Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of coating materials, and in particular, to a fast-drying clear varnish for automotive repair and its preparation method. Background Art
[0002] Automotive repair clear varnish is an essential material in the field of automotive repair. Its main function is to form a protective layer on the surface of the vehicle to prevent corrosion, oxidation, and damage to the vehicle body by the external environment. With the rapid development of the automotive industry and the increasing requirements of consumers for the appearance of automobiles, automotive repair clear varnish has played an important role in enhancing the aesthetics, durability, and environmental friendliness of vehicles. Currently, there are a wide variety of automotive repair clear varnishes on the market, covering traditional solvent-based clear varnishes, waterborne clear varnishes, and UV-curable clear varnishes. While meeting different needs, these products have also promoted the technological progress of the entire industry.
[0003] Traditional polyacrylic resins have good adhesion properties, but they cannot withstand the action of dynamic loads for a long time, and also have disadvantages such as poor resistance to organic solvents and brittleness at low temperatures. Polyurethane resins form a dense paint film through the cross-linking of isocyanate groups with hydroxyl groups or other groups, so they have relatively high hardness, better stain resistance and chemical resistance, etc. However, they still have the drawbacks of short storage period and long drying time. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to improve the deficiencies of existing paint materials, the present application provides a fast-drying clear varnish for automotive repair and its preparation method.
[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a fast-drying clear varnish for automotive repair, adopting the following technical solution: A fast-drying clear varnish for automotive repair, comprising the following raw materials in parts by weight: 10 - 20 parts of hydroxyl acrylic resin, 40 - 50 parts of polyether polyol, 40 - 60 parts of isocyanate, 0.1 - 0.3 part of organosilicon additive, 0.1 - 0.5 part of leveling agent, 0.02 - 0.04 part of organotin, 0.03 - 0.05 part of organic amine, 1 - 3 parts of silane coupling agent, 5 - 8 parts of xylene, 5 - 8 parts of butyl ester, and 6.9 - 9.9 parts of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the hydroxyl group of the acrylic resin reacts with the isocyanate group of the isocyanate to undergo addition polymerization to form a polyurethane-acrylate network structure, introducing the acrylic resin into the polyurethane matrix, thereby improving the yellowing resistance and adhesion of the varnish. On the other hand, the acrylic resin can form urethane hard segments in the polyurethane matrix and introduce its own carboxyl group, which can absorb moisture to form hydrogen bonds, shortening the drying time of the paint film. The compounding of organotin and organic amine can improve the curing speed of the paint film without affecting the storage stability. The three solvents with different boiling points, namely propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, butyl acetate, and xylene, are compounded. The low-boiling propylene glycol methyl ether acetate can quickly volatilize to take away heat, promoting the rapid surface formation of the paint film in the initial stage. The medium-boiling butyl acetate balances the volatilization speed, avoiding surface defects caused by too fast surface drying of the paint film. The high-boiling xylene delays the later drying, ensuring the leveling property of the coating, and at the same time preventing pinholes caused by solvent retention, enabling the paint film to have both a relatively fast surface drying speed and good paint film flatness.
[0007] Preferably, the hydroxyl acrylic resin is pre-modified with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane, including the following specific steps: mixing polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane with a solvent, heating under the protection of nitrogen, and then adding a hydroxyl-containing acrylic monomer, N-(isobutoxy)methylacrylamide, and an initiator for heat preservation reaction to obtain polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-modified acrylic resin.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane is introduced into the main chain of the acrylic resin, which can reduce the surface tension of the paint film, improve the roughness and stiffness of the paint film surface, and enhance the initial quick-drying property and hydrolysis resistance of the paint film. Adding N-(isobutoxy)methylacrylamide to the polymerization reaction of acrylic monomers can also react with isocyanate to form a three-dimensional network structure, which can increase the crosslinking degree in the paint system and enhance the quick-drying performance of the paint film.
[0009] Preferably, the reaction temperature is 140 - 160 °C.
[0010] Preferably, the polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane-modified acrylic resin comprises the following raw materials in parts by weight: 5 - 10 parts of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane, 25 - 35 parts of hydroxyl-containing acrylic monomer, 1 - 3 parts of N-(isobutoxy)methylacrylamide, 0.01 - 0.03 parts of initiator, and 30 - 40 parts of solvent.
[0011] Preferably, the hydroxyl-containing acrylic monomer is styrene, isobutyl acrylate, isooctyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate, or acrylic acid.
[0012] Preferably, the mass ratio of styrene, isobutyl acrylate, isooctyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate, and acrylic acid is (1 - 2) : (1 - 2) : (3 - 5) : (3 - 4) : 2.
[0013] Preferably, the polyether polyol is a mixture of polyether triol and polyether diol, and the mass ratio of the polyether triol to the polyether diol is 1 : (3 - 4).
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the polyether triol and polyether diol are compounded. The bifunctional polyether polyol is used to improve the elasticity and elongation at break of the paint film, and the trifunctional polyether polyol is used to improve the tensile strength and hardness of the paint film. The trifunctional polyether polyol can enhance the crosslinking density with isocyanate, thereby reducing the drying time of the paint film.
[0015] Preferably, the organosilicon additive is a hydroxyl-terminated polysiloxane.
[0016] In a second aspect, the present application provides a preparation method for a fast-drying clear varnish for automotive repair, adopting the following technical solution: A preparation method for a fast-drying clear varnish for automotive repair includes the following specific steps: Vacuum-dry the acrylic resin and polyether polyol respectively. Mix the polyether polyol, xylene, butyl ester, isocyanate, and organosilicon additive, then add organotin and organic amine and heat for reaction. Then add the acrylic resin, propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, and silane coupling agent and mix for heat preservation reaction to obtain a fast-drying clear varnish for automotive repair.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, under the synergistic effect of each component of the prepared clear varnish, the drying time of the paint film is significantly shortened, and at the same time, the clear varnish still maintains good weather resistance.
[0018] Preferably, the reaction temperature is 80 - 90 °C.
[0019] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects: 1. Since the present application introduces acrylic resin into the polyurethane matrix, it improves the yellowing resistance and weather resistance of the clear varnish, and at the same time retains the quick-drying performance of the acrylic resin. The combination of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, butyl ester, and xylene with different boiling points promotes the rapid surface drying of the paint film in the initial stage, while preventing pinholes caused by solvent retention, balancing the evaporation rate, and avoiding surface defects caused by too fast surface drying.
[0020] 2. In the present application, the acrylic resin is pre-modified with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane. Introducing polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane into the main chain of the acrylic resin can reduce the surface tension of the paint film, improve the surface roughness and stiffness of the paint film, and improve the initial quick-drying property and hydrolysis resistance of the paint film.
