Description

Composition for the production of silicone rubber compounds The present invention relates to a catalyst for the crosslinking of silicone rubber compounds. In particular, the present invention provides a composition for the production of a silicone rubber compound, wherein the composition comprises a catalyst comprising at least two different compounds, which are independently selected from metal salts of carboxylic acids. Furthermore, the present invention provides a use of the catalyst for crosslinking a silicone rubber compound, as well as a use of the composition according to the invention for the production of a silicone rubber compound, in particular for use as a sealant, adhesive, or coating agent. Background of the invention Cold-curing silicone rubber compounds, also known as RTV (room temperature curing) silicone rubber compounds, have long been recognized as custom-made materials with elastic properties. They are commonly used as sealants or adhesives for glass, porcelain, ceramics, stone, plastics, metals, wood, etc., e.g., as joint or sealant compounds in construction and plumbing, or as coating materials, e.g., in the electronics industry (Römpp Chemie Lexikon, CD-ROM, Version 2.0, ed. J. Falbe, Thieme-Verlag, Stuttgart 1999, and Ullmanns Enzyklopädie der Technischen Chemie, 4th edition, ed. E. Bartholome, Verlag Chemie, Weinheim 1982, Volume 21, pp. 511 ff.).In particular, one-component RTV silicone rubber compounds (RTV-1) are used; these are, for example, plastically moldable mixtures of α,ω-dihydroxypolyorganosiloxanes and suitable crosslinkers (also referred to in the field as crosslinking agents or hardeners) that can be stored in the absence of moisture (e.g., in a suitable cartridge) but polymerize at room temperature under the influence of water or atmospheric humidity. Polymerization generally occurs through the condensation of SiOH groups with suitable hydrolyzable SiX groups of the crosslinkers. Depending on the desired chemical and physical properties of the polymerization product, such as the desired degree of cross-linking, solvent resistance, etc., various polyfunctional polymers, e.g., tri- and / or Tetrafunctional crosslinking agents (hardeners) are used together with various difunctional or multifunctional polyorganosiloxane compounds. α,ω-Dihydroxypolyorganosiloxanes are particularly frequently used as difunctional agents. Polyorganosiloxane compounds are used. RTV-1 silicone rubber compounds are classified into acidic (HX = acids, such as acetic acid, etc.), basic (e.g., HX = amines, etc.), and neutral (e.g., HX = alcohols, oximes, etc.) systems based on the leaving groups (HX) released during the hydrolysis of the crosslinker. Currently available RTV-1 silicone rubber compounds generally contain acidic crosslinking systems that hydrolyze to release acetic acid, or neutral crosslinking systems that hydrolyze to release oxime compounds, such as butan-2-one oxime (or methyl ethyl ketoxime, MEKO). For the desired broad range of applications, silicone rubber compounds should adhere to as many surfaces as possible, such as wood, painted wood, varnished wood, metals like steel, aluminum, powder-coated aluminum, glass, plastics like polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyamide, concrete, etc. Furthermore, the silicone rubber compounds should be shelf-stable in a standard cartridge, meaning their properties should not change depending on the storage time, ideally both in a sealed cartridge after filling and in a cartridge that has already been opened and / or partially emptied. Finally, the polymerization product should be transparent or clear after the silicone rubber compound has fully cured (cross-linked). In addition to the appropriate selection of the actual polymer components, such as crosslinkers and polyorganosiloxane, a catalyst is usually added to control the polymerization rate and / or degree of polymerization. This catalyst influences important product properties of the silicone rubber compounds, such as skin formation time (i.e., the time it takes for a complete initial skin to form on an applied compound), tack-free time (i.e., the time after which the compound is no longer tacky), curing time (i.e., the time it takes for polymerization to be complete), etc. For example, the required properties for commercial silicone sealants are a skin formation time of 5 to 15 minutes, a tack-free time of 15 to 120 minutes, and a curing time of a maximum of 7 days for an application with a height of 10 mm.Further information on skin formation time, tack time and curing time can be found, for example, in the "Practical Handbook of Sealants" (3rd edition 1990), published by the German Sealants Industry Association (IVD). Previously, a metal-organic catalyst, such as those commonly used for condensation-curing polysiloxanes, was used as a catalyst for silicone rubber compounds, in particular a catalyst based on an organotin compound, such as an alkyltin carboxylate, especially dibutyltin dilaurate and dioctyltin dilaurate. However, such organotin compounds exhibit toxicological properties that have led to restrictions on their use in commercially available products (see EU Directive 76 / 769 / EEC of 28 May 2009). Alternatively, in the prior art, a different catalyst, which does not include an organotin compound, has been used for the crosslinking of polysiloxanes. For example, a titanium-based compound can be used as a catalyst, as described in EP 1 230 298 A1 and EP 2 290 007 A1. However, it is known that a titanium-based catalyst can lead to yellowing and / or surface stickiness in the products, as well as exhibiting a slow vulcanization rate, insufficient storage stability, and incompatibility with common aminosilane-based adhesion promoters. Furthermore, EP 1 230 298 A1 describes a catalyst based on amines and metal salts of tin, zinc, iron, lead, barium, and zirconium, as well as on tin chelates. This catalyst leads to products with a slight yellowing, but according to EP 2-290 007 A1, it is a slow catalyst. Therefore, EP 2 290 007 A1 proposes a catalyst based on metal compounds of groups I and II, i.e., Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Cu, Ag, Au, Zn, Cd, and Hg, in the form of pure carboxylates, which, upon addition of an acidic co-catalyst in the form of an organic or inorganic acid, yield a product with an acceptable curing profile. EP 2 290 007 A1 describes the use of this catalyst in silicone rubber compounds with crosslinkers (hardeners) that release acidic (acetic acid) or neutral (alcohols or MEKO) compounds upon hydrolysis, particularly using a catalyst consisting of a Li carboxylate or an Sr carboxylate. The use of a catalyst based on Li-, Na-, K-, Mg-, Ca-Sr compounds without the additional simultaneous use of an acidic co-catalyst is described in EP 2 280 041 A1 describes this. It further describes that, in particular, the use of octasolitic lithium or octasolitic strontium in combination with alkoxy, acetoxy, or oximo-RTV-1 yields products with the desired properties. Object of the invention The inventors of the present invention have found, however, that it is not possible to use the known tin-free catalysts described above in conjunction with known silicone rubber compounds optimized using catalysts based on organotin compounds while retaining the optimized product properties of the silicone rubber compounds. Simply replacing a tin-based catalyst with one of the known tin-free catalysts does not yield a product (RTV-1) with the desired properties. It was found that the sealant compounds produced with the known tin-free catalysts exhibit poor adhesion and insufficient storage stability. Furthermore, inadequate curing was observed, particularly with acetate crosslinkers. It is therefore an object of the invention to provide an improved catalyst for to provide silicone rubber compounds that are not only tin-free, but also maintain all the properties desired for RTV-1 in product compositions that have been optimized using catalysts based on organotin compounds. The object of the invention is achieved by the subject matter of the independent claims. Preferred embodiments are the subject matter of the dependent claims.

Through extensive studies, the inventors of the present invention have surprisingly discovered that the problem of the invention can be solved by using a mixture of at least two tin-free compounds with catalytic activity as a catalyst in a silicone rubber compound, instead of a single tin-free compound as in the prior art. Such a mixture of individual catalysts has not been used before, but in addition to its toxicological advantages, it offers the further advantage of being easily adapted to existing compositions.

Detailed description of the invention The present invention provides a composition comprising at least one The composition comprises an organosilicone compound, at least one crosslinking agent, and a catalyst, in particular a catalyst for the crosslinking of silicone rubber compounds, which comprises at least two different compounds selected independently from metal salts of carboxylic acids. The composition according to the invention can be used to produce a silicone rubber compound. The present invention uses a catalyst for the crosslinking of Silicone rubber compounds. The catalyst contained in the composition according to the invention, or used in the application according to the invention, comprises at least two different compounds, which are selected independently of one another from metal salts of carboxylic acids. The catalyst contained in the composition according to the invention, or used in the application according to the invention, is thus a mixture of at least two different compounds, preferably of two to twenty different compounds, more preferably of two to eight different compounds, and particularly preferably of two or three different compounds. The catalyst most preferably comprises exactly two different metal salts of carboxylic acids. These are preferably two metal salts of different metals. The two metal salts of the carboxylic acids in the catalyst are most preferably present in a ratio of the number of metal atoms (numerical ratio) of 2:1 to 1:2, more preferably 1.3:1 to 1:1.3, more preferably 5:4 to 4:5, more preferably 1.2:1 to 1:1.2, even more preferably 1.1:1 to 1:1.1, and most preferably approximately 1:1. Each of the compounds included in the catalyst is a metal salt of one or more carboxylic acids. The term "carboxylic acid" refers to an organic compound, preferably a hydrocarbon, with at least one carboxyl group (-COOH). Preferably, a carboxylic acid comprises a hydrocarbon with 1 to 25 carbon atoms, preferably 5 to 20 carbon atoms, and particularly preferably 6 to 19 carbon atoms. The hydrocarbon of the carboxylic acid can be saturated, unsaturated, or aromatic, or comprise corresponding bonds. The hydrocarbon of the carboxylic acid can comprise a straight-chain or branched hydrocarbon chain, and / or rings of hydrocarbons and / or suitable heteroatoms. Preferably, the A carboxylic acid is a saturated hydrocarbon (alkane) comprising a straight-chain or branched hydrocarbon chain. The carboxylic acid can contain one or more The carboxyl groups comprise, preferably one, two, or three carboxyl groups. Monocarboxylic acids and dicarboxylic acids are particularly preferred. In dicarboxylic acids, the two carboxyl groups are bonded to adjacent carbon atoms. Monocarboxylic acids are particularly preferred. One particularly preferred carboxylic acid is 2-ethylhexanoic acid. A "metal salt of a carboxylic acid" within the meaning of this invention is a compound comprising at least one carboxylate anion and at least one metal cation. The carboxylate anion is defined as the anion formed by deprotonation of a carboxyl group of a carboxylic acid. Thus, a carboxylate anion within the meaning of this invention is an organic compound, preferably a hydrocarbon, with at least one carboxylate group (-COO), which can be formed from any of the carboxylic acids described above. The metal cation is a cation of the respective metal, preferably in an oxidation state that is stable under the conditions of application. Accordingly, the metal cation preferably has a positive charge of +1 to +4, more preferably +1, +2, or +3. Examples of a monovalent metal cation are K+, Li+, and Na+.Examples of a divalent metal cation (charge +2) are Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, and Zn²⁺, and an example of a trivalent metal cation (charge +3) is Bi³⁺. For a charge-neutral compound, the charge of the metal cation can be balanced by the number of monovalent negatively charged carboxylate groups, so that the ratio of metal cation to carboxylate group in the metal salt can be 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, etc., up to the maximum charge, depending on the charge of the metal cation. For example, in the case of monocarboxylic acids, the ratio of metal to carboxylic acid is 1:1 for monovalent metal cations, 1:2 for divalent metal cations, 1:3 for trivalent metal cations, etc. In dicarboxylic acids with two carboxylate groups, the ratio is adjusted accordingly, so that, for example, in the case of divalent metal cations, the ratio of metal to dicarboxylate can be 1:1, etc. The metal salt can They contain carboxylate anions of a single carboxylic acid, or carboxylate anions of several different carboxylic acids. For example, the metallic salt of a divalent metal cation can contain a carboxylate anion of a first carboxylic acid (R1-COO~) and a carboxylate anion of a different second carboxylic acid (R2-COO ). In addition to the metal cation and carboxylate anion(s), the metal salt of a carboxylic acid can also contain other components, such as other anions that do not Carboxylate anions are, for example, halide anions, nitrate anions, sulfate anions or the like, or neutral molecules, for example, solvate molecules, or the like.

All measurements were carried out under conditions of 23°C and 50% relative humidity. To determine the skin formation time, the time was measured at which a complete layer of solidified material (skin) was observed on the surface of a sample strand. To determine the stickiness time, the time was measured at which the surface of a sample strand no longer exhibits stickiness. To determine early stress resistance, a 10 mm high silicone strip was applied to a metal strip. The load-bearing capacity was tested by bending the strip at a 90° angle. The time it took for the silicone strip to remain rigid without tearing was recorded. To determine complete curing, the sealant was applied to a thickness of 4 mm on a glass plate, and the time it took for the sealant to cure through to the glass plate was measured. To determine surface cross-linking (notch strength), a 10 mm high strip of sealant is applied to a glass plate. After 24 hours under standard conditions (21 to 25°C; 40 to 60% relative humidity), a notch is pressed into the surface. After 10 seconds, it is checked whether the indentation is reversible. The appearance was determined by organoleptic examination. The Shore A hardness was determined using a Zwick-Roell measuring instrument (reference: ASTM D 2240; DIN 53505; ISO 868). For this purpose, the respective sealant sample was applied at a thickness of 10 mm and stored for 7 days under standard conditions (23°C / 50% RH).
