Description

RADIATION CURING COATING COMPOSITION
The present invention refers to a UV-curing coating composition comprising (a) at least one urethane (meth)acrylate, being a reaction product between at least one polycaprolactone polyol comprising alkoxy units and at least one adduct between at least one polyisocyanate and at least one hydroxyalkyl (meth)acrylate, (b) at least one reactive diluent and (c) at least one photoinitiator and optionally (d) at least one matting agent.
Radiation curing coating compositions comprising urethane (meth)acrylates obtained from polycaprolactone and other polyester polyols are well known in the art. Despite of known technology, the art has not yet disclosed rapidly UV-curing coating compositions having good chemical resistance, flexibility and toughness, comprising urethane (meth)acrylates based on polycaprolactone polyols comprising alkoxy, such as ethoxy, propoxy and/or butoxy units. A problem with known in the art compositions is that they tend to produce protective and/or decorative films lacking in flexing properties, especially when comprising matting agent, such as haptic matting agents, implying cracking. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a coating composition yielding protective and/or decorative films, especially haptic films, with improved flexing properties without deteriorating hardness, resistance and other essential properties.
The soft-feel / haptic properties are often presented as a main criteria of high-quality coatings for electronic devices and automotive interior parts, but also often requested in many other applications for consumer goods and furniture. Plastic coatings is one of the main applications, but wood coatings and other applications generate interests as well. Haptic properties should in most cases be combined with high resistance especially towards chemicals (water, hand creams or insect repellents), and furthermore exhibit good to excellent scratch resistance.
The present inventors have, as a result of intensive research, been able to obtain soft films exhibiting good to excellent hardness, flexibility and resistance, by using a polycaprolactone polyol having alkoxy units as intermediate in production of urethane (meth)acrylates.
The coating composition according to the present invention is a UV-curing coating composition comprising (a) 40-70%, such as 50-60% or 40-50%, by weight of at least one urethane (meth)acrylate, (b) 20-50%, such as 30-40% or 40-50%, by weight of at least one reactive diluent having at least one olefinic carbon-carbon double bond, and (c) 0.5-10%, such as 1-10, 2-8% or 3-6%, by weight of at least one photoinitiator.
