Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of coatings, in particular to a high-saturation water-based touch-up paint composition, a preparation method of the water-based touch-up paint composition and an application of the water-based touch-up paint composition in product exterior coating. BACKGROUND

[0002] Automobile repair refers to the partial repair or recoating of the outer coating of a car due to accident damage or aging after years of use. Specifically, it is different from the general factory coating production line, and the to-be-coated vehicle model, color requirements are different, and the operation cannot be performed according to the specified process sequence, and the maximum baking temperature cannot exceed 60 degrees Celsius, otherwise the plastic accessories will be damaged.

[0003] Therefore, compared with the original factory paint of the car, the automobile repair paint has significant differences in product composition, application window, etc. For example, the repair paint product contains dozens or even hundreds of color masters, and the appropriate color master needs to be used to complete the color matching according to the actual color of the repaired car, and then the binder (to provide film performance) and the thinner (to provide application performance) are added, and manual stirring, filtering and spraying are performed. For the repair paint product, the color gamut space presented by the complete color master system must be able to cover all the colors of the original factory paint of the car, otherwise the color matching of the repair paint will not match the color of the car body, which will affect the repair and delivery.

[0004] At present, the automobile repair paint market in China is still dominated by solvent-based products. However, with the improvement of people's environmental awareness, the government has introduced a series of environmental protection laws, regulations and policies for the coating industry, and various regions have also introduced specific policies for automobile repair coating, which has effectively promoted the development of automobile repair paint from solvent-based to water-based. On the other hand, in recent years, the pursuit of car color on the automobile market is becoming more and more extreme, and some high-saturation metallic colors have appeared on the market, such as the orange color of Mercedes-Benz DESIGNO and the 27 orange color of Great Wall Automobile. Such colors are bright, pure and high in color saturation, which is the future development trend of car colors. In order to better meet the future environmental protection needs of water-based and the popular trend of car colors, it is particularly important and meaningful to have the technical ability to develop high-saturation water-based transparent color master.

[0005] At present, patents related to the preparation technology of high-saturation transparent color master mainly focus on traditional solvent-based coatings. For example, the U.S. invention patent TRANSPARENT PIGMENT DISPERSION PROCESS (Patent No. 4017448) discloses a preparation process of solvent-based transparent pigment paste, which involves transparent orange. In recent years, China has also applied for invention patents for solvent-based transparent orange automobile repair paint and its preparation method (Application Publication No. CN106675216A).

[0006] However, there is no patent publication related to the preparation technology of high-saturation transparent orange color masterbatch in the field of water-based repair paint so far.

[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new water-based repair paint composition to provide a water-based repair paint composition with pure color and high saturation. SUMMARY

[0107] The preparation steps of the waterborne repair paint composition 3 are as follows:

[0114] (2.b) Then 8.1 kg of mixed materials (5 kg of propylene glycol methyl ether, 2 kg of isopropyl alcohol, 1 kg of SHELLSOL TK, and 0.1 kg of BYK-333 auxiliary agent were uniformly mixed in another 15 L small cylinder) were slowly added, and 1 kg of Twin 4100 was further added, and low-speed dispersion was continued at 200 r / min for 10 min;

[0116] Experiments show that the water-based repair paint composition 3 of the present embodiment has excellent paint film performance and thermal storage stability, fully meeting the industry requirements for repair paint. Since the UH2110 resin used in the present embodiment has a better permeability than the UH2110 resin used in the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1 or the UH2648 / 1 resin used in the water-based repair paint composition 2 of Example 2, the dry-wet film color difference of the water-based repair paint composition 3 of the present embodiment is smaller than that of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1. UH2110 resin of the present embodiment has a better permeability than the UH2110 resin used in the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1 or the UH2648 / 1 resin used in the water-based repair paint composition 2 of Example 2, the dry-wet film color difference of the water-based repair paint composition 3 of the present embodiment is smaller than that of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1. UH2648 / 1, therefore, the dry-wet film color difference of the water-based repair paint composition 3 of the present embodiment is smaller than that of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1.

[0118] In the present comparative example, a comparative water-based repair paint composition 1 is provided, in which the orange pigment of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1 is replaced with an equal amount of an orange pigment of the type Novoperm Orange HL 70 from Clariant Chemicals. Cosmoray Orange L 2950, and the other components are exactly the same as those of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1.

[0119] In addition, the preparation method of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 1 of the present comparative example is exactly the same as that of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1.

[0120] In the same test manner as that of Example 1, the color of the paint film formed by the comparative water-based repair paint composition 1 provided in the present comparative example was tested by a color difference meter after 150 μm doctor blade, and the data shown in Table 5 were obtained.

[0121] Table 5. Color data of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 1 under the doctor blade condition

[0122]

[0123] As can be seen from the comparison of the data in Table 5 and Table 2, the color difference data (3.04) of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 1 of the present comparative example between white and black backgrounds after the doctor blade is much smaller than the color difference data (64.83) of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1, indicating that the transparency of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 1 of the present comparative example is much poorer than that of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1.

[0124] Comparative Example 2

[0125] In the present comparative example, a comparative water-based repair paint composition 2 is provided, in which the UH2648 / 1 resin used in the water-based repair paint composition 2 of Example 2 is replaced with an equal amount of a resin of the type Dispersant equivalent replacement of Ultra PA4550 in the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1 Ultra PX 4585 dispersant, and the rest of the components are exactly the same as the components and contents of the water-based repair paint composition 1 described in Example 1.

[0126] Also, the preparation method of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 1 of the present comparative example is basically the same as the water-based repair paint composition 1 described in Example 1, except that the step of adding

[0127] Within the interval of 10-40min of grinding residence time, the measured D50 particle size data of the color paste of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 2 of the present comparative example is always greater than 300nm, and cannot reach the D50 particle size level (~200nm) in Example 1.

[0128] Comparative Example 3

[0129] In the present comparative example, a comparative water-based repair paint composition 3 is provided, the components of which are exactly the same as those of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1, and the preparation method is basically the same as that of Example 1, except that the NETZSCH NEOS described in Example 1 is replaced by a horizontal sand mill NETZSCH LABSTAR without a pin to perform cyclic grinding, and the other preparation steps are exactly the same as those of Example 1.

[0130] Within the interval of 10-40min of grinding residence time, the measured D50 particle size data of the color paste of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 3 of the present comparative example is always greater than 250nm, and cannot reach the D50 particle size level (~200nm) in Example 1.

[0131] Comparative Example 4

[0132] In the present comparative example, a comparative water-based repair paint composition 4 is provided, which does not contain 15kg of UH2648 / 1 resin and 10kg of 898 resin, and the rest of the components are exactly the same as the components and contents of the water-based repair paint composition 1 of Example 1.

[0133] Also, the preparation method of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 1 of the present comparative example is basically the same as the water-based repair paint composition 1 described in Example 1, except that the step of adding UH2648 / 1 resin and 898 resin.

[0134] The thermal storage stability of the comparative water-based repair paint composition 4 of the present comparative example was tested by the same test method as in Example 1, and the data shown in Table 6 were obtained.

[0135] Table 6. Viscosity, fineness, pH and color change data of comparative waterborne refinish composition 4 at different heat storage time

[0136] Comparative Example 4 Fineness / pm B6 viscosity / mPas Initial state 5 pm 1826 40°C * 2 months 15 pm 7700 40°C * 4 months 50 pm 33900

[0137] As can be seen from the comparison of the data in Table 6 and Table 3, the heat storage stability of the comparative waterborne refinish composition 4 of the present comparative example, which lacks the waterborne polyurethane dispersion, is significantly decreased compared to the waterborne refinish composition 1 of Example 1, and cannot meet the special requirements of the refinish industry for long-term storage.

[0138] Comparative Example 5

[0139] In the present comparative example, a comparative waterborne refinish composition 5 is provided, which is prepared by replacing 15 kg of PU 1035W resin in the waterborne refinish composition 1 of Example 1 with 15 kg of UH2648 / 1 resin and 10 kg of 898 resin, and the other components are the same as those in the waterborne refinish composition 1 of Example 1.

[0140] In addition, the preparation method of the comparative waterborne refinish composition 1 of the present comparative example is the same as that of the waterborne refinish composition 1 described in Example 1.

[0141] Experiments show that, The molecular weight of PU 1035W resin is small, and it contains more hydroxyl hydrophilic functional groups. In the case that the refinish system cannot be further crosslinked, it will have a certain negative impact on the performance of the paint film. The use of The comparative waterborne refinish composition 5 of PU 1035W resin can pass the heat storage stability test at 40°C for 6 months, but the paint film has poor water resistance, and the surface is severely blistered after 10 days of 40°C immersion, and the water resistance of the paint film cannot meet the requirements of the refinish industry.
