Abstract

It is superior in storage stability and workability and gives a coating film with good adhesion and chipping resistance.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to an acrylic resin plastisol coating compound suitable for use as an undercoating material for protection of car bodies or as a sealing material for car bodies.
[0002] It has been common practice to apply an undercoating material to the wheel house, floor underside, and lower exterior of an automobile for their protection from chipping (paint film peeling by pebbles hitting against them). Such undercoating materials are mostly based on polyvinyl chloride resin (PVC) and polyvinyl chloride/polyvinyl acetate copolymer resin. In addition, a PVC-based sealing material is applied to panel joints of a car body for dust- and water-proofing.
[0003] Unfortunately, the conventional undercoating materials and sealing materials (which are composed mainly of polyvinyl chloride resin or polyvinyl chloride/polyvinyl acetate copolymer resin) are liable to give off, upon combustion, hydrogen chloride, dioxin, etc. detrimental to environments. So, chlorine-free substitutes have been sought for.
[0004] A promising substitute for coating compound based on polyvinyl chloride resin is one based on acrylic resin. However, no satisfactory product has been obtained yet which forms coating film with good properties and adhesion required of the undercoating material and sealing material for automotive use.
[0005] Improvement of acrylic resin in adhesion to the adherend (car body) was contemplated by incorporation with polyamide resin. However, the result was poor storage stability and insufficient adhesion of the coating compound.
[0006] Another way to improve adhesion is by incorporation with blocked isocyanate. This adhesion improver poses no problem with storage stability; however, conventional blocked isocyanate intended for PVC-based coating compounds does not provide sufficient adhesion. Moreover, the coating compound containing such blocked isocyanate has the disadvantage that the resulting coating film suffers interfacial failure between electrodeposited plate and coating film before it is broken by abrasion in the abrasion test such as nut-ropping test involving continuous weak shocks. Thus, it does not meet the requirements.
[0007] In general, any adhesion improver is more effective according as its molecular weight increases. However, any adhesion improver with a high molecular weight is viscous per se, and hence it deteriorates the workability of the coating compound containing it. Although it is possible to improve the workability by increasing the amount of plasticizer, the additional plasticizer deteriorates adhesion and characteristic properties.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0008] It is an object of the present invention to provide an acrylic resin plastisol coating compound which exhibits good storage stability and workability and forms a coating film with good adhesion and good chipping resistance.
[0009] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present inventors carried out a series of researches, an acrylic resin plastisol coating compound comprising acrylic resin particles and a self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer having blocked isocyanate groups and hydroxyl groups in the molecule as specifically represented by the general formula (1) below:
1
[0010] (where R denotes a divalent aromatic group and R′ all or partly denotes a polyol residue which is formed by addition to the NCO group represented by the general formula (2) below:
2
[0011] (where R is defined as above.)
[0012] of an aminopolyether polyol represented by the general formula (3) below:
3
[0013] (where n1, n2, and n3 are integers of 1 to 50, and a is an integer of 1 to 12 and b is an integer of 1 to 7.) with the remainder being blocking groups formed by addition of blocking agents to the above-mentioned NCO groups.) exhibits good storage stability and workability and forms a coating film with good adhesion and good chipping resistance.
[0014] In other words, the self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer has in its molecular chain blocked isocyanate groups and hydroxyl groups, so that at the time of baking the blocked isocyanate groups releases the blocking agent to form NCO groups which react with the hydroxyl groups. This reaction causes the molecules of the self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer (as the adhesion improver) to combine with one another and entangle with the molecules of the acrylic resin (as the base resin), thereby forming giant molecules that contribute to adhesion. In addition, the self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer is stable during storage at normal temperature because the NCO groups therein are masked by the blocking agent and prevented from reaction with the hydroxyl groups. Before baking, it remains intact and hence has an adequate degree of viscosity to ensure good workability for the acrylic resin plastisol coating compound. After baking, it gives a coating film which exhibits good chipping resistance, and the coating film does not suffer interfacial failure in the continuous abrasion test such as nut dropping test.
[0015] Thus, the present invention is directed to an acrylic resin plastisol coating compound which comprises containing therein acrylic resin particles and a self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer having blocked isocyanate group and hydroxyl group in the molecule.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0016] The invention will be described in more detail as follows. According to the present invention, the acrylic resin plastisol coating compound contains acrylic resin particles and a self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer having blocked isocyanate groups and hydroxyl groups in the molecule.
[0017] The acrylic resin particles may be any known ones which are usually used for acrylic resin plastisol. They include those of polymer or copolymer polymerized from such monomer as alkyl ester of acrylic or methacrylic acid. Examples of the monomer include methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate, n-utyl (meth)acrylate, and isobutyl (meth)acrylate.
[0018] Acrylic resin particles of core/shell structure are preferable from the standpoint of the characteristic properties and storage stability of the coating compound. The core of such particles should preferably be formed from a homopolymer or copolymer of alkyl acrylate or hydroxyalkyl acrylate having no less than 2 (preferably 3) carbon atoms or alkyl methacrylate or hydroxyalkyl methacrylate having no less than 3 carbon atoms. The core of the particles should also preferable be formed from a copolymer such (meth)acrylate and any of (meth)acrylic acid, maleic acid, itaconic acid, and styrene for better compatibility with plasticizer.
[0019] The shell of such particles should preferably be formed from a homopolymer of methyl methacrylate or a copolymer composed of methyl methacrylate units (80 wt % or above) and any of alkyl (meth)acrylate, hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate, (meth)acrylic acid, maleic acid, itaconic acid, and styrene. The shell should be incompatible with plasticizer. Thus, the shell protects the core from attack by plasticizer until it is melted by heating at a high temperature. After the shell has melted away, the core readily dissolves in plasticizer. Consequently, the coating compound exhibits good characteristic properties and storage stability.
[0020] Incidentally, the acrylic resin particles are not specifically restricted in average particle diameter; however, they should preferably have an average particle diameter of 0.1-100 μm, particularly 0.1-40 μm.
[0021] According to the present invention, the coating compound contains a self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer having blocked isocyanate group and hydroxyl group in the molecule.
[0022] The present invention requires that the self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer have at least one blocked isocyanate group and at least one hydroxyl group in its molecule. In other words, the isocyanate prepolymer as a precursor has its isocyanate groups (NCO groups) blocked partly or entirely by aminopolyether polyol, with the remainder being blocked by any of alcohol, phenol, oxime, caprolactam, amine, and active methylene compound.
[0023] The self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer functions as an adhesion improver. While the coating film is being baked, it releases the blocking agent, thereby crosslinking itself through reaction between NCO group and OH group, and it also causes its molecules to entangle with the molecules of the acrylic resin as the base resin, thereby forming giant molecules. These giant molecules make the coating film firmly adhere to the adherend. The isocyanate prepolymer and the acrylic resin produce a synergistic effect of improving the performance of coating film, especially cold resistance which is a weak point of acrylic resin. Improved cold resistance imparts high elongation to the coating film at low temperatures.
[0024] The self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer is specifically represented by the general formula (1) below:
4
[0025] (where R denotes a divalent aromatic group (preferably tolylene group) and R′ all or partly denotes a polyol residue which is formed by addition to the NCO group represented by the general formula (2) below:
5
[0026] (where R is defined as above.)
[0027] of an aminopolyether polyol represented by the general formula (3) below:
6
[0028] (where n1, n2, and n3 are integers of 1 to 50 (preferably 1 to 30), and a is an integer of 1 to 12 (preferably 1 to 8, most preferably 2) and b is an integer of 1 to 7 (preferably 1 to 5, most preferably 1, especially n1, n2, and n3 are an integer that satisfies n1+n2+n3=50.) with the remainder being blocking groups formed by addition of blocking agents to the above-mentioned NCO groups.)
[0029] In the general formula (1) and (2), a preferred example of the divalent aromatic group represented by R is formed from isocyanate such as toluene diisocyanate (TDI), diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), naphthylene diisocyanate (NDI), or xylylene diisocyanate (XDI), particularly, toluene diisocyanate such as 2,4-TDI and 2,6-TDI, and the NCO groups in the prepolymer represented by the general formula (2) are partly or entirely blocked by aminopolyether polyol (such as an adduct of N-polyoxypropylene ethylenediamine) represented by the general formula (3), with the remainder being blocked by any other blocking agent.
[0030] The blocking agent mentioned above may be any known one which has been used to block the NCO group. In order that it releases itself at the baking temperature of coating film, it should be selected one or more kind of blocking agent from alcohol, phenol, oxime, caprolactam, amine, active methylene compound, or the like, with oxime being preferable. Of these compounds, those which are capable of dissociation at low temperatures (below 140° C., particularly below 120° C.) are desirable. Their examples include methylethylketoxime, t-butylphenol (and other C1-4 alkyl phenols), ethyl acetoacetate, and dicyclohexylamine (and other dicyloalkylamines).
[0031] The self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer may be obtained by a series of reactions as follows. First, an isocyanate compound, such as tolylenediisocyanate (2,4-TDI), is reacted with a polyether polyol (an adduct of glycerin with propylene oxide) in the presence of dibutyltin dilaurate (catalyst) to give an isocyanate prepolymer. Second, the prepolymer is reacted with a blocking agent, such as methylethylketoxime. Third, the blocked prepolymer is reacted with an aminopolyether polyol, such as N-polyoxypropylene ethylenediamine (an adduct of ethylenediamine with propylene oxide).
[0032] The thus obtained self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer may contain some unreacted adducts. Such residual adducts function as a crosslinking agent for the isocyanate prepolymer when the coating film is baked.
[0033] The self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer according to the present invention may be used in the form of a mixture with a blocked isocyanate prepolymer in which all the NCO groups are blocked by the blocking agent only, without aminopolyether polyol added thereto.
[0034] The amount of the self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer in the coating compound should preferably be 10-200 pbw, particularly 30-100 pbw, for 100 pbw of the acrylic resin. An excessively small amount tends to make the coating film poor in adhesion; and an excessively large amount tends to make the coating compound poor in workability due to high viscosity. Incidentally, the self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer may be used alone or more than one kind thereof in combination.
[0035] In addition, the self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer should preferably have an average molecular weight of 3,000-100,000, particularly 3,500-30,000. An excessively small molecular weight leads to poor adhesion, and an excessively large molecular weight leads to high viscosity. The blocking agent should preferably have a dissociation temperature in the range of 100-140° C., particularly 100-120° C. A dissociation temperature lower than 100° C. leads to poor stability and a dissociation temperature higher than 140° C. leads to poor adhesion (due to incomplete decomposition that occurs at unevenly heated parts at the time of baking).
[0036] The coating compound of the present invention may be incorporated with any organic or inorganic blowing agent, particularly one which decomposes at 130-180° C. (especially 130-140° C.) coinciding with the ordinary drying/baking temperature in production of undercoated steel sheets for automobiles. The blowing agents may be used in combination with one another or with a blowing auxiliary. Any blowing agent with a decomposition temperature higher than 180° C. does not blow as desired at 120-160° C. Any blowing agent with a decomposition temperature lower than 130° C. prematurely expands before curing, resulting in a coating film with inadequate expansion. It also tends to make the coating compound poor in storage stability.
[0037] Examples of the blowing agent include organic ones (such as azo compounds, nitroso compounds, hydrazine compounds, and derivatives thereof) and inorganic ones (such as bicarbonate). Their specific examples include 4,4′-oxybisbenzenesulfonylhydrazide (OBSH), p-toluene-sulfonylazide, and p-methylurethanebenzenesulfonylhydrazide. A combination of OBSH and azodicarbonamide (ADCA) is desirable as a blowing agent. Incidentally, although ADCA has a decomposition temperature higher than 180° C. when used alone, it decreases in decomposition temperature to 130-180° C. when used in combination with an adequate blowing auxiliary. A blowing agent (such as OBSH) or a mixture of blowing agents may be used in combination with a blowing auxiliary, as long as the decomposition temperature remains at 130-180° C.
[0038] Any known blowing auxiliary may be used, which includes metal oxides (such as zinc oxide and magnesium oxide), metal soaps (such as zinc stearate), urea compounds, and amines. These blowing agents may also be used for other purposes. For example, a metal soap may be used as a surface treating agent for an inorganic filler (such as calcium carbonate). A metal soap used as a surface treating agent may be regarded as a blowing auxiliary so long as it lowers the decomposition temperature of the blowing agent.
[0039] The blowing agent mentioned above should be used sparingly so that the coating compound will not absorb much moisture. Its adequate amount is less than 15 pbw for 100 pbw of acrylic resin particles (as the base material). There is no specific lower limit; however, an adequate amount should be selected so that an expanding ratio of 2.0-3.5 times is achieved.
[0040] The coating compound of the present invention may be incorporated with any crosslinking agent which reacts with NCO groups or OH groups at the time of baking the coating film. The one which reacts with NCO groups include those compounds containing active hydrogen, such as hydroxyl groups, amino groups, hydrazide groups, and mercapto groups. The one which reacts with OH groups include those compounds containing isocyanate groups, chlorosulfonate groups, and epoxy groups.
[0041] Incidentally, the coating compound would become poor in storage stability if a liquid polyamide amine is used as the amino group-containing crosslinking agent. To address this problem, it should be used in combination with an amine- or hydrazine-based latent curing agent which is an inactive powder at normal temperature but becomes an active melt upon heating.
[0042] The coating compound of the present invention should preferably be incorporated further with any known plasticizer. Examples of the plasticizer include phthalate esters, phosphate esters, adipate esters, and sebacate esters. Typical phthalate esters are dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), dihexyl phthalate (DHP), di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DOP), diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP), butylbenzyl phthalate (BBP), diisononyl phthalate (DINP), and dinonyl phthalate (DNP). Typical phosphate esters are tricresyl phosphate (TCP) and trixylene phosphate (TXP). Typical adipate esters are dioctyl adipate (DOA) and diisodecyl adipate (DIDA). Typical sebacate esters are dibutyl sebacate (DBS) and dioctyl sebacate (DOS). Of these examples, phthalate ester plasticizers are more desirable. They may be used alone or in combination with one another.
[0043] The amount of the plasticizer should preferably be 80-200 pbw, particularly 100-180 pbw, for 100 pbw of acrylic resin. Insufficient plasticizer leads to less flexible coating film, and excess plasticizer leads to sticky coating film.
[0044] The coating compound of the present invention may optionally be incorporated with a solvent, such as paraffinic, naphthenic, and aromatic hydrocarbon with a boiling point of 150-250° C., for its improvement in spray workability. The amount of the solvent should be 0-50 pbw, preferably 5-50 pbw, more preferably 10-40 pbw, for 100 pbw of the acrylic resin. Excess solvent (more than 50 pbw) will evaporate during baking, causing cracking and foaming to the coating film.
[0045] The coating compound of the present invention should preferably be incorporated with filler, for example, an inorganic filler such as calcium carbonate, barium sulfate, clay, diatomaceous earth, silica, and talc. They may be used alone or in combination with one another. It is also possible to add hollow particles, such as glass balloons and resin balloons, or heat-expanding resin balloons.
[0046] The amount of the filler should preferably be 50-300 pbw, particularly 70-150 pbw, for 100 pbw of the acrylic resin. Insufficient filler makes the coating compound poor in flow and delivery at the time of spray coating. Excess filler leads to coating film with poor physical properties (low flexibility).
[0047] The coating compound of the present invention may optionally be incorporated with 0-20 pbw, particularly 0-10 pbw, of fumed silica for 100 pbw of the acrylic resin, in order to impart antisagging properties and thixotropic properties. Moreover, it may also be incorporated with 0-100 pbw, particularly 20-80 pbw, of flame retardant (such as aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide) for 100 pbw of the acrylic resin, and it may also be incorporated with 0-50 pbw, particularly 5-20 pbw, of moisture-preventing agent (such as calcium oxide), for 100 pbw of the acrylic resin.
[0048] The coating compound of the present invention may be prepared in any manner without specific restrictions. It can be prepared by thoroughly mixing the above-mentioned essential and optional components in any known mixer (such as kneader and roll).
[0049] The acrylic resin plastisol coating compound of the present invention can be formed into an acrylic gel coating compound upon gelation. Gelation is accomplished by heating at about 70-240° C. for 2 minutes to 2 hours in accordance with the composition of the acrylic resin plastisol and the condition of the specific operation.
[0050] The acrylic resin plastisol coating compound of the present invention is superior in storage stability and workability and gives a coating film superior in adhesion and chipping resistance. In addition, being free of halogens (such as chlorine) and other harmful substances, it is environmentally sound and superior to PVC-based coating compounds in performance.
[0051] The acrylic resin plastisol coating compound of the present invention will find use as an undercoating material and a sealing material for cars, trucks, and busses, the former being applied to the wheel house, floor underside, and body exterior for their chipping and rusting resistance and sound proofing, the latter being applied to the panel joints of the car body for dust- and water-proofing.
[0052] The coating compound of the present invention may be applied, dried, and baked in any known manner. The baking (curing) temperature of the coating film should preferably be 120-180° C., particularly 130-160° C. The thickness of the coating film should be adequately selected according to the purpose of coating. For use as high-performance non-foaming thin undercoating, a desirable thickness is 0.2-1.0 mm, particularly 0.3-0.5 mm. For use as foamed undercoating (with a blowing agent and/or heat-expanding resin balloons), a desirable thickness is 1-6 mm, particularly 1-4 mm, with a foaming ratio of 1.1-3.5 times, particularly 1.4-3.0 times.
EXAMPLES
[0053] The invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following examples, which are not intended to restrict the scope thereof.
Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6
[0054] Samples of foamable acrylic resin plastisol coating compound were prepared from the components shown in Table 1. The resulting coating compound was applied to a substrate to form a wet coating film with a prescribed thickness (in wet state). The wet coating film was baked under prescribed conditions, and the resulting coating film was evaluated.
[0055] The blocked isocyanate as one of the components was selected from the following four products.

[0057] Method of Production:
[0058] A flask equipped with a stirrer, thermometer, and nitrogen gas inlet was charged with 174 pbw of tolylene diisocyanate (2,4-TDI), 1000 pbw of polyether polyol (having an average molecular weight of 3000, formed from one equivalent of glycerin and 50 equivalents of propylene oxide added thereto), and 0.3 pbw of dibutyltin dilaurate (as a catalyst). Reaction was carried out by stirring under a nitrogen stream, with the reactants kept at 50-80° C., to give a urethane prepolymer. This urethane prepolymer was made into a blocked urethane prepolymer by reaction (at 30-50° C.) with methylethylketoxime as a blocking agent (84 pbw (96.5% equivalent)), which was added dropwise. This blocked urethane prepolymer was incorporated with 73 pbw of aminopolyether polyol (an adduct of one equivalent of ethylenediamine with four equivalents of propylene oxide). Reaction was carried out by heating at 50-80° C. until the reaction product became free of isocyanate groups, which was known from disappearance of the peak (at 2260 cm−1) due to isocyanate groups from the infrared absorption spectrum. Thus there was obtained the desired self-crosslinking blocked isocyanate prepolymer.
