Description

The The present invention describes a process for preparing water-emulsifiable Polyurethane acrylates and their use.

at the urethane (meth) acrylates which can be prepared according to the invention these are those which contain at least one polyalkylene glycol and which are therefore dispersed or diluted in water can be. Process for the preparation of water-soluble or emulsifiable, radiation-curable urethane (meth) acrylates are known. The hydrophilicity of such urethane (meth) acrylates is based on the water solubility of the polyethylene glycol or polypropylene glycol chain. In this way, the urethane (meth) acrylate becomes water-soluble and they are not counterions such as alkali cations or ammonium ions required for water dispersibility.

Water-dispersible urethane acrylates are already known from z. B. EP-A 98 752 or DE-OS 2,936,039 , The hydrophilicity of these known systems is based on the presence of ionic centers, in particular of carboxylate or sulfonate groups, which have as counterions alkali cations or ammonium ions which remain in the coatings finally obtained from the systems and considerably impair their water resistance. The often present amines (for neutralization) can otherwise cause a yellowing of the coatings.

It There is therefore a need for further urethane (meth) acrylates in which to be dispensed neutralization by yellowing amines can.

Often are used for better solubilization auxiliary solvents used, which released during the drying process be able to lead to an environmental impact. So what is desired is a low so-called. VOC value (volatile organic compounds), for example, by replacing organic Solvent can be achieved by water.

Another possibility for obtaining water-dilutable products is the use of external emulsifiers. For example, according to U.S. Patent No. 4,070,323 Acryloyl-carrying polyurethanes are dispersed in water with the aid of anionic or cationic oil-in-water emulsifiers (for example sodium lauryl sulfate). These emulsifiers are not incorporated in the paint film in a radical crosslinking. As a result, the degree of attainable water resistance of the paint films is thus disadvantageously lowered.

The water-soluble urethane (meth) acrylates according to the invention are polyurethanes containing (meth) acryloyl groups and alkylene oxide units incorporated within polyether chains, which are prepared by a specific process. Such hydrophilic polyurethanes are for example made Polymer Science USSR, Vol. 15, No. 4, May 1974, pages 814-822 . EP-A-0 168 173 . EP-A-0 154 237 . EP-A-0 021 824 or EP-A-0 381 862 and from Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Vol. 84, 1818-1831 (2002) known.

Not Also known is the particular invention Use of such urethane (meth) acrylates.

EP-A 287 736 discloses a preparation of urethane (meth) acrylates in which a polyol is presented in Example 1, to which first the isocyanate and finally a hydroxy-functional acrylate is added.

According to EP-A 381 862 For the preparation of urethane (meth) acrylates isocyanates are presented, to which polyol and hydroxy-functional acrylate are added.

This leads to a significant proportion of unreacted hydroxy-functional Acrylate.

WO 06/89935 describes the preparation of urethane (meth) acrylates by introducing a mixture of polyols and hydroxy-functional acrylate and adding to this isocyanate. However, polyethers as polyols are mentioned only within long lists.

According to the EP-A-0 126 299 ( U.S. 4,596,678 ) EP-A-126,300 ( U.S. 4,596,679 ) and EP-A-355 443 ( US 5 087 739 For example, (cyclo) aliphatic diisocyanates, e.g. B. 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), isomeric aliphatic diisocyanates having 6 carbon atoms in the alkylene radical, 4,4'- or 2,4'-di (isocyanatocyclohexyl) methane and 1-isocyanato-3-isocyanato-methyl-3, 5,5-trimethylcyclohexane (isophorone diisocyanate or IPDI) are prepared by reacting the (cyclo) aliphatic diamines with, for example, urea and alcohols to give (cyclo) aliphatic biscarbamic esters and their thermal cleavage into the corresponding diisocyanates and alcohols. The synthesis is usually carried out continuously in a cyclic process and optionally in the presence of N-unsubstituted carbamic acid esters, dialkyl carbonates and other by-products recycled from the reaction process.

The Coating materials are particularly suitable for coating Wood, wood-based materials and wood-containing substrates, such as fiberboard. Also conceivable is the coating of cellulose fibers, such as Paper, cardboard or cardboard.

It In particular, such woods are preferred, usually be used for parquet, such as oak, spruce, Pine, beech, maple, chestnut, sycamore, rubinia, ash, birch, Pine and elm, as well as cork.

Especially are the coating compositions as precoating (primer, primer) suitable for wood, especially for parquet. By Application of such coating compositions can be the abrasion properties improve.

The substrates are coated by customary methods known to those skilled in the art, at least one coating composition being applied to the substrate to be coated in the desired thickness and the volatile constituents of the coating compositions being removed. If desired, this process can be repeated one or more times. The application to the substrate can in a known manner, for. B. by spraying, filling, doctoring, brushing, rolling, rolling or pouring done. The coating thickness is generally in a range of about 3 to 1000 g / m ² and preferably 10 to 200 g / m ² .

Possibly can if several layers of the coating agent on top of each other are applied, after each coating process radiation curing respectively.

The radiation curing is effected by the action of high-energy radiation, ie UV radiation or daylight, preferably light of wavelength 250 to 600 nm or by irradiation with high-energy electrons (electron radiation, 150 to 300 keV). The radiation sources used are, for example, high-pressure mercury vapor lamps, lasers, pulsed lamps (flash light), halogen lamps or excimer radiators. The radiation dose for UV curing, which is usually sufficient for crosslinking, is in the range from 80 to 3000 mJ / cm ² .

The irradiation may optionally also in the absence of oxygen, for. B. under inert gas atmosphere, are performed. Suitable inert gases are preferably nitrogen, noble gases, carbon dioxide or combustion gases. Furthermore, the irradiation can be carried out by covering the coating composition with transparent media. Transparent media are z. As plastic films, glass or liquids, eg. B. water. Particular preference is given to irradiation in the manner as described in US Pat DE-A1 199 57 900 is described.

In a preferred method, the curing takes place continuously, by bringing the treated with the coating composition substrate constant speed past a radiation source. Therefor It is necessary that the curing speed the coating composition is sufficiently high.

this different temporal course of curing can be especially to take advantage when applied to the coating the article still connects a processing step, where the film surface is in direct contact with a other object occurs or is mechanically processed.

Of the The advantage of the coating compositions is that they are coated Objects immediately after radiation curing can process further because the surface is no longer sticks. On the other hand, the dried film is still so flexible and stretchable, that the object can still be deformed, without the film thereby flakes off or rips.

The Invention will be apparent from the following non-limiting Examples explained in more detail.
