Definitions

  • the invention relates to a process for the production of essentially uncrosslinked hyperbranched, water-soluble or water-dispersible polyesters from dicarboxylic acids and polyether polyols which have at least 3 OH groups. It also relates to water-soluble or water-dispersible hyperbranched polyesters which can be obtained by such a process, and to the use of such water-soluble polyesters for the production of polyaddition or polycondensation polymers and for the production of printing inks, adhesives, coatings, lacquers and coatings.
  • Dendrimers, arborols, starburst polymers or hyperbranched polymers are names for polymer structures which are distinguished by a branched structure and high functionality.
  • Dendrimers are molecularly uniform macromolecules with a highly symmetrical structure. Due to the high functionality and the highly symmetrical structure, they have many interesting properties. The use of dendrimers has been proposed in a wide variety of technical fields. However, dendrimers have to be synthesized in multi-step syntheses starting from a central starter molecule and are therefore very expensive. Accordingly, their technical use is limited to special cases in the high price sector. More economical alternatives to dendrimers are required for wider use.
  • hyperbranched polymers are both molecularly and structurally inconsistent. They have branches of different lengths and branches.
  • the term "hyperbranched polymers" is described, for example, in Sunder et al. , Chem. Eur. J. 2000, 6, No. 14, pages 2499 to 2506 and in the literature cited there. The article also discloses typical examples of this class of polymers.
  • hyperbranched does not simply mean a high degree of branching of a polymer. Rather, it is characteristic that hyperbranched polymers have particularly regularly arranged branching points.
  • So-called AB x monomers are particularly suitable for the synthesis of hyperbranched polymers. These have two different functional groups A and B, which can react with one another to form a link. The functional group A is only contained once per molecule and the functional group B twice or more. The reaction of the AB x monomers with one another produces uncrosslinked polymers with regularly arranged branching points. The polymers have almost exclusively B groups at the chain ends.
  • Figure 1 shows a typical example of a hyperbranched polymer which can be obtained by reacting an AB monomer.
  • Fig. 1 Synthesis scheme for hyperbranched polymers from AB monomers.
  • WO 93/17060 discloses a process for the production of dendrimeric polyesters.
  • a polyol as starter molecule for example trimethylolpropane, is reacted with dimethylolpropionic acid in such an amount that a first-generation dendrimer is formed.
  • Higher-generation dendrimers are formed by the gradual addition of dimethylolpropionic acid.
  • the polyester obtained can then be further functionalized.
  • dimethylolpropionic acid is also expensive and the process allows little flexibility.
  • Polyesters containing polyether polyols as a building block have been disclosed several times.
  • No. 4,983,712 discloses the production of radiation-curable polyesters from a mixture of terephthalic acid, adipic acid and possibly further dicarboxylic acids on the one hand, and a mixture of an ethoxylated triol or polyol and a non-ethoxylated diol on the other hand.
  • the product obtained is further functionalized with acrylic acid.
  • the reaction takes place in the melt at 180 ° C - 250 ° C.
  • the high reaction temperature leads to undesirable side reactions such as dehydration, intermolecular crosslinking and discoloration of the product.
  • EP-A 383 118 discloses the production of crosslinkable (meth) acrylic group-containing polyesters from unsaturated dicarboxylic acids, at least one ether alcohol, which may have 1 to 4 OH groups, and (meth) acrylic acid.
  • EP-A 279 303 discloses the preparation of radiation-curable acrylates by reacting oxyalkylated, 2- to 6-valent alcohols, 2 to 4-valent carboxylic acids and acrylic or methacrylic acid followed by the reaction of excess carboxyl groups with epoxides.
  • GB-A 2 259 514 discloses the production of a polyester for improving the water wetting of objects from a mixture of a (poly) ether diol and a (poly) ether polyol on the one hand, the proportion of the diol in the mixture being 30 to 95% by weight and a mixture of aliphatic and alicyclic di or polycarboxylic acids.
  • the polyesters with polyether polyol units disclosed in the cited documents can also have branches.
  • none of the documents contain information on what conditions are required in order to obtain essentially uncrosslinked and hyperbranched, ie water-soluble or water-dispersible polyesters which have a regular branching structure.
  • the object of the present invention was to provide an economical process for the preparation of essentially uncrosslinked, water-soluble or water-dispersible hyperbranched polyesters from simple monomers.
  • the process should have a high degree of flexibility in order to optimally adapt the properties of the water-soluble or water-dispersible hyperbranched polyesters in a simple manner for specific applications.
  • Another task was to provide novel water-soluble or water-dispersible hyperbranched polyesters and their use for the production of polyaddition or polycondensation polymers, and of printing inks, adhesives, lacquers and coatings.

  • Adipic acid (102.6 g, 0.70 mol), PG-3 (150 g, 0.625 mol) and ethylene glycol (2.65 g; 0.043 mol corresponds to 6.9 mol% with respect to PG-3) were at 130 ° C melted as described in Example 2 melted. 0.17 g of Fascat® were added and the mixture was polymerized at a pressure of 60 mbar and a temperature of 130 ° C. The reaction time was 21 hours.
  • the properties of the polyester obtained are summarized in Table 2.
  • Phthalic anhydride (99.2 g, 0.67 mol) and PG-3 (150.8 g, 0.625 mol) were melted at 130 ° C. in the apparatus described in Example 2.
  • 0.20 g of Fascat® were added and the mixture was polymerized at a pressure of 150 mbar and a temperature of 150 ° C. After a reaction time of 16 h, the pressure was reduced to 50 mbar and polymerized at this pressure for a further 3 h.
  • Cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride (101.6 g, 0.695 mol) and PG-3 (148 g, 0.62 mol) were melted at 130 ° C. in the apparatus described in Example 2. 0.30 g of Fascat® were added and polymerized at normal pressure and a temperature of 150 ° C. After a reaction time of 4.5 hours, the pressure was reduced to 60 mbar and polymerized at this pressure for a further 9 hours.
  • Adipic acid (702 g, 4.8 mol), trimethylolpropane (537 g, 4 mol), 2.4 g Fascat® and 200 g toluene were heated to 125 to 130 ° C. under nitrogen and water formed was separated off with a water separator. After a reaction time of 11 hours, the toluene was distilled off under reduced pressure. The viscous, hyperbranched polyester was soluble in butyl acetate or THF but insoluble in water.
  • the acid number was determined in accordance with DIN 53402.
  • M w and M n were compared to PMMA by gel permeation chromatography in THF or dimethylacetamide
