Abstract:
The invention pertains to aqueous dispersed, crosslinked microgel polymers useful as a polymeric binder in protective coatings. The microgel polymeric binder comprises epoxy-acrylic graft copolymer dispersed into water, emulsion copolymerized monoethylenically unsaturated monomer, and emulsion copolymerized divinyl benzene adapted to crosslink in the emulsion copolymerization step with the monoethylenic monomers to produce the crosslinked microgel polymer particles. The microgel polymer is particularly useful as binder for can coatings adapted to be heat cured to form a protective film.
Abstract:
A protective paint coating containing a polymeric binder having both hydrophobic and hydrophilic moieties in the polymeric structure comprises an acrylic-graft terpolymer. The terpolymer comprises aliphatic-modified glycidyl acrylate and epoxy resin coreacted with diphenol to form the terpolymer. Ethylenically unsaturated monomers, including carboxyl monomers, are in-situ copolymerized in the presence of the terpolymer to produce the acrylic-graft terpolymer. The aliphatic-modified glycidyl acrylate component of the terpolymer comprise the reaction product of a glycidyl acrylate and a branched aliphatic ethylenic monomer having a branched chain of 2 to 20 carbon atoms. The branched aliphatic chain and the carboxyl functionality provide the self-contained wetting agent properties to the polymeric binder structure.

Abstract:
A process for non-aqueous copolymerization of ethylenically unsaturated monomers including carboxyl functional monomers in the presence of epoxy resin by in-situ copolymerization is improved by utilizing a catalyst (initiator) combination of less than 2% peroxide and between 0.05% and 0.1% phosphonium catalyst. The carboxyl functional polymer can be aminated and dispersed into water to produce a protective coating composition useful for interior surfaces of beer and beverage cans.

Abstract:
Provides new and improved water-reducible coating compositions and methods of making them. Three preferred processes are disclosed. These differ in the manner of incorporating and chemical nature of an extender polymer.Broadly, the process of the invention is one for forming an aqueous dispersion of a fluent resinous composition ofa. a mixture in an organic solvent of(i) an ionizable graft polymer of an epoxy resin and an addition polymerized resin, the addition polymerized resin being bonded to aliphatic backbone carbon atoms of the epoxy resin by carbon-to-carbon bonds, and(ii) an extender resin;b. an aqueous vehicle, andc. an ionizing agent;the ionization present from said combined components being sufficient to establish the components as a dispersion in the aqueous vehicle, and then addition polymerizing a quantity of addition polymerizable monomer, under addition polymerizing conditions, in said aqueous dispersion, the aqueous dispersion serving as a vehicle therefor.In another aspect of the invention, a grafting base is produced by advancing an aromatic epoxy resin in the presence of at least one extender resin and a sufficient amount of an organic solvent to render the initial mixture and grafting base product fluent.
Abstract:
An improved electrocoating composition can be produced by first reacting an isocyanate terminated prepolymer with a minor amount of peroxide to provide a polyurethane polymer blocked with pendant peroxide groups, and then coreacting acrylic monomers with minor amounts of other ethylenically unsaturated monomers in the presence of the preformed polyurethane-peroxide polymer to provide polyurethane copolymer with said monomers. The resulting polyurethane acrylic block copolymer can contain carboxyl or amine groups for dispersing into a dilute aqueous solution and provide an anodic or cathodic electrocoating composition.

A water-dispersed paint coating composition particularly useful for plastic substrates such as polystyrene foam comprises a polymeric binder of a functional acrylic copolymer and epoxy resin. Preferably, the epoxy resin is a coreaction product containing sorbitol. The polymers are water-dispersed and are adapted to cure and crosslink at ambient temperatures.
Abstract:
A fluorinated-silicone-acrylic terpolymer useful as a binder in powder coatings is prepared by step-wise synthesis. The process comprises reacting silicone resin with a fluorinated component to produce a fluorinated silicone resin followed by further reaction with hydroxylated acrylic prepolymer to form the flourinated-silicone-acrylic terpolymer.
