Abstract:
A fluorocarbon coating composition comprises a fluorocarbon resin, a dispersant, and a cross-linking agent reactive with the dispersant. The dispersant used in the fluorocarbon coating composition comprises a reaction product of a non-functional acrylic monomer, an amino-functional vinyl monomer, and a hydroxy-functional acrylic monomer. The dispersant has amine functionality from the amino-functional vinyl monomer to aid in dispersion of the fluorocarbon resin in the fluorocarbon coating composition and has hydroxyl functionality from the hydroxy-functional acrylic monomer to enhance cross-linking with the cross-linking agent in the fluorocarbon coating composition. A fluorocarbon coating system comprises a substrate and the fluorocarbon coating composition disposed on the substrate.
Abstract:
An aqueous composition contains an olefinic polymer having an olefin portion that is substantially saturated and anionic functionality imparting water dispersibility. The olefinic polymer can be prepared by reacting a saturated or substantially saturated olefin polymer with a reactant that provides the water-dispersing functionality. The composition can be an adhesion promoter that provides excellent adhesion of subsequent coating layers to olefinic substrates like TPO or an additive in a different coating composition, which may be a curable coating composition, especially a primer composition, to provide excellent adhesion to olefinic substrates like TPO.
Abstract:
An acrylic resin and method of forming the acrylic resin for use in fluorocarbon coating compositions are disclosed. The fluorocarbon coating composition generally comprises a fluorocarbon resin, a cross-linking agent, and the acrylic resin. The acrylic resin comprises the reaction product of (1) at least one non-functional acrylic monomer, (2) at least one epoxy functional acrylic monomer having an epoxy group, and (3) at least one functional acrylic monomer different than (2). At least one amino compound having a cyclic, heterocyclic, alkyl, or heteroalkyl structure substituted with a primary or secondary amine group is reacted with the epoxy functional acrylic monomer (2) such that the primary or secondary amine opens the epoxy group to obtain the acrylic resin having amine functionality and hydroxyl functionality.
Abstract:
A coil coating composition producing a coil coating with excellent properties at a lower peak metal temperature includes (a) a first, branched polyester with an hydroxyl number of at least about 80 mg KOH/g, (b) a second, essentially linear polyester with an hydroxyl number of at least about 44 mg KOH/g, and (c) a crosslinking agent. The branched polyester is prepared by condensation of a polyol component consisting essentially of a flexibilizing diol, a branched diol, and, optionally, a polyol having at least three hydroxyl groups and a polyacid component consisting essentially of one or more aromatic or cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acids and polymerizable anhydrides and esters thereof and, optionally, a polyacid having at least three carboxylic acid groups or poymerizable anhydrides or esters thereof, wherein at least one of the polyol having at least three hydroxyl groups and the polyacid having at least three carboxyl groups or an anhydride or methyl ester thereof is included. The essentially linear polyester is prepared by condensation of a polyol component consisting essentially of a flexibilizing diol and a branched diol and a polyacid component consisting essentially of one or more aromatic or cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acids and polymerizable anhydrides and esters thereof. The branched diols of the first and second polyesters are independently selected from the group consisting of 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol, 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol, 2-ethyl-2-butyl-1,3-propanediol, propylene glycol, neopentyl glycol, and combinations thereof.
