Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a composition for preparing a coating comprising a polyaspartic ester and an isocyanate compound.
[0002] The present invention also relates to methods for preparing such compositions, as well as the use of such compositions as protective coatings.
[0003] The present invention also relates to protective coatings comprising the polyaspartic acid compositions.
[0004] In particular, the present invention relates to compositions for preparing coatings having improved flexibility and improved pot life of paint or varnish formulations, the viscosity of which is reduced. [Background technology]
[0005] Coatings containing polyaspartic esters are used primarily for their rapid crosslinking, resistance to abrasion and corrosion, and / or their use in high solids content formulations.
[0006] As an example of these compositions comprising polyaspartic esters, we can cite EP 0573860, which describes compositions comprising a polyisocyanate, a polyaspartic ester and a catalyst. WO 202016292 describes another type of composition comprising at least one polyaspartic ester, at least one isocyanate prepolymer and a catalyst.
[0007] Generally speaking, compositions containing polyaspartic esters have a very short pot life and are very inflexible (elongation at break less than 50%). In addition, some of these polyaspartic acid compositions contain solvents or catalysts that can cause other problems.
[0008] Pot life times are generally improved by: Use a solvent in the composition containing the polyaspartic acid ester that makes it possible to reduce the viscosity of the composition and its crosslinking rate. Generally uses small amounts (less than 30% by weight) of low-viscosity reactive diluents
[0009] The use of a small amount of a solvent or reactive diluent can solve the problem of short pot life, but cannot improve the flexibility of the composition containing the polyaspartic acid ester.
[0010] To solve this particular problem of flexibility, elastomeric isocyanate prepolymer compounds are often added to polyaspartic acid compositions. These isocyanate prepolymers generally have a low NCO content (less than 13%) and a high viscosity (greater than 1500 mPa·s), which limits their application possibilities.
[0011] As a result, these polyaspartic acid compositions generally contain significant amounts of solvents to reduce or control their viscosity and / or improve their pot life, and these solvents are usually volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or sources of such VOCs.
[0012] Furthermore, the addition of catalysts has proven problematic in terms of toxicity to the health of handlers or to the environment.
[0013] Therefore, there is a need to find new isocyanate-based polyaspartic acid compositions that are solvent or catalyst free, flexible (elongation at break greater than 50%), and have low viscosity of the isocyanate moiety (less than 1500 mPa·s).
[0014] The invention therefore provides a composition for preparing coatings which are particularly advantageous in the field of ground coverings or wind power.
[0015] The invention makes it possible to provide a solution to various problems associated with compositions for preparing coatings in the state of the art, in particular problems associated with application difficulties when the composition is too viscous, but also problems associated with the ductility of the coating when it is not sufficiently flexible.

[0084] Silosiv A3 is an additive useful as a molecular sieve.
[0085] Tego Airex 944 is an additive useful as an antifoam agent.
[0086] BYK378 is an additive that is useful as a surfactant.
[0087] All additives, polyisocyanates and resins used in the examples are commercially available products.
[0088] Example 1: Preparation of composition (A) To prepare composition (A), the various products are weighed out according to the proportions shown in Table 1 and then mixed using a Speedmixer until the mixture is homogenized.
[0089] Table 1 shows the proportions of each polyaspartic acid resin and additives for each composition A.
[0090] [Table 1]
[0091] Example 2: Preparation of polyisocyanate composition (B) To produce composition (B), a mixture is prepared according to the proportions set out in Table 2. The polyisocyanate mixture (B) is then homogenized in the mixing unit for at least overnight.
[0092] The NCO content is determined by titration of the -NCO functional group of each compound using a back titration of dibutylamine with a hydrochloric acid solution.
[0093] The viscosity is measured at 25°C using an Anto-Paar viscometer with a cone surface geometry having an angle of 2°. The shear rate during the measurement ranged from 0.1 to 100 s 2 with ascending and descending shear rates. -1 The range is.
[0094] Low viscosity is defined by a viscosity below 1500 mPa·s and sufficient NCO content is defined by a value above 13%.
[0095] Table 2 shows the proportion of polyisocyanate, viscosity and NCO content for each composition B.
[0096] [Table 2]
[0097] As shown in Table 2, compositions B3, B6, B10, B13 and B20 contain 100% of their respective isocyanates and are comparative examples.
[0098] The results show that the viscosity decreases as the amount of Tolonate X-FLO 100 used in composition (B) increases. The use of a proportion of Tolonate X-FLO 100 of 60% or more makes it possible to obtain compositions (B) with a viscosity of less than 1500 mPa·s at 25° C. and an NCO content of more than 13%.
[0099] The comparative examples have an NCO content above 13% but, with the exception of example B6, have a viscosity above 1500 mPa·s.
[0100] Example 3: Stretching of the composition The elongation of the coating obtained from the mixture between composition (A) and polyisocyanate (B) described in examples 1 and 2 is measured. The mixture is carried out using a Speedmixer to ensure good homogeneity, and then the formulation thus obtained is crosslinked for 7 days in an enclosure conditioned at 23°C and 50% humidity. The mixing ratio between composition (A) and composition (B) is defined by an equimolar NCO / NH ratio, i.e. constant and equal to 1. NH functional groups are present in composition (A) and NCO functional groups are present in polyisocyanate (B).
[0101] The elongation measurements are carried out on standardized format specimens (type 5A specimens according to standard ISO 527-2) with a thickness of 1-2 mm using a traction machine (MTS). The traction speed is set at 10 mm / min.
[0102] The elongation at break corresponds to the elongation value reached when the specimen breaks. Samples with an elongation at break of more than 50% are considered to have improved flexibility.
[0103] Table 3 shows the elongation at break results for various Compositions A and B.
[0104] [Table 3]
[0105] As specified in Table 3, compositions B3, B6, B10, B13 and B20 containing polyisocyanate mixtures are comparative examples (comparison). These comparative examples stand out for their low flexibility (elongation at break much less than 50%). Example B6, despite having a low viscosity, could not obtain a sufficient elongation at break (more than 50%). Elongation measurements of the mixtures containing composition B10 could not be carried out because the viscosity of the mixtures was too high to be applied properly.
[0106] The mass proportion of Tolonate X-FLO100 in composition (B) is 60% or more, thereby improving the flexibility of the composition. This effect is even more remarkable when a mixture containing composition (A2) is used.
