In this embodiment, it is particularly preferred that the polyol component for preparation of the isocyanate-terminated prepolymer comprise a polyol containing at least one carboxylic acid group, optionally in combination with a monohydric alcohol containing a carboxylic acid group. For this purpose, various hydroxy acids can be employed including such compounds as dimethylol propionic acid, 2,4,6-trihydroxybenzoic acid, 4,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-pentanoic acid, and the like, optionally in combination with hydroxy acids such as hydroxyacetic acid, beta-hydroxy propionic acid, alpha-hydroxy butyric acid, mandelic acid, hydroxy caproic acid, and the like.

In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the polyester polyol has an average molecular weight ranging from about 170 to about 2,000. Examples of suitable polycarboxylic acids include: phthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid; trimellitic acid; tetrahydrophthalic acid, hexahydrophthalic acid; tetrachlorophthalic acid; adipic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid; succinic acid; malic acid; glutaric acid; malonic acid; pimelic acid; suberic acid; 2,2-dimethylsuccinic acid, 3,3-dimethylglutaric acid; 2,2-dimethylglutaric acid; maleic acid; fumaric acid; itaconic acid; and the like. Anhydrides of the above acids, where they exist, can also be employed and are encompassed by the term "polycarboxylic acid." In addition, certain materials which perform in a manner similar to acids to form polyester polyols are also useful. Such materials include lactones such as caprolactone, propylolactone and methyl caprolactone, and hydroxy acids such as hydroxy caproic acid and dimethylol propionic acid. If a triol or higher hydric alcohol is used, a monocarboxylic acid, such as acetic acid and benzoic acid, may be used in the preparation of the polyester polyol, and for some purposes, such a polyester polyol may be desirable. Moreover, the term polyester polyols as used herein is intended to encompass polyester polyols optionally modified with fatty acids or glyceride oils of fatty acids (i.e., conventional alkyd polyols containing such modification).
Examples of the optional monohydric alcohols which may be used to prepare the polyester polyols include: ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, n-pentanol; neopentyl alcohol; 2-ethoxyethanol; 2-methoxyethanol; 1-hexanol; cyclohexanol; 2-methyl-2-hexanol; 2-ethylhexyl alcohol; 1-octanol, 2-octanol, 1-nonanol; 5-butyl-5-nonanol; isodecyl alcohol; and the like.

Examples of polyether polyols include the poly-(oxyethylene) glycols and poly(oxypropylene) glycols prepared by the acid or base catalyzed addition of ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide to ethylene glycol, propylene glycol or dipropylene glycol initiators and by the copolymerization of propylene oxide and ethylene oxide with initiator compounds such as trimethylolpropane, glycerol, pentaerylthritol, sorbitol, sucrose and the like. The polyether polyols also include the generally known poly(oxytetramethylene) glycols prepared by the polymerization of tetrahydrofuran in the presence of Lewis acid catalysts such a boron trifluoride, tin (IV) chloride, antimony pentachloride, antimony trichloride, phosphorous pentafluoride, and sulfonyl chloride. Other examples of polyether polyols include the generally known reaction products of 1,2-epoxide-containing compounds with polyols such as those included in the description of simple diols, triols, and higher hydric alcohols above.
Amide-containing polyols are generally known and typically are prepared from any of the above-described diacids or lactones and diols, triols and higher alcohols, and diamines or aminoalcohols as illustrated, for example, by the reaction of neopentyl glycol, adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine. The amide-containing polyols also may be prepared through aminolysis by the reaction, for example, of carboxylates, carboxylic acids, or lactones with aminoalcohols. Examples of suitable diamines and amino-alcohols include hexamethylenediamine, ethylenediamine, phenylenediamine, toluenediamine; monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, N-methyl-monoethanolamine, isophoronediamine, 1,6-menthanediamine and the like.
Polyurethane polyols are generally known. Polyurethane polyols can be produced by reacting any of the above-described polyols, including diols, triols, and higher alcohols, polyester polyols, polyether polyols, and amide-containing polyols with an organic polyisocyanate. The organic polyisocyanate may be reacted with the polyol either directly to form the polyurethane polyol or by the generally known prepolymer technique wherein the polyol and polyisocyanate are reacted in relative proportions to first produce an isocynate-terminated prepolymer with subsequent reaction to the prepolymer with additional polyol to form the polyurethane polyol. Also, mixtures of organic isocyanate prepolymers with monomeric isocyanates (so-called semi-prepolymers) may be employed in the prepolymer technique. The organic polyisocyanate may be any organic polyisocyanate described previously.
Polyester polyols containing modification by fatty acids, (commonly referred to as alkyd polyols) which optionally may be used in the preparation of the isocyanate-terminated prepolymer, are generally known. As used herein, the term "alkyd polyols" refers to alkyd resins containing hydroxyl functionality. They typically are produced by reacting polyhydric alcohols, polycarboxylic acids, and fatty acids derived from drying, semi-drying or non-drying oils in various proportions depending upon the extent of hydroxyl functionality and properties desired in the alkyd polyol. The techniques of preparing alkyd resins are well known generally. Usually, the process involves reacting together the polycarboxylic acid and fatty acid or a partial glyceride thereof and the polyhydric alcohol (the latter usually is stoichiometric excess) in the presence of a catalyst such as litharge, sulfuric acid, or sulfonic acid to effect esterification with evolution of water. Examples of polyhydric alcohols typically used for preparation of the alkyd polyols include the simple diols, triols and higher hydric alcohols known in the art including but not limited to the previously described simple diols, triols and higher hydric alcohols. Examples of polycarboxylic acids suitable for preparation of the alkyd polyols include those set forth previously in the description of polycarboxylic acids useful for preparing the polyester polyols in general. Examples of suitable fatty acids include saturated and unsaturated acids such as stearic acid, oleic acid, ricinoleic acid, palmitic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, licanic acid, elaeostearic acid, clupanodonic acid and mixtures thereof. The fatty acids may be in the form of the free acids with sufficient excess of the polyhydric alcohol being incorporated into the esterification mixture to compensate for their inclusion. However, in many instances, it is preferred to employ glyceride oils which have been partially alcoholized with a sufficient amount of a polyhydric alcohol such as glycerol to supply the requisite amount of available hydroxyls for the formation of the alkyd polyol.
The divalent radical represented by X in formula (I) above can be provided from a compound containing at least 2 carbon atoms, at least 1 functional group reactive with a moiety on the silicon-containing compound, and at least one amino group. Optionally, the divalent radical represented by X in formula (I) can be provided from a compound as described above but additionally containing one or more groups selected from ether, amino, amido, carbamate, urea, and thio.
Typically, compounds which have been utilized herein to provide the divalent radical X in formula (I) include hydroxyl-containing amines such as alkanolamines, dialkanolamines, alkyl alkanolamines, and aryl alkanolamines containing at least 2 and typically no more than 18 carbon atoms in the alkanol, alkyl and aryl chains.

A wide variety of hydroxyl-containing amines can be prepared, for example, in known manner by reacting monoamines or polyamines with a monoepoxide provided that the amine reactant contains at least one primary amino group. Examples of the monoamines and polyamines include: methylamine, ethylamine, n-propylamine, isopropylamine, n-butylamine, tert-butylamine, n-hexylamine, cyclohexylamine, benzylamine, ethylenediamine, diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine, 1,4-diaminobutane, and hexamethylene-diamine. Examples of the monoepoxides include: ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, styrene oxide, cyclohexene oxide, phenyl glycidyl ether, allyl glycidyl ether, tolyl glycidyl ether, the diacetate of a monoglycidyl ether of glycerol; the dipropionate of a monoglycidyl ether of glycerol and epichlorohydrin. The reaction between the amines and monoepoxides is usually effected merely by brining the components together in proper proportions.
Hydroxyl-containing amines which also contain amide groups can be prepared, for example, in known manner by reacting polyamines, such as those described previously for reaction with monoepoxides, with lactones such as caprolactone, propylolactone and methyl caprolactone. Hydroxyl-containing amines which also contain amide and urea groups can be prepared, for example, in known manner by reacting a polyisocyanate or isocyanate-terminated prepolymer, such as those described previously, with an excess of polyamine to form the urea-containing polyamine product and subsequently reacting this product with a lactone to produce the hydroxyl-containing amine which also contains amide and urea groups. Hydroxyl-containing amines which also contain carbamate (i.e. urethane) groups can be prepared, for example, in known manner by reacting polyamines such as those described previously with alkylene carbonates such as propylene carbonate to produce the hydroxyl-containing amines which also contain a carbamate (i.e. urethane) group. An example of another known way of producing hydroxyl-containing amines which also contain carbamate groups is to react a polyisocyanate or isocyanate-terminated prepolymer with an excess of polyamine to form the urea-containing polyamine product and subsequently to react this product with an alkylene carbonate such as propylene carbonate to produce the hydroxyl-containing amine which also contains urea groups can be prepared in known manner by reacting together a polyamine, a hydroxyl-functional amine such as an alkanolamine, etc., and a polyisocyanate or isocyanate-terminated prepolymer. The aforesaid hydroxyl-containing amines are merely illustrative of various hydroxyl-containing amines which are examples of suitable starting materials for providing the divalent radical X in formula (I) for preparing a resin of the invention by reaction of the hydroxyl-containing amine with the organic isocyanate having an average functionality of at least one and a silicon-containing compound corresponding to the following formula (III) ##STR6## wherein R.sup.2 independently represents hydrogen, a C.sub.1 to C.sub.10 alkyl group, a C.sub.4 to C.sub.10 cycloalkyl group, a C.sub.6 to C.sub.10 aryl group, or a monovalent aminoalkyl group, that is directly attached to Si,
Y independently represents a hydrolyzable group that is attached directly to Si,
m is an integer ranging from 1 to 5,
e is a positive integer wherein 1.ltoreq.e.ltoreq.12,
d is a zero or a positive integer wherein 0.ltoreq.d.ltoreq.10, and 4.ltoreq.d+e.ltoreq.12, and
wherein x is a positive number which is equal to or less than the average isocyanate functionality of said organic isocyanate.
A silicon-containing compound for preparing a resin of the invention is organic and is essentially free of alkali metal ions which distinguishes it from known inorganic silicates such as alkali metal silicates including, for example, sodium orthosilicate. Additionally, the silicon-containing compound has groups directly bonded to silicon which are hydrolyzable. Examples of the hydrolyzable groups include ##STR7## and the C.sub.2 to C.sub.3 residue of a 1,2- or 1,3- glycol wherein R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are as set forth previously in the examples for Y under the definitions for formula (II).
Silicon-containing compounds corresponding to formula (III) may by monosilicon-containing and/or polysilicon-containing materials. Examples of monosilicon-containing compounds include compounds such as tetraethylorthosilicate, methyltriethoxysilane, dimethyldimethoxysilane, etc. Examples of polysilicon-containing compounds include hexaethoxydisiloxane, dimethyltetraethoxydisiloxane, octaethoxytrisiloxane, methyl-pentaethoxydisiloxane, as well as compounds containing a plurality of repeating siloxane linkages (i.e., a plurality of ##STR8## linkages). Typically the polysilicon-containing compounds are prepared in generally known manner by the hydrolysis and condensation of monomeric silicon-containing compounds containing silicon atoms attached to substituents convertible to silanol ##STR9## groups. These hydrolysis reactions typically may be illustrated as,
Si(X).sub.4 +H.sub.2 O=(X).sub.3 SiOH+HX,
in which X can be an easily hydrolyzable group such as C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkoxy, ##STR10## which are defined as above. The silanol-containing products are condensed to produce ##STR11## linkages in the silicon-containing compounds. Of course, it should be understood that polymeric silicon-containing compounds include those hydrolyzed and condensed materials prepared from precursors which contain silicon atoms attached to hydrolyzable substituents other than the hydrolyzable groups set forth above, such hydrolyzable substituents including, for example, hydrogen.
It is also considered to be within the scope of the present invention to use mixtures of monosilicon-containing compounds and polysilicon-containing compounds to prepare a resin of the present invention.
By way of illustration, an especially desirable class of monosilicon-containing compounds suitable for preparing resins of the invention include organosilicates. Examples of organosilicates include: tetramethoxysilane, tetraethoxysilane, tetra-n-propoxysilane, methoxytriethoxysilane, and the like.
In a procedure for preparing a resin of the invention, an amino-alcohol such as 2-amino-2-methylpropanol is first reacted with an organosilicate such as tetraethylorthosilicate to produce a product containing aminoalkyloxy and ethoxysilyl groups, which product can be referred to as an aminoalkyloxy silane. During the reaction of the aminoalcohol and the organosilicate, the ethoxysilyl group of the organosilicate reacts with the hydroxyl group of the aminoalcohol to produce an aminoalkyloxy silane. Thereafter, the aminoalkyloxy silane is reacted with an isocyanate-terminated polyisocyanate prepolymer to produce an ungelled resin of the invention which, preferably, is essentially free of isocyanate groups. The above procedure is considered to be merely illustrative of a preferred way to produce a resin of the invention. The following is an illustrative description of additional ways by which resins of the invention can be prepared.
In one procedure for preparing a resin of the invention an excess of a polyamine such as those described previously is reacted with a polyisocyanate or isocyanate-terminated prepolymer to form an amine-terminated product which also contains urea groups. Thereafter, the amine-terminated product is reacted with an alkylene carbonate such as propylene carbonate to form a hydroxyl-functional product which also contains urea and urethane groups. Thereafter, the hydroxyl-functional product is reacted with the silicon-containing compound corresponding to formula (III) to form a resin of the invention.
In another procedure for preparing a resin of the invention a polyamine such as those described previously, a hydroxyl-containing amine such as those described previously, and a polyisocyanate or isocyanate-terminated prepolymer are reacted in relative proportions such that a hydroxyl-functional product which also contains urea groups is obtained which thereafter is reacted with a silicon-containing compound corresponding to empirical formula (III) to form a resin of the invention.
In another procedure for preparing a resin of the invention a polyisocyanate or isocyanate-terminated prepolymer is reacted with an excess of a hydroxyl-containing amine such as those described previously to form a first hydroxyl-functional product containing urea groups. Thereafter, this first hydroxyl-functional product (optionally after reaction with a silicon-containing compound corresponding to formula III above) is reacted at elevated temperature with an alkylene oxide such as ethylene oxide, propylene oxide and the like; or a monoglycidyl ether such as butyl glycidyl ether, phenyl glycidyl ether and the like; or with a monoglycidyl ester such as the glycidyl ester of versatic acid available as CARDURA-E (from Shell Chemical Co.) and the like to form a second hydroxyl-functional product containing urea as well as ether groups. Thereafter, this second hydroxyl-functional product is reacted with a silicon-containing compound corresponding to empirical formula (II) to form a resin of the invention.
In another procedure for preparing a resin of the invention a polyisocyanate or isocyanate-terminated prepolymer is reacted with an excess of a hydroxyl-containing amine such as those described previously to form a first hydroxyl-functional product containing urea groups. Thereafter, this first hydroxyl-functional product is reacted with a lactone such as caprolactone, propylolactone, butyrolactone and methylcaprolactone to form a second hydroxyl-functional product containing urea as well as ester groups. Thereafter, this second hydroxyl-functional product is reacted with a silicon-containing compound corresponding to formula (III) to form a resin of the invention.
It is preferred that a resin of the invention be essentially free of isocyanate radicals.
As can be appreciated from the disclosure and examples herein, a product resin of the invention typically will contain a mixture of compounds. For example, when a resin of the invention is prepared by reacting an isocyanate-functional prepolymer and an aminoalkyloxy silane (e.g., from the reaction of an amino alcohol and a silicon-containing compound corresponding to formula III) the resultant distribution of compounds in the product mixture will be determined at least in part by the statistics of reaction involved in either or both of (1) the reactions leading to formation of the isocyanate-functional prepolymer and (2) the reactions leading to formation of the aminoalkyloxy silane, as well as the reaction involved between the isocyanate-functional prepolymer and the aminoalkyloxy silane. However, one or more compounds corresponding to formula (I) will be present in a resin of the invention.

Examples of suitable polycarboxylic acids include: phthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid; trimellitic acid; tetrahydrophthalic acid, tetrachlorophthalic acid; adipic acid; azelaic acid; sebacic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid; glutaric acid; malonic acid; pimelic acid; suberic acid; 2,2-dimethylsuccinic acid; 3,3-dimethylglutaric acid; 2,2-dimethylglutaric acid; maleic acid; fumaric acid; and itaconic acid. Anhydrides of the above acids, where they exist, can also be employed and are encompassed by the term "polycarboxylic acid". In addition, certain substances which react in a manner similar to acids to form polyesters are also useful. Such substances include lactones such as caprolactone, propylolactone and methyl caprolactone, and hydroxy acids such as hydroxy caproic acid and dimethylolpropionic acid. If a triol or higher hydric alcohol is used, a monocarboxylic acid, such as acetic acid and benzoic acid may be used in the preparation of the polyester resin. Moreover, polyesters which may be used in compositions of the invention are intended to include polyesters modified with fatty acids or glyceride oils of fatty acids (i.e., conventional alkyd resins). Alkyd resins typically are produced by reacting the polyhydric alcohols, polycarboxylic acids, and fatty acids derived from drying, semi-drying, and non-drying oils in various proportions in the presence of a catalyst such a litharge, sulfuric acid, or a sulfonic acid to effect esterification. Examples of suitable fatty acids include saturated and unsaturated acids such as stearic acid, oleic acid, ricinoleic acid, palmitic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, licanic acid, elaeostearic acid, and clupanodonic acid.
Polyether resins are generally known and are prepared by well known techniques. Examples of polyethers include the poly(oxyalkylene) glycols prepared by the acid or base catalyzed addition of an alkylene oxide such as ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide to initiator compounds such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, diethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, trimethylolpropane, glycerol, penterythritol, sorbitol, sucrose and the like. Additional examples of polyethers include the generally known poly(oxytetramethylene) glycols prepared by the polymerization of tetrahydrofuran in the presence of Lewis acid catalysts such as boron trifluoride, tin (IV) chloride, antimony pentachloride, antimony trichloride, phosphorous pentafluoride, and sulfonyl chloride. Other examples of polyethers include the generally known reaction products of 1,2-epoxide-containing compounds with polyols such as simple diols, triols and higher hydric alcohols known in the art such as those described previously herein as useful in the preparation of isocyanate-terminated prepolymers.
Epoxy resins, often referred to simply as "epoxies", are generally known and refer to compounds or mixtures of compounds containing more than one 1,2-epoxy group of the formula ##STR12## i.e., polyepoxides. The polyepoxides may be saturated or unsaturated, aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic. Examples of suitable polyepoxides include the generally known polyglycidyl ethers of polyphenols and/or polyepoxides which are acrylic resins containing pendant and/or terminal 1,2-epoxy groups. Polyglycidyl ethers of polyphenols may be prepared, for example, by etherification of a polyphenol with epichlorohydrin or dichlorohydrin in the presence of an alkali. Examples of suitable polyphenols include: 1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane; 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane; 1,1-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)isobutane; 2,2-bis(4-hydroxytertiarybutylphenyl)propane; bis(2-hydroxynaphthyl)methane; 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene; 1,1-bis(4-hydroxy-3-allylphenyl)ethane; and the hydrogenated derivatives thereof. The polyglycidyl ethers of polyphenols of various molecular weights may be produced, for examples, by varying the mole ratio of epichlorohydrin to polyphenol in known manner.
Epoxy resins also include the polyglycidyl ethers of mononuclear polyhydric phenols such as the polyglycidyl ethers of resorcinol, pyrogallol, hydroquinone, and pyrocatechol.
Epoxy resins also include the polyglycidyl ethers of polyhydric alcohols such as the reaction products of epichlorohydrin or dichlorohydrin with aliphatic and cycloaliphatic compounds containing from two to four hydroxyl groups including, for example, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, propane diols, butane diols, pentane diols, glycerol, 1,2,6-hexanetriol, pentaerythritol, and 2,2-bis(4-hydroxycyclohexyl)propane.
Epoxy resins additionally include polyglycidyl esters of polycarboxylic acids such as the generally known polyglycidyl esters of adipic acid, phthalic acid, and the like.
Addition polymerized resins containing epoxy groups may also be employed. These polyepoxides may be produced by the addition polymerization of epoxy functional monomers such as glycidyl acrylate, glycidyl methacrylate and allyl glycidyl ether optionally in combination with ethylenically unsaturated monomers such as styrene, alpha-methyl styrene, alpha-ethyl styrene, vinyl toluene, t-butyl styrene, acrylamide, methacrylamide, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, ethacrylonitrile, ethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, isopropyl methacrylate, isobutyl methacrylate, and isobornyl methacrylate.
Many additional examples of epoxy resins are described in the Handbook of Epoxy Resins, Henry Lee and Kris Neville, 1967, McGraw Hill Book Company.
The resins of the invention can also be combined with various polyols to form compositions of the invention. Examples of polyols which may be utilized in compositions of the invention include the polyols in the broad classes previously described with respect to polyols suitable for preparation of the isocyanate-terminated prepolymers, namely: simple diols, triols, and higher hydric alcohols; polyester polyols optionally modified with a fatty acid; polyether polyols; amide-containing polyols; and polyurethane polyols.
In addition to the foregoing components, the compositions of this invention may contain optional ingredients, including various pigments of the type ordinarily utilized in coatings of this general class. In addition, various fillers; plasticizers, antioxidants; mildewcides and fungicides; surfactants; various flow control agents including, for example, thixotropes and additives for sag resistance and/or pigment orientation based on polymer microparticles (sometimes referred to as microgels) described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,025,474; 4,055,607; 4,075,141, 4,115,472; 4,147,688; 4,180,489; 4,242,384; 4,268,547; 4,220,679; and 4,290,932 the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference; and other such formulating additives may be employed in some instances.
The compositions herein can be applied by any conventional method, including brushing, dipping, flow coating, roll coating, etc., but they are most often applied by spraying. The compositions may be applied over a wide variety of substrates such as wood, metals, glass, cloth, plastics, foams and the like, as well as over primers.
Pigments suitable for a composition of the invention include a wide variety of pigments generally known for use in coating compositions. Suitable pigments include both metallic-flake pigments and various white and colored pigments.
Examples of metallic-flake pigments include the conventional metallic flakes such as aluminum flakes, nickel flakes, tin flakes, silver flakes, chromium flakes, stainless steel flakes, gold flakes, copper flakes and combinations thereof. Of the metallic-flake pigments, nonleafing aluminum flakes are preferred.
Examples of white and colored pigments include generally known pigments based on metal oxides; metal hydroxides; metal sulfides; metal sulfates; metal carbonates; carbon black; china clay; phthalo blues and greens, organo reds, and other organic dyes.
Coating compositions of the invention based on the resins of the invention can provide cured films having an excellent combination of properties such as the hardness required for automotive coatings both for original equipment automotive applications and automotive refinishing applications, good solvent and water resistance, high initial gloss, good impact resistance and excellent long term durability when exposed to weathering conditions as exist, for example, in Florida, United States of America.
Typically, a composition of the invention comprises a resin of the invention, a cure-promoting catalyst, and when desired, a solvent.
Examples of cure-promoting catalysts which may be employed in a composition of the invention include: acids and acid salts such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, butylstannoic acid, n-butylphosphoric acid, triflic acid (i.e., trifluoromethane sulfonic acid), diethylammonium triflate, tin naphthenate, tin benzoate, tin octoate, tin butyrate, dibutyltin dilaurate, dibutyltin diacetate, iron stearate, and lead octoate; titanates such as tetraisopropyl titanate and tetrabutyl titanate; oxides such as dibutyltin oxide; and bases such as isophorone diamine, methylene dianiline, imidazole, aminopropyltriethoxysilane, aminoalcohols and others basic nitrogen-containing compounds. The preferred cure-promoting catalyst is diethylammonium triflate. A patent application Ser. No. 683,737 filed Dec. 19, 1984 titled CATALYSTS FOR CURABLE COATING VEHICLE BASED UPON AMINOALKYLOXY SILANES AND ORGANIC ISOCYANATES in the name of P. Prucnal is directed to compositions described herein containing a catalyst selected from triflic acid (i.e., trifluoromethane sulfonic acid), a neutralization product of triflic acid with ammonia, a neutralization product of triflic acid with an amine, a tetraalkyl ammonium salt of triflic acid, and mixtures thereof.
The specific amounts of cure-promoting catalyst which can be included in the compositions of the invention may vary considerably depending upon factors such as curing temperature, rate of cure desired, optional film-forming resins in the compositions in addition to a resin of the invention, the amount of moisture present in the ambient atmosphere, and the like. However, in general, a coating composition of the invention may contain from about 0.1 parts to about 5 parts or more by weight of cure-promoting catalyst based on 100 parts by weight of resin solids in the composition.
Although it is preferred to minimize the content of organic solvent in compositions of the invention, where desired, generally known organic solvents may be included since the resins of the invention generally are compatible with organic solvents. Examples of suitable solvents include: alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol and the like; the mono- and dialkyl ethers of ethylene and propylene glycol such as ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, ethylene glycol dibutyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, ethylene glycol monohexyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monoethyl ether and propylene glycol dibutyl ether; the mono- and dialkyl ethers of diethylene glycol such as diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, diethylene glycol dibutyl ether, diethylene glycol diethyl ether and diethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate; ketones such as methylethyl ketone; esters such as butyl-acetate; hydrocarbons such as xylene and toluene; N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone; dimethyl formamide; and mixtures thereof.
Coating compositions of the invention comprising a resin of the invention typically can be cured by heating in the presence of atmospheric moisture; although, where curing time is not an important consideration, they may be cured at ambient temperature. Thus, once a resin of the invention and cure-promoting catalyst are brought in contact with each other, as by admixing, and exposed to the ambient atmosphere, the composition will begin to cure. Accordingly, it is desirable in some instances to prepare a composition of the invention in the form of a two-package system, i.e., one package containing a resin of the invention along with desired optional ingredients and a second package containing the cure-promoting catalyst. When it is desired to coat a substrate with the composition, the components of the two packages are merely mixed together just prior to application and the resulting composition applied to the substrate by any of the methods described above.
As indicated previously, a coating composition of the invention can comprise a resin of the invention as the sole film-forming resin in the composition. In coating compositions of the invention containing a resin of the invention, a cure-promoting catalyst, and various optional ingredients including, for example, those ingredients described previously such as other film-forming resins and polyols, the amounts of the individual components may vary widely depending on the intended use of the composition. However, generally coating compositions of the invention comprise from about 100 to about 10 percent by weight of resin of the invention, and from about 0 to about 90 percent by weight of optional other film-forming resin and/or polyol, based on the total weight of the composition. Preferred coating compositions of the invention comprise from about 30 to 100 percent by weight of resin of the invention and 70 to 0 percent by weight of optional other film-formin resin and/or polyol, based on the total weight of the composition. In the compositions of the invention where the percent by weight of resin of the invention, optional other resins as described previously, optional polyol, and cure-promoting catalyst based on the total weight of the composition do not add up to 100 percent by weight, the balance is comprised of other optional ingredients of the types described previously.
The following examples illustrate the invention. Amounts and percentages are by weight unless specified otherwise. When used herein "pbw" means "parts by weight." Tests referred to in the following examples are conducted as follows.
TESTS
(1) Gloss 60.degree.--The value for gloss 60.degree. represents the percent specular reflectance of light from the surface of the coating at an angle of 60 degrees from the direction normal to the surface of the coating.
(2) Hardness--An EAGLE Turquoise Drawing Pencil (from BEROL Corporation) is sharpened and the point is sanded to provide a flattened surface. The flattened tip is scraped at about a 45.degree. angle to the coating while strong downward pressure is applied to the pencil. The value for hardness represents the designation of the "lead" in the hardest EAGLE Turquoise Drawing Pencil which does not scratch the coating in this test.
(3) Solvent Rubs--The number of double rubs is understood to mean the number of back and forth finger rubs across the coating with a cloth dipped in the indicated solvent. The number of double rubs indicated is the number that the cured coating can withstand before the substrate becomes visible through the coating. However, when the term "passed" is used to describe the results of this test, it means that the coating withstands at least 50 solvent rubs with the indicated solvent.
(4) Acid Resistance--To a coated substrate is applied a spot formed from 10 drops of 10 percent by volume muriatic acid (37 percent commercial grade hydrochloric acid) in tap water. The spot is covered with a watch glass and allowed to remain on the coating for 15 minutes at room temperature. Thereafter the spot of acid is washed off under running tap water. The term "passed" means that the coating shows no visible evidence of deterioration when subjected to this test.
(5) Watersoak--The coating on a substrate is scored down to the substrate in a crosshatched pattern of 1/16.times.1/16 inch squares. Thereafter, the substrate is immersed in deionized water at 100.degree. F. (37.8.degree. C.) for 24 hours, removed, and wiped dry. Next, tape (3M Transparent No. 710, 3/4 inch wide) is firmly applied to the crosshatched area so as to eliminate voids and air pockets and thereafter sharply ripped from the coating. The term "passed" means that the crosshatched area is not removed from the substrate.
(6) Detergent Resistance--A coated substrate is soaked for 72 hours at 100.degree. F. (37.8.degree. C.) in a 15 gallon (56.8 liter) tank containing 505 grams (g) of sodium tetrapyrophosphate decahydrate, 107.7 g of anhydrous sodium sulfate, 39.7 g of sodium metasilicate, 5.7 g of anhydrous sodium carbonate, and 113.4 g of a sodium alkylarylsulfonate available as Fisher S-198 from Fisher Scientific Co. The term "passed" means that the coating shows no visible evidence of deterioration when subjected to this test.
(7) Impact--A coating on a substrate is subjected to a falling weight impact substantially according to test ASTM D 2794-69 (1974). Results are reported in the form "x/y" wherein x represents inch-pounds impacted on the coated side of the panel and y represents inch-pounds impacted on the reverse side.
(8) Stripper Resistance--A phenolic based paint stripper (EPCO 803 from Ensign Products Company) is applied directly to the coating, allowed to remain on the coating for 4 minutes, and thereafter removed by means of running water. The term "passed" means that the coating shows no visible evidence of deterioration and the coating remains adhered to the substrate.
(9) Mortar Resistance--Mortar in the form of a soft paste prepared by mixing 75 g of building lime (ASTM C 207-74) and 225 g of dry sand, both passing 10-mesh wire screen with about 100 g water, is applied at a thickness of about 1/4 inch to the coating on a substrate. Thereafter the coated substrate is exposed for 24 hours to 100 percent relative humidity at 100.degree. F. (37.8.degree. C.). The term "passed" means that after the 24 hour period the mortar dislodges easily from the coating without loss of coating adhesion and without visible evidence of deterioration of the coating.
(10) Solids Content--The solids contents of compositions herein are determined by generally known procedures either at 105.degree. C. for 2 hours or 150.degree. C. for 2 hours.
