る。 Traditionally, the formation of coatings presents various problems in terms of thermal energy, pollution, and productivity. In the coating film forming method most commonly employed in industry, after a substrate article is coated, the coated article is transported into a baking oven and the coating film is baked at high temperature. This baking requires a large amount of thermal energy, and an expensive exhaust treatment system is required to remove harmful components such as solvents and paint tar generated during baking of the paint film from the exhaust gas. In addition, in the case of painting woodwork, etc., where the paint film cannot be baked at high temperatures, the paint film must be cured by air drying, which requires an extremely long time to harden, and during which time the wet paint cannot be used. Strict management is required to prevent dust from adhering to the membrane.

ることが了解されるべきである。 The paint used in the apparatus of the present invention is a paint containing a prepolymer containing free isocyanate groups, and is cured by contact with gas phase ammonia or amine, which will be described in detail later. Suitable examples of such paints are called isocyanate group-terminated prepolymers, such as polyester polyols, polyether polyols, hydroxyl group-containing acrylic resins, hydroxyl group-containing vinyl resins, alkyd resins,
An oligomer or polymer having reactivity with isocyanate groups such as polyamide is reacted with a polyisocyanate such as tolylene diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, cyclohexane diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, and the isocyanate is reacted with urethane bonds, urea bonds, etc. Those bonded to the skeleton of the oligomer or polymer via a bonding agent are used. Of course, the above-mentioned oligomer or polymer reactive with isocyanate groups and the polyisocyanate may be reacted in advance or partially reacted in the form of a mixture, and this coating material may be used in combination with multiple polyisocyanates. It may be a mixture of different resins. In summary, it should be understood that any coating material may be used for purposes of the present invention as long as it contains a sufficient amount of free isocyanate groups to be cured with gas phase ammonia or amine.
遊離イソシアネート基の濃度は、一般に樹脂分
100g当り10乃至500ミリモル、特に30乃至300ミ
リモルの範囲にあるのが望ましい。 The concentration of free isocyanate groups is generally determined by the resin content.
A range of 10 to 500 mmol, particularly 30 to 300 mmol per 100 g is preferred.

ある。 This paint can be used as a solvent-free paint if it is a liquid with a viscosity suitable for painting, or it can be used as a solution-type paint in which the prepolymer is diluted with a solvent. Of course, this paint contains components known per se, such as pigments, plasticizers,
It is blended with surfactants, anti-sag agents, rust preventive agents, etc. in known proportions. Suitable coatings have a non-volatile concentration of 20 to 100% by weight and a kinematic viscosity (foed cup #4) of 15 to 150 seconds.

な利点が達成される。 Substrates 10 to be coated include, in addition to substrates formed from ordinary steel plates or surface-treated steel plates, manufactured products whose paint film is difficult to bake due to heat, textile products, plastic products, hydraulic equipment products, and castings with a large heat capacity. Particularly in the case of the latter substrates, the significant advantages of the present invention are achieved in that no thermal baking is necessary and the coating film hardens rapidly.

ローコート等の他の塗布方式も採用し得る。 As the coating mechanism 13, a spray coating mechanism such as an air spray gun, an airless spray gun, a rotary atomization type coating device, etc. is suitably used, including non-electrostatic type and electrostatic type. Of course, other coating methods such as dip coating, roller coating, flow coating, etc. may also be employed depending on the type of substrate.
