Description

The present invention relates to a curable composition containing a reactive silicon group-containing polymer.

Reactive silicon group-containing polymers are known as moisture-reactive polymers, are contained in many industrial products such as adhesives, sealants, coating agents, paints, and adhesives, and are used in a wide range of fields. ..

As such a reactive silicon group-containing polymer, various polymers such as a polyoxyalkylene-based polymer having a main chain skeleton, a saturated hydrocarbon-based polymer, and a (meth) acrylic acid ester-based copolymer are known. However, among them, the polyoxyalkylene polymer has a wide range of application because it has a relatively low viscosity at room temperature and is easy to handle, and the cured product obtained after the reaction also exhibits good elasticity.

As a method for producing a reactive silicon group-containing polyoxyalkylene polymer, for example, an epoxy compound is ring-opened polymerized to synthesize a polyoxyalkylene polymer having a hydroxyl group at the terminal, and then the hydroxyl group is carbon-carbon double. A method of converting into a double bond and performing a hydrosilylation reaction between the carbon-carbon double bond and a silane compound is known (see, for example, Patent Document 1). It is also known that a stabilizer such as an antioxidant, an ultraviolet absorber, and a light stabilizer is blended with a reactive silicon group-containing polyoxyalkylene polymer to adjust the weather resistance.
