Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of coatings, and in particular relates to an easy-to-release powder coating for a weld of a food can and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Powder coating is a solid coating made of solid resin as the main raw material, with the addition of additives, fillers, pigments, etc. It does not contain solvents and water, and has the advantages of safety, non-toxicity, and high raw material utilization rate. It is widely used in the fields of shipbuilding, pipelines, automobiles, wood, plastics, etc. It is also ideal for coating barrels and cans of various foods, beer, beverages and aerosols. Currently, it is increasingly used in beverage cans, food cans, and aerosol cans.

[0003] At present, most of the food cans on the market are metal cans. Due to the large variety of food in the cans, direct contact between the food and the inner wall of the food can will lead to a decrease in the quality of the food in the can, which will lead to safety and hygiene problems. At present, the more effective treatment method is to apply a layer of coating on the inner wall of the food can to avoid direct contact between the food and the inner wall of the food can. Food safety has now become the focus of people's attention. Metal cans for food are in direct contact with food, and their inner wall coatings have attracted widespread attention from the whole society. The coating formed by the coating inside the metal can for food should adhere well to the inside of the container and have sufficient chemical resistance to avoid reacting with the food contents or leaching into the food contents to cause the food to produce peculiar smell or discoloration, deterioration, and threaten people's health. Suitable powder coatings can also be used on seals, can ends, and on the outside and inside of cans, drums or containers that are in direct contact with food and alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages; the coating can also be used to protect the seams of the container (for example, in three-piece cans used in the food industry).

[0004] Chinese patent CN112745745A discloses a food-grade coating powder coating, including polyester resin, HAA, TGIC, benzoin, wear resistance agent, anti-yellowing agent, sand grain agent, organic soil, titanium dioxide, carbon black. Chinese patent CN101932665A discloses a powder composition, an amorphous and COOH-functional first polyester obtained from IPA and / or TPA and up to 10 mol% of neopentyl glycol (NPG); (B) a second optional COOH-functional polyester obtained from an aliphatic diacid and an aliphatic diol, and (C) a curing agent containing a functional group capable of reacting with the COOH of the polyester.

[0005] In addition to the above, the coating should also have a good demoulding effect so that the food can be better separated from the food can. However, the demoulding effect of the current food can powder coating is poor. For example, the coating used for the inner wall of the luncheon meat demoulding empty can on the market is epoxy phenolic aluminum powder coating. In order to make it easy to pour out the luncheon meat can after the easy-open lid is opened, it is necessary to add more polyethylene modified micropowder with demoulding effect to the epoxy phenolic aluminum powder coating to make the inner wall coating surface very smooth so that the minced meat in the can can be separated from the empty can under the action of external force. However, the surface of the epoxy phenolic aluminum powder coating is very smooth, which will make the micropowder coating on the empty can weld not covered, and the adhesion between the empty can weld patch coating is not strong, which seriously affects the overall anti-corrosion effect or demoulding effect of the demoulding empty can coating layer.

[0006] The current solutions to the powder coating re-coating effect on the welds of empty cans are not ideal: one is to use the surface coating to leave gaps for the base coating, so that the powder coating only covers the base coating, which makes defective construction difficult and the anti-corrosion effect of the empty can coating layer is not ideal; the second is to reduce the proportion of polyethylene micropowder with demoulding effect in the demoulding coating, that is, to reduce the surface slipperiness of the coating to achieve the purpose of strong bonding with the powder coating. The disadvantage is that the fat content in the luncheon meat must be increased to ensure the demoulding effect.

[0007] In view of this, it is necessary to propose a new easy-to-release powder coating for the weld of food cans. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to solve some or all of the problems existing in the prior art and to provide a powder coating for food can welds that is easy to demould. The powder coating does not contain solvents and volatile toxic substances, is safe and non-toxic, and at the same time, the coating formed by the powder coating is smooth and dense, has good adhesion, impact strength and toughness, and can be well combined with different types of primers and powder re-coating coatings at joints after film formation, and can ensure the demoulding effect without affecting the overall anti-corrosion effect, thereby helping to improve the level of food safety.

[0009] To achieve the above object, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0010] In one aspect, the present invention provides a modified polyester resin, wherein the modified polyester resin is prepared by reacting terephthalic acid and diol as monomers; wherein:

[0011] The glycols include ethylene glycol, dihydrocarveol, and guaifenesin.

[0012] In some specific embodiments, the molar ratio of ethylene glycol, hydroxycitronellol and guaifenesin in the diol is 10:0.5-1:0.5-1.8, preferably 10:0.5-0.8:0.8-1.2.

After the reaction reaches an acid value of less than 10 mgKOH / g, guaifenesin is added and the reaction is continued until the acid value is less than 70 mgKOH / g. Then, a polycondensation reaction is carried out until the acid value is less than 60 mgKOH / g to obtain the modified polyester resin.

Compared with traditional polyester materials, the polyester molecules prepared by the invention have more flexible long chain segments and more rigid chain segments in side chains, which reduces the brittleness of the resin after curing, and increases its strength and toughness. The corrosion resistance of the obtained polyester is improved by adjusting the input ratio of each monomer. The polyester is used as a main material of a powder coating, which helps to improve the impact strength and toughness of the coating, has a significant benefit effect on the corrosion resistance of the coating, and increases food safety.

The formed film layer is dense, the adhesion is improved, and it can be well combined with different types of primers and powder coatings at the joints. In addition, it is found that it has a certain gain effect on the wear resistance of the coating.

[0053] In summary, the present invention provides a powder coating for food can welds that is easy to demould. The powder coating does not contain solvents or volatile toxic substances, and is safe and non-toxic. At the same time, the powder coating has a smooth and dense coating, good adhesion, impact strength and toughness, and can be well combined with different types of primers and powder touch-up coatings at joints after film formation, and can ensure the demoulding effect without affecting the overall anti-corrosion effect, which helps to improve the level of food safety.

[0079] Examples 4-7, Comparative Examples 1-2

[0080] Examples 4-7 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 provide a series of powder coatings for food can welds that are easy to release. The difference from Example 1 is that the amounts of guaifenesin and hydroxycitronellol added in the preparation of the polyester resin are different, that is, the ratios of ethylene glycol, hydroxycitronellol, and guaifenesin in the diol are different, as shown in Table 2 for details.

[0083] The powder coatings prepared in Examples 1, 4-7 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were tested for performance. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0084] Table 3

[0085]

[0086]

[0087] As shown in Table 3, the coatings prepared in Examples 1, 5 and 6 have an impact strength higher than 86 kg / cm, and no bubbling, cracking or falling off occurs when immersed in 5% HCl and 5% NaOH solutions, indicating that the coatings prepared according to the components, proportions and methods of the present invention have good impact resistance and acid and alkali corrosion resistance, and are helpful to increase food safety; from the results of Example 1, Comparative Examples 1 and 2, it can be seen that the addition of hydroxycitronellol and guaifenesin to the polyester resin can improve the strength and corrosion resistance of the polyester resin, thereby increasing the performance of the final product coating; by comparing the results of Examples 1, 4-7, it can be obtained that as the content of guaifenesin in the polyester resin increases, it helps to further enhance the performance of the coating, and it can be concluded that the ratio of ethylene glycol, hydroxycitronellol and guaifenesin in the polyester resin is appropriately selected as 10:0.5-1:0.5-1.8.

[0088] Examples 8-11, Comparative Examples 3-4

[0089] Examples 8-11 and Comparative Examples 3-4 provide a powder coating for easily demoulding the weld of a food can. The difference from Example 1 is that different amounts of epoxypropyl 2-methoxyphenyl ether are added during the preparation of the surface-modified silica, as shown in Table 4.

[0095] It can be seen from the data in Table 5 that the adhesion and wear resistance of the coatings obtained in Comparative Examples 3 and 4 are significantly lower than those in Example 1, which shows that the modification of silicon dioxide by glycidyl 2-methoxyphenyl ether not only helps to improve the adhesion performance of the coating, but also has the effect of increasing wear resistance; By comparing Examples 1, 8-11, it can be concluded that in the preparation process of surface-modified silicon dioxide, the optimal dosage ratio of glycidyl 2-methoxyphenyl ether and silicon dioxide is 0.15-0.18:1.
