Definitions

  • This invention relates to certain novel thermo— setting powder coating compositions. More particularly, this invention provides a composition comprising a blend of an aromatic polyester, and aliphatic polyester, and a self—blocked polyisocyanate.
  • Thermosetting powder coating compositions are used extensively to produce durable protective coatings on various materials.
  • Thermosetting coatings when compared to coatings derived from thermoplastic composi ⁇ tions, generally are tougher, more resistant to solvents and detergents, have better adhesion to metal substrates, and do not soften when exposed to elevated temperatures.
  • the curing of thermosetting coatings has created problems in obtaining coatings which have, in addition to the above—stated desirable characteristics, good smoothness and flexibility.
  • Coatings prepared from thermosetting powder composi— tions upon the application of heat, may cure or set prior to forming a smooth coating, resulting in a relatively rough or non-uniform finish.
  • thermo ⁇ setting coatings to be applied from organic solvent systems which are inherently undesirable because of the environmental and safety problems sometimes occasioned by the evaporation of the solvent system.
  • Solvent—based coating compositions also suffer from the disadvantage of relatively poor percent utilization, i.e., in some modes of application, only 60 percent or less of the solvent—based coating composition being applied contacts the article or substrate being coated. Thus, a substantial portion of solvent—based coatings can be wasted since that portion which does not contact the article or substrate being coated obviously cannot be reclaimed.
  • the polymeric materials constituting powder coating composi ⁇ tions must melt within a particular temperature range to permit timely and ample flow of the polymeric material prior to the occurrence of any significant degree of curing, i.e., cross—linking.
  • Powder coating composi— tions which possess the requisite melting range provide smooth and glossy coatings upon being heated to cure the compositions.
  • coatings derived from thermosetting coating compositions should exhibit or possess good impact strength, hard— ness, flexibility, and resistance to solvents and chemicals. For example, good flexibility is essential for powder coating compositions used to coat sheet (coil) steel which is destined to be formed or shaped into articles used in the manufacture of various household appliances and automobiles wherein the sheet metal is flexed or bent at various angles.
  • amorphous polyesters utilized in powder coating formulations desirably possess a glass transi ⁇ tion temperature (Tg) higher than the storage tempera ⁇ tures to which the formulations will be exposed.
  • Semi- crystalline polyesters and blends thereof with amorphous polyesters also may be utilized in powder coating formulations.
  • semi—crystalline polyesters desirably possess a significant degree of crystallinity to prevent caking or sintering of the powder for a reasonable period of time prior to its application to a substrate.
  • Semi-crystalline polyesters used in powder coating formulations also must have melting temperature low enough to permit the compounding of the powder coating formulation without causing the cross—linking agent to react prematurely with the polyesters.
  • the lower melting temperature of the semi- crystalline polyester also is important to achieving good flow of the coating prior to curing and thus aids the production of smooth and glossy coatings.
  • a coated article typically is heated at a temperature in the range of about 325 to 400°F (163-204°C) for up to about 20 minutes causing the coating particles to melt and flow followed by reaction of the cross—linking (curing) agent with the polyester.
  • the degree of curing may be determined by the methyl ethyl ketone rub test described hereinbelow.
  • a thermosetting coating is considered to be completely or adequately cross—linked if the coating is capable of sustaining 200 double rubs. It is apparent that the use of lower temperatures and/or shorter curing times to produce adequately cross-linked coatings is very advantageous since higher production rates and/or lower energy costs can be achieved thereby.
  • the products marketed as e—caprolactam—blocked isophorone diisocyanate may consist primarily of the blocked, difunctional, monomeric isophorone diisocyanate, i.e., a mixture of the cis and trans iso ers of 3—isocyanatomethyl—3,5,5— tri ethylcyclohexylisocyanate, the blocked, difunctional dimer thereof, the blocked, trifunctional trimer thereof or a mixture of the monomeric, di eric and/or trimeric forms.
  • the blocked polyisocyanate compound used as the cross—linking agent may be a mixture consisting primarily of the e—caprolactam—blocked, difunctional, monomeric isophorone diisocyanate and the e—caprolactam—blocked, trifunctional trimer of isophorone diisocyanate.
  • the reaction of the isocyanato groups with the blocking compound is reversible at elevated temperatures, e.g., about 150°C and above, at which temperature the isocyanato groups are available to react with the hydroxyl groups present on the polyester to form urethane linkages, thereby cross—linking or curing the coating composition.
  • e—caprolactam is liberated from the powder coating compositions.
  • adducts of the 1,3-diazetidine—2,4—dione dimer of isophorone diisocyanate and diols have been developed for use as cross—linking agents in powder coating compositions.
  • Such adducts and powder coating composi ⁇ tions containing the adducts are described in the literature such as, for example, U. S. Patent 4,413,079, German OLS 3,328,133, and the Journal of Chromatography, 472 (1989) 175—195.
  • an aliphatic polyester derived from 1,4—cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid and 1,4— butanediol can be blended with an aromatic polyester and formulated into a powder coating with a self—blocked isocyanate and which has better cure and physical properties than coatings not containing the aliphatic polyester.
  • Figure 1 is a graph of QUV weathering of the powder coatings of Comparative Example 1, and Examples 2 and 3, all of which are described in the Experimental Section below.

  • the coated panels pass a 0.125 inch conical mandrel test and have a T—bend flexibility value of 1. After 520 hours of QUV exposure, the coating retains 50% of the 60° gloss.
  • Example 2 Using the procedure described in Example 2, a powder coating composition was prepared from the following materials:
  • Example 2 panels were coated with this powder coating composition and the coatings were cured and evaluated.

  • This example illustrates the typical procedure for preparing the aliphatic polyesters of this invention using 1,4—cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid.
  • a 3000 mL, 3— necked, round—bottom flask equipped with a stirrer, a short distillation column, and an inlet for nitrogen was charged with 1,4—cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid (1100.3 g, 6.39 mol), 1,4-butanediol (629.77 g, 6.68 mol), 1.5 g of butanestannoic acid (FASCAT 4100) catalyst.
  • the flask and contents are heated under nitrogen atmosphere at
  • the temperature was then increased to 215° C for 2 hours and then to 235° C for 8 hours to produce a low melt viscosity, colorless polymer.
  • the polymer has an inherent viscosity of 0.25, a melting point of 155° C, and a hydroxyl number of 36.
  • Example 2 183.4 g Self—blocked isophorone diisocyanate (Huls BF 1540) ; 10.0 g Dibutyltin dilaurate; 10.0 g Benzoin; 15.0 g MODAFLOW III; 400.0 g Ti0 2 ; 10.0 g TINUVIN 144; and 10.0 g TINUVIN 234.

  • 15.0 g MODAFLOW III 400.0 g Ti0 2 ; 10.0 g TINUVIN 144; and 10.0 g TINUVIN 234.
  • Example 2 panels were coated with this powder coating composition and the coatings were cured and evaluated.
  • the coatings have both front and back impact strengths of >160 inch—pounds and 20° and 60° gloss values of 84 and 96, respectively, and a pencil hardness of F.
  • the coated panels pass a 0.125 inch conical mandrel and have a T—bend flexibility value of 0. After 600 hours of QUV exposure, the coating retains 50% of the 20° gloss.
  • a powder coating composition was prepared from the following materials:
  • Example 2 232.0 g Self-blocked isophorone diisocyanate (Huls BF 1540) ; 12.0 g Dibutyltin dilaurate;
  • Example 2 Using the procedure of Example 2, panels were coated with this powder coating composition and the coatings were cured at 177°C for 20 minutes and evaluated. Coated panels have front impact of 60 inch- pounds and back impact of 10-inch pounds. The 20° and 60° gloss values were 86 and 96, respectively, and the pencil hardness is F. The coated panels fail a 0.125 inch conical mandrel test and have a T—bend flexibility value of 6. After 220 hours of QUV weathering exposure, the coating retains 50% of the 60° gloss.
