Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a block polyisocyanate composition, a curable resin composition containing the composition, and a cured product. [Background technology]

[0002] Blocked polyisocyanate compounds are compounds obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate compound with a blocking agent having active hydrogen groups that can react with isocyanate groups. Blocked polyisocyanate compounds are inactivated at room temperature because the isocyanate groups of the polyisocyanate are encapsulated by the blocking agent, but the blocking agent dissociates upon heating, and the isocyanate groups are regenerated. Due to these properties, blocked polyisocyanate compounds are mixed with polyols and curing catalysts to form one-component paint compositions, which are widely used in applications such as paints.

[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 describes a blocked isocyanate composition comprising a blocked isocyanate compound obtained from a triisocyanate compound represented by formula (I) as described in claim 1 of the international publication and at least two types of blocking agents, and a one-component coating composition comprising the blocked isocyanate composition and a polyol. Furthermore, it is stated that the formulation may include two types of blocking agents, an amine compound and a pyrazole compound, and that it may also contain metal salts such as dibutyltin dilaurate or tertiary amines as a catalyst for accelerating curing. Furthermore, the invention described in Patent Document 1 provides a blocked isocyanate composition that has low viscosity and excellent low crystallinity, low-temperature curing properties, and storage stability of the paint.

[0004] Furthermore, for example, Patent Document 2 describes a blocked isocyanate composition comprising a blocked isocyanate derived from a triisocyanate compound represented by formula (I) as described in claim 1 of the published patent, and a blocking agent comprising an amine compound, and a paint composition comprising the blocked isocyanate composition and an active hydrogen compound. Furthermore, it is stated that the amine compound may be a secondary amine compound and may contain a curing-accelerating catalyst such as an amine compound. Furthermore, the invention described in Patent Document 2 provides a block isocyanate composition that maintains good blocking resistance, has excellent curability, and exhibits excellent gloss and image quality when applied as a coating film.

[0006] In the conventional technology described above, even when a blocked polyisocyanate composition containing a blocked isocyanate compound, a polyol, and a curing catalyst is stored at room temperature, the blocked polyisocyanate composition may harden during storage. For this reason, there is a need for a blocked polyisocyanate composition that prevents hardening during storage and exhibits excellent storage stability. Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is to improve the storage stability of a blocked polyisocyanate composition and a curable resin composition containing the composition, to provide a blocked polyisocyanate composition having excellent storage stability and a curable resin composition containing the composition, and to provide a cured product obtained by curing the curable resin composition.

[0137] Calculation method of effective NCO group content (%) The effective NCO group content (%) here quantifies the amount of blocked isocyanate groups that can react with isocyanate-reactive groups present in the blocked polyisocyanate compound, is expressed as the mass (%) of isocyanate groups, and is calculated by the following formula. Effective NCO group content (%) = { (Solid content (mass (%)) of the blocked polyisocyanate compound) × (Mass of the polyisocyanate compound used in the reaction × NCO group content (%) of the polyisocyanate compound used in the reaction)} / (Mass of the blocked polyisocyanate compound) / {Solid content (%)} When diluted with a solvent or the like, the value in the diluted state is described.

[0138] Calculation method of solid content An absolute calibration curve of methyl isobutyl ketone (hereinafter referred to as MIBK) was created by gas chromatography, the content of MIBK in the sample was determined, and the solid content (%) obtained by removing MIBK from the total amount was calculated.

[0139] Composition of the curable resin composition Blocked polyisocyanate compound, compound having isocyanate-reactive groups, curing catalyst, and amine compound were added so that the ratio of active NCO groups (mol): hydroxyl groups (mol): curing catalyst (mol): amine compound (mol) = 1.00:0.95:0 to 0.10:0.15. MIBK was then added so that the ratio of solids (g) of the blocked polyisocyanate compound to solvent (g) = 1.0:1.0. Note that the solvent here includes the solvent used to dilute the blocked polyisocyanate compound. The active NCO groups (mol) and hydroxyl groups (mol) were calculated using the following formula. Effective NCO groups (mol) = Amount of block polyisocyanate compound charged (g) × Effective NCO group content of block polyisocyanate compound (%) ÷ 420² Hydroxyl groups (mol) = Amount of polyol added (g) × Hydroxyl value of polyol (mgKOH / g) ÷ 56.1

[0140] Manufacturing Example 1: Synthesis of MIBK solution (A-1) of tert-butylethylamine (hereinafter referred to as tBEA) block of biuret-type HDI. 500.0 g of biuret-type HDI (Desmodule N3200A, NCO group content: 22.8%), manufactured by Sumika Covestro Urethane Co., Ltd. (NCO groups: 2.59 mol) and 350.0 g of MIBK were charged into a nitrogen-purged 2 L three-port reactor. Subsequently, 274.0 g (2.71 mol) of tBEA (manufactured by Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) was added dropwise at 25°C, stirred at 25°C for 2 hours, and infrared spectroscopy analysis revealed that the isocyanate group was 2270 cm⁻¹. -1 The disappearance of the infrared absorption peak in the vicinity was confirmed. The obtained reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure, and tBEA and some MIBK were removed to obtain 1040.39 g of MIBK solution (A-1) of the tBEA block of biuret-type HDI. The solid content of the obtained tBEA block (A-1) of biuret-type HDI was 72%, and the effective NCO group content was 10%.

[0141] Example 1 To prepare the curable resin composition, the following ingredients were added: 5.00 g of the tBEA block (A-1) of the biuret-type HDI obtained in Production Example 1, 13.6 g of acrylic polyol (Acrylit 6AN6000, manufactured by Taisei Fine Chemical Co., Ltd.), 0.387 g of dibutyltin dilaurate (manufactured by Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), and 0.180 g of tBEA (manufactured by Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.). Furthermore, 2.20 g of MIBK was added so that the amount of solvent was 1.0 times the weight of the block polyisocyanate compound, and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes to prepare the curable resin composition. The prepared curable resin composition was packed 80% into 4 mL screw-cap tubes and stored in a nitrogen atmosphere for one week. After one week, the curable resin composition was evaluated based on whether it had hardened (indicating no storage stability) or remained liquid (indicating storage stability). The results are shown in Table 1. The evaluation results are indicated by "○" for storage stability and "×" for storage instability.

[0142] Examples 2-5, Comparative Examples 1-4 In Example 1, a curable resin composition was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the polyol compound, curing catalyst, and amine compound were changed to those shown in Table 1. In Examples 4 and 5 and Comparative Examples 3 and 4, storage stability was evaluated in the same manner as in Example 1, except that the storage temperature and storage period were changed to those shown in Table 1. The results are shown in Table 1.

B-2: Polyester polyol (P510, manufactured by Kuraray Co., Ltd.) C-1: Dibutyltin dilaurate C-2:2-Bismuth ethylhexanoate D-1: tBEA D-2: Diisopropylamine

[0144] Based on the results of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-4, it was found that the curable resin composition containing the block polyisocyanate compound and amine compound of the present invention exhibits superior storage stability for 1 week to 1 month under the same storage conditions compared to the curable resin composition not containing the amine compound.
