Definitions
- the present invention relates to antifouling coating compositions having included therein metal-containing biocides and certain polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oils, as well as to coating systems comprising a coat having included such metal-containing biocides and silicone oils.
- Biocides and in particular metal-containing biocides like cuprous oxide and pyrithiones are typically used in erodible antifouling coating compositions, in particular those being based on an erodible non-silicone based binder system.
- One significant challenge in designing such coating compositions is the fact that erodible antifouling coats build up a leach layer which allows for free diffusion of the biocide. Due to the free diffusion through the leach layer, a significant amount of the biocide may be liberated too fast from the coating, whereby a higher amount of the biocide is needed in order to maintain a sufficient level of antifouling activity over time.
- JP 2006-052284 discloses the manufacture of an aqueous dispersion of a resin containing a triorganosilyl group.
- the aqueous dispersion may comprise a silicone oil and optionally a biocide.
- the silicone oil may among others be a polyether-modified silicone oil. It is understood as a water-borne mini-emulsion polymerisation (as described in the Japanese patent application), namely an approach where polymerisation is carried out inside emulsified oil droplets (50-500 nm) in a water.
- Such droplets contain the monomers to be polymerised and are stabilised with low HLB oil-in-water surfactants (such as KF-945) that will encapsulate the monomers and stabilise the oil-in-water emulsion.
- HLB oil-in-water surfactants such as KF-945
- Such water-borne polymerisation will define the size of the polymer by the size of the encapsulation.
- the polymer, by the water system in which it is polymerised and formulated will no longer form the homogeneous film which is a characteristic of solvent polymerisation polymers in solvent- borne formulations.
- water-borne mini-emulsion polymers will be heterogeneously distributed as discrete domains surrounded by the surfactant pronounced of their emulsion polymerisation.
- WO 2015/150249 Al discloses an erodible antifouling coating composition comprising an erodible binder system, one or more antifouling agents and at least one silicone oil.
- the applied silicone oils are conventional linear and branched alkyl/aryl polysiloxanes.
- WO 2011/076856 discloses a fouling control coating composition comprising a polysiloxane- based binder system, one or more hydrophilic-modified polysiloxanes, and one or more biocides. It is disclosed that hydrophilic-modified polysiloxane serves to facilitate the dissolution and transport of biocide to the surface of a coating.
- KR 2014/0117922 discloses an antifouling paint composition comprising a metal ester binder, a polyether modified silicone oil and fumed silica.
- the present inventors have now found that by re-designing erodible antifouling coating compositions by including therein polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oils of the nature specified herein, it is possible to retard the otherwise free diffusion of biocide along the leach layer. This provides a more efficient use of metal-containing biocides leading to improved antifouling performance by using the same level of biocide, and/or reduction of the amount of biocide needed for obtaining the same antifouling performance, as this controlled release will increase bioavailability of biocide against fouling species for a prolonged period of time.
- the function of the non-reactive polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oils is to create an interaction with the metal- containing biocide which improves the antifouling performance and/or durability of the antifouling effect.
- the ways to control the leach rate include the molecule size of the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oils, the overall hydrophilicity and the miscibility with the binder. The latter may be expressed by the so-called HLB value (hydrophilic-lipophilic balance). A very small molecule tends to diffuse and leach out of the film without achieving the intended effect, while a too large molecule would modify the film interaction with water and alter the desired leaching of biocides.
- the present invention relates to a solvent-borne antifouling coating composition, cf. claim 1.
- a second aspect of the invention relates to an antifouling coat, cf. claim 11.
- a third aspect of the invention relates to an antifouling coating system, cf. claim 12.
- a fourth aspect of the invention relates to a marine structure, cf. claim 14.
- a fifth aspect of the invention relates to the use of the combination of one or more non- reactive polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oils and one or more metal-containing biocides for improving the antifouling properties of a coating composition comprising an erodible non- silicone based binder system, cf. claim 15. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
- the solvent-borne antifouling coating composition is the solvent-borne antifouling coating composition
- the present invention i. a. provides a solvent-borne antifouling coating composition
- a solvent-borne antifouling coating composition comprising a. an erodible non-silicone based binder system, b. one or more metal-containing biocides, and c. one or more non-reactive polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oils, wherein the one or more non-reactive polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oils are present in a total amount of 0.05-10 % by dry weight based on the coating composition.
- Coating compositions typically consists of a binder phase (which forms the paint film upon drying and thereby corresponds to the continuous phase of the final paint coat) and a pigments phase (corresponding to the discontinuous phase of the final paint coat).
- a binder phase which forms the paint film upon drying and thereby corresponds to the continuous phase of the final paint coat
- a pigments phase corresponding to the discontinuous phase of the final paint coat
- the term "solvent-borne” is understood as coating compositions in which the components of the binder system is dissolved in a non-aqueous solvent, and wherein a coat corresponding to the coating composition is formed upon evaporation of the solvent and, in some instance, further upon curing of the binder components.
- the solvent-borne coating composition comprises a physically drying binder system which differs from a chemically hardening binder system (see below) in that the binder components (i.e. individual molecules) of the binder system in the dry coat are already present in the same form in the wet coating composition. There is no change in the binder composition or the molecular structure or size of the binder
- the solvent-borne coating composition comprises a chemically hardening binder system characterised in that the final binder molecules in the dry/cured paint film are not present in the wet film.
- the relatively smaller binder component molecules e.g. monomer
- the relatively smaller binder component molecules take part in a chemical reaction to form larger molecules, e.g. by chain extension, and possibly involving crosslinking binder components.
- non-silicone based binder system is understood in the sense that the binder system of the antifouling coating composition is essentially free of silicone and polysiloxane parts.
- any organosilicon parts of the coating composition (when disregarding the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil(s) and any ester- linked silyl groups of the binder) preferably constitute less than 5 % by dry weight of the binder system, such as less that 2 % by dry weight, or less than 1 % by dry weight, in particular around 0 % by dry weight.
- any such organosilicon-containing constituents are not part of the backbone of the binder(s), but may represent groups/chains pendant to the binder component backbone.
- the binder system The binder systems applicable in the present invention are erodible non-silicone based binder systems.
- the non-silicone based binder system constitutes 25-80 % by solids volume of the coating composition. In preferred embodiments, the non-silicone based binder system constitutes 20-70 % by solids volume, such as 18-55 % by solids volume of the coating composition.
- the non-silicone based binder system When expressed by dry weight, typically the non-silicone based binder system constitutes 18-75 % by dry weight of the coating composition. In preferred embodiments, the non- silicone based binder system constitutes 16-60 %, such as 15-40 %, by dry weight of the coating composition.
- the binder systems described herein are of the erodible type ("self-polishing"). When used herein, the term “erodible” (occasionally referred to as “self-polishing") is intended to mean that the paint coat (i.e. the dried film of the coating composition) should have a polishing rate of at least 1 pm per 10,000 Nautical miles (18,520 km) determined in accordance with the "Polishing rate test" specified in the Examples section. In preferred embodiments, the polishing rate is in the range of 1-50 pm, in particular in the range of 1-30 pm, per 10,000 Nautical miles (18,520 km).
- the binder phase of the coating composition forms the paint film upon drying and thereby corresponds to the continuous phase of the final (dry) paint coat. It is envisaged that all erodible binder systems conventionally used in "self-polishing" coating compositions may be used as the binder system of the present coating composition. It is also found that with respect to the relative amounts of binder system vs. pigments/fillers/etc. , only minor modifications (optimizations) may be necessary in order to obtain suitable polishing rates with respect to the marine environment to which the paint coat will be exposed.
- binder systems for marine purposes and yacht purposes, are provided in the following.
- non-aqueous dispersion binder systems silylated acrylate binder systems, metal acrylate binder system, hybrids of silylated acrylate and metal acrylate binder systems, polyoxalate binder systems, zwitterion binder systems, hybrids of silylated acrylate, zwitterion binder systems, polyester binder system, (natural) rosin, rosin derivatives, disproportionated rosin, partly polymerised rosin, hydrogenated rosin, gum rosin, disproportionated gum rosin, acrylic resins, polyvinyl methyl ether, and vinyl acetate- vinylchloride-ethylene terpolymers.
- rosin binder systems non-aqueous dispersion binder systems, silylated acrylate binder systems, metal acrylate binder system, hybrids of silylated acrylate and metal acrylate binder systems, polyoxalate binder systems, zwitterion binder systems, hybrids of silylated acrylate, zwitterion binder systems and polyester binder systems, are especially interesting.
- Particularly preferred binder systems are non-silicone based binder system comprising constituents selected from rosin based binder systems, silyl acrylate binder systems, nonaqueous dispersion based binder systems, and metal-acrylate based binder systems.
- Non-aaueous dispersion binder system The terms “non-aqueous dispersion resin”, “NAD” and similar expressions are intended to mean a shell-core structure that includes a resin obtained by stably dispersing a high- polarity, high-molecular weight resin particulate component (the “core component”) into a non-aqueous liquid medium in a low-polarity solvent using a high-molecular weight component (the “shell component”).
- the non-aqueous dispersion resin may be prepared by a method wherein a polymerisable ethylenically unsaturated monomer which is soluble in a hydrocarbon solvent and which is polymerisable to form a polymer (the core component) which is insoluble in the hydrocarbon solvent, is subjected to dispersion polymerisation in accordance with a conventional method in the hydrocarbon solvent in the presence of a shell component (the dispersion stabiliser) made of a polymer which dissolves or swells in the solvent.
- a shell component the dispersion stabiliser
- the non-aqueous dispersion-type resin utilised in this invention can be a resin known per se; or it can be produced like the known resins.
- Such non-aqueous dispersion-type resins and method for their preparation are described in, e.g. , US 3,607,821, US 4, 147,688, US
- shell components such as an acrylic resin or a vinyl resin may be used.
- a copolymer of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having a high polarity is generally applicable.
- the core component of the non-aqueous dispersion-type resin has free acid groups or silyl ester groups that are convertible into the acid group by hydrolysis in sea water or combinations thereof.
- 5-75 % by weight, e.g. 5-60 % by weight or 7-50 % by weight, of the monomers of the core polymer should carry free acid groups or silyl ester groups or combinations thereof.
- silyl ester monomers are silyl esters of acrylic or methacrylic acid.
- a smaller proportion of the free acid groups or silyl ester groups may also be contained in the shell component.
- free acid group is intended to cover the acid group in the acid form. It should be understood that such acid groups temporarily may exist on salt form if a suitable counter ion is present in the composition or in the environment. As an illustrative example, it is envisaged that some free acid groups may be present in the sodium salt form if such groups are exposed to salt water.
- the non-aqueous dispersion-type resin has a resin acid value of usually 15-400 mg KOH/g, preferably 15 to 300 mg KOH/g, such as 18 to 300 mg KOH/g. If the total acid value of the NAD resin is below 15 mg KOH/g, the polishing rate of the paint coat is too low and the antifouling property will often be unsatisfactory. On the other hand, if the total acid value is above 400 mg KOH/g, the polishing rate is too high for that reason a problem of water resistance (durability of the paint coat in seawater) becomes a problem. (When the core component and/or the shell component contain the acid precursor group, the resin acid value is one given after the group is converted into the acid group by hydrolysis).
- the "resin acid value” here referred to is an amount (mg) of KOH consumed to neutralise 1 g of a resin (solids content), expressing a content of an acid group (in case of the acid precursor group, a content of an acid group formed by hydrolysis) of the resin (solids content). It is advisable that the acid group and/or the acid precursor group is contained in the core component such that the content thereof is, as a resin acid value, at least 80 %, preferably at least 90 %, more preferably at least 95 % of the total resin acid value of the non-aqueous dispersion-type resin. This being said, it is normally preferred that the shell component is hydrophobic.
- the dry weight ratio of the core component to the shell component in the NAD resin is not especially limited, but is normally in the range of 90/10 to 10/90, preferably 80/20 to 25/75, such as 60/40 to 25/75.
- Silylated acrylate binder system is not especially limited, but is normally in the range of 90/10 to 10/90, preferably 80/20 to 25/75, such as 60/40 to 25/75.

Further, the rest of the pigments such as cuprous oxide, zinc-ethylenebis(dithiocarbamate) (Zineb) is added, and a temperature activation of any component that may require it (e.g. thixotropic agent) is initiated. The coating compositions are finally let down with the remaining additives and binders, and its rheology adjusted with final addition of remaining organic solvent. Typically, the solid components of the coating composition are mixed and ground.
- the polyoxyalkylene-modified siloxanes oils may alternatively be added in initial or later additive addition step.
- the coating composition may be prepared as a one component paint or by mixing two or more components e.g. two pre-mixtures, one pre-mixture comprising the one or more resins and one pre-mixture comprising the one or more curing agents.
- % dry weight means the percentage of the respective component based on the dry weight of the coat or of the coating composition, as the case may be. For most practical purposes (hence, unless otherwise stated), the “% dry weight” when referring the cured coat is identical to the “% dry weight” of the coating composition.

- Examples 1-9 show the effect of the addition of a polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil at different levels of biocide.
- Examples 1-3, examples 4-6 and examples 7-9 each show that the addition of a polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil provides a better performance to the coating composition than the coating compositions without a polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil.
- Examples 10-16 show the effect of the addition of a small amount (0.5-2.5 wt-%) of a polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil to a binder of rosin and acrylate. Even the small addition of the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil provides a better performance than compositions without the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil.
- Example 14 is 2 wt-% short of biocides, but show the same performance as reference example 13.
- Examples 17-18 show the effect of the addition of a small amount (2.5 wt-%) of a polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil to a binder of rosin and silylated acrylate. Even the small addition of the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil provides a better performance than compositions without the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil.
- Examples 19-20 show the effect of the addition of a small amount (1-2.5 wt-%) of a polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil to a binder of rosin and silylated acrylate. Even the small addition of the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil provides a better performance than compositions without the polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil.
- Examples 22-30 show the effect of the addition of 5 wt-% of a polyoxyalkylene-modified silicone oil to various binder systems: Rosin-based, nanoacrylate based and silyl acrylate based.
