Problems solved by technology

The curing of powder coatings on heat sensitive materials such as wood, plastic, and the like has been limited by the fact that the extrusion of a mixture of a resin and a low temperature curing agent, i.e., one that is active at 200.degree. F. or less, would cause the coatin

Example

The coating powder of Example 16 is the same as that of example 1 except for the addition of 0.1 part by weight of an optical brightener to both Components A and B. The coating powder of Example 17 is the same as that of Example 16 except for the addition of 1.0 part by weight of IRGAFOS 168 anti-oxidant to both Components A and B of the powder of Example 16. The coating powder of Example 18 is the same as that of Example 16 except for the addition of 1.0 part of IRGANOX 1425 to both Components A and B of the powder of Example 16. A coating powder of Comparative Example 1 is the same as the powder of Example 16 except for the addition of 1.0 part of IRGANOX 1098 to both Components A and B of the powder of Example 16. The powders of Examples 9 and 16-18, as well as the powder of the Comparative Example were deposited by a hand-operated tribocharging gun on to a surface of a 0.5 inch thick wooden panel whose temperature was about 230.degree.-250.degree. F. and then cured at 300.degree...

Abstract

[Wood] A heat sensitive substrate is [electrostatically] coated with a thermosetting powder coating system in which a mixture of a self-curing epoxy resin and a catalyst therefore is extruded and pulverized and a low temperature curing agent [are both] a pulverized and the powders are blended with conventional additives to make a coating powder which is deposited on [a wooden] the substrate and heated to cure. The mixture of resin and catalyst does not cure within the extruder but it is made to cure at low temperatures by the separate addition of the curing agent. A small amount of the low temperature curing agent, insufficient to cause substantial curing during extrusion may be used in place of the catalyst.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONThis invention relates to a two-component powder coating system by which the curing of a coating occurs at a significantly faster rate and / or at a significantly lower temperature and produces an exceptionally smooth surface. This invention also relates to thermally stable powder coating whereby white coatings do not yellow during thermal curing. This invention also relates to the electrostatic coating of metal and, in particular, to the triboelectric coating of wood with a coating powder and low temperature curing of that coating having a pleasing smoothness.Traditionally, coating powders have been made by the extrusion of a mixture of resins and curing agents to obtain a homogeneous mixture and then grinding the extrudate and screening the comminuted product to obtain the desired particle sizes and particle size distribution. The powder is then electrostatically sprayed onto a substrate, traditionally a metal substrate, and cured at temperatures much high...
