Description

Title of the invention: Composition for tactile coating

Field of the invention

The invention relates in particular to compositions comprising pigments, or particles having a certain electrical conductivity, for the production of re clothing providing a tactile interface function with the users on parts with an exterior body appearance for a vehicle. automobile, as well as these coatings, these compositions and these parts of motor vehicles.

Prior art

A paint film for covering exterior parts of motor vehicles, or so-called appearance parts, is typically composed of a succession of coatings of the Primary / Base / Vemis type. For example, the primer (layer directly affixed to the support) can be of the polyurethane or acrylic type, and be arranged in a layer with a thickness that can range from 5 to 20 μm, conductive or not. The base may be of the urea, or polyurethane, or acrylic type and the layer of this coating may be from 5 to 40 μm thick. The varnish may be of the polyurethane, acrylic, siloxane type or a mixture of these compounds, and with a thickness of 10 to 40 μm. The technique is already known in the state, in particular from document WO2018 / 109340 in the name of the applicant, G use of primer loaded with conductive particles (also called pigments) in a paint film.

However, the presence of such particles, or pigments, in the layer of

primer can lead to poor adhesion of the primer and unsatisfactory results, especially with regard to high pressure washing. Furthermore, it appears that the conductivity of such layers could be improved.

The invention particularly aims to solve, or at least reduce, these problems and in particular to provide an improved composition which can be used as a primer, or for the manufacture of primer, this in particular for the reac lisation of a tactile effect paint film, of good performance, in particular for the production of motor vehicle parts.

To this end, one of the objects of the invention is a composition which can be used as a primary coating, or in order to obtain such a coating, and which will be designated "primary composition", or simply "primary" below. The primer according to the invention, which is advantageously used as a primer for paint, comprises a binder, conductive pigments, a mixture of solvents, and, optionally, an adhesion promoter, where said mixture of solvents is a mixture of solvents, organic or not, whose characteristic is to evaporate at a temperature less than or equal to 85 ° C. Such solvents can advantageously be chosen from the group consisting of acetates (for example ethyl acetate), light naphtha, benzenes (for example ethyl benzene), water, glycol ether, pyrrolidone, their derivatives and mixtures. Preferably, this mixture of solvents comprises at least 10% by mass of light naphtha relative to the total mass of the other solvents.

It is particularly preferred that the solvent mixture comprises, in addition to light naphtha, ethyl acetate and ethyl benzene.

Particularly preferably, a mixture of solvents comprising, or consisting of:

[0007] - from 50% to 60% of ethyl acetate;

- from 30% to 40% of light naphtha; and

- from 5% to 15% of ethyl benzene;

These proportions being given by mass relative to the total mass of the mixture of solvents, is used.

Such a mixture of solvents, and its use in the manufacture of composition for primary coating for paint, in particular primer for parts to tomobiles, is also an object of the invention. It can be used in the manufacture of coatings, in particular coatings for motor vehicle parts, such as body parts.

By "light naphtha" means a hydrocarbon generally derived from the distillation of petroleum and consisting of molecules having 5 to 6 carbon atoms.

It also appeared that particularly good results are obtained when the respective mass proportions of the mixture of ethyl acetate / light naphtha / ethyl benzene solvents are: 55/35/10. Of course, these proportions can vary to a small extent, for example by a few percent (such as from 0.5 to 2%) without having a too considerable effect on the resistance of a coating obtained from a primer comprising such a mixture. .

The proportion of the mixture of solvents in the composition of the primary according to

the invention is advantageously from 52% to 62%, preferably from 54% to 60%, and in particular around 57%, by mass relative to the total mass of the primary.

The primer according to the invention also comprises particles, or powders,

conductive also called conductive pigments, or simply pigments. The quantity of pigments is defined according to the conductivity of the pigment used, therefore according to the nature of the pigment. The conductive pigments can be chosen from the following group of compounds: graphite in its various forms (tubes, nanotubes, amorphous powders), metals, such as copper, silver, iron, indium ..., under various forms (tube, powder, wire), graphite and metal alloys, and their mixtures. Carbon powders are preferred components. These conductive particles can also be chosen from the group consisting of rare earth particles and / or rare earth doped alloys. To these conductive pigments, it is optionally possible to add other solid powders, or fillers, which are non-conductive or not very conductive. This filler can be chosen from the group consisting of talc, carbonates, titanium oxide Ti02, or their mixtures.

In general, the primer comprises at least 10% by mass of pigments, for example from 10% to 30% by mass of pigments, preferably from 10% to 20% by mass, in particular around 12% ( for example 11.75%) by mass relative to the total mass of the composition.

It has been established that the particle size distribution of the particles, as well as their sizes has an influence on the adhesion of the primer and its conductivity. It is thus preferable to use particles having a particle size distribution (measured by laser gravimetry) d ₉₀ of 20 μm, preferably of 15 μm. A particle size distribution of about 12 µm has been found to be very satisfactory especially when the pigments are carbon particles. However, it is envisaged to use a finer particle size and for example a particle size distribution d ₉₀ less than or equal to 10 μm, preferably less than or equal to 1 μm, for example from 0.5 to 1.5 μm. The distribution of the particles can be measured in particular according to the method used in the examples below.

The primer according to the invention also comprises a binder. The proportion of binder in the primer according to the invention can vary from 26% to 36%, preferably from 29% to 33%, for example, about 31% (in particular 31.1%) by mass relative to the mass total of primary.

This binder can advantageously be of the bicomponent polyurethane type, that is to say be the result of the condensation of at least one polyol and of an isocyanate derivative. The polyols most frequently used for this type of composition, alone or in mixtures, are C3-C6 polyols, such as glycerol, trimethylol propane, pentaerythritol or their mixtures. The relative proportion of polyol (s) P relative to that of isocyanate derivative (s), by mass, is generally from 2.5 to 3.5, preferably from 2.9 to 3.2, for example around 3.1.

Various additives can be included in the primer according to the invention. Advantageously, an adhesion promoter of the chlorinated polyolefin type (with at least 10 carbon atoms) or of the polysiloxane family (for example diphenyl dioxane of formula [SiO (C6H5) 2] n or n is greater than 4, dimethylsiloxane polymers or their derivatives, crosslinked (grafted or not) may be present, in particular when the binder is based on polyurethane. Such additives are generally added in small proportions ranging from 0.05% to 1, or 2%. Thus the amount of adhesion promoter in the primary composition according to the invention can be around 0.1% by mass relative to the total mass of the primary composition. Another type of additive which may be present in the composition according to the invention is a catalyst for the polymerization reaction of the binder, for example a tin-based catalyst. The catalyst can be added in proportions ranging from 0.001% to 0.1% by mass relative to the weight of the composition. Thus, according to a preferred aspect of the invention, it relates to a primary composition comprising, or optionally consisting essentially of:

- from 52% to 62%, preferably from 54% to 60%, for example 57% of a mixture of solvents;

- from 26% to 36%, preferably from 29% to 33%, for example 31% of a binder, for

example of a polyurethane-based binder;

- from 10% to 23%, preferably from 10% and 20%, for example 12% of pigments

conductors, such as carbon particles, these pigments advantageously having a particle size distribution of ₉₀ μm;

- optionally from 0.05 to 0.55%, preferably from 0.05% to 0.15%, of adhesion promoter, for example 0.09% of a polysiloxane;

- The percentages being given by mass relative to the total mass of said composition and where the solvent mixture is as described above.

When the binder is a type of binder based on polyurethane it is common that it is formed only a short time before its application as a primary surface coating. In this case, the primary composition is obtained by mixing a composition called "resin" and a composition called "hardener", the mixture of which makes up the primary. The resin comprises in particular a monomer, for example of the polyol type. The hardener comprises a reactive compound, such as an isocyanate-based compound, generally bi-functional, such as a diisocyanate oligomer. The mixture of these compounds allows the manufacture of the binder by polymerization of the monomers and of the reagent by simple mixing of the resin and the hardener.

Another object of the invention is a resin for the manufacture of a com

primary position, said resin comprising a monomer, optionally conductive pigments, a mixture of solvents and, optionally, an adhesion promoter, where said mixture of solvents is a mixture of solvents, organic or not, the characteristic of which is evaporate at a temperature less than or equal to 85 ° C.

Such solvents can be chosen as described above in relation to the primary composition. The proportion of the mixture of solvents in the composition of the resin according to the invention is advantageously from 55% to 65%, preferably from 60 to 62% by total mass of the resin. The resin according to the invention advantageously comprises pigments, these are advantageously as described above. The quantity of pigments is defined according to the conductivity of the pigment used, therefore according to the nature of the pigment. In general, the resin comprises at least 10% by mass of pigments, for example from 10% to 30% by mass of pigments, preferably from 10% and 20% by mass, for example 13% by mass relative to the mass total of the resin.

The monomer is preferably a polyol or a mixture thereof. The polyols most frequently used for this type of composition, alone or as a mixture, are C3-C6 polyols, such as glycerol, trimethylol propane or pentaerythritol. The proportion of the monomer in the composition of the resin is advantageously from 21% to 31%, preferably from 24 to 28% by total mass of the resin (for example about 26%).

Various additives can be added to the resin according to the invention. So

advantageous an adhesion promoter of the chlorinated polyolefin type (with at least 10 carbon atoms) or of the polysiloxane family (for example diphenyl dioxane of formula [SiO (C6H5) 2] n or n is greater than 4), polymers of dimethylsiloxane and their derivatives, crosslinked (grafted) or not) can be added. Such additives are generally added in small proportions ranging from a few percent, by mass, for example 1% or 2%, to a few tenths of a percent. Thus, the amount of adhesion promoter in the resin according to the invention can be approximately 0.1% by mass relative to the total mass of the resin. Another type of additive which can be added to the resin according to the invention is a catalyst for the polymerization reaction, for example a catalyst based on tin. The catalyst can be added in proportions ranging from 0.001% to 0.1% by mass relative to the weight of the resin.

[0033] Thus, one aspect of the invention is a composition or, resin, advantageously comprising:

- from 55% to 65%, preferably from 60% to 62%, of a mixture of solvents;

- from 21% to 31%, preferably from 24% to 28% of a monomer, for example a

polyol or a mixture of C3-C6 polyols;

- from 10% to 23%, preferably from 10% and 20%, of conductive pigments, by

example of carbon particles having a particle size distribution of ₉₀ 12 µm;

- optionally from 0.05 to 0.55%, preferably from 0.05% to 0.15%, of additive, for example 0.1% of a polysiloxane;

These proportions being given by mass relative to the total mass of the resin.

Preferably the different components, and in particular the mixture of solvents, are as described above. To obtain the primer composition according to the invention, the resin according to the invention can be combined with a composition comprising a hardener and optionally pigments (although the presence of pigments in the hardener is not necessary, in particular if these are present in the resin). Advantageously, this composition comprising a hardener, or “hardener” also comprises a solvent which may be the mixture of solvent according to the invention as previously described. Such a hardener is also an object of the invention. In this case, the hardener on the one hand, and the mixture of solvents on the other hand, are advantageously present in respective mass proportions of approximately 80/20 ± 2%. It is advantageous that, on the one hand, the solvent of the composition comprising the hardener and, on the other hand, the solvent present in the resin are the same (that is to say are the same mixture of solvents). The hardener is preferably based on an isocyanate, or one of its derivative (s), preferably bifunctional (s), and on a mixture of solvents according to the invention. For example, it can comprise oligomers and monomers of hexamethylene diisocyanate in a respective mass proportion of 98/2. Preferably the hardener comprises a mixture of solvents as described above.

The resin and the hardener can therefore be mixed to obtain a primer according to the invention, for example in relative proportions of resin / hardener of approximately 90/10.

The primer according to the invention can be used as a coating, in particular the primary coating of a paint film. It can therefore cover a part and in particular a part of a motor vehicle. Generally, the primer is used in diluted form, this form being sufficiently fluid to be ready to be sprayed onto the part to be covered. This diluted form is a ready-to-paint or ready-to-use form and is also an object of the invention. Such a formulation advantageously comprises an addition of solvent to the composition according to the invention as described above. This addition of solvent can represent more than 33% by mass, for example approximately 37.5%, of the total mass of the ready-to-paint composition. This solvent has the characteristic of evaporating (at normal pressure) at a temperature less than or equal to 85 ° C. Advantageously, the added solvent is one of the components of the mixture of solvents for the primer and in particular it can consist entirely or partly of ethyl acetate.

Also, such a ready-to-use composition can advantageously comprise:

- from 68% to 78%, preferably from 71% to 75%, for example around 73% of a

mixture of solvents;

- From 15.5% to 23.5%, preferably from 17.5% to 21.5%, for example 19.5% of a binder, for example of a binder based on polyurethane;

- from 5% to 9%, preferably from 6% and 8%, for example about 7% of pigments conductors, such as carbon particles advantageously having a particle size distribution of _{90 to} 12 μm;

- optionally from 0.05 to 0.55%, preferably from 0.05% to 0.15%, of adhesion promoter, for example 0.06% of a polysiloxane;

- the percentages being given by mass relative to the total mass of the ready-to-use composition.

In the case where the solvent added to obtain the ready-to-use composition is ethyl acetate, then the mixture of solvent present in the ready-to-use composition, by mass relative to the mass total of solvents, is advantageously as follows:

- from 74% to 82% of ethyl acetate, preferably from 76% to 80%, for example 78%;

- 13% to 21% of light naphtha, preferably from 14% to 19%, for example 17%; and

- from 0.5% to 8.5% of ethyl benzene, preferably from 2.5% to 6.5%, for example

4.5%.

Another object of the invention is a method of manufacturing a coating for a part and in particular of a part of a motor vehicle, for example a bodywork part, comprising the application to a surface of said part of a composition according to the invention. The step of applying the composition is advantageously followed by a drying step, by cooking. This can take place at a temperature below 95 ° C, advantageously at a temperature ranging from 75 ° C to 85 ° C, for example around 80 ° C. This drying step can last from 20 minutes to an hour, preferably this lasts from 30 to 40 minutes, approximately. The part thus obtained advantageously has a dry coating, or film, of about 15 μm in thickness.

Before the baking step, a layer of paint (base) and a layer of varnish can be applied to the layer of composition according to the invention (primer or diluted primer) so as to form a sheet of paint. The base layer can be based on melamine, urea-like compounds, polyurethane, acrylic or a mixture of its compounds. It can also include organic solvents and mineral pigments, in particular those described above. The layer of this re garment (base) can be from 5 to 40 μm thick. The varnish may be based on a two-component polyurethane system, based on acrylic, such as an epoxy resin, siloxane or a mixture of these compounds, and with a thickness which can range from 10 to 40 μm. These layers can also be deposited by spraying.

The part thus obtained is also an object of the invention.

Another object of the invention is the use of at least one of the compositions according to the invention as described in the manufacture of a part, and in particular of a motor vehicle part.

Another object of the invention is a process for manufacturing a composition primer (eg paint) comprising the mixture of a resin according to the invention and a hardener. The composition obtained is advantageously used as a coating for an automobile part.

Another object of the invention is a process for obtaining a coating, in particular a paint film, on a part of a motor vehicle, for example a bodywork part, which comprises the dilution of a primer according to the invention in a solvent, and / or a mixture of solvents as described above, and the application of said primer diluted by spraying onto a surface of said part, optionally followed by the apposition of at least at least one other layer of coatings and / or paint, this application being advantageously followed by a drying step, for example that described above.

Finally, another object of the invention is a kit for producing a composition according to the invention. This kit may include the association of a mixture of solvents, resin, hardener, and / or primer as described above, with optionally a manual for making a primer or a primer ready for use according to the invention. This manual may include an indication of the proportions required of these various components.

The motor vehicle part to which the composition according to the invention is applied is generally a part based on a thermoplastic material or material. These thermoplastic materials can include acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polyamides such as polycaprolactams:

[NH- (CH2) 5-CO] n (PA-6), and the polyhexamethylene adipamides:

[NH- (CH2) 6-NH-CO- (CH2) 4-CO] n (PA-6, 6,), polycarbonates (PC), high density polyethylenes (PE-HD), low density polyethylenes (PE-LD), amorphous or crystalline poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET), poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), polypropylenes (PP), polystyrenes (PS) "crystal", polychloride rigid vinyl (PVC) and mixtures thereof. Polypropylene (PP) -based plastic is one of the most widely used plastics, in particular due to its simplicity of manufacture and molding and these rheological properties. In addition, a material based on polypropylene or based on polypropylene / polyethylene gives particularly satisfactory results.

It should be noted that the expression “based on X” designates a material of which the main component is X. This expression can also, but not necessarily, designate the composition of a material of which the majority component is X. Thus, for example, this expression designates a material comprising at least 35% by weight of X, preferably this at least 40%, more particularly at least 50% or even, at least 60% of X by mass relative to the total mass of the composition.

Blue laser: 10 mW LED, l = 470 nm.

The powder is dispersed in an appropriate liquid: o-xylene (d = 0.88 and index of re- fraction n20D = 1.43). The particle size is measured in the liquid phase using the Hydro SV module. The pigment suspension is poured into the tank of the Hydro 3000 module, filled with dispersing liquid, until the rate of obscuration is sufficient. A blank (measurement of background noise) is carried out with o-xylene then a few drops of sample are introduced into the module in order to obtain a rate

obscuration of between 5 and 15%. The settings for the measurement intervals are as follows:

Agitation (magnetic bar): 1500 rpm

Repeatability: 5 measurements

Mode of measurement: opaque particles (Fraunhofer model, which means that the refractive indices of the pigments are not used during the measurements.
