The present invention relates to a coating composition comprising an oxidatively drying coating binder and a chelating ligand according to the following formula I:
forming a complex with a metal ion. A1 and A2 both are an aromatic residue. R1 and R3 are covalently bonded groups, for example hydrogen or an organic group. R2 is a divalent organic radical. Together with a suitable metal ion, the chelating ligand can form a metal complex having a catalytic effect on the curing of oxidatively drying polymers, in particular alkyd resins.
US 3,956,211 discloses an alkyd based composition with a compound similar to that of formula I including a divalent lead ion, a zirconium ion or a divalent ion of a metal of the first transition group, except for nickel. In this disclosure, R1 and R3 are hydrogen. The effectiveness of these siccatives proved to be moderate.
EP-A 1 114 836 discloses the use of compounds of formula I for the preparation of resins for urushi lacquers by oxidative polymerization of phenol-functional vegetable oils.
The object of the invention is to improve the effectiveness of such chelating compounds.
The object of the invention is achieved by a coating composition according to the opening paragraph, wherein at least one solubilizing group is covalently bonded to the compound of formula I. It has been found that by improving the solubility of the compound, its effectiveness is increased substantially as well. Although it was to be expected that the presence of a solubilizing group, typically having an electron-inductive effect, would disturb the chelate function, it has been found that the catalyzing effect is better than with prior art siccatives.
When used for compositions based on organic solvents, non-polar solubilizing groups are preferred. Suitable examples of such non-polar groups are aliphatic groups having at least four carbon atoms. Optionally, these groups may be branched alkyl groups, such as tert. butyl groups. The solubilizing group can be covalently bonded to A1 and/or A2 and/or can be R1 , R2 and/or R3. Preferably, both aromatic groups are provided with a solubilizing group.
When used for water borne compositions, polyalkylene oxide groups, such as polyethylene oxide or polypropylene oxide groups, are preferred.
,'A1 and A2 are aromatic groups, for example derived from benzene or naphthalene, optionally substituted, e.g., with electron donating groups. Alternatively, A1 and/or A2 may be a heterocyclic aromatic group, derived from, for example, pyridine or quinoline.
R2 can be a linear, branched, or cyclic organic compound, such as ethylene, propylene, isopropylene, butylene, tert. butylene, pentylene, hexylene, a cycloalkylene, such as cyclohexylene, cycloheptylene, etc.
Optionally, A1 , A2, R1 , R2 and/or R3 can be covalently bonded to a polymer, or to one or more further groups according to formula I. A preferred embodiment is a poly-chelate having at least two groups according to formula I mutually linked by R1 and/or R3. The metal ion can be a divalent ion of a metal which may for example be selected from the group of manganese, cobalt, copper, lead, zirconium, iron, lanthanium, cerium, vanadium, and calcium.
Alternatively, the metal ion can be a trivalent or higher valency ion of a metal combined with one or more counterions. Suitable metals are for example manganese, cobalt, lead, zirconium, iron, lanthanium, and vanadium. Examples of suitable counterions are halogen ions, octoate, benzoxy or mixtures thereof.
The coating composition can be solvent borne, water borne or solvent-free. If the composition is solvent borne, non-aromatic solvents are preferred. A suitable solvent is for example Shellsol® D40, available from Shell.
Typical oxidatively drying binders are alkyd resins. At least a part of the alkyd resin is oxidatively drying as a result of the incorporation of a large number of unsaturated, aliphatic compounds, at least a portion of which is polyunsaturated. The unsaturated aliphatic compounds preferably are unsaturated fatty acids, more particularly polyunsaturated fatty acids. Examples of fatty acids comprising one equivalent of unsaturated CC bonds are myristoleic acid, palmitoleic acid, oleic acid, gadoleic acid, erucic acid, and ricinoleic acid and mixtures thereof. Examples of fatty acids comprising two or more equivalents of unsaturated CC bonds include linoleic fatty acid, linolenic fatty acid, elaeostearic fatty acid, licanic fatty acid, arachidonic fatty acid, clupanodonic fatty. acid, nisinic fatty acid, and mixtures thereof. Fatty acids containing conjugated double bonds, such as dehydrated castor oil fatty acid, wood oil fatty acid and/or calendula oil fatty acid, can be used as well. Fatty acids derived from soya oil are especially suitable.
Examples of suitable divalent polyol compounds are ethylene glycol, 1 ,3- propane diol, 1 ,6-hexane diol, 1 ,12-dodecane diol, 3-methyl-1 ,5-pentane diol,

Suitable polyols having more than 3 hydroxyl groups are pentaerythritol, sorbitol, and etherification products of the compounds in question, such as ditrimethylol propane and di-, tri-, and tetrapentaerythritol. Preferably, use is made of compounds having 3-12 carbon atoms, e.g., glycerol, pentaerythritol and/or dipentaerythritol.

If so desired, the carboxylic acids in question may be used as anhydrides or in the form of an ester, e.g., an ester of an alcohol having 1-4 carbon atoms.
Optionally, the oxidatively drying polyunsaturated condensation product may comprise other building blocks, which may for example be derived from monocarboxylic acids such as pivalic acid, 2-ethylhexanoic acid, lauric acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, 4-tert. butyl-benzoic acid, cyclopentane carboxylic acid, naphthenic acid, cyclohexane carboxylic acid, 2,4-dimethyl benzoic acid, 2-methyl benzoic acid, benzoic acid, 2,2-dimethylol propionic acid, tetrahydrobenzoic acid, and hydrogenated or non-hydrogenated abietic acid or its isomer. If so desired, the monocarboxylic acids in question may be used wholly or in part as thglyceride, e.g., as vegetable oil, in the preparation of the alkyd resin. If so desired, mixtures of two or more of such monocarboxylic acids or triglycerides may be employed. Optionally, isocyanates may also be used as building blocks for the oxidatively drying polyunsaturated condensation product. Suitable isocyanates are for example diisocyanates, such as 1 ,6-hexane diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, toluene diisocyanate, diphenyl diisocyanate, and dicyclo- hexylmethane diisocyanate. Triisocyanates can also be used.
The unsaturated groups in the oxidatively drying polyunsaturated condensation product are preferably introduced by the fatty acids, but may, alternatively or additionally, be introduced by one or more of the polyols, carboxylic acids or anhydrides or other building blocks used, such as fatty mono-alcohols.

A specific example of a suitable alkyd is the condensation product of soya oil, phthalic anhydride, and pentaerythritol.
The alkyd resins can be obtained by direct esterification of the constituent components, with the option of a portion of these components having been converted already into ester diols or polyester diols. Alternatively, the unsaturated fatty acids can be added in the form of a drying oil, such as sunflower oil, linseed oil, tuna fish oil, dehydrated castor oil, coconut oil, and dehydrated coconut oil. Transesterification with the polyols and, optionally, other building blocks will then give the final alkyd resin. This transesterification generally takes place at a temperature in the range of 115 to 250°C, optionally with solvents such as toluene and/or xylene also present. The reaction generally is carried out in the presence of a catalytic amount of a transesterification catalyst. Examples of transesterification catalysts suitable for use include acids such as p-toluene sulphonic acid, a basic compound such as an amine, or compounds such as calcium oxide, zinc oxide, tetraisopropyl orthotitanate, dibutyl tin oxide, and triphenyl benzyl phosphonium chloride. Optionally, the oxidatively drying binder can be used in combination with other resins, for example acrylic resins or polyurethanes. Preferably, the coating composition comprises at least 20 wt.% of oxidatively drying binder, more preferably more than 60% by weight of total binder.

The compound according to formula I can first be reacted with a metal ion, to form a metal complex which is subsequently added as a drier to the coating composition. Alternatively, the compound according to formula I can be added separately, before, during or after the addition of a metal. In such case, complexing takes place in situ. The metal can for example be added in the form of a salt, e.g. halide salts, nitrates, or salts of organic acids such as octoates, hexanoates or naphthanates.
