Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a stain-proofing agent for preventing adherence of stains and a non-aqueous composition for paints containing the stain-proofing agent, and particularly relates to the non-aqueous composition suitable for paints for building materials, civil engineering, heavy duty coating, automobiles, etc.

BACKGROUND ART

In recent years, a solvent-soluble fluoroolefin copolymer containing hydroxyl group or carboxyl group has been used as an ultra-high weather resistive coating resin, and the use thereof has been increasing. It is known that copolymers of fluoroolefin with vinyl ether, vinyl ester or the like, which is proposed in, for example, JP-B-60-21686, JP-A-3-121107, JP-A-4-279612 and JP-A-4-28707, are soluble in usual solvent for paints, and in combination use with a curing agent such as isocyanate or melamine, can be baked or cured at normal temperature to form coating films excellent in weather resistance.

However, those coating films have a problem that, when the films are exposed outdoors, staining substances contained in air and in rain water are easily deposited on and adhere easily to a surface of the coating film (problem in stain-proofing property for preventing adherence of stains). In order to improve wipe-off property of carbon stains and marking ink (stain removal property), reaction products of fluoroolefin copolymer and silane compound were investigated in, for example, JP-A-4-173881. Also in U.S. Pat. No. 3,429,845 and JP-A-4-275379, there are proposed compositions of hydroxyl group-containing fluoroolefin copolymers and compounds (hydrolysis product) prepared by adding water and a catalyst (hydrochloric acid, etc.) to a silicate (monomer) or a silicate condensate (oligomer) and then hydrolyzing the mixture in alcohol. However, those compositions cannot offer the effect of improving the above-mentioned stain-proofing property.

Examples of employing a silane compound as a curing moiety as mentioned above are also proposed in JP-B-45-11309, JP-A-5-78612, JP-A-61-258852, JP-A-62-116673, JP-A-64-75575, JP-A-2-232221, JP-A-2-240153, JP-A-4-211482, JP-A-4-65476 and JP-A-4-292677. However, curing is insufficient due to large contents of alcohol and water. On the other hand, since a silicate originally has hydroxyl group or requires high temperature baking, migration of the silicate to the surface of coating film is inhibited. Also there is a problem that since the silane compound has a non-hydrolyzable group, hydrophilic property is insufficient. Due to the mentioned reasons, the stain-proofing property is not improved like the above-mentioned other proposals.

The situation is the same with respect to other paints of acryl, acrylic silicon, inorganic materials or the like, and a coating film having remarkably improved stain-proofing property is scarcely known.

Further as disclosed in WO94/06870, WO95/02645, JP-A-7-109435, JP-A-7-82520, JP-A-7-136583 and JP-A-7-136584, very recently techniques for improving stain-proofing property by adding an alkyl silicate to paints have come to be known, but the resulting coating films have disadvantages that hydrophilization of the coating film surface (stain-proofing property) cannot be repeatedly obtained, and that appearance and alkali resistance of the coating film are poor.

The present situation is such that though silane compounds are used as a dehydrating agent at the time of polymerizing or dispersing pigments, almost the whole amount of the silane compound reacts with water during the production process and thus, the effect of improving the stain-proofing property of the resulting coating film is scarcely obtained.

An object of the present invention is to provide a non-aqueous composition for paints being capable of forming a coating film which is remarkably excellent in stain-proofing property whereby neither staining substances contained in air nor stains due to rain water adhere to or are deposited on the coating film surface, and to provide a stain-proofing agent for adding to the composition.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a stain-proofing agent comprising a compound represented by the formula (1): ##STR2## wherein n is an integer of 1 to 20, all of R.sup.1 are different or at least two of R.sup.1 are the same, each is a monovalent organic group having 1 to 1,000 carbon atoms and may contain oxygen atom, nitrogen atom and/or silicon atom, a part or the whole of hydrogen atoms of said organic group may be substituted by fluorine atom or fluorine atom and chlorine atom.

Further the present invention relates to a non-aqueous composition for paints comprising a stain-proofing agent comprising a compound represented by the formula (1): ##STR3## wherein n is an integer of 1 to 20, all of R.sup.1 are different or at least two of R.sup.1 are the same, each is a monovalent organic group having 1 to 1,000 carbon atoms and may contain oxygen atom, nitrogen atom and/or silicon atom, a part or the whole of hydrogen atoms of said organic group may be substituted by fluorine atom or fluorine atom and chlorine atom; a resin; and a curing agent and/or a curing catalyst.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

The stain-proofing agent of the present invention is added to paints for preventing staining substances contained in air and stains due to rain water, so-called rain-marking stains, from adhering to a coating film exposed outdoors (for example, coating films on cars, buildings, etc.). In addition thereto, the stain-proofing agent can be used for a resin surface modifier, antistatic agent, water absorption preventing agent or the like.

Though it is not clear why the above-mentioned effect can be obtained with the stain-proofing agent, it is presumed that, for example, the stain-proofing agent exists on the surface of a substrate or a product and is hydrolyzed by water in the air, thereby hydrophilizing the surface of the substrate or the product. In that state, even if staining substances together with rain water approach the surface, the rain water is attached to the surface more easily than the staining substances and the staining substances are scattered with the rain water, thus causing neither adherence nor deposition of the staining substances on the surface. As the stain-proofing agent has a surface-concentrating property, an efficient effect can be expected. It appears that such a function improves the mentioned effect, i.e., the stain-proofing effect, and even if contamination arises, stains are removed easily, i.e., the stain removal effect is improved.

The stain-proofing agent of the present invention may be a compound represented by the formula (1): ##STR4## (hereinafter referred to as "compound I").

The industrially available compound I is actually a mixture of compounds having a certain range of n, and thus n is represented as an average value.

Also the compound I contains a condensate (oligomer) having a branched structure or cyclic structure in addition to a linear chain structure.

In the formula (1), n is an integer of 1 to 20, preferably 2 to 15, more preferably 4 to 10. When n decreases, a boiling point of the compound is lowered. Therefore, there is a tendency that when the compound is used for preparing a paint and the paint is applied by spray-coating, the compound is easy to vaporize and difficult to remain in a coating film. On the other hand, if n exceeds 20, when the compound is used for paints, there are defects that compatibility with, for example, a resin and curing agent is poor to lower storage stability, that appearance of a coating film is apt to be poor, that viscosity of the paint becomes high, and further that such a compound is difficult to obtain industrially.

It is preferable that the above-mentioned organic group has hydrolyzability and that after the hydrolysis, the organic group preferably has removable properties such as volatility, water solubility and thermal decomposition property.

All of R.sup.1 are different or at least two of R.sup.1 are the same, each is a monovalent organic group having 1 to 1,000 carbon atoms and may contain oxygen atom, nitrogen atom and/or silicon atom, a part or the whole of hydrogen atoms of said organic group may be substituted by fluorine atom or fluorine atom and chlorine atom.

It is preferable that the number of carbon atoms is from 1 to 100, more preferably from 1 to 16. When the number of carbon atoms decreases, there is a tendency that, for example, when the compound is used for preparing a paint and the paint is stored, storage stability is lowered. When the number of carbon atoms exceeds 1,000, there is a tendency that compatibility with a resin and hydrolyzability are lowered.

Any of the organic groups may be a substituent having a linear chain or a branched chain. When the substituent has fluorine atom, the branched substituent may be preferred from solubility point of view.

The organic group may contain oxygen atom, nitrogen atom and/or silicon atom. From the viewpoint of surface concentrating property, a group containing fluorine atom or a group containing silicon atom which has non-hydrolyzable group is preferred. A trifluoromethyl group-containing group and dimethylsiloxane chain-containing group are further preferred.

A part of hydrogen atoms of the organic group may be substituted by fluorine atom, which leads to a tendency of giving high surface concentrating property.

Also a part of hydrogen atoms of the organic group may be substituted by fluorine atom and chlorine atom, which leads to a tendency of giving high solubility.

As the organic group containing no fluorine atom of R.sup.1, preferable is a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, etc. Examples are, for instance, CH.sub.3, C.sub.2 H.sub.5, CH.sub.3 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2, (CH.sub.3).sub.2 CH, CH.sub.3 (CH.sub.2).sub.2 CH.sub.2, CH.sub.3 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH(C.sub.2 H.sub.5)CH.sub.2, a dimethylsiloxane chain-containing group and the like. From the viewpoints of hydrolyzability, removable property, availability and workability, CH.sub.3 and C.sub.2 H.sub.5 are preferred and CH.sub.3 is further preferred.

From the viewpoints of surface concentrating property, hydrolyzability and removable property, CF.sub.3 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.2 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.3 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 C.dbd.O and CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 C.dbd.O are preferred, and CF.sub.3 CH.sub.2 and CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 CH.sub.2 are further preferred.

Examples of the compound I are, for instance, ##STR5## wherein m and n are the same as above. From the viewpoints of surface concentrating property, hydrolyzability, removable property and availability, preferable are: ##STR6##

As a process for synthesizing such a fluorine-containing silicate or its oligomer as the compound I here is disclosed a process in which metallic sodium is used in, for example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,491,134, but there is difficulty in reaction procedures. Also a process disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 2,777,870 has a problem that it is difficult to obtain starting materials.

In the present invention, there was found a process for synthesizing such a fluorine-containing silicate or its oligomer as the compound I without the problems as mentioned above, and thus the present invention has been completed.

The fluorine-containing silicate can be synthesized by allowing an alkyl silicate such as tetrachlorosilane, tetramethoxysilane or tetraethoxysilane to react with a fluorine-containing organic compound such as a fluorine-containing alcohol, a fluorine-containing carboxylic acid or a metal salt of fluorine-containing carboxylic acid.

The oligomer of the fluorine-containing silicate can be synthesized by allowing a chlorosiloxane compound such as hexachlorodisiloxane, octachlorotrisiloxane or decachlorotetrasiloxane, or an alkoxysiloxane compound such as an oligomer of tetramethoxysilane (for instance, Methyl Silicate 51 available from Colcoat Co., Ltd.) or an oligomer of tetraethoxysilane (for instance, Ethyl Silicate 40 available from Colcoat Co., Ltd.) to react with the above-mentioned fluorine-containing organic compound.

The oligomer of the fluorine-containing silicate can also be synthesized by further condensating, for example, a previously synthesized fluorine-containing silicate (monomer).

As a synthesis of an alkyl silicate containing no fluorine atom, there may be employed, for example, a process disclosed in JP-B-62-918. The process can also be applied to a synthesis of the fluorine-containing silicate.

The synthesis of the fluorine-containing silicate or its oligomer which is used in the present invention is then explained hereinbelow in detail.

As the first synthesis of the fluorine-containing silicate or its oligomer, there is, for example, a process in which a compound represented by the formula (9):

R.sub.f OH (9) wherein R.sub.f is a monovalent organic group having 1 to 1,000 carbon atoms and may contain oxygen atom, nitrogen atom and/or silicon atom, a part or the whole of hydrogen atoms of the organic group is substituted by fluorine atom or fluorine atom and chlorine atom, is allowed to react in the presence or absence of a catalyst, with a compound represented by the formula (10): ##STR7## wherein n is an integer of 1 to 20, all of R.sup.3 are different or at least two of R.sup.3 are the same, each is a monovalent organic group having 1 to 1,000 carbon atoms, to prepare a fluorine-containing silicate or its oligomer represented by the formula (11): ##STR8## wherein n, R.sup.3 and R.sub.f are the same as above, or represented by the formula (12): ##STR9## wherein n and R.sub.f are the same as above.

As the catalyst, it is preferable to use an acid, alkali, organometal compound or metal salt.

In the formula (9), the number of carbon atoms of R.sub.f is preferably from 1 to 100, more preferably from 1 to 16. When the number of carbon atoms decreases, since a difference in boiling point from R.sup.3 OH which is substituted at the time of synthesis is small, there is a tendency that a substitution ratio is decreased to lower storage stability of the resulting paint. When the number of carbon atoms exceeds 1,000, there is a tendency that solubility of R.sub.f OH at the time of synthesis is lowered, and compatibility with a resin and hydrolyzability in the coating film are lowered.

Any of R.sub.f may be a linear or branched substituent. From the viewpoints of solubility at the time of synthesis and solubility at the time of preparing a paint, a branched substituent is preferable.

The R.sub.f may contain oxygen atom, nitrogen atom and/or silicon atom. When R.sub.f contains a silicon atom having non-hydrolyzable group, a dimethylsiloxane chain-containing group is preferred from the viewpoints of easiness of substitution with alcohol and surface concentrating property in application of paints.

When a part of hydrogen atoms of R.sub.f is substituted by fluorine atom, there is a tendency that viscosity of the paint becomes low and that the resulting paint is endowed with high surface concentrating property.

When a part of hydrogen atoms of R.sub.f is substituted by fluorine atom and chlorine atom, there is a tendency that R.sub.f OH has a high boiling point and the resulting paint is highly soluble.

The R.sub.f may be a group having the surface concentrating property. Examples are those represented by, for instance, F(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m, (CF.sub.3).sub.2 CH, H(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m, F(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m C.dbd.O, H(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m C.dbd.O, (F(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m).sub.2 N, ((CF.sub.3).sub.2 CH).sub.2 N, (H(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m).sub.2 N, F(CF.sub.2).sub.n O(CF(CF.sub.3)CF.sub.2 O).sub.m CF(CF.sub.3)C.dbd.O, (F(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m).sub.2 C.dbd.N, ((CF.sub.3).sub.2 CH).sub.2 C.dbd.N, (H(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m).sub.2 C.dbd.N, F(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m C.dbd.ONR.sub.3, H(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m C.dbd.ONR.sub.3, F(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m C.dbd.CH.sub.2, H(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m C.dbd.CH.sub.2, F(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m C.dbd.CF.sub.2 and H(CF.sub.2).sub.n (CH.sub.2).sub.m C.dbd.CF.sub.2, wherein m is 0 or an integer of 1 to 6, n is an integer of 1 to 10, R.sup.3 represents an alkyl having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and may be branched.

Examples of those R.sub.f are, for instance, CF.sub.3 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.2 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.3 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2, (CF.sub.3).sub.2 CH, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.7 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2, H(CF.sub.2).sub.2 CH.sub.2, H(CF.sub.2).sub.3 CH.sub.2, H(CF.sub.2).sub.4 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 C.dbd.O, CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 C.dbd.O, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.6 C.dbd.O, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.7 C.dbd.O, and the like. From the viewpoints of availability, handling property, surface concentrating property in the resulting paint, hydrolyzability and removable property, CF.sub.3 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.2 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 (CF.sub.2).sub.3 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2, CF.sub.3 C.dbd.O and CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 C.dbd.O are preferred, and CH.sub.3 CH.sub.2 and CF.sub.3 CF.sub.2 CH.sub.2 are further preferred.

In the formula (10), n is an integer of 1 to 10, preferably 2 to 10, further preferably 4 to 6. When n decreases, a boiling point of a starting silane compound becomes low at the time of synthesis and thus the synthesis is difficult. Also since a boiling point of the synthesized compound becomes low, there is a tendency that, for example, when the paint is spray-coated, the compound in the paint is easy to be evaporated and difficult to remain in the coating film. On the other hand, when n exceeds 10, there is a problem with repeatability of a synthesis reaction. Also when preparing a paint, there is a tendency that compatibility with a resin and curing agent is poor to lower storage stability, that appearance of the coating film is apt to be poor, that viscosity becomes high, and further that such a compound is difficult to obtain industrially.

All of R.sup.3 are different or at least two of R.sup.3 are the same. Each is a monovalent organic group having 1 to 1,000 carbon atoms.

The number of carbon atoms of R.sup.3 is preferably from 1 to 100, more preferably from 1 to 16. When the number of carbon atoms decreases, there is a tendency that hydrolytic stability of starting material is poor and storage stability of the resulting paint is lowered. When the number of carbon atoms exceeds 1,000, there is a tendency that solubility of the starting material is lowered and that compatibility with a resin and hydrolyzability in the paint are lowered.

Any of R.sup.3 may be a linear or branched substituent. From the viewpoint of solubility at the time of preparing a paint, a branched substituent is preferred.

Examples of R.sup.3 are, for instance, CH.sub.3, C.sub.2 H.sub.5, CH.sub.3 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2, (CH.sub.3).sub.2 CH, CH.sub.3 (CH.sub.2).sub.2 CH.sub.2, CH.sub.3 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 CH(C.sub.2 H.sub.5)CH.sub.2, a dimethylsiloxane chain-containing group and the like. From the viewpoints of easiness of substitution with alcohol, removable property, availability and workability, CH.sub.3 and C.sub.2 H.sub.5 are preferred and CH.sub.3 is further preferred.

Examples of the compound represented by the formula (10) are, for instance, ##STR10## and the like. From the viewpoints of solubility, removable property and availability, preferable are ##STR11##

In the first synthesis, a catalyst may not be used. From a point of accelerating the reaction, however, he catalyst such as an acid, alkali, organometal compound or metal salt can be used.

Examples of the catalyst are, for instance, acids or alkalis such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, para-toluenesulfonic acid, ammonia, trimethylamine, triethylamine, tributylamine, 1,8-diazabicyclo(5.4.0)undecen-7 (DBU), (-)-sparteine, 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine, monoethanolamine, triethanolamine, N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydrogencarbonate, potassium t-butoxide, sodium ethoxide, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, tetramethylammonium hydrogensulfate, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide and tetrabutylammonium hydrogensulfate; organometal compounds or metal salts such as dibutyltindilaurate, dibutyltinacetate, dioctyltinmaleate, tetraisopropyltitanate and tetrabutyltitanate; and the like. From a point that a residual catalyst is easy to be removed from the reaction product, ammonia, trimethylamine and triethylamine are preferred.

An example of the first synthesis process may be carried out in that, first, a 500 ml reaction vessel equipped with a thermometer, reflux pipe and dropping funnel is charged with 0.1 mole of the compound represented by the formula (10).

Then the compound represented by the formula (9) is introduced into the reaction vessel in an amount of 0.01 to 0.4(n+1) mole, preferably 0.1(n+1) to 0.2(n+1) mole. In this case, n is the same as one shown in the formula (10). When the amount of the compound represented by the formula (9) decreases, there is a tendency of a substitution ratio becoming lower. When the amount increases, cost tends to become high.

When a catalyst is used, the catalyst may be added in an amount of 0.01 to 10% by mole, preferably 0.1 to 2% by mole on the basis of silicon atoms in the reaction mixture.

When the amount of the catalyst becomes smaller, there is a tendency of a substitution ratio becoming lower. When the amount becomes larger, there is a tendency that removal of the residual catalyst becomes inconvenient.

Then the inside temperature of the reaction vessel is maintained in the range of 0.degree. to 200.degree. C., preferably 50.degree. to 150.degree. C. for 1 to 24 hours, preferably 2 to 10 hours.

When the temperature is lower, there is a tendency of a substitution ratio being lower and when the temperature is higher, there is a tendency that side reaction is easy to occur. When the time is shorter, there is a tendency of a substitution ratio being lower and when the time is longer, there is a tendency that side reaction is easy to occur.

Afterwards, the alcohol and, as the case demands, unreacted starting materials are removed through distillation, then 0.01 to 0.2 mole of a compound represented by the formula (11) or (12) is obtained.

0.05 To 0.2 mole of the compound represented by the formula (11) can be obtained by using 0.2(n+1) to 0.3(n+1) mole of the compound of the formula (9) and 0.5 to 2% by mole of the catalyst under the conditions of a temperature of 50.degree. to 150.degree. C. and a reaction time of 2 to 6 hours.

5 0.01 To 0.15 mole of the compound represented by the formula (12) can be obtained by using 0.1(n+1) to 0.2(n+1) mole of the compound of the formula (9) and 0.5 to 2% by mole of the catalyst under the conditions of a temperature of 50.degree. to 150.degree. C. and a reaction time of 2 to 6 hours.

As the second process for synthesis of the oligomer of the fluorine-containing silicate, there is, for example, a process in which tetrachlorosilane is allowed to react with a compound represented by the formula (9):

R.sub.f OH (9) wherein R.sub.f is a monovalent organic group having 1 to 1,000 carbon atoms and may contain oxygen atom, nitrogen atom and/or silicon atom, a part or the whole of hydrogen atoms of said organic group is substituted by fluorine atom or fluorine atom and chlorine atom, and then the obtained compound represented by (R.sub.f O).sub.4 Si is subject to condensation in an organic solvent to give an oligomer of a fluorine-containing silicate represented by the formula (12): ##STR12## wherein n is an integer of 2 to 20, R.sub.f is the same as above.

It is preferable that the organic solvent is at least one selected from the group consisting of an alcohol solvent, ether solvent, ketone solvent, ester solvent, carboxylic acid solvent and fluorine-containing aromatic solvent.

In the above-mentioned second synthesis process, the number of carbon atoms of R.sub.f in the formula (9) is preferably from 1 to 100, more preferably from 1 to 16. When the number of carbon atoms decreases, there is a tendency that hydrolytic stability is decreased to lower storage stability of the resulting paints. When the number of carbon atoms exceeds 1,000, there is a tendency of solubility, compatibility with a resin and hydrolyzability being lowered.

Any of R.sub.f may be a linear or branched substituent. From the viewpoints of solubility at the time of synthesis and solubility at the time of preparing a paint, a branched substituent is preferred.

The R.sub.f may contain oxygen atom, nitrogen atom and/or silicon atom. From a point that side reaction is difficult to occur and from the viewpoint of surface concentrating property in application of the paint, a dimethylsiloxane chain-containing group is preferred when a silicon atom having non-hydrolyzable group is contained.

When a part of hydrogen atoms of R.sub.f is substituted by fluorine atom, there is a tendency that viscosity of the paint becomes lower and the paint is endowed with high surface concentrating property.

When a part of hydrogen atoms of R.sub.f is substituted by fluorine atom and chlorine atom, there is a tendency that solubility of starting materials becomes high and the resulting paint is highly soluble.

In the second synthesis, when the compound represented by the formula (12) is synthesized by subjecting the compound represented by (R.sub.f O).sub.4 Si to condensation through hydrolysis, since the compound of (R.sub.f O).sub.4 Si is difficult to be dissolved in water, an organic solvent is added to prevent gelling and to prevent non-uniform reaction.

Examples of the organic solvent are, for instance, alcohol solvents such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, t-butanol, octanol, 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol and 2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropanol; ether solvents such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane and tetrahydropyran; ketone solvents such as acetone; ester solvents such as 2-methoxyethyl acetate; carboxylic acid solvents such as acetic acid, trifluoroacetic acid and F(CF.sub.2).sub.8 COOH; fluorine-containing aromatic solvents such as trifluoromethylbenzene and m-bistrifluoromethylbenzene; and the like. From the viewpoint of high solubility, 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, 2,2,3,3,3-pentafluoropropanol, tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane and tetrahydropyran are preferred.

An example of the second synthesis may be carried out in that, first, a 1,000 ml reaction vessel equipped with a thermometer, stirrer, reflux pipe, cooling unit and dropping funnel is charged with 1.0 mole of tetrachlorosilane under nitrogen atmosphere, followed by cooling to not more than 10.degree. C.

Then the compound represented by the formula (9) is added dropwise in an amount of 3 to 5 moles, preferably 4 to 4.5 moles through the dropping funnel over 2 to 6 hours. When the amount of the compound of the formula (9) is smaller, there is a tendency that unreacted tetrachlorosilane is easy to remain, and when the amount is larger, cost tends to become higher.

Hydrogen chloride generated by the addition of the compound of the formula (9) is removed from the system through a polyvinyl chloride pipe and then trapped.

The temperature of the reaction mixture rises up to about 10.degree. C. to about 15.degree. C. Therefore, to complete the reaction, after the above-mentioned addition, the reaction mixture is cooled to about 5.degree. C. to about 10.degree. C. over 1 to 5 hours and then stirred until the generation of the hydrogen chloride stops.

Then the unreacted compound of the formula (9) is removed through distillation with heating. Through further distillation under reduced pressure, 0.5 to 1.0 mole of the compound represented by (R.sub.f O)4Si is obtained.

A 300 ml reaction vessel is charged with 0.15 mole of the obtained compound under nitrogen atmosphere, and a mixed solution comprising 1 to 100 ml, preferably 10 to 80 ml of the above-mentioned organic solvent, 0.01 to 5% by mole of a catalyst on the basis of silicon atom and 0.075 to 0.15 mole of water is added slowly with stirring.

When the amount of the organic solvent is smaller, the reaction tends to be not uniform, and when the amount is larger, reactivity tends to be lower. When the amount of the catalyst is smaller, reactivity tends to be lower, and when the amount is larger, removal of the residual catalyst tends to be difficult. When the amount of water is smaller, the degree of condensation tends to be lower, and when the amount is larger, the degree of condensation tends to be high.

At that time there is a case where white turbidity occurs in the system. Even in such a state, to complete the reaction, the mixture is stirred at 20.degree. to 100.degree. C. for 1 to 5 hours.

Then the mixture is heated to 50.degree. to 150.degree. C. to distill off the volatile components to obtain a product comprising 0.015 to 0.15 mole of the compound of the formula (12) as a main component in the reaction vessel.

A number average molecular weight of the copolymer (measured by GPC) is from 1,000 to 100,000, preferably 1,500 to 30,000.

PURIFICATION EXAMPLE 1

A column (diameter: 3 cm, length: 30 cm) was filled with Kyowaad 715 (Al.sub.2 O.sub.3.9SiO.sub.2.XH.sub.2 O available from Kyowa Kagaku Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha, Particle size: 1.5 mm), and rinsed with ethyl acetate. Then through the column was fed 500 g of the oligomer of fluorine-containing silicate obtained in Preparation Example 3, and thus the oligomer was purified. The obtained oligomer was allowed to stand at room temperature for three months, but there was no change in appearance of the oligomer. On the other hand, an oligomer which was not purified turned brown when allowed to stand at room temperature for three months.

PURIFICATION EXAMPLE 2

A column (diameter: 3 cm, length: 30 cm) was filled with Diaion SK1B (2A301)(polystyrene type cation exchange resin), treated with 2N hydrochloric acid, further rinsed with pure water and then dried. Then through the column was fed 500 g of the oligomer of fluorine-containing silicate obtained in Preparation Example 3, and thus the oligomer was purified. The obtained oligomer was allowed to stand at room temperature for three months, and there was no change in appearance of the oligomer.

EXAMPLE 1

To 208 g of Zeffle GK-500 (solid content: 60% by weight) were added 250 g of CR-95 (titanium oxide available from Ishihara Sangyo Kabushiki Kaisha), 100 g of butyl acetate and 800 g of glass beads, followed by stirring to disperse at 1,500 rpm with a portable grind mill (three blade type) for one hour. The glass beads were removed by filtration to give 429.4 g of a dispersion.

To the obtained dispersion were added 224.7 g of GK-500 and 115.4 g of butyl acetate, followed by mixing sufficiently to give a GK-500-based white paint (pigment/resin weight ratio=0.833). To 100 g of the white paint were added 30.0 g of Methyl Silicate 51 (100 parts by weight on the basis of 100 parts by weight of a fluorine-containing resin), 12.7 g of Takenate D-140N (NCO/OH=1) and 80 g of butyl acetate, followed by mixing sufficiently. The obtained paint composition was applied to a dull-finished steel plate (0.5 mm thick) by spray coating, dried and cured at room temperature for one week to give a coated plate having a coating thickness of about 40 .mu.m. Then the following tests were carried out.

The mixing components and amounts, etc. are shown in Table 1.

The tests were conducted in the manners as mentioned below.

Curability: The coating film was rubbed with butyl acetate, and evaluation was made with naked eyes in the following criteria. Curability was evaluated as "A" when there was no abnormalities, evaluated as "B" when gloss is somewhat faded and evaluated as "C" when the coating film is melted or swelled and gloss is faded. Gloss: Specular gloss at 60.degree. was measured according to JIS K-5400. Pencil hardness: Measured according to JIS K-5400. Flexibility: Measured according to JIS K-5400. Impact strength: Du Pont's impact strength test was made according to JIS K-5400. Stain-proofing property: Each coated plate was set on an exposure rack placed at an angle of 30.degree. being faced toward southern direction on a roof of 4-storied building in Osaka Prefecture. Lightness (L* value) was measured after the 6-month exposure and a difference (-.DELTA.L*) between the measured lightness and the initial lightness was assumed to be an index of the stain-proofing property. The evaluation was made by the following criteria. "A": when -.DELTA.L* is from 0 to 3, "B": when -.DELTA.L* is from 3 to 5, "C": when -.DELTA.L* is from 5 to 8, "D": when -.DELTA.L* is from 8 to 10, and "E": when -.DELTA.L* exceeds 10. Stain removable property: The surface of the coated plate used for the evaluation of the stain-proofing property was washed with water by a brush to eliminate stains attached thereto. The difference (-.DELTA.L*) between the lightness (L* value) after the elimination of stains and the initial lightness was assumed to be an index of the stain removable property (Meanings of the symbols "A" to "E" are the same as above). Pot life: The paint composition was applied after allowed to stand for a certain period of time, and a state of the applied paint and appearance of a coating film were evaluated as follows. If there occurred remarkable thickening, gellation, appearance of nibs, fading of gloss, poor sharpness of image, etc. after a lapse of time exceeding 12 hours, it was evaluated as "A". If there occurred remarkable thickening, gellation, appearance of nibs, fading of gloss, poor sharpness of image, etc. by a lapse of time of 12 hours, it was evaluated as "B". If there occurred remarkable thickening, gellation, appearance of nibs, fading of gloss, poor sharpness of image, etc. by a lapse of time of 6 hours, it was evaluated as "C". If there occurred remarkable thickening, gellation, appearance of nibs, fading of gloss, poor sharpness of image, etc. within 3 hours, it was evaluated as "D". Compatibility: Clear coating film (conditions were the same as in Table 1 except that a pigment was not used) was evaluated with naked eyes in the manner as mentioned below. Compatibility was evaluated as "A" when the coating film was clear and free of nibs; as "B" when there was slight white turbidity or there were nibs; as "C" when there was white turbidity; and as "D" when the coating film was opaque (being turbid in white all over a surface of the film). Accelerated weather resistance: I-Super UV tester (weather resistance tester available from Iwasaki Denki Kabushiki Kaisha) was used, and the weather resistance was evaluated by a specular gloss retention ratio (%) at 60.degree. after a lapse of about 1,000 hours.

For the weather resistance test, the following conditions were used.

(1) Cycle LIGHT: Black panel temperature: 63.degree. C., relative humidity: 70%, time: 11 hours, shower: 10 seconds/hour (2) Cycle DEW: Black panel temperature: 30.degree. C., relative humidity: 100%, time: 11 hours (3) Cycle REST: Black panel temperature: 63.degree. C., relative humidity: 85%, time: 1 hour

The results are shown in Table 2.

Thereon was roll-coated a plastisol of a poly(vinyl chloride) resin paint comprising 100 parts of Zeon 121 (vinyl chloride resin available from Nippon Zeon Kabushiki Kaisha), 20 parts of a trimellitic acid ester plasticizer (available from Kurogane Kasei Kabushiki Kaisha), 10 parts of Polycizer 202 (polyester plasticizer available from Dai Nippon Ink Kagaku Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha), 20 parts of dioctyl phthalate, 3 parts of Advastab T-17MJ (heat resistance and weather resistance stabilizer available from Katsuta Kako Kabushiki Kaisha) and 20 parts of Titan R-820 (titanium dioxide available from Ishihara Sangyo Kabushiki Kaisha), followed by baking at 200.degree. C. for 90 seconds to form a 100 .mu.m thick vinyl chloride resin layer.

Thereon was roll-coated a synthetic resin primer comprising 40 parts of Almatex L-1043 (thermoplastic acrylic resin available from Mitsui Toatsu Kabushiki Kaisha), 10 parts of BKS-2750 (epoxy-phenol resin available from Showa Union Gosei Kabushiki Kaisha), 10 parts of VAGH (vinyl acetate-vinyl chloride copolymer resin available from UCC) and 20 parts of Titan R-820 (titanium dioxide available from Ishihara Sangyo Kabushiki Kaisha), followed by baking at 200.degree.

C. for 90 seconds to form a 25 .mu.m thick fluorine-containing resin coating film. The paint was prepared by adding 5F-46 synthesized in the same manner as in Preparation Example 3, in an amount of 10 parts by weight on the basis of 100 parts by weight of a resin, to a white paint (organosol solution of isophorone) comprising a mixture resin of (1) VP-850 (vinylidene fluoride polymer available from Daikin Industries, Ltd., melting viscosity: 1.7 to 3.3 g/10 minutes, 280.degree. C., load: 10 kg) and (2) an acrylic silicon resin (number average molecular weight: 18,000, weight average molecular weight: 52,000) comprising 75% by mole of methyl methacrylate, 15% by mole of isobutyl methacrylate and 10% by mole of .gamma.-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (weight ratio: (1)/(2)=7/3).

The coated articles obtained in Application Examples 1 to 25 were exposed outdoor for six months. After the exposing, there was almost no stain adhesion thereto, and stain-proofing properties thereof were all evaluated as "A" or "B" according to the same evaluation method as in Example 1.

As a reference experiment, there was evaluated a role of the compound represented by the formula (1) as an additive.

In order to evaluate surface conditions of a coated plate having improved stain-proofing property, ESCA (XPS) measurement was carried out with a photoelectron spectrometer (ESCA-750 available from Shimadzu Corporation) with respect to the coated plates obtained in Examples 2 to 5. Integral intensities of F1s and Si2p were corrected with detected sensitiveness, and an atomic ratio of F/Si was calculated.

Excited X-ray: Mg, K.alpha. rays (1253, 6 ev) X-ray output: 8KV-50 mA Vacuum degree: 3.times.10.sup.-8 Torr The results are shown in Table 19. TABLE 19______________________________________Adding amount of Me51 Water contact (part by weight) angle (degree) F/Si______________________________________Ex. 5 20 85 4.6 Ex. 4 40 73 1.8 Ex. 3 60 46 0.13 Ex. 2 80 35 0.12______________________________________

As it is clear from Table 19, the F/Si ratio is lowered remarkably with increase of the adding amount of the above-mentioned compound. This means that around the surface of the coating film, there is a very small amount of fluorine-containing resin and on the contrary, an amount of Si is considerably large. Therefore, it can be concluded that there exists a large amount of the above-mentioned compound as an additive rather than as a curing agent for the fluorine-containing resin.

Also the contact angle of water (after a lapse of six months) is lowered extremely with increase of the adding amount of the compound. It is presumed that at least around the surface and further around the outermost surface, water in the air reacts with a SiOCH.sub.3 group to change it to a hydrophilic SiOH group and that a reaction with the fluorine-containing resin for curing does not arise.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY

As it is clear from the above-mentioned results, the non-aqueous composition for paints of the present invention can form a coating film being remarkably excellent in stain-proofing property, and the stain-proofing agent of the present invention can improve stain-proofing property of paints, etc. remarkably.
