Definitions
- the present invention relates to stable aqueous polyester dispersions useful as primers. More particularly, the aqueous polyester dispersions balance relatively high molecular weights and low hydroxyl numbers to provide a primer coating that effectively improves chip resistance of paint coatings overlaying the primer while maintaining adhesion and low levels of volatile organic compounds and low viscosities.
- Automotive and other durable coatings are complex multilayer systems which rely on certain performance criteria at each level for overall success.
- the bulk of the responsibility for providing improved chip resistance lies with the primer surface layer.
- improving chip resistance properties of automotive coatings or other types of protective or decorative durable coatings is clearly a system-dependent task.
- a chip-resistance test is by nature high in stress, impact, and shear, which intuitively generates hypotheses based on the softness, or rubber-like characteristics of the primer layer. Any contributions from the primer to increase brittleness eventually may lead to reduced chip performance. This can be related to the degree of cross linking. Very low and very high levels of cross linking in such systems lead to poor chip resistance.
- the coating does not possess the strength properties necessary to withstand the impact and shear forces applied by the gravel.
- the base molecular weight is usually too low to provide appropriate elastic properties associated with light cross linking. The result is flow and scission on gravel impact.
- An extremely high cross link density affords large numbers of covalent cross links which impart brittleness to the coating, and failure is based on the inability of the coating to absorb and evenly distribute these concentrated forces applied at the gravel impact.
- the material neither flows, nor elastically deforms, but instead suffers brittle fracture.
- cross linkers often cause VOCs by virtue of VOC by product release from the cross link reaction between the cross linkers and polymeric resin.
- the coatings overlying the primer and the primer base resin must each deliver a balance of properties to the final coating.
- the easiest way to maximize mechanical properties of the primer resin is to increase molecular weight. Increases in molecular weight, however, generally increase the viscosity of such resins. While high viscosity resins may be cut with organic solvents, this results in an undesirable increase in volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
- VOCs volatile organic compounds
- the present invention is directed to an aqueous dispersion of a polyester salt and polymeric vehicles which include the aqueous dispersions of a polyester salt.
- the polymeric vehicle is particularly effective for providing coating binders in cured primer coatings (the cured primer paint coating film).
- the primer coating compositions (also known as formulated coating compositions) are useful for multilayer paint coating films which have at least two layers of paint film including the cured primer coating composition film.
- the use of the primer polymeric vehicles of the present invention in conjunction with one or more additional overlaying top coating film layers provide a multiple layer coating system having improved adhesion and chip resistance.
- the primer polymeric vehicle of the invention permits the use of less cross linker to cross link the polyester salt.
- the use of less cross linker results in the release of less VOCs upon cross linking and a lower cross linker density in the cured coating binder film of in the cured primer coating composition.
- the reduced cross link density with the relative high molecular weight of the polyester salt provides improved chip resistance.
- the polyester salt of the present invention has a higher molecular weight which enhances chip resistance and needs less cross linker (which also enhances chip resistance) to cure into a useable film than a polyester which is compositionally the same (and is not a metal or ammonium salt), but has a lower molecular weight.
- the polymeric vehicle of the present invention includes a water dispersible polyester salt having unique combination of high molecular weight, a relatively low hydroxyl value or number, a unique ratio of hydroxyl value to number average molecular weight and a polyester with an acid value which permits formation of the water dispersible salt.
- the polyester salt is cross linkable to form a cured coating binder in a primer paint coating film which is chip resistant when it is part of a multilayer paint coating system which has at least two paint film layers including the cured primer paint coating film layer.
- the cured coating binder of the primer of the invention also renders the multilayer paint coating system chip resistant.
- the polymeric vehicle of the primer coating composition balances the hydroxyl value and number average molecular weight of the polyester salt in the aqueous dispersion to provide VOC reduction through the use of an aqueous system with reduced amount of cross linker as well as improved chip resistance and adhesion for the cured primer paint coating film of the primer coating composition.
- the desired hydroxyl number is generally inversely related to the polyester molecular weight.
- the polymeric vehicle for the primer coating composition or formulated coating comprises an aqueous dispersion of a polyester salt which is the residue of a polyester having a number average molecular weight of about 1500 Daltons and a hydroxyl value of about 90.
- the polyester has a hydroxyl equivalent weight of about 600. This aqueous dispersion is effective for providing the polymeric vehicle with less than about 5 weight percent organic solvent.
- the polymeric vehicle for the primer coating composition or formulated coating comprises an aqueous dispersion of a polyester salt which is the residue of a polyester having a number average molecular weight of about 2800 Daltons and a hydroxyl value of about 50.
- the polyester has a hydroxyl equivalent weight of about 1100. This aqueous dispersion is effective for providing the polymeric vehicle with less than about 5 weight percent organic solvent.
- the chip resistance of the multilayer paint coating system which includes the coating binder of the primer of the invention is superior to the chip resistance of a multilayer paint coating system which includes a primer which has compositionally the same polyester which has a lower molecular weight and is not a salt. It is these latter lower molecular weight polyesters which are generally used with organic solvent or mixed organic/water solvent systems. They are high in VOCs and generally require more cross linker to cure than the polymeric vehicle of the present invention.
- the polymeric vehicle for the primer coating composition or formulated coating comprises an aqueous dispersion of a polyester salt which is the residue of a polyester having a number average molecular weight of at least 1500 Daltons and a hydroxyl value of not more than 90.

- the polymeric vehicle of the primer when the polymeric vehicle of the primer is cured and a part of a multilayer paint coating system of at least two layers inclusive of the primer coating binder.
- the polymeric vehicle and the aqueous dispersion of the present invention have a viscosity of less than about 10 poise at a temperature of about 25° C. using less than about 5 weight percent organic solvent, and in an important aspect, less than about 2 weight percent organic solvent.
- the polyester salt requires less equivalent amounts of cross linker for cross linking than the same lower weight polyester (which is not a salt) having molecular weights of less than about 1500 Daltons, which polyester is generally less than about 800 Daltons.
- Suitable cross linkers include multifunctional amino resins and blocked isocyanate compounds.
- the polymeric vehicles of the invention generally will include from about 15 to about 25 weight percent crosslinker, based on the weight of the polymeric vehicle.
- Polymeric vehicles which use the low molecular weight polyesters previously described are polyesters which are not salts and which are used in high solids systems will generally require from about 35 to about 50 weight percent crosslinker.

- At least about 30 percent of the ionizable groups of the polyester polymer in the solvent are neutralized with an amount of neutralizer effective to form a solution of neutralized polymer salt. Thereafter the solution of neutralized polymer salt is mixed with water to form a blend of water/organic solvent/neutralized polymer. The organic solvent then is stripped from the latter blend at not more than about 65° C. to form a dispersion of neutralized polymer salt in water. This dispersion has a viscosity of less than about 10 poise at a temperature of about 25° C.

- the polymer is neutralized before it is blended with water so that water dispersible neutralized ionizable groups are generally evenly distributed throughout the polymer.

Abstract
Description
- The present application is a continuation-in-part application of U.S. Ser. No. 09/161,145 filed Sep. 25, 1998 and of U.S. Ser. No. 09/160,843 filed Sep. 25, 1998.
- The present invention relates to stable aqueous polyester dispersions useful as primers. More particularly, the aqueous polyester dispersions balance relatively high molecular weights and low hydroxyl numbers to provide a primer coating that effectively improves chip resistance of paint coatings overlaying the primer while maintaining adhesion and low levels of volatile organic compounds and low viscosities.
- Automotive and other durable coatings are complex multilayer systems which rely on certain performance criteria at each level for overall success. The bulk of the responsibility for providing improved chip resistance lies with the primer surface layer. However, improving chip resistance properties of automotive coatings or other types of protective or decorative durable coatings is clearly a system-dependent task. For many systems, there appears to be several key ingredients to achieving incremental improvements. A chip-resistance test is by nature high in stress, impact, and shear, which intuitively generates hypotheses based on the softness, or rubber-like characteristics of the primer layer. Any contributions from the primer to increase brittleness eventually may lead to reduced chip performance. This can be related to the degree of cross linking. Very low and very high levels of cross linking in such systems lead to poor chip resistance. In the case of low cross linking, the coating does not possess the strength properties necessary to withstand the impact and shear forces applied by the gravel. The base molecular weight is usually too low to provide appropriate elastic properties associated with light cross linking. The result is flow and scission on gravel impact. An extremely high cross link density affords large numbers of covalent cross links which impart brittleness to the coating, and failure is based on the inability of the coating to absorb and evenly distribute these concentrated forces applied at the gravel impact. The material neither flows, nor elastically deforms, but instead suffers brittle fracture. Further, cross linkers often cause VOCs by virtue of VOC by product release from the cross link reaction between the cross linkers and polymeric resin. Also complicating systems which use separate cross linking agents is the propensity for the cross linking agent to react with itself. For example, self-condensation of melamine cross linkers is a potential competing reaction, which may result in local areas of high concentration of highly cross linked melamine resin. This would produce localized brittleness which may result in chip or adhesion failures. Another key contributor to successful chip resistance is the adhesion of the primer to the substrate, and the subsequent adhesion of another paint coating to the primer (collectively intercoat adhesion). A major contributor to this effect is the functionality of the primer resin-polar group functionality including hydroxyl and carboxyl that play a key role in interactions with the substrate and other paint layers.
- In order to obtain the optimal chip-resistant properties, the coatings overlying the primer and the primer base resin must each deliver a balance of properties to the final coating. The easiest way to maximize mechanical properties of the primer resin is to increase molecular weight. Increases in molecular weight, however, generally increase the viscosity of such resins. While high viscosity resins may be cut with organic solvents, this results in an undesirable increase in volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
- The present invention is directed to an aqueous dispersion of a polyester salt and polymeric vehicles which include the aqueous dispersions of a polyester salt. The polymeric vehicle is particularly effective for providing coating binders in cured primer coatings (the cured primer paint coating film). The primer coating compositions (also known as formulated coating compositions) are useful for multilayer paint coating films which have at least two layers of paint film including the cured primer coating composition film. The use of the primer polymeric vehicles of the present invention in conjunction with one or more additional overlaying top coating film layers provide a multiple layer coating system having improved adhesion and chip resistance.
- The primer polymeric vehicle of the invention permits the use of less cross linker to cross link the polyester salt. The use of less cross linker results in the release of less VOCs upon cross linking and a lower cross linker density in the cured coating binder film of in the cured primer coating composition. The reduced cross link density with the relative high molecular weight of the polyester salt provides improved chip resistance. While not intending to be bound by a theory, the polyester salt of the present invention has a higher molecular weight which enhances chip resistance and needs less cross linker (which also enhances chip resistance) to cure into a useable film than a polyester which is compositionally the same (and is not a metal or ammonium salt), but has a lower molecular weight. These lower molecular weight polymers are used in high solids systems and are dispersed in an organic solvent or mixed organic/water solvent system. Moreover, the molecular weight of the polyester in the latter high solids system can not be increased without also increasing the viscosity of the polymer dispersion or solution (increasing molecular weight inherently increases viscosity in such systems). Hence, the polymeric vehicle of the present invention includes a water dispersible polyester salt having unique combination of high molecular weight, a relatively low hydroxyl value or number, a unique ratio of hydroxyl value to number average molecular weight and a polyester with an acid value which permits formation of the water dispersible salt.
- The polyester salt is cross linkable to form a cured coating binder in a primer paint coating film which is chip resistant when it is part of a multilayer paint coating system which has at least two paint film layers including the cured primer paint coating film layer. The cured coating binder of the primer of the invention also renders the multilayer paint coating system chip resistant. Hence, the polymeric vehicle of the primer coating composition balances the hydroxyl value and number average molecular weight of the polyester salt in the aqueous dispersion to provide VOC reduction through the use of an aqueous system with reduced amount of cross linker as well as improved chip resistance and adhesion for the cured primer paint coating film of the primer coating composition.
- For enhancing chip resistance of coatings systems in which primers of the invention are used, the desired hydroxyl number is generally inversely related to the polyester molecular weight. By way of example, the polymeric vehicle for the primer coating composition or formulated coating comprises an aqueous dispersion of a polyester salt which is the residue of a polyester having a number average molecular weight of about 1500 Daltons and a hydroxyl value of about 90. In such aspect, the polyester has a hydroxyl equivalent weight of about 600. This aqueous dispersion is effective for providing the polymeric vehicle with less than about 5 weight percent organic solvent. At a higher molecular weight, the polymeric vehicle for the primer coating composition or formulated coating comprises an aqueous dispersion of a polyester salt which is the residue of a polyester having a number average molecular weight of about 2800 Daltons and a hydroxyl value of about 50. In such aspect, the polyester has a hydroxyl equivalent weight of about 1100. This aqueous dispersion is effective for providing the polymeric vehicle with less than about 5 weight percent organic solvent.
- The chip resistance of the multilayer paint coating system which includes the coating binder of the primer of the invention, is superior to the chip resistance of a multilayer paint coating system which includes a primer which has compositionally the same polyester which has a lower molecular weight and is not a salt. It is these latter lower molecular weight polyesters which are generally used with organic solvent or mixed organic/water solvent systems. They are high in VOCs and generally require more cross linker to cure than the polymeric vehicle of the present invention.
- In an important aspect of the invention, the polymeric vehicle for the primer coating composition or formulated coating comprises an aqueous dispersion of a polyester salt which is the residue of a polyester having a number average molecular weight of at least 1500 Daltons and a hydroxyl value of not more than 90. In one aspect, the polyester has a hydroxyl equivalent weight of about 600 to about 1100. This aqueous dispersion is effective for providing the polymeric vehicle with less than about 5 weight percent organic solvent. In another important aspect, the salt of the polyester in the aqueous dispersion has a particle size of less than 400 nm.
- In yet another aspect, the polyester salt is the residue of a polyester having an acid value of at least 30, and in an important aspect, from about 40 to about 50, the polyester salt having a hydroxyl value of from about 90 to about 50 and the salt having a number average molecular weight of from about 1500 to about 2800 Daltons (not including the cationic portion of the salt, that is the salt includes the residue of a polyester where the polyester has a molecular weight of from about 1500 to about 2800 Daltons). The polymeric vehicle of the invention is effective for providing a multilayer paint coating system and primer coating binder with a two pint chip number rating of at least about 5 and a two pint chip size of at least about A (using the Society of Automotive Engineers Chip Test No. J400) when the polymeric vehicle of the primer is cured and a part of a multilayer paint coating system of at least two layers inclusive of the primer coating binder. Despite the use of a relatively high molecular weight polyester, the polymeric vehicle and the aqueous dispersion of the present invention have a viscosity of less than about 10 poise at a temperature of about 25° C. using less than about 5 weight percent organic solvent, and in an important aspect, less than about 2 weight percent organic solvent.
- As previously stated above, the polyester salt requires less equivalent amounts of cross linker for cross linking than the same lower weight polyester (which is not a salt) having molecular weights of less than about 1500 Daltons, which polyester is generally less than about 800 Daltons. Suitable cross linkers include multifunctional amino resins and blocked isocyanate compounds. The polymeric vehicles of the invention generally will include from about 15 to about 25 weight percent crosslinker, based on the weight of the polymeric vehicle. Polymeric vehicles which use the low molecular weight polyesters previously described are polyesters which are not salts and which are used in high solids systems will generally require from about 35 to about 50 weight percent crosslinker.
- In accordance with the present invention, an ionic functional polyester polymer is synthesized neat and subsequently mixed with hydrophilic organic solvent. The aqueous polymer dispersion is made by forming a polyester having sufficient ionizable groups to provide the polyester with an acid value of from about 30 to about 50. The polymer has a solubility in the hydrophilic solvent of at least about 50 weight percent, and the organic hydrophilic solvent has a solubility in water of at least about 5 weight percent. As previously stated, the polyester prior to neutralization reactions to form a salt, has a number average molecular weight of at. least about 1500, and in an important aspect, about 1500 to about 2800 and a hydroxyl number of from about 50 to about 90. At least about 30 percent of the ionizable groups of the polyester polymer in the solvent are neutralized with an amount of neutralizer effective to form a solution of neutralized polymer salt. Thereafter the solution of neutralized polymer salt is mixed with water to form a blend of water/organic solvent/neutralized polymer. The organic solvent then is stripped from the latter blend at not more than about 65° C. to form a dispersion of neutralized polymer salt in water. This dispersion has a viscosity of less than about 10 poise at a temperature of about 25° C. The neutralizer may be any salt-forming base compatible with the ionizable functional polymer such as sodium hydroxide or an amine. In a very important aspect the neutralizer is an amine type which is selected from the group consisting of ammonia, triethanol amine, dimethyl ethanol amine, and 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol. Not all of the ionizable groups on the polymers need to be reacted with the base (or neutralized).
- Depending on the type of ionizable groups present in the polymer it may be important that the polymer is neutralized before it is blended with water so that water dispersible neutralized ionizable groups are generally evenly distributed throughout the polymer. It is also important that the organic solvent and some water are removed or stripped from the blend at a duration, temperature and pressure effective for providing an aqueous dispersion having a resin mean particle size of not greater than about 400 nm. In an important aspect the the polymer salt concentration is at least about 30 weight percent, the organic solvent concentration of less than 5 weight percent, and even less than 2 weight percent. In an important aspect, where the neutralizer is an amine or ammonia, the mean particle size of the resin is maintained with a stripping temperature of not more than about 65° C. at a pressure which permits such a stripping temperature.
- In another aspect, the invention provides formulated coatings that include aqueous polymer dispersions of the invention with co-solvents selected from the group consisting of butoxy ethanol, diethylene glycol monobutyl ether, secondary butyl alcohol, propylene glycol n-butyl ether, dipropylene glycol n-butyl ether, propylene glycol n-propyl ether, propylene glycol t-butyl ether, and mixtures thereof.

- The amount of neutralizer added is dependent on acid value and molecular weight. In one aspect, from about 30 to about 100 percent of the carboxyl groups are neutralized to obtain the solids level and low VOC level of the dispersions of the invention. In another aspect, neutralizer is mixed with the polyester polymer in an amount effective to provide at least about 70 parts polymer salt in less than about 30 parts solvent wherein with subsequent mixing with water, the neutralized polymer will provide a dispersion which comprises not more than about 70 weight percent water, based on the weight of the dispersion.
- In a very important aspect of the invention, where the ionizable group is carboxyl, the polyester requires about 70% to about 100% neutralization to stabilize the dispersion. In another important aspect of the invention, the process provides a mean particle size of not more than about 400 nm, with a typical mean particle size in the range of about 40 nm to about 200 nm as measured by laser light scattering.
- The polyester polymer can be preneutralized by making the polymer with metal, amine or ammonia salts of the ionizable groups such as —COOH. The polymer made from these “preneutralized” monomers would have an acid value, as measured by titration, of at least about 30 if the ionizable groups which form part of the polymer were not already neutralized. In this aspect of the invention, monomers have a polyfunctionality such as a difunctionality which permits them to form polymers that also have the salt form of the ionizable groups.
-
- where A and B are —OH and/or —COOH which can form a polyester in a condensation reaction and C is —COOX, where X is an alkali metal such as sodium or potassium.
- Addition of Water
- In the next step of stage two of the process, water having a temperature of about 25° C. to about 65° C. is added to the neutralized resin solution. Lower temperatures provide smaller mean particle sizes.
- In an important aspect of the invention, the initial ratio of solvent to water (solvent/water) is from about 0.15 to about 0.45 for polyester polymer. The initial ratio of solvent to water is important to ensure that inversion does not take place during subsequent stripping of solvent. The amount of water to be added may be greater than that required to obtain the desired solids of the final dispersion. Some water loss typically occurs during solvent distillation. The system requires sufficient solvent at the beginning to solubilize the salt prior to water addition.
- In an alternative aspect of the invention, polymer in hydrophilic solvent is added to water that already contains a neutralizer.
- Removal of Solvent
- In the next step of the process, the organic solvent and water if required are removed or stripped from the neutralized resin/water/solvent mixture. A reduced atmospheric pressure may be applied to the mixture to aid in the removal of solvent and water. In an important aspect, vacuum may range from about 22 inches to about 29 inches of mercury gauge. With lower temperatures, a higher vacuum must be used to remove solvent. Lower reaction temperatures result in less foaming, as the higher vacuum coupled with the surface tension of the bubbles helps to break the bubbles. In another aspect of the invention, solvent/water is stripped with heat being supplied through the use of a heat exchanger. Use of a heat exchanger may reduce distillation times and temperatures and further minimize destruction of the salt.
- In a very important aspect of the invention, solids levels of at least about 30 weight percent to about 45 weight percent can be attained for polyesters.
- In another aspect of the invention, solvent that is removed can be purified and reused. A simple flash or multiple stage distillation is sufficient to clean the solvent of any contamination.
- In an alternative aspect, the invention permits manufacture of the water dispersion from the polymer using one reaction vessel. The water dispersion of the invention does not require emulsifying agents and does not have more than about 2 weight percent, based on the weight of the composition, of organic solvent after the distillation of the solvent. In an important aspect, the aqueous dispersion contains from about 0.2 to about 2 weight percent organic solvent.
- The water dispersion of the invention includes the water dispersible amine salt of the polymer as well as the unsalified polymer, but in the aspect of the invention where the ionizable group is a carboxyl, the aqueous dispersion of the invention does not have less than 30 percent of the free carboxyl groups of the polymer neutralized or converted into a salt. As the acid number of the polymer goes down, the higher the percent of the carboxyl groups on the polymer must be neutralized. Where the ionizable groups are —COOH, to maintain the dispersion below an acid value of about 15, about 100% of the carboxyl groups on the polymer should be neutralized to the salt. In an important aspect of the invention, about 100% of the carboxyl groups on the polymer are neutralized to the salt and the dispersions of the invention do not have more than about 1 pound per gallon of dispersion (120 g/l) VOCs, and in a very important aspect the dispersion has about 0.2 pounds per gallon of dispersion VOCs. The water dispersion of the invention with about 0.2 pounds per gallon VOC is stable through at least about 1 freeze-thaw cycle, and up to about 4 freeze-thaw cycles. Freeze-thaw cycles can be increased with small amounts of solvents or glycols as is typically used for latex systems.
- The polymeric vehicle is incorporated into a formulated coating composition which upon heating provides a baked formulated coating composition or cured composition. Baking is above ambient temperatures with a cross linker to provide a coating binder. The polymeric vehicle which includes the water dispersion of the invention provides a formulated coating composition having VOCs of less than 1 pound per gallon of formulated coating composition, includes water dispersible polymers and salts thereof having the above indicated molecular weights and not only eliminates a need for, but is substantially free of emulsifiers, surfactants and coalescents.
- Water dispersion of such high molecular weight polymers provide a coating binder and baked formulated coating compositions with improved film performance characteristics which include, but are not limited to improved chip resistance, adhesion which is just as good as lower molecular weight higher VOC systems, improved lay down performance of the wet film, enhanced film build of the film per pass, faster dry times, improved corrosion resistant films per pass, improved corrosion resistant films, harder films, more abrasion resistant films, and improved humidity resistant films. The polymeric vehicle of the invention also provides coating binders for improved exterior “ultraviolet resistant” durable films which are derived from an aqueous low VOC formulated coating composition. Films provided from the invention are improved over that of aqueous thermoplastic emulsions or water reducible systems of low molecular weight thermoplastic or those thermosetting polymers requiring cross linking.
