A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This invention provides a moldable engineered stone composition comprising an ethylenically unsaturated acrylic polymer capable of being covalently crosslinked, a mineral particulate, and an ionic crosslinking agent which forms ionic bonds within the syrup of unsaturated acrylic polymer via unreacted acid groups, causing thickening prior to curing and prior to the formation of covalent bonds via the double bonds of the polymer chain. The composition is then capable of being extruded and molded in a press. Articles formed by curing the composition and methods for producing the composition are also disclosed.
