Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of making reduced VOC polymers and coating compositions containing polymers. Provided is a mixture (I) comprising a reactant mixture (a) of polymerizable components and a nonvolatile solvent (bnv) that (i) is not a crystalline solid at 25°C, (ii) is nonvolatile, (iii) comprises at least one functional group (F1) and (iv) is a fluid solid. Reactant mixture (a) is polymerized to provide a polymer (a'). At least one functional group (F1) of nonvolatile solvent (bnv) is reacted with one or more reactants (e) to obtain a nonvolatile solvent (b'nv) comprising at least two functional groups (F2). Obtained is a mixture (II) comprising polymer (a') in nonvolatile solvent (b'nv) comprising at least two functional groups (F2). The at least one functional group (F1) is substantially nonreactive: (1) with the components of reactive mixture (a), (2) under the polymerization conditions which polymerize reactant mixture (a), and (3) with polymer (a').
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of making an environmentally durable material, the method requiring providing a material comprising at least one functional group Fc, and subjecting the material to a free radical source such that substantially all functional groups Fc are eliminated but the material is not polymerized. In one embodiment, the functional group Fc is at least one of a nonaromatic carbon-carbon double bond, a hydrogen atom alpha to an aromatic ring, a hydrogen atom alpha to a carbon-carbon double bond, or a hydrogen atom attached to a tertiary substituted carbon. In another embodiment, functional group Fc is present in the material as a contaminant. In one exemplary embodiment, the material comprises from 0.05 to less than 15 % by weight of functional group Fc, based on the total weight of the material.
Abstract:
The invention provides carbamate-functional resins and coating compositions incorporating said resins that have improved adhesion with respect to subsequently applied films or coatings. More particularly, the invention relates to carbamate-functional addition polymers having at least 250 grams of polymer per carbamate group which are made with less than 35 percent by weight of nonfunctional monomers, preferably with less than 20 percent by weight and most preferably from 0 to less than 10 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the polymer. The invention further provides a method of making a carbamate-functional polymer and carbamate-functional polymers made by the claimed method. Finally, the invention provides a method for improving the adhesion of a first coating composition to a subsequently applied material as well as a method of making a composite comprising a coated substrate, an adhesive composition, and a glass having at least one surface.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a coating composition containing 1) a carbamate-functional resin having in its structure a hyperbranched or star polyol core, a first chain extension based on a polycarboxylic acid or anhydride, a second chain extension based on an epoxy containing compound, and having carbamate functional groups on the core, the second chain extension, or both; and 2) a second resin containing functional groups reactive with the carbamate groups on the carbamate-functional resin. In one embodiment, the coating compositions are used as a clearcoat to be applied over a basecoat to form a composite coating. The compositions exhibit a combination of desirable properties, such as scratch and mar resistance, resistance to environmental etch, good intercoat adhesion, and high solids.
Abstract:
The invention provides coating compositions comprising a reactive component (a) which is substantially free of any heteratoms and is a not a crystalline solid at room temperature and which comprises from (i) 12 to 72 carbon atoms, and (ii) at least two functional groups, and (b) a crosslinking agent comprising a plurality of functional groups (iii) reactive with the functional groups (ii) of compound (a), wherein functional groups (ii) and (iii) are selected such that reaction there between produces a thermally irreversible chemical linkage. The coating compositions of the invention provide improved solids, chip resistance, flexibility and/or scratch & mar resistance while maintaining desirable and/or improved performance characteristics with regard to environmental etch, relative humidity, QCT, chip resistance, thermoshock resistance, cold crack resistance, adhesion and the like.
