Description
PRIMER COATINGS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001 ] The present disclosure generally relates to primer coating compositions and uses thereof.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Epoxy resins are one of the most important classes of
thermosetting polymers with large use in protective coatings for many coating
industries. However, epoxy resins, when cured, are brittle; and the poor flexibility of epoxy resins limits the application of such epoxy resins in coil primer coatings. Thus, it has been common to use known flexible polyester resins, instead of epoxy resins; and to cure the polyester resins with blocked polyisocyanates to form a cured primer coating. However, primer coatings utilizing a polyester resin exhibit poor anti-corrosion performance as compared to epoxy resin systems.
[0003] Attempts have been made to address the above problems without success. For example, U.S. Patent No. 5,066,757A discloses a one-can heat curable resin composition including: (1 ) a polyester polyol having at least three functional groups; (2) an adduct of an epoxy resin with at least one member selected from the group consisting of an alkanol amine and a monovalent phenol; and (3) a blocked organic polyisocyanate or a blocked prepolymer having terminal NCO groups obtained by reaction of an organic polyisocyanate with an active hydrogen-containing compound. When the above resin composition is used in the production of pre-coated metal, the resulting coating film gives balanced properties, such as chemical resistance, stain resistance, processability and hardness. However, the solid content of the resulting coating is too low (e.g., 50 weight % or less) for some primer coating applications.
Therefore, it would be advantageous to increase the solid content of the curable primer coating composition to higher levels such as 64 weight % or greater. A high solids coating assists in reducing the amount of solvent required in a coating formulation such that the formulation exhibits a viscosity sufficient to allow the formulation to flow and to
process the formulation. Such a composition must be prepared carefully and in a controlled manner to provide a useful viscosity resin for coating applications. In turn, reducing the solvent loading of a formulation provides a coating formulation with a lower volatile organic compound (VOC). VOC emission in the coating industry is limited by environmental regulations; and it is beneficial to provide coating formulations with reduced VOC emissions, and coatings made from such formulations, to lessen the impact on the environment.
[0004] Accordingly, it would be beneficial to the industry to provide a curable primer coating composition that can impart to a cured primer coating, made from such curable composition, a balanced combination of increased properties such as a high mechanical strength, a high temperature performance, high flexibility, and a high anticorrosion performance. At the same time, the primer coating composition can release less volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions into the environment. The present invention addresses the above mentioned problems.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0005] Among the various aspects of the present disclosure is the provision of a class of primer coating compositions based on an epoxy resin
composition, articles which utilize these primer coating compositions, and the methods to prepare and cure these compositions.

The process comprises providing a curable coating composition comprising (a) an epoxy resin composition and (b) blocked polyisocyanate crosslinker compound; and heating the curable coating composition to a temperature from about 100°C to about 300°C to form the cured coating.

substrate, wherein the coating is prepared by applying a coating composition comprising (a) an epoxy resin composition, and (b) blocked polyisocyanate crosslinker compound.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0023] The present disclosure provides epoxy primer coating compositions comprising an epoxy resin composition and a blocked polyisocyanate crosslinker compound. These primer coating compositions, once applied to a metal substrate and cured, provide many beneficial attributes such as high mechanical strength, a high temperature performance, high flexibility, a high anticorrosion performance, and have low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions.
(I) Primer Coating Compositions
[0024] One aspect of the disclosure provides primer coating compositions comprising an epoxy resin composition and a blocked polyisocyanate crosslinker compound. In general, the primer coating composition is a curable primer coating composition.
(a) epoxy resin composition
[0025] In general, the epoxy resin composition comprises a reaction product of an epoxy resin, a compound containing a cardanol moiety, and a reactive agent selected from a carboxylic acid, a phenolic compound, or mixtures thereof.
[0026] Generally, both the compound containing a cardanol moiety and the reactive agent containing reactive groups, such as hydroxyl or carboxylic acid groups react with epoxy groups in the epoxy resin. When the ratio of the epoxy resin to the compound containing a cardanol moiety and the reactive agent are close to stoichiometry, the reaction product generally haw a high molecular weight. If the epoxy resin is in large excess, then the final reaction product generally contains a large portion of residual epoxy resin and epoxy groups. On the contrary, if the compound containing the cardanol moiety and the reactive agent are in excess, most epoxy groups generally are consumed by the reactive hydroxyl and carboxylic acid groups. In addition, if the ranges detailed below are not used in the epoxy resin composition, unacceptable viscosity or unacceptable epoxy equivalent weight (EEW), and a different Td property may result.
[0027] In general, the weight percent of the epoxy resin composition in the primer coating composition may range from 20 weight % to about 40 weight %. In various embodiments, weight percent of the epoxy resin composition may range from about 20 weight % to about 40 weight %, from about 22 weight % to about 38 weight %, from about 26 weight % to about 34 weight %, or from 28 weight % to about 32 weight %. In certain embodiments, the weight percent of the epoxy resin in the primer coating composition may be about 29 weight %.

Then a catalyst, such as ethyl triphenylphosphonium acetate catalyst, was added into the reactor and mixed with the other ingredients in the reactor. The next step was to raise the temperature in the reactor to a reaction temperature sufficient to drive the reaction mixture, for example, to a reaction temperature of from about 140°C to about 170°C. The reaction mixture was heated slowly, (e.g., at a rate of from 10°C/ 2
minutes) to reach the reaction temperature; and then after a period of curing time for example after about 2 hours of reaction time, the reaction was stopped.

Part A: General Procedure for Preparing Coil Primer Coating Formulations
[0107] In these Examples, a first set of coil primer coating formulations were prepared using Desmodur BL 3575 as a crosslinker. Also, the ERCs, component (a), i.e., Synthesis Example 1 (ERC1 ), Synthesis Example 2 (ERC2) and Synthesis Example 3 (ERC3) were used for preparing the coil primer coating formulations of the present invention including Example 1 (F-1 ), Example 2 (F-2) and Example 3 (F-3). In addition to the above ERC resins, a commercial polyester polyol resin (Dynapol LH 818- 05 Polyester) was used to produce coil primer coating formulation as a comparative example, Comparative Example A (F-A). Each of the above resins was formulated into a coil primer with the blocked polyisocyanate crosslinker (Desmodur BL3575). Table III describes each of the primer coating formulations, F-1 to F-3 and F-A prepared above; and the components of such formulations. The properties of the coil primer coating formulations were also measured and are described in Table III.

[0109] As described in Table III, viscosity values of formulations F-1 to F-3 (Examples 1 -3) were compared with the coil primer coating formulation of Comparative Example A (F-A).

Part B: General Procedure for Preparing Coil Primer Coating
[01 10] Coil primer coatings (i.e., films) were prepared from the above primer coating formulations described in Table III above. To prepare the coating film, the coil primer coating formulations were cast onto tin plates (tin plate size 10 cm x 15 cm and 0.05 cm thick) by drawing down a coating film on the tin plates with a drawbar, followed by curing the coating film by baking the coating tin plates at 150 °C for 30 minutes. Then, the properties of the resultant film coatings were measured.
Salt-Spray Testing
[01 1 1 ] An anti-corrosive property exhibited by a coating is a critical property for application of a coil primer coating. Salt-spray testing was employed to measure corrosive resistance of each coil primer coating. Before testing, two perpendicular scribe lines were cut on each coil primer coating film. Then, the coil primer coating panels were kept in a salt-spray box for 7 days. After 7 days, the corrosion damage of each panel was visually inspected. Three pictures were taken of each coil primer coating film as shown in Figures 3-6. Each Figure 3-6 includes three images: (A) the original coating film with scribes before salt-spray testing; (B) the coating film after salt-spray testing; and (C) the coating film scraped along the scribe to measure the creep value (distance) of corrosion.
[01 12] All of the coating films exhibited undesirable red rust on the surface away from the scribes. Corrosion damage, like blister, appeared in the scribe area of each coating. The creep values, the widest length of corrosion along the scribe, were compared and the results are listed in Table IV. Formulations F-1 to F-3 with epoxy had creep values of 5.28, 2.08, and 2.20 mm; while Formulations F-A with polyester had creep values of 6.37 mm and 2.44 mm. The results shown in Table IV suggests primer Formulations F-2 and F-3 with epoxy have a better corrosion resistance than the polyester formulation F-A.
Table IV: Creep Value of Coatings After Salt Spraying
Part A: General Procedure for Preparing Coil Primer Coating Formulations
[01 13] In these Examples, a second set of coil primer coating formulations were prepared using Desmodur BL 3175 as a crosslinker. Also, the ERCs, component (a), i.e., Synthesis Example 1 (ERC1 ), Synthesis Example 2 (ERC2) and Synthesis Example 3 (ERC3) were used for preparing the coil primer coating formulations of the present invention including Example 4 (F-4), Example 5 (F-5) and Example 6 (F-6). In addition to the above ERC resins, a commercial polyester polyol resin (Dynapol LH 818- 05 Polyester) was used to produce coil primer coating formulations as comparative examples, Comparative Example B (F-B) and Comparative Example C (F-C). Also, a commercial epoxy resin, DER 669™, was used to prepare a coil primer coating formulation as another comparative example, Comparative Example D (F-D). Each of the above resins was formulated into a coil primer with the blocked polyisocyanate crosslinker (Desmodur BL 3175). Table V describes each of the primer coating formulations of the present invention, F-4 to F-6 and comparative formulations
F-B to F-D prepared above; and the components of such formulations. The properties of the coil primer coating formulations were also measured and are described in Table V.
[01 14] Comparing the properties of the formulations, the formulations with the ERCs exhibit a lower viscosity and a lower VOC content, while the ERCs achieve a higher solid content. In comparison, the DER 669 formulation (F-D) shows the highest viscosity while having the lowest solid content.
Table V - Primer Coating Formulations and Properties
Part B: General Procedure for Preparing Coil Primer Coating
[01 15] Coil primer coatings were prepared from the above primer coating formulations described in Table V above using the general procedure Part B as described in Example 1 above.
[01 16] The performance of each of the prepared primer coatings was evaluated and the results are described in Table VI. As shown in Table VI, primer coatings prepared from ERCs show good adhesion, impact resistance, and T-Bend flexibility as the coating films with polyester and polyester/DER 669™ epoxy. The primer coatings prepared from ERCs showed a lower hardness value than the other coating films. It is theorized that due to the special chemical structure of the ERCs used for the primer coatings of the present invention provides an improved flexibility to the primer coatings. Formulation of DER 669 (F-D) shows a high hardness, but exhibits a very weak T-Bend flexibility (only 2T). T-Bend flexibility is a very important property for a coating to have for the coating to have the capability of being used in coil coating
applications. Among three primers with an ERC, the primer with ERC1 shows the highest hardness of H.
Salt-Spray Testing
[01 17] An anti-corrosive property exhibited by a coating is a critical property for application of a coil primer coating. Salt-spray testing was employed to measure corrosive resistance of each coil primer coating. Before testing, two perpendicular scribe lines were cut on each coil primer coating film. Then, the coil primer coating panels were kept in a salt-spray box for 7 days. After 7 days, the corrosion damage of each panel was visually inspected. Three pictures were taken of each coil primer coating film as shown in Figures 7-1 1 . Each Figure 7-1 1 includes three images: (A) the original coating film with scribes before salt-spray testing; (B) the coating film after salt-spray testing; and (C) the coating film scraped along the scribe to measure the creep value (distance) of corrosion.
[01 18] All of the coating films exhibited undesirable red rust on the surface away from the scribes. The coating film prepared from Formulation F-B (Comparative Example B) with polyester shows the densest rust marks in comparison to Formulations F-4 to F-6 (Examples 4-5) with epoxy resin. Corrosion damage, like blister, appeared in the scribe area of each coating. The creep values, the widest length of corrosion along the scribe, were compared and the results are listed in Table VII. Formulations F-4 to F-6 with epoxy have creep values of 1 .79, 1 .83, and 1 .00 mm; while Formulations F-B and B-C with polyester is are 6.37 mm and 2.44 mm. The results shown in Table VII suggests primer Formulations F-4, F-5, and F-6 with epoxy have a better corrosion resistance than the polyester formulations F-B and F-C.
