Description

Powder coating precursors and the purposes in powder paint compositions thereof
Present patent application has required the right of priority of the unsettled US60/488366 of submission on July 18th, 2003.
Background of invention
The electrostatic applications method that applies coloured coating in various substrates is well-known.In described method, use a kind of composition, but described composition is film-forming polymer and the charged powder mixture with pigment of required color.Regrettably, in the past, the preparation of this powder paint compositions that applies with the powder spraying device has brought the problem relevant with lamellar pigment.
Pearly pigment or pearl shape pigment have been simulated the effect of natural peral and have been made of platelet transparent in the spectrographic visibility region.Platelet is very smooth and make the luminous reflectance and the part of part irradiation platelet pass through the platelet transmission.Make of the layer reflection of the light of part transmission subsequently by other platelet.Multiple reflection takes place from many layers in the result, and this causes gloss to be deepened because eyes can not concentrate on the specific layer.
Because input angle equals reflection angle, the reflection that is taken place is a minute surface.Catoptrical amount is little and reduce fast with the catoptrical amount of the disappearance of mirror angle under the nonspecular surface angle.The result is that pearly pigment is extremely responsive to the visual angle.In order to reflect the light of maximum, platelet must be extremely smooth.Any surface irregularity causes light to be scattered in the mode of nonspecular surface and has reduced luster effect.
Platelet must be arranged in parallel with each other and be parallel to substrate to obtain maximum reflectivity.If do not arrange like this, light will reflect and make once more gloss reduction randomly.Catoptrical amount depends on refractive index, and along with refractive index increases, catoptrical amount increases.
The lamellar pigment of metallic substance depends on its laminate structure that obtains best appearance effect.Described thin slice for example comprises tinsel for example aluminium, bronze and stainless steel substrates and natural or synthetic pearly pigment, for example natural peral powder or the substrate that is coated with metal oxide for example be coated with titanium dioxide mica, be coated with ferric oxide mica, be coated with titanium dioxide glass, be coated with the glass of ferric oxide and be coated with the aluminum slice of iron.Destroyed in extruding that the laminate structure of described metallic pigment or pearly pigment is used in the coating composition that makes powder or the process of lapping, the appearance of coat that the result obtains demonstrates the luster effect of reduction.
The industrial trial is about to polymer support and the pigment mechanically mixing is avoided the problems referred to above by pigment and polymer powder being done mix.Regrettably, pigment and powder particle produce the different quantities of electric charge usually, and this is producing the powder paint compositions electrostatic spraying to substrate the time application problems and colour-change.In addition, pigment is tending towards separating from polymer powder, and its reason is not adhere in the substrate and the volume of the powder spraying composition that is recovered subsequently.As a result, the material of the excessive spraying of recovery is difficult to utilize again.
In order to overcome the problem that causes owing to dry mix, as United States Patent (USP) 5,187, described in 220, researched and developed a kind of dry mix, wherein powder base and pigment have been mixed, being heated to then is enough to make the surperficial remollescent temperature of powder particle so that pigment is adhered on the described particulate surface.Although this method is applicable to corona electro-static charge (corona electrostatic charging) and has alleviated the problem of utilizing the powder of excessive spraying again that it is a kind of more expensive method well.
Technical significant an improvement is described in United States Patent (USP) 5,824, in 144, at this its content is introduced with for referencial use.Provide the sticky table surface layer of polymkeric substance or other viscous liquid material to described metallic platelet pigment.But when the pigment that will handle mixes with powder paint compositions, powder adherence to the surface of pigment, thereby color separated is minimized.The also available powder encapsulate of pigment, thus single surface is provided.Also can realize the better charging of the granules of pigments that those do not adhere to powdered material.
Be with in powder paint compositions, using the relevant major issue of metallic platelet pigment, limited the concentration of the pigment that can add.Although spendable amount of pigment is up to about 10% or higher in the environment that single applies or in the laboratory, when needed as industry, when carrying out fairly large operation, concentration limit is about 3%.Being higher than under about 3% the level, produce many problems.These problems comprise that spray gun stops up and nozzle accumulation, spotted plate outward appearance and color separation.
Find, provide premium properties in a kind of treatment process aspect the scope of powder coating, former having developed of described treatment process is used for the outside pearly pigment that uses improved wet fastness and whole weathering resistance to be provided and to be used for the motor vehicle coating system (for example colored primer and clear finish) that the liquid coating system is for example carried by solvent or water.Surprisingly, when joining it in powder coating, the outside pigment that uses is handled the performance that applies of having improved pigment.Described improvement comprises that pigment is at the less accumulation in the port of electrostatic gun, improved conveying through feeding line, improved pigment transport efficiency and more uniform appearance of coat.License to same patentee's United States Patent (USP) 6,524,661 have instructed a kind of improved pearly pigment powder paint compositions, described composition comprises the mixture of particulate resin carrier and granular pigments, wherein pigment is stratiform containing metal pigment, its have first coating of hydrated aluminum oxide or hydrous ceria and aluminum oxide and hydrolysising silane coupling agent or with the first coating blended coating.The image of the scanning electron imaging microscope (SEM) of described product is shown in Fig. 4.SEM graphical representation is 5 at ratio of enlargement, 500x and 33, the mica platelet of employing silane surface-treated titanium oxide coating under the 000x.The powder coating compositions that comprises the pigment of external treatment has the advantage that makes the pigment minimizing separation in gun nozzle, in case but powder curing can influence the quality of the film of coated portion.We believe, do not have aluminium hydroxide on the outside surface of silane coating.Also referring to United States Patent (USP) 6,176,918.Therefore, because the pearly pigment of silane coating and the surface energy between the resin is poor, the powder coated film of solidified has the outward appearance of reticulate pattern outward appearance or orange peel shape.
Industrial known by with aluminum oxide and resin premixed, then pre-composition is mixed with pearly pigment, or similarly aluminum oxide, resin and pearly pigment are mixed simultaneously and aluminum oxide is joined in the powder paint compositions.Referring to Nargiello, Fumed Metallic Oxides ImprovePowder Processing and Application rolls up 4 (3) the 16th to 20 pages (in June, 1993).Shown in following comparative example 5, the mixture of preparation simultaneously sprayed to does not provide any outward appearance to improve on the sheet material.
