Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a coating composition.
More specifically, the present invention can be applied as an interlayer chipping-resistant paint for a vehicle outer steel sheet with a low film thickness or as a chipping-resistant paint for a vehicle underbody having a film thickness of 300 μ or more, and both have good chipping resistance. Regarding things.

2. Description of the Related Art The outer skin of an automobile body, for example, the lower part of the outer skin of the vehicle body, the lower part, and the undercarriage of a car body, are hit by strong flying stones during running, so-called "chipping peeling" occurs, which deteriorates the appearance. The steel plate of the car body on the peeled off portion is exposed and rusted, and corrosion progresses. For this reason, serious attention has been paid to measures against "chipping peeling", and research and development of paints with excellent chipping resistance have been carried out. As an automobile primer or an intermediate coating composition, a coating composition that does not reach the base even when scratched by using a specific pigment (JP-A-53-45813), a coating composition using an isocyanate compound (JP-A-54) -73836, JP-A-57-68176
No. gazette) is proposed.

However, in the method of using a composition containing 20 to 50% by weight of talc having a particle size of 10 to 20 μ (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 53-45813), scratches due to chipping hardly reach the steel plate surface of the base material. However, the rusting of the outer steel plate of the vehicle itself is reduced, but the peeled area of the top coat is large, which has the drawback of spoiling the appearance.

Further, the method using isocyanate (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 54-73836) has a drawback that the chipping resistance is not sufficient, and a compound obtained by reacting polybutadiene having a hydroxyl group with an isocyanate group is used. In the case of the above method (JP-A-57-68176), the chipping resistance is good, but there is a drawback in that the finished appearance after topcoat coating is poor.

Various types of so-called flooring anti-chipping coating compositions have been proposed for the purpose of preventing rust underneath the vehicle body. For example, a composition using a polyol, an isocyanate and an amino resin (Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 174570
However, in the method of using a chipping resistant coating composition using this composition, if a good chipping resistance performance is to be obtained, it is necessary to coat the film with a thickness of 300 μm or more. If the thickness is less than 300 μ, there is a drawback that the chipping resistance is drastically reduced. Furthermore, the appearance of the coating film is inferior, and it cannot withstand use as a steel plate outside the vehicle body.

On the other hand, a method has been proposed in which a so-called "interlayer chipping-resistant paint" is applied to a steel plate outside the vehicle body for the purpose of improving the chipping resistance between an undercoating electrodeposition paint and an intermediate paint. For example, a method of coating a coating composition composed of a soft polyester resin and a melamine resin, a method of coating a coating composition composed of a polyhydroxy compound and a blocked isocyanate compound, and a coating composition composed of a polyolefin resin grafted with maleic acid. The method etc. are known.

[0007]

However, although the method of using these interlayer anti-chipping paints is superior in chipping resistance performance to the case of using the above-mentioned intermediate coating for automobiles or the primer composition, It is only possible to prevent the slight chipping from peeling off the steel plate outside the vehicle body, and it is not possible to deal with the severe chipping that may occur under the vehicle body or under the chassis. In addition, a method has been proposed in which one kind of paint is applied on the steel plate outside the vehicle body at a low film thickness of 25 to 150μ, and at the lower part is applied at a thick film of 300 to 500μ, but the minimum is the minimum. From 25μ,
No material has yet been found that can be applied without sagging to a maximum of 500μ, and has no external defects such as an aside.

[0008] Therefore, in the present situation, in the painting of the vehicle body, the underside chipping-resistant paint and the interlayer chipping-resistant paint for the outer steel plate of the vehicle body are applied separately. In such a coating method, there are some cases in which not only an increase in the number of steps by coating two kinds of paints but also a problem such as a decrease in inter-layer adhesion in the coating overlap portion of the two kinds of paints.

Under these circumstances, it has been long awaited to develop a coating composition capable of coating the outer steel sheet and the lower part with one kind of coating material and maintaining good chipping resistance in both parts. .

[0010]

In view of the above situation, the present inventors have conducted extensive studies to improve the above-mentioned problems,
We have found a coating composition that can be coated on both the steel plate and the lower part of the vehicle body and that exhibits good chipping resistance,
Finally, the present invention has been completed.

That is, in the present invention, (A) 1 part is added to 100 parts by weight of the resin solid content of the epoxy resin having a hydroxyl group.
An epoxy resin containing a hydroxyl group and having a number average molecular weight of 500 to 5000, which is obtained by reacting 0 to 70 parts by weight of a cyclic ester and / or a ring-opening polymer of a cyclic ester,
(B) Hydroxyl group-containing, number average molecular weight of 400 to 100
0 polyester polyol resin, (C) a polyisocyanate compound in which an isocyanate group is blocked, and (D) a microgel having a particle diameter of 0.2 to 1.5 μ, wherein the isocyanate group of the (C) component is (A) 0.5 to 2.0 with respect to 1 equivalent of hydroxyl group of the component and the component (B)
A coating composition in which an equivalent amount of the component (D) is 1 to 60 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the total of the components (A), (B), and (C). The glass transition temperature of the cured coating film is -20 ° C to 0 ° C, the elongation is 10 to 100% at a temperature of 20 ° C, the elongation is 1 to 50% at a temperature of -20 ° C, and the tensile strength is 400 at a temperature of 20 ° C.
The coating composition has a viscosity of ˜700 Kgf / cm ² .

The chipping resistant coating composition used in the present invention will be described.

A hydroxyl group-containing compound obtained by reacting 10 to 70 parts by weight of a cyclic ester with 100 parts by weight of a resin solid content of an epoxy resin having a hydroxyl group contained in the coating composition used in the present invention. And number average molecular weight 500
The epoxy resin (A) of 5,000 is a number average molecular weight of 500 produced by reacting a bisphenol A-based or bisphenol F-based epoxy resin with a cyclic ester and / or a ring-opening polymer of a cyclic ester. ~ 5000
And a mixture of two or more of the hydroxyl group-containing epoxy resins.

The grounds for using such a resin will be described below.
According to the research conducted by the inventors, when coating the steel plate outside the vehicle body,
In order to improve the appearance of the coating film, a coating with a low film thickness of 25 to 150 μ is applied, but if good chipping resistance is to be obtained in this thickness range, the glass transition temperature of the cured coating film will be − 20 ° C to 0 ° C, elongation at 10 ° C to 100% at temperature of 20 ° C, 1 to 50% at temperature of -20 ° C, and tensile strength of 400 to 700 Kgf at temperature of 20 ° C.
It must be in the range of / cm ² .

The tensile strength in the range of 400 to 700 Kgf / cm ² is effective in preventing damage and breakage of the coating film due to stone splashes, and setting the film thickness to 300 to 500 μ will prevent severe chipping in the lower part. However, it exhibits sufficient chipping resistance.

At a temperature of 20 ° C., 10 to 100
%, And having an elongation rate of 1 to 50% at a temperature of -20 ° C., sufficient adhesion of the chipping resistant coating to the substrate can be uniformly maintained in a wide film thickness range of 25 to 500 μ, and chipping peeling can be prevented. It can be prevented.

The environment in which the automobile body is used is generally -20 ° C to 40 ° C, and the glass transition point is -20 ° C to 0 ° C in order to maintain constant physical properties in such an environment.
Must be within the range. In order to realize such physical properties of the cured coating film, it is preferable to use a urethane resin. For example, by combining a polyester polyol and a blocked isocyanate, the glass transition temperature of the cured coating film is −20 ° C. to 0 ° C. The elongation is 20
10 to 100% at ℃, 1 to -20 ℃
Although it is possible to achieve physical properties in the range of 50%, the tensile strength in this case is at most 300 Kgf / cm.
² , the composition intended by the present invention cannot be obtained. Therefore, the tensile strength is 400 Kgf by further using a bisphenol A epoxy resin such as Epicoat 1004 (produced by Yuka Shell Epoxy Co., Ltd.) in combination with the polyester polyol and the blocked isocyanate.
/ Cm ^{2 to} 700 Kgf / cm ² , but on the contrary, the elongation at a temperature of 20 ° C. decreases to 1 to 5%, and the desired physical properties cannot be obtained.

On the other hand, when a hydroxyl group-containing epoxy resin obtained by reacting an epoxy resin with a cyclic ester is used in combination with a combination of a polyester polyol and a blocked isocyanate, it is possible to obtain the above-mentioned cured coating physical properties. The inventors of the present invention have found out that they are to be used in the chipping-resistant coating composition of the present invention.

By using a hydroxyl group-containing epoxy resin obtained by reacting an epoxy resin with a cyclic ester, the desired cured coating film physical properties can be obtained because of the linear molecular structure obtained by reacting the cyclic ester. It is considered that this is because both of the resulting flexible structure and the rigid structure derived from the bisphenol skeleton originally possessed by the epoxy resin main chain are contained.

As an example of such a resin, for example, 100 parts by weight of a bisphenol A epoxy resin having an epoxy equivalent of 450 g / 1 equivalent, a reaction product of 25 parts of ε-caprotactone, and an epoxy equivalent of 700 g / 1 equivalent of bisphenol F are used. Reaction product of 100 parts by weight of epoxy resin and 16 parts of ε-caprolactone, epoxy equivalent 450
Gram / 1 equivalent of bisphenol A type epoxy resin 10
A reaction product of 0 parts by weight and 40 parts of γ-valerolactone is known.

When the weight ratio of the above cyclic ester to 100 parts by weight of the epoxy resin is less than 10 parts by weight, the finished appearance is deteriorated, and when it exceeds 70 parts by weight, the chipping resistance is deteriorated, which is not preferable. The epoxy resin obtained by reacting the cyclic ester has a number average molecular weight of 50.
It is 0 to 5000, preferably 1000 to 4000.
If the molecular weight is lower than 500, the chipping resistance is deteriorated, and if it exceeds 5,000, the coating workability is deteriorated and the finished appearance is impaired, which is not preferable.

It also contains a hydroxyl group and has a number average molecular weight of 40.
The polyester polyol resin (B) of 0 to 1000 means one or more of reaction products of a polyhydric alcohol and a polycarboxylic acid and / or an anhydride thereof in a less than stoichiometric amount. It is a mixture. When the number average molecular weight is lower than 400, the chipping resistance is deteriorated, and when the number average molecular weight exceeds 1,000, the chipping resistance,
Particularly, the chipping resistance after exposure to a deteriorated environment such as a high temperature and high humidity environment is deteriorated, which is not preferable.

Examples of polyhydric alcohols are, for example, ethylene glycol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,3-propanediol, 1,3-butanediol, 1,4-butanediol, isomeric pentanediols, isomeric hexane. Diols or octane diols such as 2-ethyl-1,3-hexanediol, 1,2-, 1,3- and 1,4-bis (hydroxymethyl) -cyclohexanone, trimethylolpropane, glycerin and the like can be mentioned. it can.

Examples of polyvalent carboxylic acids and polycarboxylic acid anhydrides include oxalic acid, succinic acid, adipic acid, sebacic acid, phthalic acid, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid and itaconic acid. Carboxylic acid,
Trivalent carboxylic acid such as trimellitic acid, phthalic anhydride,
Examples thereof include polyhydric carboxylic acid anhydrides such as tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, maleic anhydride and trimellitic anhydride, and dimeric or trimeric fatty acids such as castor oil fatty acid trimers.

In the coating composition used in the present invention, a mixture of the above epoxy resin and polyester polyol resin is used. The mixing ratio of the epoxy resin (A) and the polyester polyol resin (B) is not particularly limited, but 50 to 90 parts by weight of the polyester polyol resin is preferable with respect to 100 parts by weight of the epoxy resin.

Next, the polyisocyanate compound (C) having an isocyanate group blocked contained in the coating composition used in the present invention means that the isocyanate group of the polyisocyanate compound is blocked with a commonly used blocking agent. One or a mixture of two or more compounds, and examples of the polyisocyanate compound include 2,4-
And / or 2,6-diisocyanatotoluene,
2,4-diisocyanato-dicyclohexylmethane,
4,4-diisocyanato-dicyclohexylmethane,
Hexamethylene diisocyanate, diisocyanates such as 1-isocyanate-3,3,5-trimethyl-5-isocyanatomethylcyclohexane, and these diisocyanates, and polyhydric alcohols in less than equivalent amounts such as ethylene glycol, 1,2-propanediol, 1, 3-
Propanediol, 1,3-butanediol, 1,4-
Butanediol, trimethylolpropane, an adduct formed by a reaction with glycerin, or the like, or a biuret trimer of the above-mentioned diisocyanate, an isocyanurate trimer of the above-mentioned diisocyanate, etc. It is a reaction of a blocking agent. As examples of such blocking agents, phenol, p-substituted phenol, alcohols, ε-caprolactam, ketoxime, acetone oxime, etc. are known, and various selections are possible.

The mixing ratio of the mixture of the above-mentioned epoxy resin (A) and polyester polyol (B) and the blocked isocyanate compound (C) is such that 1 equivalent of the hydroxyl group of the mixture component of the epoxy resin and the polyester polyol corresponds to the blocked isocyanate compound. Isocyanate group is 0.5
Both components are mixed at a ratio of up to 2.0 equivalents, and if the isocyanate group is less than 0.5 equivalents or more than 2.0 equivalents, the chipping resistance is lowered.

The microgel having a particle diameter of 0.2 to 1.5 μ used in the present invention is used for the following purposes.
That is, by containing a microgel having a particle diameter of 0.2 to 1.5 μm, it is possible to impart thixotropic properties to the coating material and obtain a material that can be coated without causing dripping even in thick film coating of 300 μm or more. . Usually, in order to improve the sagging limit, a method of adding fine particles of calcium carbonate, fine particles of anhydrous silica, etc. is adopted, but with these means, the chipping resistance often deteriorates, which is not preferable. On the other hand, when microgel is used, a coating material having a good balance of coating workability such as sagging property and chipping resistance can be obtained without causing such problems. For this purpose, the particle size of the microgel is 0.2 to 1.5 μ, preferably 0.4 to 1.
A range of 0μ is suitable. If the particle size is less than 0.2 μ or more than 1.5 μ, the thixotropic property of the coating material is not suitable for thick film coating, and therefore the coating property with a thick film of 300 μ or more deteriorates, and sagging, armpits, cracks, Defects such as peeling are likely to occur, and as a result, chipping resistance may decrease.

For this purpose, the microgel having a particle diameter of 0.2 to 1.5 μ contained in the coating composition is one of acrylic or vinyl monomers having one ethylenically unsaturated double bond in the molecule. Particles of the gel particles produced after suspension polymerization of one or more species and one or more species of crosslinkable monomers having two or more ethylenically unsaturated double bonds in the molecule. It is a fraction of components having a diameter of 0.2 to 1.5 μm.

Examples of acrylic or vinyl monomers having one ethylenically unsaturated double bond in the molecule used are methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, isopropyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, Ethyl methacrylate, isopropyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate,
Examples thereof include styrene, vinyltoluene, vinyl acetate, acyl modified acrylate and acyl modified methacrylate.

Examples of the crosslinkable monomer having two or more ethylenically unsaturated double bonds in the molecule include ethylene glycol diacrylate, diethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate,
Trimethylolpropane triacrylate, neopentyl glycol diacrylate, pentaerythritol tetraacrylate, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, diethylene glycol dimethacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, neopentyl glycol dimethacrylate, pentaerythritol tetramethacrylate, etc. Can be given.

The ratio of acrylic or vinyl monomer to crosslinking monomer is 99: 1 to 1:99, preferably 95: 5 to 70:30. When the cross-linking monomer is 1 or less, the microgel is dissolved in the paint, which is not preferable.

The coating composition used in the present invention contains, in addition to the above-mentioned epoxy resin, polyester polyol resin, resin component consisting of blocked isocyanate and microgel, a coloring agent such as carbon black, if desired.
Pigments such as titanium dioxide, tertiary amines, curing catalysts such as organic tin compounds, fluidity modifiers, various additives such as antifoaming agents, and hydrocarbons such as toluene, xylene and solvent naphtha, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, Organic solvents such as esters such as amyl acetate, ketones such as methyl ethyl ketone, methyl butyl ketone, phorone and isophorone can be contained. The content of these pigments, additives, solvents and the like is not particularly limited, but the pigments are set to 150% by weight or less based on the total amount of the resin components in order to obtain the above-mentioned physical properties of the cured coating film. Is desirable.
If it exceeds 150% by weight, the elongation percentages at 20 ° C and -20 ° C may both decrease.

The coating composition of the present invention can be applied to the outer steel sheet of the vehicle body and the lower and underbody parts by a conventional coating method such as air spraying, airless spraying, electrostatic coating or dip coating. However, the coating film thickness is, for example, 25 to 150 μ, and preferably 25 to 75 μ for the steel plate outside the vehicle body. Good chipping resistance in the steel plate portion outside the vehicle body can be obtained in the range of 25 to 150 μ,
If the thickness is less than 25μ, the chipping resistance is deteriorated. Again 1
If it is thicker than 50μ, the chipping resistance will be further improved, but the vehicle body weight will increase as the film thickness increases, and energy saving,
It is not preferable from the viewpoint of cost. On the other hand, the film thickness range is, for example, 300 for the lower part of the vehicle body and the underbody part.
Is ~ 500μ. When the thickness is less than 300 μ, the resistance to the severe chipping applied to the lower part of the vehicle body or the underbody is insufficient. Absent.

The coating composition is applied by the above-mentioned means and then dried by heating. The heating and drying conditions are, for example, 70 to 100%, preferably 75 to 9%, for the coating composition gel fraction of the coating composition.
The condition that the range is 9% is preferable. If it is less than 70%, not only defects in coating workability such as pinholes, armpits, or reduction in finished gloss occur but also the tensile strength is lowered in various physical properties of the cured coating film, which is not preferable.
Especially when coating as an inter-layer chipping-resistant paint on steel plates outside the vehicle body, the solvent contained in the intermediate coating that is subsequently applied to the chipping-resistant paint dissolves the chipping-resistant coating layer and makes the curing incomplete, so the tensile strength is It is considered that there is a particularly high possibility that it will decrease.

An example of drying conditions for obtaining the gel fraction of such a coating film is 100 to 140 ° C. for 3 minutes to 30 minutes.
Minutes. Normally, on the steel plate outside the vehicle body, this paint is applied, after drying, the middle coat that is normally used, and then the top coat is applied. Under the vehicle body and undercarriage, the paint of the present invention is usually applied, and after being dried, generally no other paint is applied, but other paints may be applied if desired.

In the coating process using the coating composition of the present invention, the electrodeposition coating composition, the intermediate coating composition and the top coating composition, excluding the chipping-resistant coating composition of the present invention, are not particularly limited, and are commercially available conventionally. Goods can be used.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to Examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In the description, parts and% are weight unless otherwise specified.
