Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a road paving composition and a colored paving coating composition. [Background technology]

[0002] In recent years, due to the diversification of traffic conditions, sidewalks and bicycle paths that are clearly distinguished from roadways have been increasingly constructed. By using colored pavement for such pavement, the roadway can be clearly distinguished from the bicycle path or sidewalk by coloring. Colored pavement is mainly made using water dispersions of acrylic resin or polyester resin. Patent Document 1 discloses a road paving composition that can be applied at room temperature, develops sufficient strength soon after application, and enables efficient formation or repair of pavements. The road paving composition contains an aqueous dispersion in which a resin (A) having a specific acid value is neutralized with a basic compound, and a silane coupling agent having an alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and an amino group, and serves as a binder for aggregates in road paving or a surface layer of a pavement. The road paving composition can be applied at room temperature, develops sufficient strength soon after application, and enables efficient formation or repair of a pavement. Polyamide resins are also known as resins that are expected to bond strongly to aggregates and improve the water resistance of coating films. Patent Document 2 discloses an aqueous dispersion that is substantially free of emulsifiers or surfactants and can provide a polyamide resin coating film having good adhesion, flexibility, chemical resistance, and heat-resistant adhesion, and that has excellent dispersion stability even at room temperature and a small particle size sufficient to form a dense coating film, the aqueous dispersion containing a specific amount of dimer acid as a dicarboxylic acid component and a dimer acid-based polyamide resin having a specific acid value and a specific number average particle size dispersed in an aqueous medium, the aqueous dispersion containing a specific basic compound and substantially free of a specific aqueous dispersing aid.

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2005-126998 A [Patent Document 2] JP 2011-094072 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In the technique described in Patent Document 1, the abrasion resistance of the pavement may be insufficient. In addition, when using the polyamide resin described in Patent Document 2, it is expected that the amide bond will firmly bond with the aggregate and improve the abrasion resistance, but there are cases in which further improvement in abrasion resistance cannot be seen by adding a hardener. The present invention relates to a road paving composition having abrasion resistance. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The present invention relates to the following [1] to [4]. [1] A road paving composition comprising a polyamide emulsion (A) and an epoxy silane coupling agent (B). [2] The road paving composition according to [1] above, further comprising silica sand. [3] A colored pavement coating composition, comprising the road pavement composition according to [2] above, further comprising a pigment. [4] A method for paving a road, comprising the steps of mixing a polyamide emulsion (A) with an epoxy silane coupling agent (B) and applying the resulting mixture to a pavement surface. Effect of the Invention

[0006] According to the present invention, a road paving composition having abrasion resistance can be provided. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0007] [Road paving composition] The road paving composition of the present invention contains a polyamide emulsion (A) and an epoxy silane coupling agent (B). According to the above, a road paving composition having abrasion resistance can be obtained. Furthermore, this technology can be applied to provide a colored paving coating composition. Although the detailed mechanism by which the effects of the present invention are obtained is unclear, it is believed that part of it is as follows. For example, when an amine-based silane coupling agent is used, the carboxylic acid of the polyamide and the amine of the silane coupling agent cannot form an ionic bond, and the curing reaction via the polyamide does not occur, so it is speculated that no improvement in abrasion resistance was observed. In the present invention, by using an epoxy-based silane coupling agent, the epoxy group and the carboxylic acid terminal are covalently bonded by the epoxy ring-opening reaction, and the curing reaction via the polyamide proceeds. Therefore, it was found that the abrasion resistance is also improved.

[0008] [Polyamide emulsion (A)] The polyamide emulsion (A) is an O / W type emulsion in which the polyamide (a1) is dispersed in an aqueous medium. The aqueous medium is a dispersion medium in which water accounts for the largest proportion by mass. From the viewpoint of abrasion resistance, the water content in the aqueous medium is preferably 60 mass% or more, more preferably 75 mass% or more, and even more preferably 90 mass% or more, and 100 mass% or less.

Furthermore, examples of the esterification products of monobasic fatty acids having unsaturated bonds include esterification products of the above monobasic fatty acids having unsaturated bonds with aliphatic alcohols, preferably aliphatic alcohols having 1 to 3 carbon atoms. The polymerized fatty acid, which is a polymer obtained by polymerizing a monobasic fatty acid having an unsaturated bond or an ester of a monobasic fatty acid having an unsaturated bond, is preferably a polymer containing a dimer as a main component. For example, a polymer of an unsaturated fatty acid having 18 or more carbon atoms is commercially available that has a composition of 0 to 10 mass% of a monobasic acid (monomer) having 18 carbon atoms, 60 to 99 mass% of a dibasic acid (dimer) having 36 carbon atoms, and 30 mass% or less of a tribasic acid or more having 54 carbon atoms (trimer or more).

By containing two or more polyamines with different structures in the amine component, the orientation of the amide groups between polyamide molecules can be adjusted. This can reduce the amount of crystallization and hydrogen bonds caused by intermolecular interactions of polyamide, and is therefore considered to be able to suppress the aggregation of the dispersion. Furthermore, by containing two or more polyamines with different structures, it is possible to lower the softening point of the polyamide, and the desired softening point can be easily adjusted. Note that, when the amine component is made of a single type, the polyamide tends to have a high softening point.

[0052] [Table 2]

[0053] Example 1 <Paint preparation> In a 1 L stainless steel beaker, 100 g of an aqueous dispersion of polyamide emulsion Em1 obtained in Production Example 9, adjusted to a solid content of 20% by adding deionized water, 4.3 g of acrylic emulsion (PEGAL 809, manufactured by Koatsu Gas Kogyo Co., Ltd.) as a film-forming aid, 133 g of Toyoura silica sand (manufactured by Toyoura Silica Mining Co., Ltd.), and hardener B1 (epoxy-based silane coupling agent, manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.: KBM-402) were placed and mixed for 10 minutes at 200 rpm using a mixer equipped with a turbine-type mixing blade to obtain a paint composition for road paving. <Coating film preparation> The obtained paint was applied to a slate board (test piece sold by AS ONE Co., Ltd.; slate board) in an amount of 10.5 g (1.0 kg / 1.0 m) 2 ) was applied and smoothed with a rubber spatula. It was then left to dry at room temperature for 2 hours. The process of applying 10.5 g of paint and drying was repeated three times in total, resulting in three layers. After that, the coating was left to dry at room temperature for three days to prepare a coating film sample.

[0054] <Wear resistance test> The prepared coating sample was fixed to an abrasion resistance tester (AB-201 Sutherland type ink lab tester, manufactured by Tester Sangyo Co., Ltd.), and a weight of 3090 g was placed on the top of the base on which sandpaper (#40 cloth sandpaper, manufactured by Trusco Nakayama Co., Ltd.) was fixed to the friction surface, and a load of 7.8 kN / m was applied to the sample. 2 The tester was operated and the sandpaper was replaced with a new one and the abrasion debris removed from the sample every 1000 times, for a total of 3000 abrasions. The weight loss before and after abrasion was measured and recorded as abrasion resistance. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0055] <Pot life evaluation> 10 g of the prepared paint was placed in a 105 ml polyethylene container (Sampler Container, manufactured by Sanplatec Co., Ltd.) and left to stand at room temperature for 1 hour. After standing, the container was gently turned sideways to allow the paint to flow. If the paint reached the top of the container opening within 20 seconds, it was deemed to have passed the test, and the container was left to stand for another hour at room temperature. The time when the paint no longer reached the top of the container opening within 20 seconds was regarded as the pot life. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0056] Examples 2 to 8 Except for the type of curing agent or the amount of curing agent used being as shown in Table 3, coating materials were prepared, coating film samples were prepared, and abrasion resistance tests were carried out in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0058] Comparative Example 1 Except for not using a curing agent, a coating material was prepared and a coating film sample was prepared and subjected to an abrasion resistance test in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0059] [Table 3]

[0060] From Table 3, it can be seen that the road composition of the present invention, which combines a polyamide emulsion with a specific curing agent, has excellent abrasion resistance. Furthermore, when a polyamide is used in combination with a curing agent, a decrease in pot life can be a problem. The road paving composition of the present invention has a good pot life, even though a curing agent is used in combination.
