Claims
- 1. A powder coating composition comprising
- a) a resin mixture of
- i) a polyurethane resin having a functional group selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, amino and epoxy functionalities and having a number average molecular weight of between 300 and 5,000
- ii) an acrylic resin having a functional group selected from the group consisting of hydroxy, amino and epoxy functionalities and having a Tg of between 30.degree. and 60.degree. C.
- b) a crosslinking agent, reactable with the functional groups on the polyurethane and acrylic resins.
- 2. The powder coating composition of claim 1, wherein the polyurethane is obtained by reaction of a hydroxy functional polyol selected from the group consisting of alkyl polyols, polyester polyols, polyether polyols and acrylic polyols and isocyanate selected from the group consisting of methylene dicyclohexyl diisocyante, hexamethylene diisocyanate, 2-methyl-1,5-pentane diisocyanate, 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,6-hexane diisocyante, 1,12-dodecane diisocyanate and isophorone diisocyanate.
- 3. The powder coating composition of claim 1, wherein the acrylic resin is hydroxy functional and has a number average molecular weight ranging from 3,000 to 35,000 and has a hydroxyl value of 20 to 120.
- 4. The powder coating composition of claim 1, wherein the polyurethane resin is present in an amount between 5 and 45% by weight, and the acrylic resin is present in an amount between 55 and 95% by weight based on total weight of the resin mixture.
- 5. The powder coating composition of claim 1, wherein the polyurethane resin is present in an amount between 25 and 45% by weight, and the acrylic resin is present in an amount between 55 and 75% by weight based on total weight of the resin mixture.
- 6. The powder coating composition of claim 1, wherein the acrylic resin is hydroxy functional.
- 7. The powder coating composition of claim 1, wherein the urethane resin is hydroxy functional.
- 8. The powder coating composition of claim 1, wherein the polyurethane resin is obtained by reaction of a hydroxy functional polyol and an unblocked aliphatic polyisocyanate.
- 9. The powder coating composition of claim 8, wherein the polyurethane has a ratio of isocyanate equivalents of the isocyanate component to equivalents of hydroxyl groups in the polyol component ranging from 1.0: 2.0 to 9:10.
- 10. The powder coating composition of claim 8, wherein the acrylic resin is a hydroxy functional acrylic resin.
- 11. The powder coating composition of claim 1, wherein the coating composition is a primer coating.
