By the way, one of the effects expected from an organic solvent in a paint for spray coating is an effect of adjusting the viscosity of the paint in the process of spray coating to film formation. That is,
A typical conventional paint is about 40 in mass ratio with the paint before being sprayed from the spray gun, that is, in the initial state.
It contains a large amount of organic solvent such as ~ 60 wt% and is adjusted to a low viscosity. This makes it possible to smoothly atomize the liquid paint into a mist when spraying the paint from the spray gun. In addition, if the paint viscosity in the initial state is too high and the paint is not atomized smoothly during spray coating, it will cause a poor appearance such as dullness in the formed coating film.

In the coating material sprayed from the spray gun and atomized, a part of the organic solvent having a low boiling point is evaporated and the viscosity is increased while flying to the object to be coated. This thickening effect suppresses sagging when the coating material is applied to the object to be coated. On the other hand, when the amount of organic solvent in the coating material applied to the object is extremely small and the viscosity is extremely high, the coating surface of the coating film becomes uneven due to a decrease in the fluidity of the coating material. Will result in poor appearance. In this way, the organic solvent in the paint, adjusting the viscosity of the paint in the film formation process from spray coating well, smooth atomization of the paint during spray coating,
It contributes to the prevention of sagging during coating and the formation of a smooth coating surface.

On the other hand, however, the organic solvent, which is expected to have the above-mentioned effects, needs to be used in a reduced amount for the purpose of resource saving as the pollution problem due to evaporation is highlighted. There is. Therefore, water-based paints and high solid paints are being actively developed. However, the water-based paint has a problem that water, which is a solvent, has a lower evaporation rate than an organic solvent, so that it is slow to dry and takes a long time to form a coating film. In addition, the amount of volatilization from the time it is sprayed until it is applied to the object to be coated is small,
There is also a problem that the viscosity increase after application is small and sagging easily occurs.

In view of this, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-262568 discloses that coating particles discharged from a coating gun and flying have a wavelength of 2 to 10 3 μm.
The coating method of irradiating the electromagnetic wave and volatilizing the solvent in the coating particles by heating with the electromagnetic wave is disclosed. According to this coating method, the solvent in the coated particles is instantaneously heated and volatilized by the electromagnetic wave, so that the viscosity of the coated particles is considerably increased when the solvent is applied to the object to be coated. Therefore, even with a water-based paint, the increase in viscosity after application is large and dripping can be prevented.

Further, in the high solid paint, the method of simply reducing the amount of the organic solvent has a limit in view of the useful function of the above-mentioned organic solvent. In other words, if the amount of organic solvent is reduced and the resin concentration is simply increased by that amount, the viscosity of the paint in the initial state becomes too high, and smooth atomization is not performed during spray coating, resulting in poor appearance such as matteness. Occur. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the viscosity of the coating film-forming element itself such as resin and reduce the amount of organic solvent to enable spray coating.

By the way, in the case of coating in a production line, the coating is constantly circulated in order to keep the coating conditions constant. Therefore, in order to efficiently circulate and to maintain the coating suitability during spraying, it is necessary to adjust the viscosity of the coating to a low viscosity of 100 to 300 cP.

In order to further reduce the viscosity of the high-solid paint, it is desirable to further reduce the viscosity of the film-forming element itself which becomes the matrix. However, as the amount of organic solvent decreases and the content of the coating film forming element increases, the difference in viscosity between the time of being discharged from the spray gun and the time of coating is smaller, and the lower the viscosity of the coating film forming element itself is. There is a fundamental problem that dripping is likely to occur.

Even when the method disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 3-262568 is used, since the amount of the diluent in the high-solid paint is originally small, the effect of increasing the viscosity due to the volatilization of the diluent during the flight is expected. Can not. Furthermore, JP-A-3-2625
In the method disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 68, the sprayed coating particles fly while spreading, so it is necessary to set a large irradiation range in order to irradiate the electromagnetic waves to the entire coating particles in flight, which requires a large apparatus. Become. Further, the flight time of the coating particles is almost constant and short, and it is difficult to change the irradiation time of the electromagnetic wave. Therefore, it is also difficult to change the viscosity at the time of coating by changing the irradiation time.

A general acrylic resin obtained by radical copolymerization with the body can be used.

The heating type cross-linking agent is not particularly limited, and a general heating type cross-linking agent such as melamine or polyisocyanate can be used corresponding to the acrylic resin. The organic solvent is not particularly limited, and a general organic solvent such as toluene, xylene, butanol can be used. However, the thickening effect of the polymerization components can effectively prevent the occurrence of sagging at the time of coating, so that it may evaporate after being sprayed from the spray gun and before being coated on the object to be coated. It is not necessary to dare to use an organic solvent having a low boiling point. For this reason, it is preferable to use an organic solvent having a boiling point as high as possible so as to secure the fluidity of the coating film and contribute to the formation of a smooth coating surface after coating the coating object.

When the viscosity increases due to the polymerization of the polymerized components and the sprayability decreases, a high shear stress is applied to the coating composition by a spray device, or the coating composition is heated to forcibly reduce the viscosity and then sprayed. It is desirable to discharge from the device.

In the coating method of the present invention, the viscosity of the paint in normal times can be set to about 100 to 300 cP (10 to 30 cPa · s) and can be smoothly circulated and used. Then, the coating composition is irradiated with electromagnetic waves in the middle of the conduit before being discharged from the spray. Then, the polymerization component contained in the composition undergoes a polymerization reaction to increase the viscosity of the coating composition.

When spray coating suitability decreases due to increase in viscosity, hot spraying or the like is used. That is, by heating the viscosity-increased coating composition, the viscosity of the coating composition is forcibly reduced, and the viscosity becomes spray coatable, and smooth atomization is achieved. Since the coating particles discharged from the spray are atomized, they are excellent in the smoothness of the coating surface when they are applied to the object to be coated. Then, the coating particles are recovered to the same viscosity as in the original pipeline mainly by cooling with the atmosphere, and when they are applied to the object to be coated, the viscosity is recovered to, for example, about 1000 cP (100 cPa · s). Therefore, dripping is prevented.

Further, since electromagnetic waves are generally applied to a pipe having a small diameter, the equipment for electromagnetic wave irradiation may be small.
Further, since the length of the pipeline is generally not limited, it is possible to control the viscosity increasing degree of the coating composition by varying the length of the pipeline for irradiating the electromagnetic wave, and it is easy to control the viscosity. Further, the polymerization reaction is generally hindered by the presence of oxygen, but since the coating composition in the pipeline is irradiated with electromagnetic waves to polymerize, the hindrance of oxygen can be avoided and the polymerization reaction can be carried out efficiently.
