preparation example Construction

[0032] The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the crosslinking agent of the invention. More specifically, the aminoplast resin (a) and the carboxylic acid compound (b) are usually combined with a suitable strong acid as catalyst and optionally a suitable solvent in a suitably equipped reaction vessel. Any suitable solvent may be used, with aromatic solvents being used in most cases. Examples of suitable aromatic solvents include xylene, toluene, and mixtures of these solvents. Examples of strong acids suitable for use as catalysts include, but are not limited to, p-toluenesulfonic acid, dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, and dodecylbenzenedisulfonic acid. Conventional condensation techniques well known in the art can be used. The reaction mixture is heated to a temperature of 90°C to 160°C, typically 100°C to 140°C, and maintained at that temperature for a time sufficient to obtain an ungelled product having a Tg of at least 10°C. The reaction is terminate...

Embodiment 1

[0061] Into a two-liter four-necked reactor equipped with a thermometer, mechanical stirrer, nitrogen inlet, and by-product (methanol) removal, 640.0 parts by weight of (methoxymethyl)melamine-formaldehyde resin (available from Cytec Industries, Inc.'s CYMEL 303), 488.0 parts by weight of benzoic acid and 1.00 parts by weight of p-toluenesulfonic acid. The mixture was heated to 135°C and maintained at that temperature while methanol by-product was removed from the system. The progress of the reaction was monitored by measuring the IR spectrum and the acid value of the mixture, and the progress of the reaction was terminated when the end point was detected. The final product does not contain any hydroxyl groups and has an acid number of less than about 15 as shown by the IR spectrum. The product obtained was a pale yellow solid with a softening temperature of about 29°C.

Embodiment 2

[0063] To a two liter four-neck reactor equipped with a thermometer, mechanical stirrer, nitrogen inlet, and by-product (methanol) removal, 640.0 parts by weight of CYMEL 303, 610.0 parts by weight of benzoic acid, and 1.20 parts by weight of p-toluenesulfonic acid were added. The mixture was heated to 135°C and maintained at that temperature while methanol by-product was removed from the system. The progress of the reaction was monitored by measuring the IR spectrum and the acid value of the mixture, and the progress of the reaction was terminated when the end point was detected. The final product does not contain any hydroxyl groups and has an acid number of less than about 15 as shown by the IR spectrum. The product obtained was a pale yellow solid with a softening temperature of about 30°C.

Abstract

A crosslinking agent that is an ungelled reaction product of (a) an aminoplast resin and (b) a carboxylic acid-containing compound wherein the crosslinking agent is essentially free of reactive carboxylic acid groups and has a glass transition temperature of at least 10 DEG C is disclosed. Methods for preparing crosslinking agents are also disclosed.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to crosslinkers based on modified aminoplast resins and powder coating compositions comprising these crosslinkers Background of the invention [0002] In recent years, powder coatings have become increasingly popular due to their inherently low volatile organic content ("VOC"). The low VOC significantly reduces air emissions into the atmosphere during application and curing compared to liquid coatings. [0003] Hydroxyl, carboxyl, carbamate and / or epoxy functionalized resins such as acrylic and polyester resins with higher glass transition temperatures (“Tg”) are often used as the primary film-forming polymers for powder coatings . The higher Tg of such polymers provides powder coatings with particularly good storage stability. However, better powder coating stability is desirable when exposed to extreme temperatures during shipping and / or storage. By "stability" or "storage stability" is meant t...
