Abstract:
Coating compositions comprising a polyurea formed from a reaction mixture comprising: (a) a first component comprising an isocyanate, the first component having a viscosity of ≦2000 centipoise at a temperature ≧7° C.; and (b) a second component comprising an amine. Substrates coated at least in part with such a composition are also disclosed. Footwear coated at least in part with polyurea are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A coating composition includes: (a) an acid functional polyol polymer having an acid value of greater than 9 mg KOH/g and less than 60 mg KOH/g, and a hydroxyl value of from 100 to 300 mg KOH/g; (b) a non-aminoplast derived crosslinker reactive with the acid functional polyol polymer; and (c) a non-aqueous liquid medium. Further, an equivalent ratio of functional groups on the crosslinker reactive with hydroxyl functional groups to hydroxyl functional groups on the acid functional polyol polymer is within a range of from 0.5 to 1.5. The coating composition is substantially free of an external catalyst. The coating composition cures at a temperature of less than 80° C.
Abstract:
A catalyst composition is provided. The composition comprises at least 30 percent by weight of a catalyst compound based on the total weight of solids in the catalyst composition; and a polymer prepared from ethylenically unsaturated monomers. The polymer either (i) has a backbone derived from substantially hydrophilic monomers and/or monomers containing groups that may be rendered substantially hydrophilic after polymerization, and a plurality of side chains along the backbone derived from substantially hydrophobic monomers, or (ii) has a backbone derived from substantially hydrophobic monomers and a plurality of side chains along the backbone derived from substantially hydrophilic monomers and/or monomers containing groups that may be rendered substantially hydrophilic after polymerization. The catalyst compound is contained within or encapsulated by the polymer. Methods of preparing the catalyst composition and curable compositions containing the catalyst composition are also provided.
Abstract:
A polyester polyol includes a reaction product obtained from: (i) a polyol including 3 or more hydroxyl groups; (ii) a dicarboxylic acid or an anhydride thereof that includes 3 carbon atoms or fewer between the carboxylic acid groups or the anhydride thereof; (iii) a monocarboxylic acid or an anhydride thereof; (iv) optionally a diol; and (v) optionally a dicarboxylic acid or an anhydride thereof that includes greater than 3 carbons between the carboxylic acid groups or the anhydride thereof. A molar ratio of (i)+(iv) to (ii)+(v) ranges from 1.08:1 to 1.75:1, and a molar ratio of (i)+(iv) to (iii) ranges from 1.25:1 to 4:1. The reaction product has a hydroxyl value of from 60 to 300 mg KOH/g, and an acid value of less than 15 mg KOH/g.
