Abstract
A hydrido-silicone is incompletely reacted with (preferably) a long chain olefin under hydrosilylation conditions to produce a partially substituted hydrido-silicone that is further reacted under hydrosilylation conditions with a vinyl containing MQ resin to partially consume the remaining hydride species which is then reacted under hydrosilylation conditions to consume the remaining hydride species with a long chain di- or multi-alkenyl silicone to produce a composition that is useful as an anti-mist agent in the coating of flexible supports.
Description
FIELD OF USE
[0001] The present invention relates to coating flexible materials or supports such as sheets of paper or other polymeric material, either woven or non-woven, with a silicone composition. The present invention also relates to the coating of flexible materials or supports with liquid compositions comprising one or more cross-linkable polyorganosiloxanes wherein such polyorganosiloxanes are cross-linkable by an addition reaction, a condensation reaction, a cationic reaction, or a free-radical reaction. The present invention also relates to star branched polyorganosiloxanes (silicone polymers) that reduce misting during the application of the silicone composition (polyorganosiloxane) to the flexible material or support. The flexible support may be paper, cardboard, plastic film, metal film and the like. Some exemplary applications are paper for foodstuffs, adhesive labels, adhesive tapes, seals and the like.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The coating of flexible supports with liquid silicones is typically carried out on coating devices that operate continuously at very high speed. These devices usually comprise coating heads composed of several rolls, including in particular a pressure roll and a coating roll that are continuously fed with a silicone composition that may or may not be cross-linkable, by means of a series of rolls that are placed next to one another. A strip of flexible support of the desired material to be coated is fed at high speed between the pressure roll and the coating roll to be coated on at least one of its surfaces. When it is intended to cross link the silicone coating, apparatus to implement a cross linking reaction are positioned downstream of the coating head. The apparatus that implements cross linking may be for example an oven or an emitter of radiation, e.g. ultraviolet (UV) radiation or an emitter of a beam of electrons (EB).
[0003] High speed coating of flexible supports with silicones has been associated with problems associated with the transfer of the silicone liquid (or fluid) from the coating roll to the flexible support, which moves forward through the coating apparatus. One of the particular problems associated with transfer of the silicone liquid from the coating roll to the flexible support is the appearance of a fog, mist or aerosol in the immediate vicinity of the coating head and particularly close to the points of contact between the coating roll and the flexible support being coated. Typically, the density of this fog, mist or aerosol increases with an increase in the forward speed of the flexible support being coated by the apparatus.
[0004] The first effect of this transfer problem is to reduce the amount of silicone liquid actually transferred to the flexible support. A second effect is for the droplets comprising the fog, mist or aerosol to condense onto the newly coated flexible support downstream of the coating rolls creating an orange peel effect. This orange peel effect, or coating non-uniformity, creates problems with coverage, the mechanical properties of the coating, e.g. ruboff, and adhesion resistance.
[0005] An additional problem caused by non-uniformity in the coating is related to industrial hygiene and the safety of people operating the coating equipment who are working in the vicinity of the coating equipment.

Methods for making MQ resins, such as ((MjMVikDlDVimTnTVio)pQ)q, are described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,817,729, U.S. Pat. No. 5,399,614 and U.S. Pat.

[0046] The star branched silicone compounds of the present invention are described as the reaction product of the following two compounds:
M′gMaMHb−gDcD′hDHd−hTeT′iTHf−i and ((MjMVikDlDVimTnTVio)pQ)q,
[0047] because of the multiplicity of hydrosilylation sites available for reaction on each of the component molecules being reacted and the difficulties of reducing such a stochastic chemical reaction to an analytic description.
[0048] The compositions of the present invention may be made by neat reactions or by reactions where the reactants are diluted by solvent. Because of the long chain nature of the substituents in these materials, neat reactions, i.e. reactions conducted in the absence of any non-participating solvent, will tend to produce products that conform to the molecular descriptions herein but possessing a more entangled macro-structure. If less entangled macro-structures of these compounds are desired, the preparative reactions should be conducted in suitable solvent media, e.g. cyclic siloxanes, inert hydrocarbon solvents and the like.
[0049] Many types of noble metal catalysts for this hydrosilylation reaction are known and such catalysts may be used for the reaction in the present instance. When optical clarity is required the preferred catalysts are catalysts that are soluble in the reaction mixture. By noble metal, Applicants define Ru, Rh, Pd, Os, Ir, and Pt as noble metals and also include Ni in the definition because of its known hydrogenation activity. Preferably the catalyst is a platinum compound and the platinum compound can be selected from those having the formula (PtCl2Olefin) and H(PtCl3Olefin) as described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,159,601, hereby incorporated by reference. The olefin shown in the previous two formulas can be almost any type of olefin but is preferably an alkenylene having from 2 to 8 carbon atoms, a cycloalkenylene have from 5 to 7 carbon atoms or styrene. Specific olefins utilizable in the above formulas are ethylene, propylene, the various isomers of butylene, octylene, cyclopentene, cyclohexene, cycloheptene, and the like.
[0050] A further platinum containing material usable in the compositions of the present invention is the cyclopropane complex of platinum chloride described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,159,662 hereby incorporated by reference.
[0051] Further the platinum containing material can be a complex formed from chloroplatinic acid with up to 2 moles per gram of platinum of a member selected from the class consisting of alcohols, ethers, aldehydes and mixtures of the above as described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,220,972 hereby incorporated by reference.
[0052] The catalyst preferred for use with liquid injection molding compositions are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,715,334; 3,775,452; and 3,814,730 to Karstedt. Additional background concerning the art may be found at J. L. Spier, “Homogeneous Catalysis of Hydrosilation by Transition Metals, in Advances in Organometallic Chemistry, volume 17, pages 407 through 447, F. G. A. Stone and R. West editors, published by the Academic Press (New York, 1979). Persons skilled in the art can easily determine an effective amount of platinum catalyst. Generally, an effective amount for hydrosilylation ranges from about 0.1 to 50 parts per million of the total organopolysiloxane composition and all sub-ranges there between.
Example 1
[0053] By way of example, 19.9 grams (0.083 moles) of a C16-18 alpha olefin was mixed under a blanket of nitrogen gas with 1000 grams (0.21 moles) of a silyl hydride terminated polydimethylsiloxane and 5 ppm Pt added as Karstedt catalyst. The reaction was heated and stirred at 95° C. for approximately four hours to allow the olefin to add to the siloxane polymer. Quantitative chemical analysis of residual SiH indicated that the desired amount of hydrogen had been consumed in attaching the olefin to the siloxane. Optionally this product may be isolated before further reaction.
[0054] 6.5 grams (0.062 moles) of an ((MVi)2Q)4 resin was added to the product of the first reaction. An additional 5 ppm Pt as Karstedt catalyst was added and the reaction stirred and heated to 95° C. for approximately four hours. Quantitative chemical analysis indicated that the vinyl and hydride functional groups had reacted to the desired degree.
[0055] 67.6 grams (0.016 moles) of a vinyl terminated polydimethylsiloxane was added to the solution and the reaction was heated for four hours at 85 C. A dramatic increase in viscosity indicated the completion of the hydrosilylation reaction.
Example 2
[0056] Solvent Assisted Reactions
[0057] 1.5 grams (0.006 moles) of a C16-18 alpha olefin was mixed under a blanket of nitrogen gas with 75 grams (0.015 moles) of a silyl hydride terminated polydimethylsiloxane and 5 ppm Pt added as Karstedt catalyst. The reaction was heated and stirred at 95° C. for approximately four hours to allow the olefin to add to the siloxane polymer. Quantitative chemical analysis of residual SiH indicated that the desired amount of hydrogen had been consumed in attaching the olefin to the siloxane. Optionally this product may be isolated before further reaction.
[0058] 0.486 grams (0.0047 moles) of an ((MVi)2Q)4 resin was added to the product of the first reaction. An additional 5 ppm Pt as Karstedt catalyst was added and the reaction stirred and heated to 95° C. for approximately four hours. Quantitative chemical analysis indicated that the vinyl and hydride functional groups had reacted to the desired degree.
[0059] 5.07 grams (0.0012 moles) of a vinyl terminated polydimethylsiloxane was added to the solution and the reaction was heated for four hours at 85 C. A dramatic increase in viscosity indicated the completion of the hydrosilylation reaction. The reaction was cooled.
[0060] 0.0098 grams (1.9×10-5 moles) of an alkyl amine was added and the reaction stirred for one hour. 75 grams of a vinyl terminated polysiloxane was added to the solution as a carrier solvent. The Isopar C was removed by vacuum distillation from the solution to leave the product in solution.
[0061] Table 1 shows examples of the synthesis of the structures of the anti mist additives based on the path described above. The SiH/SiVinyl is the ratio of moles of silyl hydrides available for reaction to the moles of silyl vinyl available for reaction. In the compounds shown, the SiH/SiVinyl ratio runs from 0.2 to 2.75, but a larger usable range spans from 0.22 to 4.5.
[0062] Table 2 shows the anti misting behavior of the invention. The measurements were made during runs on 2.5 mil SC Rhi-Liner 12 paper using a pilot coater with a line speed of 2000 ft/minute. The paper was coated with a standard silicone paper release formulation containing ˜0.2% anti mist additive with a target of 0.6 to 0.9 pounds per ream. The mist was measured using a DustTrack Aerosol Monitor. The intake port was positioned in the highest observed misting area thus providing the highest expected values. The position does not reflect normal environmental testing nor does it guarantee specific values under all operating conditions. The measurement is in mg of mist material per cubic meter of air, the lower values being more desirable as they represent less misting.
[0063] The results show the anti misting materials generated for this invention reduce the amount of generated mist at 2000 ft/min compared to the control formulation containing no anti mist additive. Quite surprisingly the mist is often reduced by a factor of greater than ten, often by about 100
