Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an adhesive composition; and more specifically, the present invention relates to a two-component polyurethane adhesive composition.
  • 2K polyurethane adhesive compositions are based on the reaction mixture of a polyol component and a polyisocyanate component; and have long been used as adhesives.
  • the polyisocyanates and polyols react to form a cured polyurethane adhesive; and the reaction can form a strong adhesive bond to many types of substrates.
  • the package for packaging a lithium-ion battery typically has a foil-based lamination structure and the foil-based lamination structure can be, for instance, a nylon, foil and retort cast polypropylene (RCPP) combination (nylon/foil/RCPP) ; and the foil-based lamination structure is usually manufactured by a deep draw molding method of nylon/foil/RCPP lamination film.
  • the known lamination adhesive compositions used for such LIB applications cannot pass the deep draw and high temperature bond strength test (e.g., achieving a bonding strength of greater than (>) 2 Newtons per 15 millimeters [N/15 mm] at 120°C between nylon and foil) . Therefore, it is desired to provide a 2K solvent-based lamination adhesive composition which has good bond strength, moldability, and heat resistance; and can be used for manufacturing a foil-based structure lamination article such as a laminated film package for a LIB.
  • the present invention is directed to a novel solvent-based lamination adhesive composition.
  • the adhesive of the present invention is a two-component solvent-based lamination adhesive composition (i.e., a two-part system) including: (1) the first part being an isocyanate-terminated compound part (NCO-component) , and (2) the second part being a hydroxyl-terminated polyol (OH-component) .
  • the novel adhesive composition of the present invention is based on a novel polyol mixture (i.e., the second part of the 2K adhesive composition) of (1) a polyester polyol and (2) a phosphate ester polyol.
  • the phosphate ester polyol component is provided as an adhesion promoter in the 2K adhesive composition of the present invention.
  • the present invention is directed to a polyurethane lamination adhesive composition, such as a 2K polyurethane adhesive, including (A) at least one isocyanate group-containing component including at least one isocyanate group-containing compound; and (B) at least one polyol component including: (Bi) at least one polyester polyol compound having a high molecular weight (e.g., >8,000 grams per mole [g/mol] ) ; and (Bii) at least one phosphate ester polyol compound.
  • component (A) , component (B) or both components (A) and (B) can optionally include at least one solvent compound.
  • the present invention includes a process for making the above polyurethane lamination adhesive composition.
  • the 2K solvent-based lamination adhesive composition of the present invention advantageously provides an increase in the properties, such as bond strength, heat resistance and moldability, for foil-based lamination structures (e.g., nylon/foil/RCPP) useful for manufacturing various articles.
  • foil-based lamination structures e.g., nylon/foil/RCPP
  • the 2K adhesive of the present invention can be used in a variety of applications; the present invention adhesive can be particularly useful in LIB applications.
  • the adhesive composition of the present invention can be designed for deep draw applications which require the use of a high number molecular weight (M n ) polyester polyol, for example, a polyester polyol having a M n of>8,000 g/mol.
  • M n number molecular weight
  • the amount of phosphate ester used in the adhesive composition of the present invention is used in a proper predetermined amount such that poor performance of the composition is avoided.
  • the adhesive composition of the present invention including, for example: (1) there is no need to apply a metal compound in a final lamination adhesive; (2) there is no need to apply an acrylic polyol in a final adhesive composition; (3) there is no limitation on the content of an aliphatic carboxylic acid and/or an aromatic carboxylic acid used in the polyester polyol; (4) there is no need to use an epoxy-terminated polyester; and (5) there is no limitation on the content of an aliphatic isocyanate and/or an aromatic isocyanate used in the isocyanate-terminated compound.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic illustration showing a typical five-layered structure of a LIB packaging laminated film, generally indicated by numeral 10, which includes, from the outer side thereof, an outer layer side resin film layer (11) , an outer layer side adhesive layer (14) , a metal foil layer (12) , an inner layer side adhesive layer (15) , and an inner surface layer (13) composed of a heat seal layer or the like.
  • the present invention includes a two-component (2K) adhesive composition; and more specifically, the present invention includes a 2K PU adhesive, including (A) at least one isocyanate group-containing component; and (B) at least one polyol component (or a hydroxyl group-containing component) .
  • 2K PU adhesive including (A) at least one isocyanate group-containing component; and (B) at least one polyol component (or a hydroxyl group-containing component) .
  • the ratio of (B) : (A) viz, the OH/NCO dry weight index can be from 1 to 20 in one embodiment; from 2 to 15 in another embodiment; and from 5 to 12 in still another embodiment.
  • the isocyanate group-containing component, component (A) can be a mixture or blend of one or more compounds including, for example, at least one isocyanate group-containing compound such as one or more polyisocyanate compounds.

Heretofore, various two-component (2K) type polyurethane adhesive compositions have been produced for use in various applications. As is known in the art, 2K polyurethane compositions are based on the reaction mixture of a polyol component and a polyisocyanate component; and have long been used as adhesives. When the two components are mixed, the polyisocyanates and polyols react to form a cured polyurethane adhesive; and the reaction can form a strong adhesive bond to many types of substrates.
For example, the following references disclose a 2K adhesive having good adhesion: U.S. Patent No. 8,716,427B2; CN104228210 (A) ; CN107614648A; US20140242333 (A1) ; US20150380695 (A1) ; US20160204395 (A1) ; and WO 2015/168670.
While there have been some advances in the art regarding 2K polyurethane compositions for use in a variety of applications, there is still room for developments in the art of adhesives, in particular lamination adhesives exhibiting enhanced properties of, for example, bond strength, moldability, and heat resistance such that the adhesive composition can appropriately be used for producing laminated composite film structures such as a foil-based composite structure lamination article.
For example, the package for packaging a lithium-ion battery (LIB) typically has a foil-based lamination structure and the foil-based lamination structure can be, for instance, a nylon, foil and retort cast polypropylene (RCPP) combination (nylon/foil/RCPP) ; and the foil-based lamination structure is usually manufactured by a deep draw molding method of nylon/foil/RCPP lamination film. Heretofore, the known lamination adhesive compositions used for such LIB applications cannot pass the deep draw and high temperature bond strength test (e.g., achieving a bonding strength of greater than (>) 2 Newtons per 15 millimeters [N/15 mm] at 120℃ between nylon and foil) . Therefore, it is desired to provide a 2K solvent-based lamination adhesive composition which has good bond strength, moldability, and heat resistance; and can be used for manufacturing a foil-based structure lamination article such as a laminated film package for a LIB.
SUMMARY
In general, the present invention is directed to a novel solvent-based lamination adhesive composition. In one embodiment, the adhesive of the present invention is a two-component solvent-based lamination adhesive composition (i.e., a two-part system) including: (1) the first part being an isocyanate-terminated compound part (NCO-component) , and (2) the second part being a hydroxyl-terminated polyol (OH-component) . The novel adhesive composition of the present invention is based on a novel polyol mixture (i.e., the second part of the 2K adhesive composition) of (1) a polyester polyol and (2) a phosphate  ester polyol. The phosphate ester polyol component is provided as an adhesion promoter in the 2K adhesive composition of the present invention.
In one preferred embodiment, the present invention is directed to a polyurethane lamination adhesive composition, such as a 2K polyurethane adhesive, including (A) at least one isocyanate group-containing component including at least one isocyanate group-containing compound; and (B) at least one polyol component including: (Bi) at least one polyester polyol compound having a high molecular weight (e.g., >8,000 grams per mole [g/mol] ) ; and (Bii) at least one phosphate ester polyol compound. In the above embodiment, component (A) , component (B) or both components (A) and (B) can optionally include at least one solvent compound.
In another embodiment, the present invention includes a process for making the above polyurethane lamination adhesive composition.
The 2K solvent-based lamination adhesive composition of the present invention advantageously provides an increase in the properties, such as bond strength, heat resistance and moldability, for foil-based lamination structures (e.g., nylon/foil/RCPP) useful for manufacturing various articles. For example, while the 2K adhesive of the present invention can be used in a variety of applications; the present invention adhesive can be particularly useful in LIB applications.
In addition, the adhesive composition of the present invention can be designed for deep draw applications which require the use of a high number molecular weight (M n) polyester polyol, for example, a polyester polyol having a M n of>8,000 g/mol.
Furthermore, it is generally known in the art that when the content of a phosphate ester in an adhesive composition is too high, a poor performance of the composition is observed in deep draw applications. However, the amount of phosphate ester used in the adhesive composition of the present invention is used in a proper predetermined amount such that poor performance of the composition is avoided.
There are other benefits/advantages of using the adhesive composition of the present invention including, for example: (1) there is no need to apply a metal compound in a final lamination adhesive; (2) there is no need to apply an acrylic polyol in a final adhesive composition; (3) there is no limitation on the content of an aliphatic carboxylic acid and/or an aromatic carboxylic acid used in the polyester polyol; (4) there is no need to use an epoxy-terminated polyester; and (5) there is no limitation on the content of an aliphatic isocyanate and/or an aromatic isocyanate used in the isocyanate-terminated compound.

In one broad embodiment, the process for making the adhesive formulation of the present invention includes mixing, admixing or blending: (A) at least one isocyanate group-containing component including at least one isocyanate group-containing compound; and any of the above optional compounds desired such as a solvent compound; and (B) at least one polyol component including: (Bi) at least one polyester polyol compound; (Bii) at least one phosphate ester polyol compound; and any of the above optional compounds desired such as a solvent compound. One or more additional optional components may be added to the adhesive formulation as desired. For example, the components (A) and (B) can be mixed together in the desired concentrations discussed above and at a temperature of from 20℃ to 25℃ in one embodiment; and from 15℃ to 35℃ in another embodiment. The order of mixing of the components is not critical and two or more components can be mixed together followed by addition of the remaining components. The adhesive formulation components may be mixed together by any known mixing process and equipment.
In general, the two components (A) and (B) can be prepared separately from one another; and the components can each be stored in a separate container. The other components and optional additives of the polyurethane adhesive formulation may be present as part of the first component (A) or the second component (B) . A suitable container for the storage of each component can be, for example, a drum, ahobbock, a bag, a bucket, a can, a cartridge or a tube. Prior to the application of the adhesive composition, the two components (A) and (B) are stored separately and mixed with one another only during or prior to the application.
The adhesive formulation of the present invention produced by the process of the present invention has several advantageous properties and benefits compared to conventional adhesive formulations. For example, some of the properties exhibited by the adhesive formulation can include increased bond strength, moldability, and heat resistance; properties that are beneficial in a process for manufacturing a foil-based structure lamination article such as a laminated film for producing a package for a LIB.
For example, the bond strength at 120℃ between nylon layer and aluminum foil layer exhibited by the adhesive formulation can be generally 1 N/15 mm or greater since the higher the bond strength, the  better is the bonding performance of the adhesive formulation. For example, the bond strength of the adhesive can be ≥ 1 N/15 mm in one embodiment, ≥ 1.5 N/15 mm in another embodiment, and ≥ 2.5 N/15 mm in another embodiment. Other preferred embodiments of the adhesive bond strength can include the range of from 1 N/15 mm to 8 N/15 mm in one embodiment, from 2.5 N/15 mm to 8 N/15 mm in another embodiment; from 1.5 N/15 mm to 5.5 N/15 mm in still another embodiment; and from 1 N/15 mm to 5 N/15 mm in yet another embodiment. The bond strength of the adhesive can be measured by the general procedure described in the Test Methods of the Examples herein below.
In another embodiment, moldability is a beneficial property exhibited by the adhesive of the present invention. The moldability of the adhesive can be measured by the depth of the deep draw setting of such a deep draw process. And, the moldability of the adhesive can be generally 1 millimeter (mm) or greater since the higher the depth of deep draw, the better is the moldability performance of the adhesive formulation. For example, the moldability of the adhesive can be ≥ 1 mm in one embodiment, ≥ 3 mm in another embodiment, and ≥ 4 mm in another embodiment. Other preferred embodiments of the adhesive moldability can include the range of the depth of deep draw setting of from 1 mm to 15 mm, from 3 mm to 8 mm in another embodiment, and from 4 mm to 6 mm in still another embodiment. The moldability of the adhesive can be measured by the general procedure described in the Test Methods of the Examples herein below.
In still another embodiment, the heat resistance of the adhesive formulation of the present invention is another beneficial property of the formulation. The heat resistance of an adhesive can be determined by laminated structure made by the adhesive passing or failing an aging test selected from a conventional aging test known in the art. Typically, a laminated structure is subjected to an aging test that is carried out for a particular number of hours; and then the laminated structure made by the adhesive can be visually observed to pass or fail the test by any sign of delamination, tunneling or any type of structure failure. Generally, the aging test can be carried out, for example, for a desired period of time as can be measured by the procedure described in the Test Methods of the Examples herein below. In general, the adhesive composition should pass an aging time of>60 hours (hr) at 85℃ and 85%humidity.
Generally, the bonding of two substrates using the adhesive of the present invention can be carried out in an industrial scale for production of large quantities of lamination products. Advantageously, the two components (A) and (B) are filled and stored separately in drums or hobbocks until the components are ready to be used. As aforementioned, prior to the application of the adhesive composition, the two components are stored separately; and only during or prior to the application of the adhesive are the two components mixed with one another. During application, the components are forced out of the storage containers by means of feed pumps, and metered in via lines of a mixing apparatus, such as those commonly used for 2K adhesives in industrial production.
The mixing of the two components (A) and (B) can be done via static mixers or by means of dynamic mixers. When mixing components (A) and (B) , care should be taken to ensure that the two components are homogeneously mixed insofar as possible. If the two components are poorly mixed, there  will be local deviations from the advantageous mixing ratio, which may have implications with respect to a deterioration of the mechanical properties of the resulting product made using the adhesive.
The application of the adhesive to the surface of at least one substrate can be carried out by conventional means such as by using a roll coater, a doctor blade, or extrusion equipment and process. The adhesive composition can be applied at a level, in grams of dry composition per square meter, of 1 or greater in one embodiment and 2 or greater in another embodiment. The adhesive composition can be applied at a level, in grams of dry composition per square meter, of 10 or less in one embodiment and 7 or less in another embodiment.
Another embodiment of the present invention is directed to a process for bonding at least a first substrate to at least a second substrate including the steps of: (a) mixing the two components (A) and (B) as described above to form the polyurethane adhesive, (b) applying the polyurethane adhesive of step (a) to at least one of the substrate surfaces to be bonded and evaporating the solvent if any, (c) contacting (or joining) together the first and second substrates to be bonded with the polyurethane adhesive, and (d) curing the polyurethane adhesive. For example, the adhesive can be heated to fully cure the adhesive; and the heating of the adhesive can be carried out at a temperature of from 25℃ to 80℃ in one general embodiment.
In the above process, upon contact of the first component (A) having isocyanate groups (the NCO-component) with the second component (B) having hydroxyl groups (the OH-component) to form the polyurethane adhesive, curing begins by chemical reaction. In general, the hydroxyl groups present in component (B) react with the isocyanate groups present in component (A) . As a result of the above reaction, the polyurethane adhesive cures to form a solid material, and in turn, bonding the two substrates together. This curing process is also referred to as crosslinking.
The two substrates may consist of the same or different materials. Suitable substrates that can be used in the above process can include, for example, woven and nonwoven fabric, metal foil, polymers, and metal-coated polymers. Films optionally have a surface on which an image is printed with ink; and the ink may be in contact with the adhesive composition. In some embodiments, the films are polymer films and metal foil. In a preferred embodiment, a combination of nylon film and aluminum foil can be used as the two substrates to be bonded together.
The 2K polyurethane adhesive of the present invention can be used, for example, in the following applications: LIB applications for manufacturing the packaging for the LIB; and various other packaging applications such as food packaging applications like cans or containers, pouches, packaging trays and the like.
In one preferred embodiment, a LIB packaging film material can be manufactured according to the present invention. For example, with reference to FIG. 1, there is shown a laminated film structure generally indicated by numeral 10 including three substrate film layers 11, 12, and 13 bonded together by a first outer layer side adhesive 14 and a second inner layer side adhesive 15. In a first step, an outer layer side resin film layer 11 and a metal foil layer 12 may be laminated on each other by using the outer layer side polyurethane adhesive 14 according to the present invention to form a first intermediate laminate. Next,  in a second step, an inner surface layer 13 may be laminated on the metal foil layer 12 surface of the intermediate laminate by using an inner layer side adhesive 15.
Alternatively, in a first step, the metal foil layer 12 and the inner surface layer 13 may be laminated on each other by using an inner layer side adhesive 15 to form a first intermediate laminate. Next, in a second step, the metal foil layer 12 of the intermediate laminate and an outer layer side resin film layer 11 may be laminated on each other by using a polyurethane adhesive 14 according to the present invention.

Notes for Table II: The aluminum foil layer and the RCPP layer were laminated first with “Adhesive B” –referred as prelaminated Al/RCPP, before laboratory evaluation. All the Inventive Examples (Inv. Ex. ) and the Comparative Examples (Comp. Ex. ) were applied between the nylon and aluminum foil surfaces as the outer lamination layer “adhesive A” .
General Procedure for Synthesizing a Phosphate Ester Polyol
The phosphate ester polyol used in the Inventive Examples and the Comparative Examples is synthesized according to the formulation listed in Table III. The raw material compounds, PA115 and Bester 648, are charged into a 1,000 milliliter (mL) glass reactor and mixed carefully to form a formulation. After all the above raw materials are fed, the heating of the formulation is started. When the formulation reaches around 60℃, increase the rotation speed to 50 revolutions per minute (RPM) ; and control the temperature increasing speed, and monitor the reaction during the whole process. During the temperature increase process, PA115 separates from Bester 648; and PA115 concentrates at the bottom of the formulation. Meanwhile, the color ofPA115 also becomes dark. When the reaction temperature reaches up to around 100-103℃, the reaction product becomes transparent and homogeneous. The reaction product is kept at around 100-103℃ for 2 hr. When the hydroxyl value of the formulation reaches theoretical value, the reactor is cooled as soon as possible. The reactor is cooled down to 60℃-70℃. Then, the final product is charged into a well-sealed steel bottle with a nitrogen atmosphere to protect the formulation from contamination.

General Procedure for the Coating and Laminating Process
The coating and lamination process used in the examples is conducted in a Labo-Combi 400 lamination machine available from Nordmeccanica group. The adhesive is applied on nylon film and then the nylon film/adhesive is laminated to the aluminum foil surface of a pre-laminated Al foil/RCPP. The temperature of the nip roll of the lamination machine is kept at 70℃, and the coating speed is 100 meters per minute (m/min) during the lamination process. The dry coating weight is controlled at 4-4.5 grams per square meter (g/m 2) . Then, the resulting laminated film is cured (e.g., at a temperature of60℃) in an oven before testing.
TEST METHODS
T-Peel (90°) Bonding Strength (Hand Assisted T-Peel) at 120℃ Between Nylon and Foil Layers
After curing, laminated films are cut into 15 mm width test strip samples for T-peel testing in an Instron 5965 U 5974 machine with a crosshead speed of 250 millimeters per minute (mm/min) . Three test strips are then tested in a warm oven at 120℃ and an average value of the three strips tested is recorded. During the testing, the tail of the strip is pulled slightly by finger to ensure the tail of the strip remains at 90° degrees toward the peeling direction. The results of the bonding strength test are measured in units of N/15 mm. To pass this bonding strength test, the bond strength of the laminated films should be >2 N/15 mm.
Aging Resistant Test
Laminates (laminated films) are cut into 4 cm x 4 cm size square test samples; and then the samples are subjected to an aging resistant test. The samples are aged in a constant temperature humidity chamber, LHU-213, under 85℃ and 85%relative air humidity for 60 hr. During the aging resistant test, six pieces of one laminated film are chosen for evaluation. Every piece of the laminate is fully contacted with ambient air. After the aging resistant test, the appearance of the final laminated film is evaluated. To pass the aging resistant test, no bubbles in the film should be observed; and no delamination of the laminated film should be detected.
Deep Draw Test (DDT)
Cured laminated films are cut into 8 cm x 12 cm size rectangle test samples; and then the samples are positioned at the platform of an auto deep draw equipment, SDCK-004A, for evaluation. The equipment is operated with a specific parameter for deep draw application which would adjust the air pressure to 0.5 megapascals (MPa) and would maintain a punch speed of molds at 100 mm/min. The depth of deep draw molding is set at 5 mm for all laminates tested. Upon deep draw molding, the nylon side of the laminates’surface as the out layer forms a convex surface. Different adhesives are used in the laminates. The appearance of the laminates after the deep draw molding is visually checked for any bubbles, tunnels, and/or delaminations. Also, the laminates are checked for any sign of broken substrates. Meanwhile, the laminates after punch are also heated to 100℃ in a warm oven for 1 hour, and then the appearance of the laminates are checked again visually for defects as described above.
Generally, a laminate packaging film for a LIB, that has a failure in terms of a broken foil of the laminate after the deep draw test does not pass the quality test to be adequate for consumer use; and a laminate packaging film for a LIB, that has a failure in terms of delamination of a nylon/foil laminated composite film of the laminate after the deep draw test, also does not pass the quality test to be adequate for consumer use.

Figure PCTCN2018116899-appb-000005
