  • the decorative sheet material of the present invention includes a mask layer having additives designed to either migrate into the clear coat layer to enhance weatherability or other desirable properties of the clear coat layer or to prevent migration of additives from the clear coat into the mask layer.
  • a mask layer having additives designed to either migrate into the clear coat layer to enhance weatherability or other desirable properties of the clear coat layer or to prevent migration of additives from the clear coat into the mask layer Using the mask layer of the present invention, performance and appearance properties of the clear coat are enhanced because performance-enhancing additives in the clear coat layer are prevented from migrating into the adjacent mask layer.
  • the mask layer of the present invention also provides an efficient mechanism for transferring additives into the clear coat layer, particularly additives that perform more efficiently when placed primarily in the outer surface region of the clear coat, rather than distributed uniformly throughout the clear coat layer.
  • the present invention provides a flexible, weatherable decorative sheet material that includes a decorative paint film and an extensible mask releasibly adhered to the outer surface of the paint film to form a protective film overlying the paint film, wherein the mask comprises a film-forming polymer composition containing at least one migratory additive.

Thereafter, the mask layer 20 may be removed to reveal the underlying decorative paint film 18. For instance, the extensible mask layer 20 can be maintained as a protective layer and removed only after the vehicle has completed shipment and is ready for delivery to a customer. The extensible mask layer 20 is releasably bonded to the underlying decorative paint film 18 and may be stripped away from the underlying layers in a single piece. In a preferred embodiment, the mask layer 20 is transparent or substantially transparent to permit visual inspection of the part for surface defects without removal of the mask layer.
  • the extensible mask layer 20 maintains high gloss and DOI during injection or compression molding, such as thermoplastic or thermoset compression molding, where the mold is roughened or deglossed. Roughened molds are less expensive than highly polished molds and are also functionally superior to highly polished molds because the rough mold surface enhances air removal from the mold as the mold closes.
  • the extensible mask layer 20 protects the paint film 18 from loss of gloss or other damage caused by the mold without resorting to the use of highly polished molds.
  • the extensible mask layer 20 is about 0.3 mils to about 3.0 mils in thickness.

  • the migratory additives also generally migrate to the exposed outer surface of the mask layer 20.
  • Migratory additives suitable for use with the present invention include, but are not limited to, hardness enhancers, release agents, ultraviolet light stabilizers, antioxidants, dyes, lubricants, surfactants, including SURFYNOL surfactants, catalysts, including para-toluene sulfonic acid (p-TSA), slip additives and mixtures thereof.
  • the migratory additives are generally added in amounts ranging from about 0.01 to about 2.0 weight percent, with all additives accounting for no more than about 5.0 weight percent of the mask layer 20 composition.
  • Hardness enhancers suitable for use with the present invention include cross-linking agents, such as a melamine or polyisocyanate. It is desirable for the clear coat 22 to be resistant to scratching and marring encountered during use of the composite part 12.
  • One method of increasing scratch/mar resistance is by increasing clear coat hardness through polymer cross-linking.
  • the cross-linking agent may be placed in the mask layer 20 to prevent premature cross-linking.

  • the paint film thermoformed with a mask layer having UV additives showed less transmission of UV light than the paint film thermoformed with a mask layer without UV additives, indicating greater retention of UV additives in the paint film.
  • Paint films were prepared according to the present invention.

  • a 195.6 gram wt assembly with a polyamide surface was placed horizontally on the surface of each paint film.
  • a wire was attached to the wt assembly and the assembly was pulled across the surface of each paint film.
  • the other end of the wire was attached to either an Instron or Sintech pull tester and force readings were collected as the assembly traveled across the paint film surface. Lower coefficient of friction (COF) readings indicate better gouge resistance.
  • COF coefficient of friction
  • Table 3 lists the COF data measured using an Instron Pull Tester. All samples were thermoformed. The mask layer referred to in Table 3 contained 1.5% BYK-333 slip additive.
  • Table 4 lists the COF data measured using a Sintech Pull Tester. All samples were thermoformed. The mask layer referred to in Table 4 contained 0.5% BYK-333. Readings were collected both before and after removal of the mask layer. Table 3
  • This example illustrates transfer of a slip additive during a thermoforming operation.
  • a mask layer with slip additive BYK-333 was laminated to the surface of a tan metallic paint film using three temperatures at the lamination nip. The mask was then removed and COF readings were taken both before and after removal of the mask layer. The same construction was then laminated and thermoformed at 340°F at various levels of stretch. COF readings were again recorded after thermoforming. The data collected are listed in Table 5. As indicated by the readings below, the paint film exhibited a progressively lower COF as stretching during thermoforming increased.
