摘要:
A thermosetting protective and/or decorative coating composition that includes a co-reactable solid, particulate mixture of a film-forming material that includes a copolymer containing functional groups and a crosslinking agent having at least two functional groups that are reactive with the functional groups in the copolymer. The film-forming material makes up from 20 to 95 wt. % and the crosslinking agent makes up from 5 to 80 wt. % of the composition. The composition is applied as a coating and cured, forming a bicontinuous morphology where the film-forming material and the crosslinking agent form separate phases resulting in a low gloss coating as indicated by a specular gloss measurement of not more than 10 gloss units measured at 60° with an appropriate instrument. A method of coating a substrate using the composition, substrates coated using the method, and a multi-component composite coating composition that includes the composition are disclosed.

A thermosetting composition that includes a co-reactable solid, particulate mixture of a film forming material having functional groups and a crosslinking agent having at least two functional groups that are reactive with the functional groups in the film forming material. The crosslinking agent includes a copolymer having at least 30 mol % of alternating structural units of a residue from a donor monomer and a residue from one or more acrylic acceptor monomers. The thermosetting composition may coat a substrate by coalescing the composition to form a continuous film and curing the composition. The thermosetting composition may be included as part of a multi-component composite coating composition that includes an optional primer coat, a base coat deposited from a pigmented film-forming composition, and a transparent top coat applied over the base coat, where either the base coat, the transparent top coat, or both, are deposited from the thermosetting composition.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method for producing a copolymer and a copolymer product of the method. The copolymer is prepared by a controlled radical polymerization process, typically an atom transfer radical polymerization process, in which polymerizable alkene monomers are polymerized in the presence of a halogenated polyolefin macroinitiator. The copolymer product of this process is useful in a film-forming composition that adheres strongly to polyolefinic substrates and to which non-polyolefinic film-forming compositions strongly adhere. The copolymer can be applied to a substrate in an adhesion-promoting layer or can be incorporated into a film-forming composition, such as a primer, that contains additional resinous compounds.
