Embodiment 1

[0071] Example 1 -The CARBOWAX TM 8000 Polyethylene glycol (150 g) and toluene (360 g) were added to the vessel and dried by azeotropic distillation. The mixture was cooled to 90°C and Desmodur N3600 polyisocyanate (1.36 g) was added to the mixture. The mixture was stirred for 5 minutes, then dibutyltin dilaurate (0.21 g) was added. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour, then Desmodur H (4.15 g) was added. Stirring was continued for a further 1 hour, then cooled to 80°C. n-Decanol (3.91 g) was then added to the mixture and stirring was continued for a further 1 hour. The mixture was cooled to 60°C and the polymer was isolated by rotary evaporation. The ICI and KU viscosities were found to be 2.40 poise and 90.2 Krebs units, respectively. M measured by SEC w 79,000, M w / M n The polydispersity is equal to 3.1.

[0072] Although the types and amounts of raw materials used to prepare the polymers of Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 are the same, the products of Exampl...

Embodiment 2

[0074] Will CARBOWAX TM 8000 A mixture of polyethylene glycol (150 g) and toluene (360 g) was charged to a vessel and dried by azeotropic distillation. The mixture was cooled to 90°C and Desmodur N3600 polyisocyanate (1.81 g) was added to the mixture. The mixture was stirred for 5 minutes, then dibutyltin dilaurate (0.21 g) was added. The mixture was stirred for 1 hour, then Desmodur H (3.94 g) was added. Stirring was continued for a further 1 hour, then cooled to 80°C. n-Decanol (3.91 g) was then added to the mixture and stirring was continued for a further 1 hour. The mixture was cooled to 60°C and the polymer was isolated by rotary evaporation. The ICI and KU viscosities were found to be 2.80 poise and 109.1 Krebs units, respectively. M measured by SEC w 124,000, M w / M n The polydispersity is equal to 4.4.

[0075] Likewise, compared with Comparative Example 2, the ICI / KU viscosity curve of Example 2 is better.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition comprising a hydrophobically modified alkylene oxide polyurethane characterized by having a M w of from 50,000 to about 150,000 Daltons and a polydispersity of 2.5 to about 5.0. The present invention further relates to a multi-step process for the preparation of the hydrophobically modified polymer.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to hydrophobically modified urethane polymers which are useful as rheology modifiers in aqueous coating formulations. Background of the invention [0002] Rheology modifiers can be used in waterborne coating formulations to control viscosity over a wide range of shear rates. They can be associative (they associate with the dispersed phase) or non-associative (they thicken the aqueous phase). Associative thickeners can be derived from natural products such as hydrophobically modified cellulose ethers, or prepared from synthetic polymers such as hydrophobically modified ethylene oxide urethane (HEUR) polymers. A typical description of HEUR polymers and their preparation can be found in US 2009 / 0318595 A1 which describes the formation of linear and a combination of branched HEUR polymers. [0003] U.S. 4,155,892 (Emmons et al.) describes the preparation of linear and branched HEUR polymers in various examples. [0004] Rheology ...
