butadiene and styrene-isoprene tend to increase the difficulty in completely dissolving the binder resin, but it is possible to use high impact polystyrene and moderate impact polystyrene resins in the present invention. Preferably, the styrene resin 15 comprises a general purpose grade or moderate impact ~ -grade of polystyrene.
A non-limiting list of other polymers which may be mixed with the styrene polymer to form the binder resin includes polypropylene oxide; vinyl polymers such as polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and ethylene-vinyl acetate; polyvinylidene chloride; polyethylene;
poly(ethyl ether); acrylics; acrylates, methacrylates, and methacrylate copolymers; and the like.
Preferably the styrene resin forms at least about 85 wt-~ of the polymeric binder resin, more preferably, at least about 90 wt-~, and mo~t preferably, at least about 95 wt-% of the polymeric binder resin. If the proportion of styrene resin is too low, it may be -difficult to completely dissolve the binder resin in the elected solvent. In addition, too small a proportion of styrene in the binder resin may reduce the remelting i of the waterproofing film in repair operations discussed ~ below.
¦ The styrene polymeric resin used in the present invention may be modified by plasticizers, coupling agents, and the like. Such modified resins include high 2~85~40 impact polystyrene such as styrene-butadiene modified high impact and medium impact polystyrene.
The resin binder may be virgin resin, reground resin, recycled resins, or a mixture thereof. Again, the styrene polymeric resin may be mLxed with other resins such as styrene-butadiene rubbers, and the like, to increase the toughness of the resulting film.
Preferably, the resin binder is a styrene polymeric resin having at least 85 wt-~ styrene homopolymer. More preferred, the styrene polymeric resin is a general purpoqe grade polystyrene, which may be clear virgin resin, reground resin or recycled resin. Most preferably, the resin binder comprises clear reground or recycled general purpose grade polystyrene resin.
About 100 parts by weight of the resin binder is dissolved in a suitable organic solvent in order to carry the coating components uniformly through the composition. The amount of solvent used may be selected by the formulator of the liquid composition in order to provide the desired amount of solids, thickness, drying time, etc., in the formulated composition. Preferably, the solvent is present at about 150 to 400 phr, more preferably, at about 180 to 350 phr, and most preferably at about ~50 to 300 phr. Persons sXilled in the art will be able to easily select an appropriate solvent for ~ the particular binder resin used. Some solvents which ¦ are commonly used include methylene chloride, ethylene chloride, trichloroethane, chlorobenzene, acetone, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, butyl acetate, isobutyl isobutyrate, benzene, toluene, xylene, ethyl benzene, and cyclohexanone. If acrylics or acrylates are used in a mixture with the styrene polymer, it may be helpful to use a co-solvent such as tetrahydrofuran to increase the solubility of both resins in the liquid composition.
Preferred solvents include aromatic hydrocarbons such as chlorobenzene, benzene, toluene, xylene, and ethyl benzene.
~, , 2~9~0 The plasticizer may be liquid or solid, and is preferably present in an amount sufficient to increase the toughness and flexibility of the film coating. The film coating is more flexible and elastic than the masonry structure substrate. A non-limiting li~it of useful plasticizers for the present invention include butyl stearate, dibutyl maleate, dibutyl phthalate, dibutyl sebacate, diethyl malonate, dimethyl phthalate, dioctyl adipate, dioctyl phthalate, butyl benzyl phthalate, benzyl phthalate, octyl benzyl phthalate, ethyl cinnamate, methyl oleate, tricresyl phosphate, trimethyl phosphate, tributyl phosphate and trioctyl adipate. Persons skilled in the art will be able to select the type and requisite combination of properties needed in the plasticizer to modify the binder resin.
Preferred plasticizers include liquid phthalate plasticizers such as dioctyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate, butyl benzyl phthalate (SANTICIZER~ 160), benzyl phthalate, and octyl benzyl phthalate (SANTICIZER~ 261).
Preferably, the plasticizer is included in the liquid composition at about 0 to S0 phr, depending upon the nature of the resin binder and the desired toughness, elasticity, and related properties in the dried film. Nore preferably, the plasticizer is included at about 5 to 30 phr, and most preferably, it is present at about 10 to 20 phr.
The filler component of the composition is useful to increase the strength of the resulting film layer. The filler also decreases the amount of the more expensive binder resin needed in the composition, increases the bulk and weight of the resulting film, and otherwise modifies the physical properties of the film and film forming composition. The major modification~ which can ~ -be achieved with fillers are changes of color or opacity, changes of density, increase of solids content, change of rheology, increase in stiffness or modulus of ' :., - , ~ ~ , 2 ~
the coating, and change~ in the affinity of the coating for various adhesives, cements, mortars, and the like.
A non-limiting list of useful fillars for the present invention include carbonates, clays, talcs, silica~
including fumed silica and amorphous silica, silizo-aluminates, aluminum hydrate, oxides (zinc or magnesium), silicates (calcium or magnesium), sand, cement powder, mortar powder, and the like. Preferred fillers include magnesium silicate, fumed silica, sand, and cement powder.
Preferably, the filler is included in the liquid composition at about 0 to 200 phr, depending upon the nature of the resin binder and the desired toughness, elasticity, and compatibility of the dried film. More preferably, the filler is included at about 50 to 150 phr, and most preferably, it is present at about 60 to 100 phr.
Particulate solids useful in the present invention are pigments and opacifying agents. These components are useful to impart color to the composition to allow the user to determine coverage of the structure and to j render the film coating relatively impervious to UV
i, light. Thus, the pigments and opacifying agents can help to protect the film from UV degradation. Pigments --~
and opacifying agents can be powders, lakes, metal flakes, and the like. A non-limiting list of useful pigments and/or opacifying agents for the present invention include titanium dioxides; iron lakes; iron oxide such as vermillion red, yellow and black; and the like. Preferred pigments and opacifying agents include titanium dioxide, iron oxides, and iron lakes.
Preferably, the particulate solid pigments and opacifying agents are included in the liquid composition at about 0 to 100 phr. More preferably, the particulate solids are included at about 1 to 25 phr, and most preferably, they are present at about 1 to 10 phr. If the particulate solid pigments and/or opacifiers are :
208~9~0 present at too great an amount, the film will prematurely skin over and the solids may settle and cake. The resulting film will be of poorer quality.
The liquid composition may be prepared by combining the binder resin and organic solvent in a vessel and allowing the components to rest undisturbed overnight. --The resin/solvent combination can then be mixed for about 30 minutes. The mixture should be relatively clear to indicate a high level of dissolution of the resin in the solvent. Increasing opacity of the mixture signals a high level of plasticizer or other polymers in the mixture~
Plasticizers, fillers, pigments, etc., can then be added and mixing continued for about 45 minutes or until the liquid mixture appears creamy and all particles within the mixture appear to be uniform when viewed throuqh a falling film of the mixture. Of course, adding mild heat to the mixing vessel will decrea~e mixing time necessary, and beginning agitation immediately will eliminate the need to allow the resin/solvent combination to rest overnight. However, agitation will generally exceed 30 minutes.
The liquid composition is relatively viscous, preferably pa~sing through a 3/8 inch aperture of a 3-1/4 ounce full radius viscosity cup in about 12-20 seconds at 60F and, more preferably, about 15-20 seconds at 60F, and has a solids content of about 35 to 65 wt-~, and forms a film having an average water vapor permeability of less than about 1*10-2 perms-inch. More ` 30 preferably, the solids content is about 40 to 55 wt-~, ~ and the average water vapor permeability is less than ¦ about 8*10-3 perms-inch. Most preferably, the solids content is about 50 wt-%, and the permeability is less than about 6*10-3 perms-inch.
Application of the Coatin~ ComPOSitiOn The coating composition can be applied to the exterior of any below grade masonry structure, or it can ., .
.~
., .
` ` 2Q~94~
be applied to the interior of a structure such as below grade masonry walls, ceilings, etc., in basements, tunnels, retaining walls, cement posts, and the like, or elsewhere as discussed above. In coating foundations, the composition is applied on the exterior of the below grade structure prior to backfilling. The exterior coating using the composition of present invention of the structure resists water pressure and provides a waterproof coating to keep the in~erior of the ma~onry structure dry and relatively free of aqueous-induced degradation of reinforcing steel structures. In addition, the coating greatly reduces interior humidity in basements of structures. Interior coatings of masonry walls, ceilings, etc., using the composition of present invention strongly adhere to the masonry sub~trate to resist hydrostatic pressure and effloresce which often destroys paints and coatings on many below grade masonry surfaces.
The liquid coating composition can be applied by rolling, brushing, spraying, spraying and backrolling, etc. Preferably, the coating is applied by transfer pump at about two to three gallons/minute from a container to the surface of the structure followed by rolling or brushing as with standard waterproofing paints. After application, the coating can dry rapidly under average ambient conditions. However, in extreme cold temperatures or high humidity, the drying of the coating can be more prolonged. Generally, under moderate humidity in the shade at about 70 F, a coating having a wet thickness of about 35 mils will dry to a non-tacky, non-fluid state in about 4 hours. Upon drying, the coated composition can be backfilled without damaging the waterproof coating. At the other extreme, under winter conditions of about 25 F and low humidity, the same coating will dry in about 12 hours (overnight~.
Imperfections and damage in the resulting dried coating can be simply repaired by application of 2~8~0 additional liquid composi$ion over the area to be repaired. The solvent carrier remelts the underlying coating, and the repaired area dries to form a continuous film. This i8 in marked contrast to prior art systems and most paints which form layers with repeated applications.
To repair the dried coating from the interior of a structure, a small hole can be drilled through the structure from the inside, and a sufficient amount of the liquid composition to saturate the repair area can be pumped through the hole to the exterior surface of the structure. The liquid composition will remelt the original coating and will reform a continuous waterproof coating over the exterior surface of the structure.
After the repair is complete, the drilled hole can be refilled and patched from the interior of the structure.
Filler ComPosition The filler composition comprises a polystyrene resin binder and an inorganic filler in an organic solvent.
The resin binder and organic solvent may be as discussed above. The inorganic filler is preferably added to the composition as a powder or larger particulate solid. A
non-limiting list of u~eful inorganic filler6 for the present invention include portland cement, natural cement, mortar, sand, and crushed aggregate. The filler composition generally comprises about 100 parts by weight of the resin binder, about 50 to 200 phr of the inorganic filler and sufficient organic solvent to form a paste. In a preferred embodiment, filler composition ' 30 comprises about 75 to 150 phr of the inorganic filler -and about 80 to 2S0 phr of the organic solvent, and more preferably, the filler comprises about 100 to 120 phr of the inorganic filler and less than about 180 phr of the ;; organic solvent. The filler composition can be applied by trowel, roller, brush, caulk gun, or other processes normally used for applying heavy mastics and slurries.
~;
. "
2~8~
The filler composition has a solids content of at least about 60 wt-% and more preferably about 80 to 90 wt-%.
In coating the filler composition with the coating composition, the organic solvent can remelt the resin bind~r to form a strong ~oint between tha filler and coating compositions. The filler composition can be coated with the waterproofing/sealing composition essentially immediately or as soon as the filler composition attains a non-tacky state.

The water vapor "permeance", measured in "permi", is the time rate of water vapor transmission through unit area of a flat material induced by a vapor preisure difference between two specific surfaces, under specified temperature and humidity conditions. The thickness of a material is not factored into a measure of "permeance". Thus, the "perms", or the rate of water vapor transfer, iB decreased as the specimen thickness is increased.
The water vapor "permeability" is the time rate of water vapor transmissicn through unit area of flat material of unit thickness induced by unit vapor pressure difference between two specific surfaces, under specific temperature and humidity conditions.
"Permeability" is the arithmetic produce of permeance and thickness.

TEST METHODS
The water vapor transmission test was conducted in accordance with ASTM E96-90, "Standard Test Methods for Water Vapor Transmission of Materials." The te~t was conducted using both the dry-cup and wet-cup methods at conditions of 73 F and 50% RH. Several 2.8" diameter specimens from each sample group were tested. Each specimen was sealed, suing a rubber gasket or wax, in an aluminum water vapor transmission test cup containing dried anhydrous calcium chloride or deionized water.
The test assemblies were placed in a Blue M model FR-446PF-2 calibrated environmental chamber, serial number F2-809, with conditions set at 73+2F and 50+2% RH.
Weight gain was monitored daily up until steady-state vapor transfer was achieved. The permeance for each specimen was calculated based on computer-generated graphs of the steady-state vapor transfer.

METHOD OF WATERPROOFING RIGID STRUCTURAI- MATE~IAI.~;
Field of the Invention This invention relates generally to the field of waterproofing and sealing rigid structures. In particular, the invention relates to a method of waterproofing and sealing a rigid structural unit using a styrene polymeric film cast from an organic solvent.
Back~round of the Invention Masonry structures are porous and are susceptible to cracking due to distortion caused by movement of their foundation, vibration, and/or drying out subsequent to their construction. In addition, below grade structures are often subjected to hydrostatic pressure from ground water. Therefore, waterproofing and sealing below grade masonry structures have been ma~or concerns for a number of years. Masonry structures have been coated with various tar-based and asphaltic compositions. These compositions are relatively inexpensive and can be applied year-round if heated to a pliable state.
However, these compositions generally contain leachable components which can contaminate the surrounding soil.
In add.ition, these compositions contain substantial -amounts of organic materials which are attacked by 80il~
and water-borne microorganisms and have a ~hort useful life before decomposition of substantial pathways through the coatings. -;~
Numerous synthetic coatings, such as acrylic, polyurethane and rubber-based or rubberized coatings, ;
and more elaborate waterproofing/sealing systems based on polyvinyl and polyethylene sheeting have been developed to address the shortcomings of the tar-based and asphaltic compositions. ~any of the coating compositions are aqueous emulsions or latexes of the poly~eric resins. The resulting films generally are short-lived as they are subject to degradation caused by -soil acids and microorganisms. These compositions have generally resulted in effective application systems only when applied under non-free~ing conditions. To reduce ` ` 2~8~40 attack on acrylic coatings, including rubberized acrylic, antifungal component~ are often included in the compositions. However, these components can leach into the soil and may be only temporarily effective.
Rubberized coatings generally provide fragile membranes which are easily dama~ed and ruptured during further work and backfilling around the masonry structures and may be easily oxidized. Rubberized acrylic, water-based coatings are not effective for 10 application at below freezing temperatures, and can suffer from microorganism attack. Other rubberized coatings include rubberized asphalt which suffers from the inclusion of organic impurities which can be attacked and decomposed by microorganisms. In addition, 15 the rubberized coatin~s cannot easily be applied by brush or roller.
Polyurethane compositions generally result in unstable coatings due to plasticizer migration and exposure to sunlight to result in brittle and friable 20 coatings. Once applied, many polyurethanes continue to evolve formaldehyde vapors which are highly undesirable.
These compositions are often foamed and applied as insulating coating~.
The waterproofing/sealing systems based on polyvinyl ~5 and polyethylene sheeting generally have open seams and generally require black mastics or metal fasteners such as nails, etc., to adhere the sheeting to the masonry 1 surfaces. The sheets are usually UV-sensitive and can ¦ be susceptible to fungus and insect attack. In 30 addition, the sheets are difficult to form around non-uniform surfaces, and the nails puncture the sheet and may puncture cement blocks to provide a direct water ~ channel into the interior of the block wall.
t Beyond the problems discussed above, the state of 35 the art coating compositions are generally fragile, and they must be protected during backfilling of earth around the masonry structures. Without such protection, i i, . ~ . . .. . . ;, ~ ,~ - :
208~9~0 the sheets or coatings can be ruptured, torn, pulled down along vertical surfaces by the backfill, etc.
Further, many of these coating systems require that the masonry structure be dry or contain only a trace of dampness which requires careful protection of the structure before application of the waterproofing/sealing system.
Recently crystallizing waterproofing products have become available fro~ producers such a~ AKONA, BONDEX ::
and Xypex Chemical Corporation. These compositions generally are powders which include Portland cement, silica sand and other active chemical~. The compositions are applied as a slurry in water to concrete surfaces, and they penetrate cracks and pores in concrete and other cementitious structures. When the compositions cure, they generally form a crystalline coating which reacts with and bonds to cementitious surfaces. While these compositions are generally very effective, they require careful application to perform up to their designed specifications. Careful preparation of the surfaces and the use of two or more coats of slightly different layers are necessary to ensure complete waterproofing of the structure. In I addition to the labor intensive application, the ¦ 25 compositions themselves are rather expensive, and therefore, the system is rather costly to apply. Thus these systems are of rather limited use where very high performance is required to justify the cost.
Therefore, a new, low cost, waterproof sealant is 30 needed for use in a majority of waterproofing -applications which is durable and has a long effective life span. In addition, a new method of waterproofing and sealing subterranean masonry structure~ is needed which is useful year round, even in northern latitudes, ¦ 35 and which can be applied to wet masonry surfaces.

208~9~0 Summary of the Invention To overcome the deficiencies in the current methods of waterproofing and sealing rigid structural units, a new procedure has been developed. The procedure includes the steps of applying a liquid coatinq composition to the structural unit, and drying ~he liquid composition to form a film having an average water vapor permeability of less than about 1*10-2 perms-inch. The liquid coating composition is a styrene polymeric resin in an organic solvent. In one embodiment, the liquid coating compoBition i8 combination of about 100 parts by weight of a styrene polymeric resin binder; about 150 to 400 phr of an organic solvent; about 0 to 50 phr of a plasticizer;
about 0 ko 200 phr of a filler; and about 0 to 100 phr of a particulate solid selected from the group consisting of an opacifying agent and a pigment.
The procedure can also include the step of filling defects in the structural unit with a liquid composition comprising a polystyrene resin and portland cement in an organic solvent. This particular liquid composition is very compatible with the liquid waterproofing/~ealing I composition, and it can be covered with the ¦ waterproofing/sealing composition with little delay.
The procedure is operable over a wide range of temperatures, from well below free~ing to in excess of 100 F, and to surfaces which are wet or dry. Further, the resulting coating is tough, and adheres strongly to the ma~onry structure. In addition, the waterproofing/sealing composition rapidly dries to a coating layer which can be backfilled without any protective device~ or layers.
It has also been discovered that the waterproofing coating is very versatile. The coating can be used to waterproof below grade masonry structures as discussed above, and it can also be used to form a protective, waterproof coating on other rigid ~tructural materials . ~
~v 5 2~85~0 such as bathroom walls, tub and shower enclosures, pool enclosures, car wash facilities, etc. The coating can be the only coating, or it can be overlaid with tiles, painted, or otherwise decorated.
As used herein the ~pecification and the claim~, the phrase "a rigid structural unit-~ is intended to include the following, non-limiting list of rigid structural materials such as wood, metal, stone and stone products, concrete and concrete products, composite materials, brick, tile, terra-cotta, and the like. In addition, the term "masonry" is intended to include the following, non-limiting list of inorganic materials such as stone and stone products, concrete and concrete products, clay products, brick, tile, terra-cotta, and the like. The unit of measure "phr~ is a weight based measurement of parts of a particular component based on 100 parts by weight of the binder component in the composition.
Detailed Description of the Invention Riqid Structural Units The present invention is useful in methods for protecting subterranean masonry structures. These masonry structures may be foundations, basement walls, retaining walls, cement posts, and the like. The structures may include poured concrete, block and mortar, and the like. The masonry structures may ultimately be completely buried, or may be partially exposed to the atmosphere. The masonry structures may or may not comprise reinforcing bars, rod, mesh, and the like.
The invention also relates to waterproofing and protecting other rigid structural units such as bathroom walls, tub and shower enclosures, pool enclosures, car wash facilities, highway structures (including wood and cementitious), wooden portion~ of semi-trailer beds, wooden fence posts and other wooden structures which may ~ be buried in soil such as foundations which can be ¦ sub~ected to chemical attack from fertilizers, farm ,:
208~9~
chemicals, etc. Basically, the invention is useful to waterproof str~ctures which are less flexible than the coating itself. In other words, if the waterproof coating which results from the application of the liquid coating composition is ~lightly more flexible and elastic than the surface to be coated, the movement of that surface after application of the coating will not cause cracks in the coating. Therefore, the coating will remain an effective water barrier. While the invention is particularly useful in waterproofing building foundations, it can be used to waterproof structural units wherever the u~e of the volatile organic carrier is acceptable.
In one embodiment, the masonry structure comprises the foundation and basement walls of a residential or commercial building. These structures generally are formed in excavations in the earth, and may be built under diverse weather and temperature conditions.
Generally, the structures are exposed to all weather conditions prior to backfilling or other protecti~n.
The structures may also have defects which require filling prior to coating. Such defects can be cracks and fissures, and they can be a result of concrete form - ties, cold ~oints in concrete, and the like.
WaterProofin~/Sealina Coatina comPosition The liquid coating composition comprises a styrene polymeric re~in binder in an organic solvent. In a preferred embodiment, the liquid coating composition is combination of about 100 parts by weight of a binder resin comprising a styrene polymer; about 150 to 400 phr of an organic solvent; about 0 to 50 phr of a plasticizer; about 0 to 200 phr of a filler; and about 0 ~ to 100 phr of a particulate solid selected from the group consisting of an opacifying agent and a pigment.
~ 35 The resin binder may be a styrene homopolymer Q (polystyrene), a copolymer including styrene, a mixture ~ of polystyrene and one or more polymers, or a 2085~0 combination of the above. The styrene copolymer may be a comprise styrene and a rubbery diene co-monomer including isoprene, butadiene, and the like, or it may comprise co-monomers such as acrylonitrile, acrylates, 1-~
olefins such as butylene, and the like. These copolymers may be random or block copolymers. The styrene polymeric resin can be a general purpose grade, crystalline, high impact, or moderate impact grade of polystyrene. Increasing amounts of styrene copolymers such as styrene~butadiene and styrene-isoprene tend to increase the difficulty in completely dissolving the binder resin, but it is possible to use high impact polystyrene and moderate impact polystyrene resins in the present invention. Preferably, the styrene resin 15 comprises a general purpose grade or moderate impact ~ -grade of polystyrene.
A non-limiting list of other polymers which may be mixed with the styrene polymer to form the binder resin includes polypropylene oxide; vinyl polymers such as polyvinyl chloride, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and ethylene-vinyl acetate; polyvinylidene chloride; polyethylene;
poly(ethyl ether); acrylics; acrylates, methacrylates, and methacrylate copolymers; and the like.
Preferably the styrene resin forms at least about 85 wt-~ of the polymeric binder resin, more preferably, at least about 90 wt-~, and mo~t preferably, at least about 95 wt-% of the polymeric binder resin. If the proportion of styrene resin is too low, it may be -difficult to completely dissolve the binder resin in the elected solvent. In addition, too small a proportion of styrene in the binder resin may reduce the remelting i of the waterproofing film in repair operations discussed ~ below.
¦ The styrene polymeric resin used in the present invention may be modified by plasticizers, coupling agents, and the like. Such modified resins include high 2~85~40 impact polystyrene such as styrene-butadiene modified high impact and medium impact polystyrene.
The resin binder may be virgin resin, reground resin, recycled resins, or a mixture thereof. Again, the styrene polymeric resin may be mLxed with other resins such as styrene-butadiene rubbers, and the like, to increase the toughness of the resulting film.
Preferably, the resin binder is a styrene polymeric resin having at least 85 wt-~ styrene homopolymer. More preferred, the styrene polymeric resin is a general purpoqe grade polystyrene, which may be clear virgin resin, reground resin or recycled resin. Most preferably, the resin binder comprises clear reground or recycled general purpose grade polystyrene resin.
About 100 parts by weight of the resin binder is dissolved in a suitable organic solvent in order to carry the coating components uniformly through the composition. The amount of solvent used may be selected by the formulator of the liquid composition in order to provide the desired amount of solids, thickness, drying time, etc., in the formulated composition. Preferably, the solvent is present at about 150 to 400 phr, more preferably, at about 180 to 350 phr, and most preferably at about ~50 to 300 phr. Persons sXilled in the art will be able to easily select an appropriate solvent for ~ the particular binder resin used. Some solvents which ¦ are commonly used include methylene chloride, ethylene chloride, trichloroethane, chlorobenzene, acetone, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, butyl acetate, isobutyl isobutyrate, benzene, toluene, xylene, ethyl benzene, and cyclohexanone. If acrylics or acrylates are used in a mixture with the styrene polymer, it may be helpful to use a co-solvent such as tetrahydrofuran to increase the solubility of both resins in the liquid composition.
Preferred solvents include aromatic hydrocarbons such as chlorobenzene, benzene, toluene, xylene, and ethyl benzene.
~, , 2~9~0 The plasticizer may be liquid or solid, and is preferably present in an amount sufficient to increase the toughness and flexibility of the film coating. The film coating is more flexible and elastic than the masonry structure substrate. A non-limiting li~it of useful plasticizers for the present invention include butyl stearate, dibutyl maleate, dibutyl phthalate, dibutyl sebacate, diethyl malonate, dimethyl phthalate, dioctyl adipate, dioctyl phthalate, butyl benzyl phthalate, benzyl phthalate, octyl benzyl phthalate, ethyl cinnamate, methyl oleate, tricresyl phosphate, trimethyl phosphate, tributyl phosphate and trioctyl adipate. Persons skilled in the art will be able to select the type and requisite combination of properties needed in the plasticizer to modify the binder resin.
Preferred plasticizers include liquid phthalate plasticizers such as dioctyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate, butyl benzyl phthalate (SANTICIZER~ 160), benzyl phthalate, and octyl benzyl phthalate (SANTICIZER~ 261).
Preferably, the plasticizer is included in the liquid composition at about 0 to S0 phr, depending upon the nature of the resin binder and the desired toughness, elasticity, and related properties in the dried film. Nore preferably, the plasticizer is included at about 5 to 30 phr, and most preferably, it is present at about 10 to 20 phr.
The filler component of the composition is useful to increase the strength of the resulting film layer. The filler also decreases the amount of the more expensive binder resin needed in the composition, increases the bulk and weight of the resulting film, and otherwise modifies the physical properties of the film and film forming composition. The major modification~ which can ~ -be achieved with fillers are changes of color or opacity, changes of density, increase of solids content, change of rheology, increase in stiffness or modulus of ' :., - , ~ ~ , 2 ~
the coating, and change~ in the affinity of the coating for various adhesives, cements, mortars, and the like.
A non-limiting list of useful fillars for the present invention include carbonates, clays, talcs, silica~
including fumed silica and amorphous silica, silizo-aluminates, aluminum hydrate, oxides (zinc or magnesium), silicates (calcium or magnesium), sand, cement powder, mortar powder, and the like. Preferred fillers include magnesium silicate, fumed silica, sand, and cement powder.
Preferably, the filler is included in the liquid composition at about 0 to 200 phr, depending upon the nature of the resin binder and the desired toughness, elasticity, and compatibility of the dried film. More preferably, the filler is included at about 50 to 150 phr, and most preferably, it is present at about 60 to 100 phr.
Particulate solids useful in the present invention are pigments and opacifying agents. These components are useful to impart color to the composition to allow the user to determine coverage of the structure and to j render the film coating relatively impervious to UV
i, light. Thus, the pigments and opacifying agents can help to protect the film from UV degradation. Pigments --~
and opacifying agents can be powders, lakes, metal flakes, and the like. A non-limiting list of useful pigments and/or opacifying agents for the present invention include titanium dioxides; iron lakes; iron oxide such as vermillion red, yellow and black; and the like. Preferred pigments and opacifying agents include titanium dioxide, iron oxides, and iron lakes.
Preferably, the particulate solid pigments and opacifying agents are included in the liquid composition at about 0 to 100 phr. More preferably, the particulate solids are included at about 1 to 25 phr, and most preferably, they are present at about 1 to 10 phr. If the particulate solid pigments and/or opacifiers are :
208~9~0 present at too great an amount, the film will prematurely skin over and the solids may settle and cake. The resulting film will be of poorer quality.
The liquid composition may be prepared by combining the binder resin and organic solvent in a vessel and allowing the components to rest undisturbed overnight. --The resin/solvent combination can then be mixed for about 30 minutes. The mixture should be relatively clear to indicate a high level of dissolution of the resin in the solvent. Increasing opacity of the mixture signals a high level of plasticizer or other polymers in the mixture~
Plasticizers, fillers, pigments, etc., can then be added and mixing continued for about 45 minutes or until the liquid mixture appears creamy and all particles within the mixture appear to be uniform when viewed throuqh a falling film of the mixture. Of course, adding mild heat to the mixing vessel will decrea~e mixing time necessary, and beginning agitation immediately will eliminate the need to allow the resin/solvent combination to rest overnight. However, agitation will generally exceed 30 minutes.
The liquid composition is relatively viscous, preferably pa~sing through a 3/8 inch aperture of a 3-1/4 ounce full radius viscosity cup in about 12-20 seconds at 60F and, more preferably, about 15-20 seconds at 60F, and has a solids content of about 35 to 65 wt-~, and forms a film having an average water vapor permeability of less than about 1*10-2 perms-inch. More ` 30 preferably, the solids content is about 40 to 55 wt-~, ~ and the average water vapor permeability is less than ¦ about 8*10-3 perms-inch. Most preferably, the solids content is about 50 wt-%, and the permeability is less than about 6*10-3 perms-inch.

be applied to the interior of a structure such as below grade masonry walls, ceilings, etc., in basements, tunnels, retaining walls, cement posts, and the like, or elsewhere as discussed above. In coating foundations, the composition is applied on the exterior of the below grade structure prior to backfilling. The exterior coating using the composition of present invention of the structure resists water pressure and provides a waterproof coating to keep the in~erior of the ma~onry structure dry and relatively free of aqueous-induced degradation of reinforcing steel structures. In addition, the coating greatly reduces interior humidity in basements of structures. Interior coatings of masonry walls, ceilings, etc., using the composition of present invention strongly adhere to the masonry sub~trate to resist hydrostatic pressure and effloresce which often destroys paints and coatings on many below grade masonry surfaces.
The liquid coating composition can be applied by rolling, brushing, spraying, spraying and backrolling, etc. Preferably, the coating is applied by transfer pump at about two to three gallons/minute from a container to the surface of the structure followed by rolling or brushing as with standard waterproofing paints. After application, the coating can dry rapidly under average ambient conditions. However, in extreme cold temperatures or high humidity, the drying of the coating can be more prolonged. Generally, under moderate humidity in the shade at about 70 F, a coating having a wet thickness of about 35 mils will dry to a non-tacky, non-fluid state in about 4 hours. Upon drying, the coated composition can be backfilled without damaging the waterproof coating. At the other extreme, under winter conditions of about 25 F and low humidity, the same coating will dry in about 12 hours (overnight~.
Imperfections and damage in the resulting dried coating can be simply repaired by application of 2~8~0 additional liquid composi$ion over the area to be repaired. The solvent carrier remelts the underlying coating, and the repaired area dries to form a continuous film. This i8 in marked contrast to prior art systems and most paints which form layers with repeated applications.
To repair the dried coating from the interior of a structure, a small hole can be drilled through the structure from the inside, and a sufficient amount of the liquid composition to saturate the repair area can be pumped through the hole to the exterior surface of the structure. The liquid composition will remelt the original coating and will reform a continuous waterproof coating over the exterior surface of the structure.
After the repair is complete, the drilled hole can be refilled and patched from the interior of the structure.
Filler ComPosition The filler composition comprises a polystyrene resin binder and an inorganic filler in an organic solvent.
The resin binder and organic solvent may be as discussed above. The inorganic filler is preferably added to the composition as a powder or larger particulate solid. A
non-limiting list of u~eful inorganic filler6 for the present invention include portland cement, natural cement, mortar, sand, and crushed aggregate. The filler composition generally comprises about 100 parts by weight of the resin binder, about 50 to 200 phr of the inorganic filler and sufficient organic solvent to form a paste. In a preferred embodiment, filler composition ' 30 comprises about 75 to 150 phr of the inorganic filler -and about 80 to 2S0 phr of the organic solvent, and more preferably, the filler comprises about 100 to 120 phr of the inorganic filler and less than about 180 phr of the ;; organic solvent. The filler composition can be applied by trowel, roller, brush, caulk gun, or other processes normally used for applying heavy mastics and slurries.
~;
. "
2~8~
The filler composition has a solids content of at least about 60 wt-% and more preferably about 80 to 90 wt-%.
In coating the filler composition with the coating composition, the organic solvent can remelt the resin bind~r to form a strong ~oint between tha filler and coating compositions. The filler composition can be coated with the waterproofing/sealing composition essentially immediately or as soon as the filler composition attains a non-tacky state.

The water vapor "permeance", measured in "permi", is the time rate of water vapor transmission through unit area of a flat material induced by a vapor preisure difference between two specific surfaces, under specified temperature and humidity conditions. The thickness of a material is not factored into a measure of "permeance". Thus, the "perms", or the rate of water vapor transfer, iB decreased as the specimen thickness is increased.
The water vapor "permeability" is the time rate of water vapor transmissicn through unit area of flat material of unit thickness induced by unit vapor pressure difference between two specific surfaces, under specific temperature and humidity conditions.
"Permeability" is the arithmetic produce of permeance and thickness.

TEST METHODS
The water vapor transmission test was conducted in accordance with ASTM E96-90, "Standard Test Methods for Water Vapor Transmission of Materials." The te~t was conducted using both the dry-cup and wet-cup methods at conditions of 73 F and 50% RH. Several 2.8" diameter specimens from each sample group were tested. Each specimen was sealed, suing a rubber gasket or wax, in an aluminum water vapor transmission test cup containing dried anhydrous calcium chloride or deionized water.
The test assemblies were placed in a Blue M model FR-446PF-2 calibrated environmental chamber, serial number F2-809, with conditions set at 73+2F and 50+2% RH.
Weight gain was monitored daily up until steady-state vapor transfer was achieved. The permeance for each specimen was calculated based on computer-generated graphs of the steady-state vapor transfer.
