Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cross-linkable functional latex.
  • the present invention relates in particular to an arrangement for producing a cured latex foam composition, which is suitable for the automotive sector.
  • Aqueous dispersions of polymers are also known as latex.
  • a latex is used in coatings (for example latex paint) and adhesives because it hardens by coalescence of polymer particles while water evaporates and can therefore form films without releasing potentially toxic organic substances into the environment.
  • Another application of latex involves the production of latex foams.
  • Aqueous dispersions of hydroxy- or carboxy- functional polymers are widely known latex.
  • textile coverings such as a seat, headlining, door panel
  • a layer of polyurethane foam compound Different types can be used depending on the location in the car and the production process of the part.
  • the bond between textile and foam is in most cases done with the flame lamination technique.
  • a cross linker For curing latex to latex-based products, such as a latex film or latex foam, a cross linker is of great importance.
  • Amino resins can be used to cross-link hydroxy- functional latex; adipine dihydrazide can be used to cross-link diacetone acrylamide latex.
  • Latex compositions with hydroxy-functional polymers and amino resins or polyisocyanates as cross-linkers are known in the art, as illustrated in WO 2017/006298, EP 698 638 and US 6,592,944.
  • WO 2017/006298 relates to a cross-linkable hydroxy-functional latex, wherein said latex comprises 10.0 to 65.0 wt% of hydroxy-functional latex; 0.1 to 25.0 wt% cross linker; 0.1 to 10.0 wt% of a surfactant; and at least 20.0 wt% of filler; supplemented with water up to 100.0 wt%.
  • suitable cross-linkers include aminoplasts comprising methylol and/or methylol ether groups and polyisocyanates or carbamates.
  • the cured latex compound from WO 2017/006298 is suitable for various carpets and upholstery.
  • the cured latex compound can be used as a textile backing, the latex compound can be applied to the textile before drying and curing.
  • EP 0 698 638 describes for this purpose a cross-linkable water-based dispersion of a hydroxy-functional polydiene polymer composition, comprising : (a) 10 to 65 wt% of a hydroxy-functional polydiene polymer, (b) 0.2 to 25 wt% of a suitable amino resin, (c) 0.1 up to 10 wt% of a surfactant which is ionic or anionic and has a volatile cation, and (d) the remainder water.
  • the technology of EP 0 698 638 also provides a water- continuous process and an inversion process for producing such dispersions.
  • US 6,592,944 describes for this purpose a transparent coating composition which is suitable, among other things, for use as a transparent coating layer in, among other things, finishing layers in the automotive industry.
  • the coating composition comprises polyisocyanate, polyester polyol and melamine components, with more than half of the total solid-based composition comprising the polyisocyanate and melamine components.
  • WO 02/26873 relates to a composition for preparing a latex foam.

  • WO 2017/006298, EP 698 638 and US 6,592,944 present the problem that the compositions comprise an excess of expensive functional chemical agents. A more considered choice of the composition with attention to widely available components would reduce the dependence on suppliers and also mean a considerable cost saving. In addition, there remains a need for improved compositions for preparing latex foam which can be used directly in the automotive industry without the use of flame lamination techniques or similar cost, time and energy saving techniques.
  • Styrene butadiene rubber is widely used in the automotive sector.
  • normal vulcanisation with sulfur is preferably avoided for unpleasant odours and environmental problems

  • this filler was used specifically for optimising the material properties.
  • the said amount of aluminium trihydroxide of 40.0-70.0 wt% can be used to supplement the cross- linkable functional latex and thus provide the desired material properties, in particular a dimensional stability. Care must be taken that the finally cured latex retains a sufficiently high stability; that is, in which no failure of filler material or filler occurs.
  • the greatest advantage of the above-mentioned latex is that the textile manufacturer can apply the latex directly to the textile backing material. This results in no cutting waste and there is much less loss of raw materials. The burning off of residual material is completely eliminated, which means that we have a less toxic process that entails less loss of raw materials.

  • cross-linkable functional latex with optionally a cross-linker, and further with a surfactant, a filler, a thickening agent and optionally a foam stabiliser and/or a foam booster, thereby obtaining a latex foam composition;
  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a cured latex compound, comprising the steps of:

  • a fourth aspect of the invention relates to a cured latex compound obtainable according to a method according to the third aspect of the invention.
  • the present invention provides an arrangement comprising a cured latex compound according to the third aspect of the invention, such as interior textile for the automotive industry, such as for car seat, car door and floor panel textiles.
  • a cross-linkable functional latex according to the first aspect of the invention for producing a cured latex foam composition.
  • a first aspect of the invention provides a cross-linkable functional latex, comprising :
  • cross-linkable functional latex further comprises a functional monomer, said functional monomer being a hydroxy- or a carboxy-functional monomer or a mixture thereof.
  • Aluminium trihydroxide as a filler can be used to optimise the material properties of a composition.
  • Said amount of filler in the cross-linkable functional latex of between 40.0 wt% to 70.0 wt%, preferably more than 45.0 wt%, more than 50.0 wt%, more than 55.0 wt%, and even more than 60.0 wt%; and less than 70.0 wt%, less than 67.0 wt%, and even less than 65.0 wt% of aluminium trihydroxide can be used to supplement the cross-linkable functional latex and thus to support the desired material properties.
  • cross-linkable latex according to the present invention offers satisfactory properties and resilience even if no additional cross-linker was added to the mixture. Without being bound by mechanistic considerations, it is believed that this effect can be attributed to the use of aluminium trihydroxide by the formation of ionic bonds between aluminium and the free electron pairs specific to said latex, specifically with carboxylic acid functional groups present in said latex. Possibly Al 3+ ions are responsible for this cross-linking behaviour. Aluminium trihydroxide thus exhibits cross-linking properties. Moreover, it appears that aluminium hydroxide has better properties than other fillers known in the art, such as, for example, chalk (CaCCh).
  • Aluminium trihydroxide is particularly suitable for the cross-linkable latex without conventional cross-linkers. It has unexpectedly been found that aluminium trihydroxide can act as a cross-linker in latex of the invention. Thus, the latex foam composition of the present invention has an improved characteristic, but a lower price, because it does not comprise additional cross-linkers in the composition. Aluminium hydroxide is non-carcinogenic, low toxic, halogen free and flame retardant. In addition to those properties, aluminium hydroxide can form gels in water. In fact, due to the formation of gels, aluminium hydroxide is occasionally used to purify waste water as the flocculating agent. Because gel has a strong adsorption capacity, suspended solids can be adsorbed and precipitated.
  • this property may be advantageous for cross-linking latex.
  • aluminium has trihydroxide cross-linking properties, which contributes to good properties of the latex.
  • the properties of the obtained latex are mainly advantageous for products in the automotive sector. Thereby care must be taken that the final cured latex foam composition retains a sufficiently high stability and is suitable for the textile manufacturers that can be applied directly to the textile; that is, in which no failure of filler material or filler occurs.
