Definitions
- the invention relates to a multi-pack, solvent-free adhesive composition thai is obtainable by a Michael reaction of a Michael donor with a Michael acceptor in the presence of a suitable catalyst, its use in the field of filtration technology, specifically in making spiral wound filtration modules, and modules made thereby.
- ultrafiltration is intended herein to encompass micro filtration, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis and gas separation, unless otherwise indicated.
- a spiral wound filtration module include membrane sheets, permeate carriers and feed spacers wound around a permeate collection tube.
- Each membrane sheet has a membrane side and a backing side and is typically folded in half along its width to present two membrane leaves integrally joined along the fold line to form a leaf packet.
- Membrane leaves in each leaf packet are oriented such that the membrane sides of the sheet face each other. If two or more leaf packets are used in a spiral wound filtration module, every two leaf packets are bonded together to form a membrane en v el ope by sealing the leaf si de edges and the axial edges of the leaves distant from the permeate collection tube through an adhesive.
- the construction of the envelopes allows access to the permeate carriers only from a radial direction through the membrane leaves.
- the present invention relates to a multi-pack, solvent-free, ambient temperature curable adhesive composition that has low toxicity (i.e., isocyanate-free) and has appropriate characteristics when cured, making it suitable for use in filtration applications and in particular in making spiral wound filtration modules.
- low toxicity i.e., isocyanate-free

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62/058,468 filed October 1, 2014, which is incorporated herein.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to a multi-pack, solvent-free adhesive composition thai is obtainable by a Michael reaction of a Michael donor with a Michael acceptor in the presence of a suitable catalyst, its use in the field of filtration technology, specifically in making spiral wound filtration modules, and modules made thereby.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The term "ultrafiltration" is intended herein to encompass micro filtration, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis and gas separation, unless otherwise indicated.
A spiral wound filtration module include membrane sheets, permeate carriers and feed spacers wound around a permeate collection tube. Each membrane sheet has a membrane side and a backing side and is typically folded in half along its width to present two membrane leaves integrally joined along the fold line to form a leaf packet. Membrane leaves in each leaf packet are oriented such that the membrane sides of the sheet face each other. If two or more leaf packets are used in a spiral wound filtration module, every two leaf packets are bonded together to form a membrane en v el ope by sealing the leaf si de edges and the axial edges of the leaves distant from the permeate collection tube through an adhesive. The construction of the envelopes allows access to the permeate carriers only from a radial direction through the membrane leaves.
Two-part curable isocyanate-based adhesives have been used to manufacture spiral wound filtration modules.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a multi-pack, solvent-free, ambient temperature curable adhesive composition that has low toxicity (i.e., isocyanate-free) and has appropriate characteristics when cured, making it suitable for use in filtration applications and in particular in making spiral wound filtration modules.
In one aspect, the invention features a method of making a spiral wound filtration module. The module includes a permeate collection tube and one or more membrane leaf packet(s) wound about the collection tube; each membrane leaf packet has a first membrane leaf and a second membrane leaf and each membrane leaf has a membrane side and a backing side. The method includes preparing a mixture of a multi-pack, solvent-free adhesive composition by combining a multi-functional Michael donor, a multi-functional Michael acceptor, and a Michael reaction catalyst; applying the mixture of the adhesive composition onto at least a portion of the backing side of the first membrane leaf; winding the membrane leaf packet(s) around the collection tube; and allowing the adhesive composition to solidify and cure, thereby bonding die backing side of the second membrane leaf to t he backing side of the first membrane leaf.
In some embodiments, the adhesive composition exhibits an initial viscosity from 1,000 centipoise (cP) to 100,000 cP at 25 °C, and a Shore A hardness of no less than 60 after cured for 7 days at 25°C and 50% relative humidity.
In one embodiment, the adhesive composition further includes up to 75% by weight of a filler.
In one embodiment, the catalyst has a conjugate acid that has a pKa of greater than 11.
In another aspect, the invention features a spiral wound filtration module that includes a permeate collection tube, and one or more membrane leaf packet(s). Each membrane leaf packet has a first m embrane leaf and a second membrane leaf, and each of the first and second membrane leaves has a membrane side and a backing side. The one or more membrane leaf packet(s) wind about the collection tube such that the backing si de of the second membrane leaf is bonded to the backing side of the first membrane leaf through an adhesive composition that includes a reaction product of a multi-functional Michael donor, a multi-functional Michael acceptor, and a Michael reaction catalyst.
The multi-pack, solvent-free adhesive composition of the invention exhibits, upon combination of the multi packs, appropriate initial viscosity and gel time to allow the penetration of the adhesive into the membrane sheets once the adhesive is applied to the sheets. The adhesive also exhibits good aqueous chemical resistance to strong acidic and basic solutions, good hydrolytic stability, and excellent flexibility. These characteristics are especially beneficial in the manufacture of spiral wound elements for food and dairy application, e.g., reverse osmosis filters, as well as other applications.
Further objects of the present invention will become clear from the further description hereinafter.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present disclosure relates to a multi-pack, solvent-free curable adhesive composition and its use in making spiral wound filtration modules.
Adhesive Composition
The adhesive composition includes a Michael donor, a Michael acceptor, and a Michael reaction catalyst, and is a multi-pack system. That is, the composition includes two or more parts as herein described. The ingredient(s) in each part is stored in a container (pack) separate from the others until the contents of all the containers are mixed together to form the mixture of the adhesive composition prior to the application. Upon applying and curing, a solid adhesive forms that adheres membrane sheets together. The phrase "muiti-pack" is interchangeable herein with the phrase "multi-part".
The adhesive composition is an isocyanate-free (NCO-free) and solvent-free curable composition based on acetoacetylaied polymers obtainable through a Michael reaction between a Michael donor (e.g., acetoacetylaied compoundfs)) and a Michael acceptor (e.g.,
The adhesi v e composition is a liquid right after all the parts of the composition are mixed at an ambient temperature, e.g., 25°C +/-5°C. Herein, a composition or a component is considered to be a liquid if it is liquid at an ambient temperature, e.g., 25°C+/-5°C.
The adhesive composition is formulated to exhibit an adequate initial viscosity that allows the adhesive to be applied in a continuous bead form during the assembly of spiral wound filtration modules. In some embodiments, the adhesive composition is formulated to exhibit an initial viscosity of no greater than 100,000 centipoise (cP), or from 1,000 cP, or from 2,000 cP, or from 5,000 cP to no greater than 100,000 cP, or no greater than 50,000 cP, or no greater than 30,000 cP, or no greater than 25,000 cP at 25°C. Initial viscosity of the adhesive composition herein refers to the viscosity determined within 1 minute (niin) to 5 min after all die parts of the composition are combined.
The time and complexity associated with fabricating a spiral wound filtration module increases with the number of membrane leaf packets used in the construction of the module, Since all the leaf packets in the module are wound together in the last step of rolling, it is
important that the adhesive applied to a first leaf packet is not cured before the l ast leaf packet is inserted. Whether rolling manually or using automation, it is further desirable that the time for solidifying adhesive lines would be substantially longer than the time minimally required for constructing the module to avoid potential delays in the production line.
The adhesive composition of the invention is formulated to exhibit a gel time that is sufficient to allow the penetration of the adhesive into membrane sheets, and at the same time, adequate to allow the adhesive to cure at a rate that is applicable to the application (i.e., to allow subsequent processing steps to start faster without having to wait for long for the adhesive to be cured). In some embodiments, the adhesive exhibits a gel time of from 30 minutes, or from 35 minutes, or from 40 minutes to 60 minutes, or to 50 minutes from the combination of all the parts of the composition.
The adhesive composition is also formulated to exhibit high hardness. In some embodiments, the adhesive composition exhibits a Shore A hardness of no less than 60, or no less than 75, or no less than 80 after cured for 7 days at 25°C and 50% relative humidity.
The adhesive composition is also formulated to exhibit resistance to chemicals such as cleaning/sanitizing reagents e.g., caustic, bleach, acidic or peroxide reagents during harsh chemical cleaning cycles. In some embodiments, the adhesive composition exhibits less than 5% weight change after soaking in an acidic or a caustic solution for 28 days according to the herein described Chemical Resistance Test Method.
In addition, the adhesive composition has other advantages. For example, the adhesive composition is solvent-free, therefore, it does not include any volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The adhesive composition also exhibits, upon cure, non-foaming behavior in the presence oi moisture.
The adhesive composition has a workable viscosity and pot life and also cures quickly to develop a high hardness within 24 hours after the multi parts are combined. Finally, the adhesive composition provides a strong adhesive bond that is resistant to humidity and chemicals.
In the adhesive compositions of the present invention, the relative proportion of multifunctional Michael acceptor(s) to multi-functional Michael donor(s) can be characterized by the reactive equivalent ratio, which is the ratio of the number of all the functional groups (e.g., in Structure I and/or Structure ( I ) in the curable mixture to the number of Michael active hydrogen
atoms in the mixture. The Michael donor component and the Michael acceptor component are blended together immediately prior to the application such that the equivalent ratio of the Michael acceptor functional acrylate groups to the Michael donor active hydrogens is from 0.3, or from 0,5 to 1 .5, or to 1.

Each leaf packet include two gen erally rectangul ar membrane sheets surrounding a permeate carrier sheet. This "sandwich" structure is held together by a bonding adhesive along three edges of each membrane sheet: the back edge furthest from the permeate tube, and the two side edges that will become the feed (inlet) and concentrate (outlet) ends of the module. The bonding adhesive at the two side edges additionally affix and seal membrane sheets to the permeate collection tube at each end of the module. The fourth edge (i.e., the fold edge) of the membrane sheets is open and abuts the permeate collection tube so that the permeate carrier sheet is in fluid contact with small holes on the permeate collection tube and the fluid is passing through the permeate collection tube.

Acceptable membrane materials and backing materials are also well known in the art.
Turning to Fig. 2, a membrane leaf packet 20 is formed from membrane sheet 10 by dividing and folding membrane sheet 10 along the fold line 13 to present a first membrane leaf 10-X and a second membrane leaf 10-Y such that the first and the second leaves have
substantially the same size. Herein, the term "membrane sheet" refers to the combination of leaves 10-X and 10-Y in a leaf packet. The line dividing the first leaf 10-X from the second leaf 10-Y refers to as "fold line", the areas of the first and second leaves 10-X and 10-Y adjacent the fold line refer to as "fold area", and the edge 8 along the fold line 13 of the first and the second leaves (10-X, 10-Y) refers to as "fold edge". The first and second membrane leaves 10-X and 10-Y of membrane sheet 10 are positioned relative to each other such that the membrane side 12- X (not shown) of the first leaf 10-X and the membrane side 12-Y of the second leaf 10-Y face one another. In this preferred embodiment, feed spacer 17 is positioned between the leaves 10-X and 10-Y within the leaf packet 20. Feed spacer 17 generally has a relatively large mesh size to allow the fluid to be filtered to travel between membrane sides 12-X and 12-Y of leaves 10-X and 10-Y of membrane sheet 10. Although feed spacer 17 is utilized in most spiral wound filtration modules, it is possible and known in the art to construct a module without feed spacer 17. The materials and construction of feed spacer 17 are wel l kno wn in the art.
Fig, 3 illustrates an embodiment of a partially assembled filtration module 40 including a collection tube 43 and a leaf packet 20 as shown in Fig, 2. An adhesive composition 45 e.g., any of the aforementioned multi-pack, solvent-free curable adhesive composition is applied in a continuous bead form on the backing side 14-X along the three edges of the first membrane leaf 10-X. Adhesive 45 may be dispensed at ambient temperature e.g., 25°C using dispensing method known in the art, The technique of applying a multi-pack, sol vent- free curable adhesive composition to spiral wound membrane leaves is well know and understood in the art. For
example, the adhesive can be mixed via a mix tube and dispensed using a mix equipment known in the art to a preferred bead size of from about 1/8 to about 3/4 inch , more preferably from about 1/8 to about 1/4 inch, The adhesive 45 is flexible, has a hardness within the Shore A range after curing, and is resistant to chemicals, including chemicals selected from the group consisting of chlorine, acidic cleaning solutions and caustic cleaning solutions. Further, the adhesive has good initial and long-term adhesion to membrane sheet 10 and a short cure time.
Upon winding ( or rolling), the leaf packet 20 concentrically about the collection tube 43, the backing side 14-Y (not shown) of the second membrane leaf 10-Y is bonded to the backing side 14-X of the first membrane leaf 10-X with the adhesive 45 along the three edges.
Fig, 4 illustrates a partially assembled filtration module 80 including a collection tube 43 and two leaf packets partially assembled from a first leaf packet 20 (as shown in Fig. 3) and a second leaf packet 20', which has the same structure as the first leaf packet 20. The first leaf packet 20 includes a first leaf 10-X and a second leaf 10-Y (as shown in Fig. 3). The second leaf packet 20' includes a first leaf 10'-X and a second leaf 10'-Y. The second leaf packet (20') is placed on top of the first leaf packet (20) such that the backing side (not shown) of the second leaf (IO'-Υ) of the second leaf packet (20') faces the backing side (14-X) of the first leaf 10-X of the first packet (20). All the edges of the first and second membrane leaf packets (20, 20') are aligned such that the fold edge 8 of the first leaf packet 20 is aligned and parallel with the fold edge 8' of the second leaf packet 20', The facing membrane leave (10-X, lO'-Y) are adhered together with adhesive 45 along three peripherally edges, leaving fold edges (8, 8') of the leaf packets (20, 20') unadhered. The fold edges (8, 8') are in fluid contact with the permeate collection tube 43 via openings 47.
An adhesive composition 45 e.g., any of the aforementioned multi-pack, solvent-free curable adhesive composition is applied in a continuous bead form on the backing side 14-X (as shown in Fig. 3) as well as on the backing side 14'-X along three edges of the first membrane leaf IO'-Χ of the second leaf packet 20'. Upon winding the two leaf packets around the collection tube 43, the backing side 14-Y (not shown) of the second membrane leaf 10-Y (as shown in Fig. 3) of the first membrane leaf packet 20 is bonded to the backing side 14'-X of the first membrane leaf IO'-Χ of the second leaf packet 20' with the adhesive 45 along the three edges to form a finished filtration module.
Alternatively, the process herein described may be repeated a number of times so that it is possible to make a multi-layered leaf packets tha consist of more than two bonded l eaf packets. For example, a third leaf packet could be bonded to the second leaf packet 20' by repeating the aforementioned process, so tha a plurality of leaf packets are assembled together prior to the winding step to form the module.
The adhesive 45 allows relative movement of various membrane sheets during the winding process. That is, the cure rate or period of gel time is longer than that required to assemble and wind one or more membrane leaf packet(s) about the permeate collection tube to produce a filtration module.

EXAMPLES
Test Methods
Viscosity
The viscosity is determined using a Brookfield DV-II+ Pro viscometer (from Brookfield Engineering, USA) using Spindle # 27 at 2 rpm (revolutions per minute) and 12 grams of a sample material at 25°C + 5°C, or 30°C + 5°C, and 50% relative humidity.
Glass Transition Temperature (Tg)
The glass transition temperature (Tg) of a cured composition is determined according to ASTM D-341 8-83 entitled "Standard Test Method for Transition Temperatures of Polymers by Differential Scanning Caiorinietry (DSC)" with conditioning a sample at 140°C for two minutes, quench cooling the sample to -60°C and then hea ting the sample to 140°C at a rate of 20°C per minute. The repotted Tg is the temperature at which onset of the phase change occurs. Shore A Hardness
Shore A hardness of a cured composition is determined using a hand held hardness meter from Paul N. Gardner Company, Inc. USA, and Shore A scale at 25°C + 5°C and 50% relative humidity. The cured composition is cured for 7 days at 25°C + 5°C and 50% relative humidity. Gel Time
The gel time of a multi-pack, solvent- free adhesive composition is determined using a Gardco Standard Gel Timer (from Paul N. Gardner Company, Inc., USA) at 25°C + 5°C and 50% relative humidity. A 1 10 gram mixture of Pari A (Michael donor and Michael reaction catalyst) and Part B (Michael acceptor) is mixed and deposited in a aluminum dish in the timer unit, a wire stirrer is inserted, the display is set to zero and the timer is turned on. The gel timer stirs until gel occurs (the viscosity of the mixture increases to a point where the drag exceeds the torque of the motor and the motor stops), stopping the timer and stirrer. The time on the timer is recorded as the gel time in minutes.
Chemical Resistance Test Method
Chemical resistance is determined as follows:
Test specimens are prepared by making 10 gram pucks of a multi-pack, solvent-free adhesive composition. The pucks of the composition are cured at 25 °C + 5°C and 50% relative humidity for 7 days. The cured specimens are weighed and the initial weight is recorded. The cured specimens are soaked in either acidic or basic conditions for a duration of 28 days. For acidic conditions three cured puck specimens are soaked in a pH 1 solution (0.1M HQ) at 25°C + 5°C and 50% relative humidity for 28 days. For basic conditions the three cured puck specimens are soaked in a pH 12 solution (NaOHaq) at 40°C + 5°C and 50% relative humidity, After 7, 14, 21, and 28 days the pucks are removed from the test solution, rinsed off with deionized water at ambient temperature, dried for one hour, weight recorded, and re-soaked in the appropriate fresh solution. Chemical resistance is reported as the percent % weight change (weight loss or weight gain) of the cured puck specimens.
Bubble Formation Test Method
The formation of bubbles of a multi-pack, solvent-free adhesi ve composition is determined by mixing a lOOg mixture of part A (donor and catalyst) and part B (acceptor) and allowing the mixture to cure at 25°C + 5°C and 50% relative humidity for 7 days, After cure the composition is visually inspected for the formation of bubbles. The absence of bubbles within the cured composition is a pass. The appearance of bubbles within the c ured composition constitutes a fail.
Michael Donor
The following Michael donors were used for making the adhesive composition to be tested in the Examples:
Donor 1 (D-l) (Acetoacetoxy trimethylolpropane (AATMP)
Donor 1 was prepared by adding trimethylolpropane and tert-butyl acetoacetate (TBAA) to a reaction kettle equipped with a stirrer and a. distillation column connected to a vacuum line. Amounts of the polyol and TBAA were used to provide a desired conversion degree of the
polyol with 100 mol% conversion using TBAA m a molar excess of 1/3. The reaction was carried out at 120°C for 2 hours and tert-hutanol by-product was collected by distillation. The reaction was continued at this temperature until no more tert-butanol was collected. The reaction was cooled to ambient temperature, vacuum was applied and the reaction was heated to 120°C over 1 hour to collect any residual teri-buxanol and tert-hutyiacetoacetate. The reaction was heated at 125°C tor 3-4 hours or until no further tert-butanol or ten-buiyiacetoacetate was collected. The acetoacetyiated polyol was cooled and stored for use.
Donor 2 (D-2) (a mixture of 75% by weight of D-l and 25% by weight of di-acetoacetate of VORANOL 220-056N)
Donor 2 was prepared by mixing 75% by weight of D-l and 25% by weight of di- acetoacetate of VORANOL 220-056N. Di-acetoacetate of VORANOL 220-056N was prepared according to the procedure as that in D-l, except that VORANOL 220-056N (polyether polyol, commercially available from Dow Chemical) was used instead of trimethyloipropane. Donor 3 (D-3)
Donor 3 (D-3) was prepared according to the procedure as that in D-l, except that KEFLEX® UD-320-100 (a po3.yureth.ane diol commercially available from King Industries
(Norwalk, CT)) was used instead of trimethyloipropane. Michael Acceptor
