Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of powder coatings, in particular to a low-temperature curing two-coating and two-baking powder coating. Background Art

[0002] As a new type of environmentally friendly coating, powder coating has been widely used in the field of modern industrial coating. Compared with traditional solvent-based coatings, powder coating does not contain organic solvents, reduces the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), is environmentally friendly, and also avoids the fire hazard caused by solvent volatilization. In addition, powder coating has a high coating efficiency and can be applied by a variety of construction methods such as electrostatic spraying and fluidized bed dipping, which can realize automated production and reduce labor costs.

[0003] However, there are still some problems in the actual application of powder coatings on the market, among which low adhesion is a more prominent disadvantage. In many application scenarios, such as metal furniture surface coating, building decoration material surface protection, etc., the adhesion between the coating and the substrate directly affects the service life and protective effect of the coating. When the adhesion is insufficient, the coating is prone to shedding and peeling, which not only affects the appearance, but also makes the coated object lose protection, reducing its performance and service life.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a low-temperature curing two-coat and two-bake powder coating. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a low-temperature curing two-coat and two-bake powder coating.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A low-temperature curing two-coat and two-bake powder coating: composed of the following components in parts by weight: 52-56 parts of modified epoxy resin, 22-24 parts of polyamide curing agent, 26-30 parts of polyester resin, 25-28 parts of composite filler, 1-3 parts of leveling agent, 2-3 parts of accelerator, and 0.5-0.8 parts of brightener.

[0008] As a further technical solution, the modified epoxy resin preparation method is:

[0009] γ-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane and bisphenol A epoxy resin were mixed in a mass ratio of 1-2:12, stirred at 120° C. for 2 hours, and cooled to room temperature to obtain a modified epoxy resin;

[0010] The epoxy value of the bisphenol A epoxy resin is 0.45-0.55 eq / 100 g; the stirring speed during stirring is 200-300 r / min.

[0011] As a further technical solution, the composite filler preparation method is:

[0012] Calcium carbonate, talcum powder and bentonite are mixed in a mass ratio of 40%, 30% and 30%, and then stirred with a silane coupling agent in a mass ratio of 100:3 in a high-speed stirrer at a speed of 1800r / min for 30 minutes, and then 2% of the total mass of stearic acid is added and stirred for 40 minutes to obtain.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the leveling agent is an acrylic leveling agent with a number average molecular weight of 13500, a glass transition temperature of -22°C, and a surface tension of 25.5 mN / m.

[0014] As a further technical solution, the accelerator is a mixture of a silane coupling agent and a titanate coupling agent, and the mass ratio of the two is 1:1.

[0015] As a further technical solution, the brightener is nano mica powder.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the method for using the powder coating comprises the following steps: (1) preparing primer powder, (2) preparing topcoat powder, and (3) a two-coating and two-baking process.

[0017] As a further technical solution, the primer powder is prepared as follows:

[0018] The modified epoxy resin, polyamide curing agent, accelerator and 60% by weight of composite filler are mixed in proportion, melt-extruded through a twin-screw extruder at 85-100° C. and a screw speed of 30 r / min, and crushed and sieved to obtain a primer powder.

[0019] As a further technical solution, the topcoat powder is prepared as follows:

[0020] The polyester resin, the remaining 40% of the composite filler, the leveling agent and the brightener are mixed, and then melt-extruded through a twin-screw extruder at 102-105° C. and a screw speed of 45 r / min to obtain a top coating powder.

[0021] As a further technical solution, the two-coating and two-baking process is:

[0022] After spraying the primer, cure at 100°C for 10 minutes;

[0023] After topcoat spraying, cure at 115°C for 5 minutes;

[0024] The electrostatic spraying process is adopted, the spray gun voltage is 60-80kV, and the spraying distance is 15-20cm.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] The low-temperature curing two-coat two-bake powder coating provided by the present invention has a significant improvement effect in terms of adhesion, wear resistance and other properties. The silane functional group in the γ-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane in the modified epoxy resin is hydrolyzed to form a silanol group, which can undergo a condensation reaction with the hydroxyl group on the surface of the substrate to form a covalent bond, thereby enhancing the adhesion between the coating and the substrate. At the same time, the modified epoxy resin forms a denser three-dimensional network structure when the coating is cured, thereby improving the hardness and strength of the coating and improving the wear resistance.

[0027] One end of the silane coupling agent in the composite filler reacts with the hydroxyl group on the filler surface, and the other end interacts with the resin matrix to establish a connection between the filler and the resin, enhance the interfacial bonding force, make the filler better dispersed in the resin, improve the uniformity and stability of the coating, and thus enhance the adhesion. Calcium carbonate, talcum powder and bentonite have a certain hardness and wear resistance. After treatment, they can more effectively exert their physical properties, fill the microstructure of the coating, and increase the wear resistance. Stearic acid reduces filler agglomeration and makes the filler distribution more uniform, which helps to improve the overall performance of the coating.

[0028] The two-coat and two-bake process includes the preparation of primer powder, the preparation of topcoat powder and the specific two-coat and two-bake operation. The primer powder contains modified epoxy resin, polyamide curing agent, etc., which is tightly bonded to the substrate after spraying and curing, providing a basis for the topcoat. The primer curing process allows the coating and substrate molecules to diffuse and penetrate each other, enhancing adhesion. The topcoat powder contains polyester resin, leveling agent and brightener, etc., which is sprayed and cured on the basis of the primer to form a smooth, flat surface with a certain hardness. The topcoat curing improves the coating structure and makes it more dense and uniform. The two-coat and two-bake process allows the coating to form a multi-layered structure with each layer tightly bonded, improving the overall adhesion of the coating and its ability to resist external friction and wear, and significantly improving wear resistance.

[0029] In summary, the present invention effectively improves the adhesion and wear resistance of the low-temperature curing two-coat and two-bake powder coating through the synergistic effect of modified epoxy resin, composite filler treatment and two-coat and two-bake process.
