Abstract:
A method of coating a substrate is disclosed in which a non-aqueous composition is applied to the substrate and then exposed to UV-A light until the composition is substantially cured. The non-aqueous composition comprises an unsaturated (meth)acrylate polymer or oligomer, reactive diluents, one or more photoinitators, an optional solvent or mixture of solvents, and up to 15% by weight of a flattener. A coating is formed having an 85° gloss of less than 15.

This invention relates to aminoplast crosslinker resins compositions based on at least partially alkylated reaction products A of melamine, formaldehyde and an alkanol with the following parameters: the ratio of the amount of substance n(CH2O) of combined formaldehyde to the amount of substance n(Mel) of melamine is in the range of from 5.6 mol/mol to 6.2 mol/mol, the ratio of the amount of substance n(RO) of alkyl ether groups in the crosslinker resin to the amount of substance n(Mel) of melamine is in the range of from 5.0 mol/mol to 5.6 mol/mol, the mass fraction of monomer in the resin, calculated as the ratio of the mass of monomer m(1) to the mass m(A) of the reaction products A is between 35% and 55%, to a process for their preparation, and to a method of use thereof as crosslinker in combination with hydroxy-functional polymers for coating of heat-sensitive substrates.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a process for forming a reinforced ultraviolet (UV) radiation-curable composite. The composite may be formed by applying reinforcing layers and resin layers to a substrate. The resin composition may include an aliphatic urethane acrylate oligomer, a polyfunctional acrylate monomer, and a photoinitiator. The composite formed on the substrate may be exposed to UV radiation to cure the composite on the substrate. The composite may be characterized in that it is cured within 10 minutes of exposure to UV radiation and does not exhibit oxygen inhibition effects, such as, for example, surface tack. The reinforced UV-curable composite may find utility, for example, as a rapid field repair patch in aerospace applications, among others.
