Description
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE

The present invention relates to a novel one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition, which is especially suitable for waterproofing coating applications.


INTRODUCTION

Hitherto, polyurethane prepolymer compositions have been widely used in applications to, for example, sealants, inner and outer use adhesives, and waterproofing materials for roofs, wall surfaces, etc. The polyurethane prepolymer compositions comprise reaction products of isocyanates and polyols. The polyurethane prepolymer compositions are roughly classified into a one-component type that could be cured by water in air and a two-component type in which a base compound containing a NCO terminated polyurethane prepolymer and a curing agent containing an active hydrogen compound are mixed to be cured during application.


The one-component type polyurethane prepolymer compositions do not require mixing operations during constructions, and hence the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer compositions have advantages in that workability can be simplified and curing failure caused by mixing mistake can be prevented.


The one-component type polyurethane prepolymer compositions are desired to have relatively low viscosities. First, low viscosity ensures good wettability on the surface, which helps the reaction between isocyanate end groups and the moisture in the environment, which further helps the formation of polymer network so that enables its good mechanical strength and adhesion to fillers. Second, low viscosity decreases usage of solvent, and in turn further lower volatile organic compounds (VOC) level of final coatings. Third, lower viscosity allows higher filler amount in formulations so that coatings are more cost-effective.


Toluene diisocyanate (TDI) or pure methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) mixture composed of approximately 50 weight percent (wt %) 4,4′-MDI and 50 wt % 2,4′-MDI, having an isocyanate equivalent weight of 125.5 (MDI-50) is commonly used as a reactant to prepare the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer compositions, and usually amounts to more than 50 wt % of the total weight of polyisocyanate as the reactant in order to achieve good performance.


However, TDI residual in the final coating may be concerned extremely harmful to the environment and human health since TDI has a high vapor pressure of 0.01 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) at 25 Celsius degree (° C.). Considering the above health hazard, people in the art are trying to use MDI to replace TDI for the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer compositions. MDI is classified as “low toxic” by the European Community and has a relatively low vapor pressure at 25° C. so that its residual in the final coating represents less hazards to human and to the environment. However, 4,4′-MDI has a melting point at about 38° C. that causes difficulties in both handling and storage in broad applications. Consequently, MDI-50 is one promising solution to achieve comparable performance with low toxic. But, MDI-50 is often facing supply issue. Due to the high demand of MDI-50, its economical problems are unavoidable.


In view of the above situations, an object of the present invention is to provide a one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition having a flexible selection of different commonly used or other types of polyisocyanates to react with polyol blend while exhibiting desired or even better performances of low viscosity and high tear strength, with a suppressed cost increase. The present invention is especially suitable for waterproofing coating applications

The aliphatic isocyanate crosslinker may be an aliphatic diisocyanate such as hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI); a trimer of such diisocyanate; an aliphatic triisocyanate; and also a polymer derived from these homopolymerized or copolymerized monomers, or derived from the addition of a polyol or of a polyamine with one or more of these monomers, with the polyol or the polyamine possibly being a polyether, a polyester, a polycarbonate, or a polyacrylate. In some embodiments, the aliphatic isocyanate crosslinker has an NCO functionality equal to or above 3.


Optionally, from 0 to 0.5 wt %, based on the total weight of the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition, a storage stability-improving agent (dehydration agent) is used for the purpose of improving the storage stability of the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition. Specific examples thereof include vinyltrimethoxysilane, calcium oxide, and p-toluenesulfonyl isocyanate (PTSI), which function as the dehydration agent by a reaction with water that is present in the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition.


Optionally, from 0 to 2 wt %, based on the total weight of the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition, a colorant is used for the purpose of coloring the one-component type composition to impart a design property to a cured product.

Commercially available defoaming agents useful of the present invention include FT-301 and FT-3065 available from Fit Brother, BYK-A 530, BYK-A 535 and BYK-066 N from BYK.


Optionally, from 0 to 0.5 wt %, preferably from 0.1 wt % to 0.4 wt %, based on the total weight of the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition, a wetting dispersant is used in the preparation of the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition. Commercially available wetting dispersants useful of the present invention include FT-203 available from Fit Brother, BYK-W 980 available from BYK.


The one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition of the present invention can be produced by mixing the above mentioned reactants and the necessary additives. In some embodiments, the reactants are present from 25 wt % to 100 wt %, or from 25 wt % to 50 wt %, or from 25 wt % to 37 wt %, based on the total weight of one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition.


The preparation of the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition is in any way known to those of ordinary skill in the art. The one-component type polyurethane prepolymer compositions of the present invention are prepared according to any conventional method, for example, under the environment wherein moisture is eliminated as far as possible, for example, under a reduced pressure.


In an embodiment, the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition is prepared by reacting the above mentioned polyisocyanate and the polyol blend to form a prepolymer, and then mix with the additives.


Preparation of MDI prepolymers is in any way known to those of ordinary skill in the art, and includes condensation polymerization. The stoichiometry of the MDI prepolymer formulation disclosure is such that the diisocyanate is present in excess, and the MDI prepolymer is NCO group terminated. In some embodiments, the molar ratio of NCO group to OH group is much higher than 2, therefor the product is the mixture of MDI prepolymer and unreacted MDI monomer. The stoichiometry ratio is also referred to as an isocyanate index, which is the equivalents of isocyanate groups (i.e., NCO moieties) present, divided by the total equivalents of isocyanate-reactive groups (e.g., OH moieties) present. Considered in another way, the isocyanate index is the ratio of the isocyanate groups over the isocyanate reactive hydrogen atoms present in a formulation, given as a ratio and may be given as a percentage when multiplied by 100. Thus, the isocyanate index expresses the isocyanate actually used in a formulation with respect to the amount of isocyanate theoretically required for reacting with the amount of isocyanate-reactive hydrogen used in a formulation. The preparation of MDI prepolymer and the MDI prepolymer composition is free of water.


Curing is performed by exposing the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition to moisture. This is mainly done in at least two ways. In one approach, the moisture is simply atmospheric moisture, which comes into contact with the mixture and reacts with the isocyanate groups. In the other main approach, liquid water and/or steam is added into the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer compositions.


Curing can be performed at ambient temperature, or at some elevated temperature, such as up to 80° C.


In certain applications, such as general horizontal flat surface of roof, corner part of roof connected with vertical wall, the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition is spread upon the ground, leveled and smoothed, and then allowed to cure at ambient temperature, typically with atmospheric moisture. Water may be sprayed onto the spread one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition if desired or necessary (as may be the case in a dry climate or under high temperature conditions) in order to speed the cure. In installations of this type, a certain amount of open time is needed, so that the one-component type polyurethane prepolymer composition remains workable long enough for the mixing, spreading, leveling and smoothing steps can be performed.


In the present invention, the technical features in each preferred technical solution and more preferred technical solution can be combined with each other to form new technical solutions unless indicated otherwise. For briefness, the specification omits the descriptions for these combinations. However, all the technical solutions obtained by combining these technical features should be deemed as being literally described in the present specification in an explicit manner.


In order to further illustrate this invention the following examples are presented. However, it should be understood that the invention is not limited to these illustrative examples.

II. Test Methods


(a) Viscosity measurement: viscosity (unit: pascal-second (Pa·s)) was measured by advanced Rhometric Expansion System G2 (ARES G2) at the following condition: 25 millimeter (mm) steel parallel plate, temperature at 25° C., shear rate at 0.1/second and screen for 180 seconds.


(b) Tear Strength Test:


Film Preparation


Ethacure 300 curative, available from Albemarle Company, was added into the prepolymer composition. The amounts of curative may be calculated by the following formula:







C

100

p


=


NCO


%
×

C

Theory

4202





Wherein “C100p” is the parts curative per 100 parts prepolymer composition, “NCO %”, also called isocyanate content, is the percent of the remaining NCO content of the prepolymer composition, determined by reaction with excess di-n-butylamine and back titration with standardized hydrochloric acid. “Cew” is the equivalent weight of the curative, and “% Theory” is the stoichiometry for the curative. In general, Ethacure 300 curative has an equivalent weight of 107 and 90% to 95% stoichiometry. Thus, for example, the calculated amount of a curative with an equivalent weight of 107 and 95% stoichiometry cured with a prepolymer composition having 4.8 NCO % would be 11.6 parts of curative per 100 parts prepolymer composition on a mass basis.


Then, the mixture of prepolymer composition and Ethacure 300 curative was blended by a SpeedMixer laboratory mixer system from FlackTek Inc. at 3000 revolutions per minute (RPM) for 30 seconds, and turned to dark brown, deep purple or even black. Then, the mixture was poured onto a release paper and a film was formed. The film was made at the thickness about 1.0 mm to 1.3 mm, and cured at 80° C. for 30 minutes. After stripping from the release paper, the film was further post cured at 60° C. for 24 hours.


Tear Strength Test


Tear strength test was applied through Trousers Type Method, also called the Double Tongue Method. The film was cut by a molder to trousers like shape with a V-notch fixture. The thickness of the sample was measured prior to the tear strength test. When clamping, sample tongue is clamped in the center of clamps, symmetrical. Two legs of sample, parallel to the direction of tearing, are clamped symmetrically in removable clamps. Pay attention to ensuring each tongue is fixed in clamps, so that tear is parallel to tearing direction when tear starts. Start the machine to tear the sample from both tongue until it was fully broken, marking the end of this test. Tearing load and tearing length of each sample is recorded. The observation should be done on whether tear is processed in the direction of applied force and whether yarns slip away from the fabric. If the sample does not slip away from the clamps and tear is conducted along the direction of applied force, the test results can be acknowledged, otherwise, removed. Tear strength is obtained by dividing the maximum tear load by the thickness of each sample. The test was repeated 3 times to calculate an average tear strength.


III. Examples
