Description

FLEXIBLE
PHOTOCURABLE CYANOACRYLATE COMPOSITIONS
BACKGROUND
Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a photocurable composition which includes a cyanoacrylate component, a
metallocene component, a photoinitiator component and a
plasticizer component, reaction products of which show among other things improved flexibility in terms of elongation at break .
Brief Description of Related Technology
[0002] Cyanoacrylate adhesive compositions are well known, and widely used as quick setting, instant adhesives with a wide variety of uses. See H.V. Coover, D.W. Dreifus and J.T.
O'Connor, ‘"Cyanoacrylate Adhesives" in Handbook of Adhesives,
27, 463-77, I. Skeist, ed. , Van Nostrand Reinhold, New York, 3rd ed. (1990). See also G.H. Millet, "Cyanoacrylate Adhesives" in Structural Adhesives: Chemistry and Technology, S.R. Hartshorn, ed., Plenun Press, New York, p. 249-307 (1986).
[0003] Cyanoacrylate compositions ordinarily tend to cure to form relatively brittle polymeric materials. This is an
undesirable property for certain applications where a degree of flexibility in the polymeric material is desired. Such
applications include bonding flexible materials where a degree of flexibility in the bond to match the flexibility of the material is desired. It is also desirable to have a flexible polymeric material in applications where the polymeric material may be subjected to varying forces in its end-use application. For example, if the polymeric material has bonded together two substrates, the substrates may not remain in an undisturbed condition but may be subject to external forces, such as where the substrates form part of a moving object, or part of a stationary object which is subjected to one or more continuous or occasional forces from other moving objects.
[0004] In the past, efforts have been made to improve the flexibility of cured products of cyanoacrylate compositions.
See e.g. U.S. Patent Nos. 2,776,232, 2,784,215, 2,784,127, 3,699,127, 3,961,966, 4,364,876, and 4,444,933. But not with photocurable cyanoacrylates, such as are described in U.S.
Patent No. 5,922,783 (Wojciak).
[0005] The '783 patent provides a photocurable composition comprising: (a) a 2-cyanoacrylate component, (b) a metallocene component, and (c) a photoinitiator component. No mention is made in the '783 patent to include plasticizers or to try to flexiblize the cured product of the so-disclosed photocurable compositions .
[0006] One approach to overcoming the brittleness of conventional polymerized cyanoacrylate adhesives has been to plasticize the composition through the use of monomer mixtures. The use of mixtures of cyanoacrylate monomers is thought to result in a more flexible polymeric material when the monomer mixture is cured. A second approach has been to incorporate plasticizers into cyanoacrylate compositions. The flexibility here is generally obtained at the expense of cure speed and/or bond strength.
[0007] U.S. Patent No. 6,977,278 (Misiak) describes certain cyanoacrylate compositions comprising: (i) at least one lower cyanoacrylate monomer component selected from ethyl
cyanoacrylate and methoxycyanoacrylate ; (ii) at least one> higher cyanoacrylate monomer component in an amount greater than 12% by weight based on the total weight of the combination of the lower cyanoacrylate monomer and the higher cyanoacrylate monomer, and selected from n-propyl-cyanoacrylate, iso-propyl cyanoacrylate, n-butylcyanoacrylate, sec-butyl-cyanoacrylate, iso-butyl- cyanoacrylate, tert-butyl-cyanoacrylate, n-pentyl-cyanoacrylate, 1-methyl-butyl-cyanoacrylate, 1-ethyl-propyl-cyanoacrylate, neopentyl-cyanoacrylate, n-hexyl-cyanoacrylate, 1-methyl pentyl- cyanoacrylate, n-heptyl-cyanoacrylate, n-octyl-cyanoacrylate, n- nonyl-cyanoacrylate, n-decyl-cyanoacrylate, n-undecyl- cyanoacrylate, n-dodecyl-cyanoacrylate, cyclohexyl- cyanoacrylate, benzyl-cyanoacrylate, phenyl-cyanoacrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl-cyanoacrylate, allyl cyanoacrylate,
propargyl-cyanoacrylate, 2-butenyl-cyanoacrylate, phenethyl- cyanoacrylate, chloropropyl-cyanoacrylate, ethoxyethyl- cyanoacrylate, ethoxypropyl-cyanoacrylate, ethoxy isopropyl- cyanoacrylate, propoxyethyl-cyanoacrylate, isopropoxyethyl- cyanoacrylate, butoxyethyl-cyanoacrylate, methoxypropyl- cyanoacrylate, methoxy isopropyl-cyanoacrylate, methoxy butyl- cyanoacrylate, propoxymethyl-cyanoacrylate, propoxy ethyl- cyanoacrylate, propoxy propyl-cyanoacrylate, butoxymethyl- cyanoacrylate, butoxyethyl-cyanoacrylate, butoxypropyl- cyanoacrylate, butoxyisopropyl-cyanoacrylate, butoxy butyl- cyanoacrylate, iso-nonyl-cyanoacrylate, iso-decyl-cyanoacrylate, cyclohexyl methyl-cyanoacrylate, naphtyl-cyanoacrylate, 2— ( 2 '— methoxy) -ethoxy ethyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -ethoxy) -ethoxy ethyl- cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -propyloxy) -ethoxy ethyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -butyloxy) -ethoxy ethyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -pentyloxy) - ethoxy ethyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- ( 2 ' -hexylox ) -ethoxy ethyl- cyanoacrylate, 2- ( 2 ' -methoxy) -propyloxy propyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -ethoxy) -propyloxy propyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -propyloxy) - propyloxy propyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -pentyloxy) -propyloxy propyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -hexyloxy) -propyloxy propyl- cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -methoxy) -butyloxy butylcyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -ethoxy) -butyloxy butyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -butyloxy) - butyloxy butyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- ( 3 ' -methoxy) -propyloxy ethyl- cyanoacrylate, 2- ( 3 ' -methoxy) -butyloxy ethyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (3 ' -methoxy) -propyloxy propyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- ( 3 ' -methoxy) - butyloxy propyl-cyanoacrylate, 2- (2 ' -methoxy) -ethoxy propyl- cyanoacrylate, and 2- (2 ' -methoxy) -ethoxy, butyl-cyanoacrylate; (iii) at least one plasticizer component comprising at least one ester group containing plasticizer, the plasticizer component being miscible in a mixture of component (i) and component (ii) ; the plasticizer component being present in the composition in an amount between about 15 to about 40% by weight of the
composition, and the plasticizer component having an Ap/Po ratio in the range of about 1 to less than about 6, provided the plasticizer component does not include
pentaerythritoltetrabenzoate as the sole plasticizer.
[0008] The '278 patent makes clear that amounts of
plasticizer up to 12 weight percent do not result in the desired properties and very high amounts of plasticizer deleteriously affect cure speeds and bond strength so that it appears that the desired flexibility can be achieved in the cured compositions if amounts less than about 40 weight percent are used.
[0009] More recently, U.S. Patent No. 9,528,034 (Li)
describes and claims a cyanoacrylate composition, comprising:
(a) a cyanoacrylate component comprising the combination of ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate and octyl-2-cyanoacrylate ; and (b) acetyl triethyl citrate in an amount of from about 5 weight percent to less than about 15 weight percent. No mention is made in the Ό34 patent that the teachings therein may be extended to a photocurable cyanoacrylate composition.
[0010] Despite the state of the technology, there has been a long standing, but yet unmet, desire to achieve a photocurable cyanoacrylate composition showing all of the attributes of photocurable cyanoacrylate composition and adding to that a degree of flexibility. It would accordingly be quite
advantageous to provide a solution to that desire.
SUMMARY
[0011] The present invention provides just that.
[0012] Indeed, the present invention provides photocurable compositions which include a cyanoacrylate component (such as ethyl-2-cyanoacrylate) , a metallocene component (such as ferrocene), a photoinitiator component (such as 2,4,6- trimethylbenzoyldiphenylphosphine oxide) , and a plasticizer component (such as a short chain alkylene compound having a plurality of alkyl esters and/or reverse alkyl esters
substituted thereon) .
[0013] In addition, the present invention is directed to reaction products of the inventive compositions.
[0014] Also, the invention is directed to a method of preparing the inventive compositions.
[0015] And the invention is directed to a method of bonding substrates using the inventive compositions.
[0016] The invention will be more fully understood by a reading of the section entitled "Detailed Description", which follows . DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0017] As noted above, the present invention relates to a photocurable composition which includes a cyanoacrylate
component, a metallocene component, a photoinitiator component and a plasticizer component.
[0018] The cyanoacrylate component includes cyanoacrylate monomers which may be chosen with a raft of substituents, such as those represented by H2C=C (CN) -COOR, where R is selected from Ci-15 alkyl, alkoxyalkyl, cycloalkyl, alkenyl, aralkyl, aryl, allyl and haloalkyl groups. Desirably, the cyanoacrylate monomer is selected from methyl cyanoacrylate, ethyl-2- cyanoacrylate, propyl cyanoacrylates, butyl cyanoacrylates, octyl cyanoacrylates, allyl-2-cyanoacrylate, B-methoxyethyl-2- cyanoacrylate and combinations thereof. A particularly
desirable cyanoacrylate monomer for use herein is ethyl-2- cyanoacrylate .
[0019] The amount of the cyanoacrylate component is about 65 weight percent to about 95 weight percent, such as about 70 weight percent to about 85 weight percent, desirably about 75 weight percent to about 80 weight percent.
[0020] A variety of metallocenes are suitable for use herein. Those materials of particular interest herein may be represented by metallocenes within structure I :
I where Ri and R2 may be the same or different and may occur at least once and up to as many four times on each ring in the event of a five-membered ring and up to as many as five times on each ring in the event of a six-membered ring;
Ri and R2 may be selected from H; any straight- or branched-chain alkyl constituent having from 1 to about 8 carbon atoms, such as CH3, CH2CH3, CH2CH2CH3, CH(CH3)2, C(CH3)3 or the like; acetyl; vinyl; allyl; hydroxyl; carboxyl; -(CH2)n-OH, where n may be an integer in the range of 1 to about 8; - (CH2) n-COOR3, where n may be an integer in the range of 1 to about 8 and R3 may be any straight- or branched-chain alkyl constituent having from 1 to about 8 carbon atoms; H; Li; Na; or -(CH2)n', where n' may be an integer in the range of 2 to about 8; -(CH2)n-OR4, wherein n may be an integer in the range of 1 to about 8 and R4 may be any straight- or branched-chain alkyl constituent having from 1 to about 8 carbon atoms; or - (CH ) n-N+ (CH3) 3 X , where n may be an integer in the range of 1 to about 8 and X may be Cl-, Br-, I-, CIO4- or BF4-;
YI and Y2 may not be present at all, but when at least one is present they may be the same or different and may be selected from H, Cl-, Br-, I-, cyano, methoxy, acetyl, hydroxy, nitro, trialkylamines, triaryamines , trialkylphospines , triphenylamine, tosyl and the like;
A and A' may be the same or different and may be C or
N;
m and m' may be the same or different and may be 1 or
2 ; and
Me is Fe, Ti, Ru, Co, Ni, Cr, Cu, Mn, Pd, Ag, Rh, Pt, Zr, Hf, Nb, V, Mo and the like.
[0021] Of course, depending on valence state, the element represented by Me may have additional ligands -- Yi and Y2 -- associated therewith beyond the carbocyclic ligands depicted above (such as where Me is Ti and Yi and Y2 are Cl-) .
[0022] Alternatively, the metallocene of structure I may be modified to include materials such as those embraced by
metallocene structure IΆ :
Figure imgf000009_0001
IA
where Ri, R2, Yi, Y2, A, A', m, m' and Me are as defined above. A particularly desirable example of such a material is where Ri and R2 are each H; Yi and Y2 are each Cl; A and A' are each N; m and m' are each 2 and Me is Ru.
[0023] Within the metallocene of structure I, well-suited metallocenes may be chosen from within the metallocene of structure II:
Figure imgf000010_0001
where Ri, R2 and Me are as defined above.
[0024] Particularly well-suited metallocenes from within structure I may be chosen where Ri, R2, Yi, Y2, m and m' are as defined above, and Me is chosen from Ti, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ag, Zr, Hf, Nb, V and Mo.
[0025] Desirably, the metallocene is selected from ferrocenes (i . e . , where Me is Fe) , such as ferrocene, vinyl ferrocenes, ferrocene derivatives, such as butyl ferrocenes or
diarylphosphino metal-complexed ferrocenes [e . g . , 1,1-bis
(diphenylphosphino) ferrocene-palladium dichloride] , titanocenes ( i . e . , where Me is Ti) , such as bis (m5-2 , 4-cyclopentadien-l-yl ) - bis- [2 , 6-difluoro-3- ( lH-pyrrol-l-yl) phenyl] titanium which is available commercially from IGM Resins B.V., Netherlands under the tradename "IRGACURE" 784DC, and derivatives and combinations thereof. A particularly desirable metallocene is ferrocene.
[0026] And bis-alkylmetallocenes, for instance, bis- alkylferrocenes (such as diferrocenyl ethane, propanes, butanes and the like) are also desirable for use herein, particularly since about half of the equivalent weight of the material (as compared to a non-bis-metallocene) may be employed to obtain the sought-after results, all else being unchanged. Of these materials, diferrocenyl ethane is particularly desirable. [0027] Of course, other materials may be well-suited for use as the metallocene component. For instance, Me [CW3-CO-CH=C (0~) - CW ' 3] 2, where Me is as defined above, and W and W may be the same or different and may be selected from H, and halogens, such as F and Cl. Examples of such materials include platinum (II) acetyl acetonate ("PtACAC"), cobalt (II) acetyl acetonate
("CoACAC"), nickel (II) acetyl acetonate ("NiACAC") and copper (II) acetyl acetonate ("CuACAC"). Combinations of those materials may also be employed.
[0028] A number of photoinitiators may be employed herein to provide the benefits and advantages of the present invention to which reference is made above. Photoinitiators enhance the rapidity of the curing process when the photocurable
compositions as a whole are exposed to electromagnetic
radiation. Certain metallocenes, such as "IRGACURE" 784DC, may serve a dual purpose as both metallocene and photoinitiator.
[0029] Examples of suitable photoinitiators for use herein include, but are not limited to, photoinitiators available commercially from IGM Resins B.V., Netherlands under the
"IRGACURE" and "DAROCUR" tradenames, specifically
"IRGACURE" 184 ( 1-hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone) , 907 (2- methyl-1- [4- (methylthio) phenyl] -2-morpholino propan-l-one) , 369 (2-benzyl-2-N, N-dimethylamino-1- ( 4-morpholinophenyl) -1- butanone) , 500 (the combination of 1-hydroxy cyclohexyl phenyl ketone and benzophenone) , 651 (2 , 2-dimethoxy-2-phenyl
acetophenone), 1700 (the combination of bis (2, 6- dimethoxybenzoyl-2 , 4-, 4-trimethyl pentyl) phosphine oxide and 2- hydroxy-2-methyl-l-phenyl-propan-l-one) , and 819 [bis (2, 4,6- trimethyl benzoyl) phenyl phosphine oxide] and "DAROCUR" 1173 (2-hydroxy-2-methyl-l-phenyl-l-propane) and 4265 (the
combination of 2 , 4 , 6-trimethylbenzoyldiphenyl-phosphine oxide and 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-l-phenyl-propan-l-one) ; and the visible light [blue] photoinitiators, dl-camphorquinone and "IRGACURE" 784DC. Of course, combinations of these materials may also be employed herein.
[0030] Other photoinitiators useful herein include alkyl pyruvates, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl pyruvates, and aryl pyruvates, such as phenyl, benzyl, and appropriately substituted derivatives thereof.
[0031] Photoinitiators particularly well-suited for use herein include ultraviolet photoinitiators, such as 2,2- dimethoxy-2-phenyl acetophenone (e . g . , "IRGACURE" 651) , and 2- hydroxy-2-methyl-l-phenyl-l-propane (e . g, , "DAROCUR" 1173) , bis (2, 4 , 6-trimethyl benzoyl) phenyl phosphine oxide (e . g. , "IRGACURE" 819), 2 , 4 , 6-trimethylbenzoyldiphenylphosphine oxide (e . g. "IRGACURE" TPO) , ethyl (2 , 4 , 6-trimethylbenzoyl )
phenylphosphinate (e . g . "IRGACURE" TPO-L) and the
ultraviolet/visible photoinitiator combination of bis (2, 6- dimethoxybenzoyl-2 , 4 , 4-trimethylpentyl) phosphine oxide and 2- hydroxy-2-methyl-l-phenyl-propan-l-one (e . g. , "IRGACURE" 1700) , as well as the visible photoinitiator bis (h5-2 , 4-cyclopentadien- 1-yl) -bis [2, 6-difluoro-3- (lH-pyrrol-l-yl) phenyl] titanium (e . g. , "IRGACURE" 784DC) .
[0032] The plasticizer component should be a short chain alkylene compound having a plurality of alkyl esters and/or reverse alkyl esters substituents thereon. Desirably, the short chain alkylene compound should have 3 or 4 carbon atoms . The short chain alkylene compound should also be a straight chain compound (in contrast to a branched or a cyclic one) . The short chain alkylene compound should also have between two and four substituents thereon. Those substituents should be lower alkyl (e . g . , in this case C1-3) esters or reverse esters, Specific examples of the plasticizers therefore are:
Figure imgf000013_0001
C
[0033] The plasticizer component should be used in an amount of about 5 weight percent to less than about 35 weight percent, such as about 15 to about 30 weight percent, desirably about 25 weight percent, based on the total composition.
[0034] More specifically, the plasticizer component may be embraced by a three carbon structure on which methyl esters and/or reverse methyl esters are attached.
[0035] Accelerators may also be included in the inventive cyanoacrylate compositions, such as any one or more selected from calixarenes and oxacalixarenes , silacrowns, crown ethers, cyclodextrins, poly (ethyleneglycol) di ( eth) acrylates ,
ethoxylated hydric compounds and combinations thereof.
[0036] Of the calixarenes and oxacalixarenes, many are known and are reported in the patent literature. See e . g . U.S. Patent
Nos. 4,556,700, 4,622,414, 4,636,539, 4,695,615, 4,718,966, and 4,855,461, the disclosures of each of which are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference.
[0037] For instance, as regards calixarenes, those within the following structure are useful herein:

where R1 is alkyl, alkoxy, substituted alkyl or substituted alkoxy; R2 is H or alkyl; and n is 4, 6 or 8.
[0038] One particularly desirable calixarene is tetrabutyl tetra [2-ethoxy-2-oxoethoxy] calix-4-arene .
[0039] A host of crown ethers are known. For instance, examples which may be used herein either individually or in combination, include 15-crown-5, 18-crown-6, dibenzo-18-crown-6, benzo-15-crown-5-dibenzo-24-crown-8 , dibenzo-30-crown-10 , tribenzo-18-crown-6, asym-dibenzo-22-crown-6, dibenzo-14-crown- 4, dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6, dicyclohexyl-24-crown-8 , cyclohexyl- 12-crown-4, 1, 2-decalyl-15-crown-5 , 1 , 2-naphtho-15-crown-5 ,

See U.S. Patent No.
4,837,260 (Sato), the disclosure of which is hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference. [0040] Of the silacrowns, again many are known, and are reported in the literature.
[0041] Specific examples of silacrown compounds useful in the inventive compositions include:

dimethylsila-ll-crown-4 ;
Figure imgf000015_0002
dimethylsila-14-crown-5 ; and dimethylsila-17-crown-6.
See e . g . U.S. Patent No. 4,906,317 (Liu), the disclosure of which is hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference.
[0042] Many cyclodextrins may be used in connection with the present invention. For instance, those described and claimed in U.S. Patent No. 5,312,864 (Wenz) , the disclosure of which is hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference, as hydroxyl group derivatives of an a, b or g-cyclodextrin would be
appropriate choices as an accelerator component.
[0043] For instance, poly (ethylene glycol) di (meth) acrylates suitable for use herein include those within the following structure:
Figure imgf000016_0001
where n is greater than 3, such as within the range of 3 to 12, with n being 9 as particularly desirable. More specific
examples include PEG 200 DMA, (where n is about 4) PEG 400 DMA (where n is about 9), PEG 600 DMA (where n is about 14), and PEG 800 DMA (where n is about 19), where the number (e . g, , 400) represents the average molecular weight of the glycol portion of the molecule, excluding the two methacrylate groups, expressed as grams/mole· (i . e . , 400 g/mol) . A particularly desirable PEG DMA is PEG 400 DMA.
[0044] And of the ethoxylated hydric compounds (or
ethoxylated fatty alcohols that may be employed) , appropriate ones may be chosen from those within the following structure:
Figure imgf000017_0001
where Cm can be a linear or branched alkyl or alkenyl chain, m is an integer between 1 to 30, such as from 5 to 20, n is an integer between 2 to 30, such as from 5 to 15, and R may be H or alkyl, such as Ci-6 alkyl.
[0045] ' When used, the accelerator embraced by the above structures should be included in the compositions in an amount within the range of from about 0.01 weight percent to about 10 weight percent, with the range of about 0.1 weight percent to about 0.5 weight percent being desirable, and about 0.4 weight percent of the total composition being particularly desirable.
[0046] A stabilizer package is also ordinarily found in cyanoacrylate compositions. The stabilizer package may include one or more free radical stabilizers and anionic stabilizers, each of the identity and amount of which are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. See e . g . U.S. Patent Nos.
5,530,037 and 6,607,632, the disclosures of each of which are incorporated herein by reference.
[0047] The source of radiation emitting electromagnetic waves chosen to photocure the inventive compositions may be selected from ultraviolet light, visible light, electron beam, x-rays, infrared radiation and combinations thereof. Desirably, ultraviolet light is the radiation of choice, with appropriate sources including "H", "D", "V", "X", "M" and "A" lamps, mercury arc lamps, and xenon arc lamps; microwave-generated ultraviolet radiation; solar power and fluorescent light sources. Any of these electromagnetic radiation sources may use in conjunction therewith reflectors and/or filters, so as to focus the emitted radiation onto a specific portion of a substrate onto which has been dispensed a photocurable composition and/or within a particular region of the electromagnetic spectrum. Similarly, the electromagnetic radiation may be generated directly in a steady fashion or in an intermittent fashion so as to minimize the degree of heat build-up. Although the electromagnetic radiation employed to cure the photocurable compositions into desired reaction products is often referred to herein as being in the ultraviolet region, that is not to say that other
radiation within the electromagnetic spectrum may not also be suitable. For instance, in certain situations, radiation in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum may also be advantageously employed, whether alone or in combination with, for instance, radiation in the ultraviolet region. Of course, microwave and infrared radiation may also be advantageously employed under appropriate conditions .
[0048] Higher or lower radiation intensities, greater or fewer exposures thereto and length of exposure and/or greater or lesser distances of the source of radiation to the composition may be required to complete curing, depending of course on the particular components of a chosen composition.
[0049] More specifically with respect to radiation intensity, the chosen lamp should have a power rating of at least about 100 watts per inch (about 40 watts per cm) , with a power rating of at least about 300 watts per inch (about 120 watts per cm) being particularly desirable. Also, since the inclusion of a photoinitiator in the composition may shift the wavelength within the electromagnetic radiation spectrum at which cure occurs, it may be desirable to use a source of electromagnetic radiation whose variables (e , g. , wavelength, distance, and the like) are readily adjustable.
[0050] During the curing process, the composition will be exposed to a source of electromagnetic radiation that emits an amount of energy, measured in KJ/m2, determined by parameters including: the size, type and geometry of the source; the duration of the exposure to electromagnetic radiation; the intensity of the radiation (and that portion of radiation emitted within the region appropriate to effect curing) ; the absorbency of electromagnetic radiation by any intervening materials, such as substrates; and the distance the composition lies from the source of radiation. Those persons of skill in the art should readily appreciate that curing of the composition may be optimized by choosing appropriate values for these parameters in view of the particular components of the
composition .
[0051] To effect cure, the source of electromagnetic
radiation may remain stationary while the composition passes through its path. Alternatively, a substrate coated with the photocurable composition may remain stationary while the source of electromagnetic radiation passes thereover or therearound to complete the transformation from composition to reaction
product. Still alternatively, both may traverse one another, or for that matter remain stationary, provided that the
photocurable composition is exposed to electromagnetic radiation sufficient to effect cure. [0052] Commercially available caring systems, such as the "ZETA" 7200 or 7400 ultraviolet curing chamber (Henkel
Corporation, Rocky Hill, CT) , Fusion UV Curing Systems F-300 B (Fusion UV Curing Systems, Buffalo Grove, IL) , Hanovia UV Curing System (Hanovia Corp., Newark, NJ) , BlackLight Model B-100 ( Spectroline, Westbury, NY) and RC500 A Pulsed UV Curing System (Xenon Corp., Woburn, MA) , are well-suited for the purposes described herein.
[0053] The required amount of energy may be delivered by exposing the composition to a less powerful source of
electromagnetic radiation for a longer period of time, through for example multiple passes, or alternatively, by exposing the composition to a more powerful source of electromagnetic radiation for a shorter period of time. In addition, each of those multiple passes may occur with a source at different energy intensities. In any event, those persons of skill in the art should choose an appropriate source of electromagnetic radiation depending on the particular composition, and position that source at a suitable distance therefrom which, together with the length of exposure, optimizes transformation. Also, it may be desirable to use a source of electromagnetic radiation that is delivered in an intermittent fashion, such as by pulsing or strobing, so as to ensure a thorough and complete cure without causing excessive heat build-up.
[0054] In another aspect of the invention, there is provided a method of bonding together two substrates, which method includes applying to at least one of the substrates a
composition as described above, and thereafter mating together the substrates for a time sufficient to permit the adhesive to fixture. For many applications, the substrate should become fixed by the inventive compositions in less than about 150 seconds, and depending on the substrate as little as about 30 seconds .
[0055] In yet another aspect of the invention, there are provided cured products of the so-described compositions.
[0056] The invention will be further illustrated by the examples which follow.
EXAMPLES
[0057] Photocurable compositions were prepared from the constituents noted below in Table 1 in the amounts recorded.
Each composition also contained PMMA as a thickener in an amount of 6 weight percent and a stabilizer.
Table 1
Figure imgf000021_0002
[0058] The plasticizers referred to as compounds A, B and C are shown below:
Figure imgf000021_0001
A
Figure imgf000022_0002
c
[0059] Apart from the plasticizers noted as compounds A, B or
C, the remaining plasticizers (shown below) contain either an aromatic ring or a cycloaliphatic ring and have molecular weights greater than 300. While dibutyl sebacate is a straight chain ester, the chain length is 8 carbon atoms (not 3 or 4 carbon atoms) and the ester is 4 carbon atoms (not 1, 2 or 3 carbon atoms) .
Figure imgf000022_0001
MORFLEX 540
Figure imgf000023_0001
MORFLEX 560
[0060] MORFLEX 540 (Tributyl trimellitate) and MORFLEX 560 (Trihexyl trimellitate) are each available commercially from Vartellus Holdings LLC, Indianapolis, IN and HEXAMOLL DINCH (1,2-Cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid diisononyl ester) is
available commercially from BASF Corporation, Florham Park, NJ.
[0061] For additional comparative purposes, LOCTITE 4310, commercially available from Henkel Corporation, Rocky Hill, CT, was included in Table 2. LOCTITE 4310 contains ethyl
cyanoacrylate, a metallocene and photoinitiator and PMMA, consistent with U.S. Patent No. 5,922,783.
[0062] For instance, the elongating at break (in percent) of Samples A-G and LOCTITE 4310 after cure through exposure to radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum. More specifically, each of the seven samples and LOCTITE 4310 was applied to a transparent mold and exposed to UV light at 365 nm generated from a Fusion UV System equipped with D bulb. The sample was cured for a period of time of 30 seconds per side at an intensity of 100 mW/cm2, generating films with a thickness ranging from 0.025 to 0.034 inches. In addition to elongation at break data, the appearance of the cured composition is also noted in Table 3. Replicates of five specimens were prepared and evaluated for each sample.
[0063] Table 2 below shows observations for a variety of evaluations .
Table 2
Figure imgf000024_0001
[0064] As may be seen in Table 2, the elongation at break for Samples A, B and C is at least 35%. Indeed, Sample A is 35%, while Sample C is 53% and Sample B is 125%. Each of these samples, like the control without plasticizer, cure to a
transparent reaction product. The other samples show an
elongation at break of less than 35%, in fact less than 10% (the highest being 5.6%) and cure to an opaque, phase separated reaction product.
[0065] Additional photocurable cyanoacrylate compositions were prepared from the constituents noted below in Table 3 in the amounts recorded. Each composition also contained PMMA as a thickener in an amount of 6 weight percent and a stabilizer. Table 3
Figure imgf000025_0001
[0066] Each of Samples H-M was applied between interior facing surfaces of a pair of polycarbonate specimens having a length and width of 1 inch and a thickness of ¼ inch. The so formed assembly was exposed to UV light at 365 mm generated from a LOCTITE Zeta 7411-S UV Flood System at an intensity of 30 mW/cm2 for 10 seconds.
[0067] Table 4 below shows observations for a variety of evaluations .
Table 4
Figure imgf000025_0002
[0068] For instance, the elongating at break (in percent) of Samples H-M after cure through exposure to radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum. More specifically, each of the six samples was applied to a transparent mold and exposed to UV light at 365 nra generated from a Fusion UV System equipped with D bulb. The sample was cured for a period of time of about 30 seconds per side at an intensity of 100 mW/cm2, generating films with a thickness ranging from 0.025 to 0.034 inches. In addition to elongation at break data, the appearance of the cured composition is also noted in Table 4, as is block shear strength on polycarbonate specimens and swing test data.
Replicates of five specimens were prepared and evaluated for each sample.
[0069] As may be seen in Table 4, the elongation at break varies depending on whether the plasticizer is acetyl triethyl citrate or CITROFOL II, and whether the amount chosen is on the higher end (e . g. , 25 weight percent or 30 weight percent) compared with the lower end (e . g . , 10 weight percent, 15 weight percent or 20 weight percent) .
[0070] With acetyl triethyl citrate, at a 30 weight percent level an elongation at break of 207% is observed though at 15% that value drops to 28%. With CITROFOL II, at a 25 weight percent level an elongation at break of 101% is observed.
[0071] The block shear strength was measured on polycarbonate substrates after mating the substrates with the samples
therebetween, and exposing the so mated substrates to UV
radiation. Desirably, and as shown in Table 4, reaction
products of the samples show block shear strength on
polycarbonate of greater than about 1800 psi, desirably greater than about 1900 psi, such as greater than about 2200 psi.
[0072] The swing test measurement was made by using a digital multifunctional controller cycle through 180° rotations starting at the 9 o'clock position, where one cycle was rotating
counterclockwise from the 9 o'clock position to the 3 o'clock position, holding there for 1 second, and then rotating clockwise back to the 9 o'clock position, and holding there for 1 second. In this way, the time to perform 60 cycles was measured to be 149 seconds. Each sample that was subjected to the swing test was applied to the outer circumference of PVC tubing over which a Y connector was inserted, and then exposed to UV light emitted from a LOCTITE-branded 405 LED Flood system to cure the Y connector to the PVC tubing. A 1-kg mass was clamped about 1 inch from the end of the PVC tubing on the non- bonded side and was allowed to hang freely for the cycling exercise. The number of cycles at which the PVC tubing
completely detached from the Y connector was noted as the point of failure and recorded.
