Abstract:
A multi-component composite coating composition comprising an aqueous-based film-forming composition serving as a color coat or a basecoat and a polyepoxide-polyacid clearcoat is disclosed. The polyacid is made from ring opening a polybasic anhydride with a polyester polyol formed from reacting a polyol with a polycarboxylic acid having at least 20 contiguous carbon atoms between the carboxylic acid groups.
Abstract:
There are provided: a method for forming a shining coating film which can form a coating film extremely excellent in a leveling property and a brightness with good workability and can also realize the reduction of environmental burden; and a coated article excellent in a design property obtained by this method. In a method comprising the steps of sequentially coating a shining material-containing solvent type first base coat coating, a shining material-containing solvent type second base coat coating and a top clear coating onto a base material and baking a formed multilayered coating film at the same time, an improvement is made so that the resin composition and coating nonvolatile concentration of the first and second base coat coatings and the amount of nonvolatiles in the first and second base coating films will have specific conditions.
Abstract:
A method of painting a substrate coated with an electrocoat, wherein the electrocoat includes an average surface roughness equal to or greater than 3 microns, includes applying a two-component sealer onto the electrocoat to form a film having a thickness of from 5 microns to 20 microns. The two-component sealer is partially cured by application of heat to a gel content of from 10 to 50 wt. %. Thereafter, a topcoat, typically including a basecoat and a clearcoat, is applied onto the two-component sealer. Both the two-component sealer and the topcoat are completely cured by application of heat.
Abstract:
A method of forming a composite coating is provided including (a) applying a first powder base coating to a substrate; and (b) either (1) applying a second powder base coating comprising flake or platelet effect pigment and heating the first and second base coats to substantially level the second base coat and allow migration of the effect pigment to a surface region thereof but not sufficient to cause the second base coat to cure; and (2) applying a top coating and substantially curing the resultant composite coating; or alternatively, (3) heating the first base coat to form a generally continuous film; (4) applying the second powder base coating comprising the effect pigment and heating the second base coat to substantially level the second base coat and allow migration of the effect pigment to a surface region thereof; and (5) applying the top coating and substantially curing the resultant composite coating.
Abstract:
Liquid composition based on organic solvents to facilitate the adherence of coatings to substrates.A composition having the following ingredients provides excellent adherence characteristics to coatings applied to various substrates pretreated with the composition. The composition contains a mixture of organic solvents as follows:from 17 to 35% of xylenes,from 4 to 14% of ethylbenzene,from 55 to 75% of white spirit, and optionallyfrom 0.05 to 3% of an methylpolysiloxane modified by a polyether oil.The composition may be used on substrates like steel, iron, copper, brass, chrome, tin, aluminum, glass, earthenware, rubber, plastic and polyesters. It leads to improved adherence to such substrates of coatings like paint, varnish, glue and mastic as well as coatings applied by chrome-plating, galvanization and gold and silver plating.

Abstract:
A coated metal fastener and a coating composition that has particular affinity for plaster materials and the like is disclosed. The composition that is applied to the fastener contains a copolymer of styrene and maleic anhydride and a thermoplastic resin, preferably polyvinyl acetate, in an inert organic solvent. The organic solvent can be an aromatic solvent, a ketone, a chlorohydrocarbon, or a mixture thereof. The composition is applied to the fastener by conventional methods and cured thereon at about ambient temperature.
Abstract:
A process for converting a fluid system of a machine from an oil based fluid system to a water based fluid system. A solvent and perfluoroethylene resin are added to the fluid system in sufficient amounts to remove extraneous matter from and coat the surfaces within the fluid system with the perfluoroethylene resin. The oil based fluid, solvent and perfluoroethylene resin are circulated throughout the fluid system for a time sufficient to remove extraneous matter and coat the surfaces. The fluid system is evacuated of the oil based fluid, solvent and residual perfluoroethylene resin, and a water based fluid is added to the fluid system.
Abstract:
A coated substrate such as an adhesive tape is produced by applying to a substrate a solution of a mixture of a rubber (eg. natural rubber) and a tackifier (eg. a petroleum resin) dissolved in a solvent (eg heptane) wherein the solution, prior to its application to the substrate, has been subjected to evaporation in a thin film evaporator so that the concentration of rubber and tackifier in the solvent is at least 35, usually at least 45 weight percent so enabling faster coating speeds.
Abstract:
High solids coating methods and apparatus are disclosed which eliminate many of the disadvantages associated with known coating processes. The techniques disclosed require only a minor amount of a volatile solvent to achieve atomization and application of a paint or other coating material. High solids coating compositions containing about 70-99% by weight solids are atomized and coated. This method also enables polymeric compositions having high molecular weight to be employed as coating materials. According to techniques described, liquid compositions containing film-forming solids are kept under pressure with a minor amount of a highly volatile solvent of from about 1 to 30% by weight, even as low as about 1-10% by weight, at a temperature above the normal boiling point of the solvent. Such a composition is then atomized by releasing the pressure upon a stream of the composition at a temperature above the normal boiling point of the solvent and below the minimum foam temperature at atmospheric pressure for the composition. The film-forming solids are thus conveyed with or without an external atomizing means.
