[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to U.S. Patent Application No. 62 / 778,901, filed December 13, 2018, and U.S. Patent Application No. 62 / 845,052, filed May 8, 2019, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0002] The present invention relates to compositions suitable for use as coatings. More specifically, the present invention relates to compositions suitable for use as industrial coatings, such as anticorrosion coatings and protective coatings. The present invention relates to compositions and methods for coating substrates. More specifically, the present invention relates to coating compositions and methods for coating substrates, wherein the coating compositions comprise polymerized olefins and cyclic olefins via different chemical transformations. The present invention also relates to methods for applying coatings to substrates.

[0003] The coating compositions of the present invention can be utilized on a wide variety of substrates, particularly those used in petrochemical and chemical manufacturing operations. The present invention has utility in the fields of polymers, materials, and manufacturing. [Background technology]

[0004] Materials deteriorate from interaction with the environment by mechanisms including corrosion, erosion, and other processes. Protective coatings can provide protection against deterioration of the surface properties of a wide range of substrates. Protective coatings can protect metal substrates from corrosion, polymer and composite substrates from ice, acid rain, salt water, weathering, and UV degradation, and wood, concrete, and brick substrates from deterioration due to moisture intrusion and decomposition.

[0005] According to the National Association of Corrosion Engineers International, corrosion is a naturally occurring phenomenon generally defined as the deterioration of a material (usually a metal) resulting from a chemical or electrochemical reaction with the environment. Corrosion can cause severe damage and be very expensive to repair. Protective coatings are an effective method of providing protection from corrosion. Metal corrosion occurs through either chemical or electrochemical reactions. Electrochemical corrosion is the most common form of metal corrosion. Metals such as iron and / or steel begin to corrode and form rust when they come into contact with oxygen and moisture (e.g., humidity, steam, immersion).

[0006] Exposure to water (e.g., groundwater, seawater, atmospheric water, etc.), corrosive chemicals, ultraviolet radiation, ozone, and other harmful agents can cause changes in the quality over time of unprotected surfaces of objects such as, for example, automobiles, buses, boats, trains, other vehicles, aircraft, bridges, signs, buildings, sidewalks, roads, underground pipelines and facilities, and petrochemical and chemical manufacturing facilities, resulting in deterioration or failure of the objects.

[0007] Because corrosion can be very widespread and expensive to repair, effective preventative measures are recommended to prevent corrosion.

[0008] One of the best ways to prevent corrosion is to apply a protective coating, which protects the substrate by preventing contact between it and the harsh environment (air, chemicals, etc.).

[0009] Thus, there has been a continuing need for coating compositions (eg, anti-corrosion coating compositions) that provide surface protection to objects from corrosive materials or damaging environmental conditions.

[0010] Most pipes and pipelines used in petrochemical and chemical manufacturing operations are constructed of metal, typically some grade of steel, and many are insulated. If, during pipe or pipeline installation, the insulating material covering the pipe or pipeline is damaged or deteriorates over time, there is a risk that the underlying surface of the pipe or pipeline will come into direct contact with the atmospheric environment, which can result in a number of problems, including premature failure of the pipe or pipeline, and increased repair and / or replacement costs.

[0011] Therefore, there is a need for an undercoat coating on the pipe or pipeline surface that will be applied between the pipe or pipeline surface and the insulating material and act as a corrosion barrier if the insulating material becomes damaged or deteriorated. This need has led to the introduction of numerous coating compositions intended to protect steel pipelines and structures.

[0012] Epoxy, polyamide, and polyurethane-based coating compositions are widely used to prevent corrosion of steel pipelines and structures.

[0013] The industry has relied on 2K epoxies, but liquid two-part epoxies typically require long cure cycles and are not very conducive to rapid coating operations that facilitate manufacturing.

[0014] Despite the advances made in the art in the field of coating compositions, particularly anticorrosion coating compositions for coating pipelines and structures, there is a continuing need for further improvements. Summary of the Invention

[0015] The present invention is directed to addressing one or more of the aforementioned concerns and relates to coating compositions and methods for coating substrates. The coating compositions of the present invention can be used for a variety of purposes, including, but not limited to, decoration, improving the barrier properties of packaging, protecting substrate materials, which may be metals such as steel, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, iron, nickel, titanium, silver, etc., or non-metals such as glass, concrete, ceramic, porcelain, brick, stone, plastic, rubber, wood, cloth, fabric, or reinforced plastic, composite materials such as electronic assemblies, and / or protecting substrate surfaces from changes in quality over time or degradation due to environmental exposure. In other words, the coating compositions of the present invention can be applied to substrate surfaces to provide protection, including anticorrosion protection, from degradation of the substrate material and / or substrate surface due to environmental exposure.

[0016] The coating composition of the present invention can also be used as an adhesive.

[0017] In particular, the present invention provides a coating composition for coating pipes, pipelines, and structures used in petrochemical and chemical manufacturing operations to provide a corrosion barrier against deterioration of the underlying pipe, pipeline, equipment, structure, or object due to environmental exposure and other corrosive materials. The coating of the present invention provides a protective lining that helps protect the pipe from the harmful effects of corrosion. Pipeline coating is one of the most reliable corrosion protection methods used in industry today.

[0018] The coating compositions of the present invention offer several advantages over prior art materials used to provide protective coatings on pipes, pipelines, equipment, structures, and objects used in petrochemical and chemical manufacturing operations.

[0019] In particular, the coating compositions of the present invention can be formulated to meet a wide variety of application conditions and needs.

[0020] As an example of one advantage, the coating compositions of the present invention are designed to provide long-term corrosion inhibition by acting as an impermeable barrier to oxygen, water, ions, etc. The coating compositions of the present invention are not porous. The coating compositions of the present invention can be applied and cured under higher humidity conditions and at lower temperatures than typical coatings.

[0021] As another example of an advantage, the coating compositions of the present invention can be formulated to have widely adjustable cure times.

[0022] For example, the coating compositions of the present invention may be formulated to cure quickly so that they dry to the touch quickly after application to a substrate surface ("fast cure"). The fast-curing coating compositions of the present invention have a fast dry-to-the-touch time of less than 20 minutes, preferably less than 10 minutes, more preferably less than 1 minute, and even within a few seconds after application to a surface. Articles coated with the fast-curing compositions of the present invention are handleable and have a durable coating in less than 60 minutes, preferably less than 30 minutes, and more preferably 10 minutes or less after application. In comparison, liquid epoxies typically take several hours to cure.

[0023] As another example of an advantage, the coating compositions of the present invention are solvent-free.

[0024] As another example of an advantage, the coating compositions of the present invention are resistant to cracking and spalling in high temperature / humid aqueous environments.

[0025] The coating compositions of the present invention can be prepared by different chemical transformations and processed by a variety of methods.

[0026] In one embodiment, the present invention provides a coating composition that is cured by ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), which comprises reacting at least one cyclic olefin with at least one metal carbene olefin metathesis catalyst.

[0027] The coating compositions of the present invention may also be cured by vinyl / addition copolymerization of cyclic olefins, optionally with at least one linear olefin, with at least one organometallic catalyst (Progress in Polymer Science 84(2018)1-46, Coordination Chemistry Reviews 253(2009)827-861). Organometallic complexes suitable for such vinyl / addition copolymerization of the cyclic olefins of the present invention consist of transition metals, generally late transition metals, typically palladium or nickel, linked by monodentate coordination or by chelating nitrogen, oxygen, or phosphorus ligands. These complexes may be activated by cocatalysts such as methylaluminoxane (MAO), tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, or other Lewis acids.

[0028] Alternatively, the coating composition of the present invention may be cured by free radical polymerization (The Journal of American Science, 4(1), 2008, 1545-1003). Suitable initiators for such radical addition polymerization of the cyclic olefins of the present invention include azo compounds including azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), organic hydroperoxides including tert-butyl hydroperoxide and cumene hydroperoxide, organic diperoxides including benzoyl peroxide and tert-butyl peroxide, alkoxyamines including (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl (TEMPO) and N-tert-butyl-N-(2-methyl-1-phenylpropyl)-O-(1-phenylethyl)hydroxylamine, and boron amine complexes such as triethylborane-1,3-diaminopropane complex and tri-n-butylborane-3-methoxy-1-propylamine complex. Radical cationic initiators may also be used, as well as expensive iodine activators such as diaryliodonium salts and (diacetoxyiodo)benzene.

[0029] In another embodiment, the coating composition of the present invention can be cured by cationic polymerization of at least one cyclic olefin, optionally at least one linear olefin, and at least one radical or cationic initiator (Macromolecules 47 (2014) 5470-5483). Suitable activators for such cationic polymerization of the cyclic olefins of the present invention are Lewis acids including boron trifluoride, aluminum trichloride, titanium tetrachloride, and tin tetrachloride, optionally activated by an initiator including water, hydrogen chloride, and octanoic acid. Suitable organometallic catalysts for promoting the cationic polymerization of the monomers of the present invention are metallocene catalysts including Cp*TiCl3 and Cp2AlMe activated by a Lewis acid including tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane.

[0030] The coating compositions of the present invention can comprise, consist essentially of, or consist of at least one cyclic olefin selected from the group consisting of formulas (I), (II), and (III), optionally at least one linear olefin of formula (IV), at least one coating additive, and at least one curing agent selected from organometallic complexes, free radical initiators, and cationic initiators, preferably at least one metal carbene metathesis catalyst curing agent. The cyclic olefins of formulas (I), (II), and (III), and the linear olefin of formula (IV), have the following structures: [ka] Cyclic olefins of formula (I), (II), and (III), and linear olefins of formula (IV) are described below.

[0031] The present invention also provides a method for coating a substrate material, comprising the steps of: optionally applying an adhesion promoter to the substrate surface; applying to the substrate surface a coating composition comprising, consisting essentially of, or consisting of at least one cyclic olefin selected from the group consisting of Formulas (I), (II), and (III); optionally at least one linear olefin of Formula (IV); at least one coating additive; and at least one curing agent selected from organometallic complexes, free radical initiators, and cationic initiators, preferably at least one metal carbene metathesis catalyst curing agent; and curing the coating applied to the substrate surface.

[0032] The present invention further relates to articles of manufacture made by the methods of the present invention.The articles of manufacture of the present invention have a substrate coated with the cured coating composition of the present invention. Although overlapping with other descriptions, various aspects of the present invention are described below, however, the present invention is not limited to the following. [1] 1.

[0033] Terms and Definitions Unless otherwise indicated, the present invention is not limited to particular reactants, substituents, catalysts, metal carbene olefin metathesis catalysts, catalyst compositions, olefins, cyclic olefin compositions, coating compositions, reaction conditions, etc., as such may vary. It is also understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only, and is not intended to be limiting.

[0034] In this specification and in the claims that follow, reference will be made to a number of terms that shall be defined to have the meaning set forth herein.

[0035] As used herein, the term "alkyl" refers to a straight-chain, branched, saturated hydrocarbon group typically containing 1 to 24 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 12 carbon atoms, and more preferably 1 to 6 carbon atoms: for example, methyl (Me), ethyl (Et), n-propyl (Pr or n-Pr), iso-propyl (i-Pr), n-butyl (Bu or n-Bu), iso-butyl (i-Bu), tert-butyl (t-Bu), octyl (Oct), decyl, and the like.

[0036] The term "cycloalkyl" refers to a cyclic alkyl group, which may be monocyclic, bicyclic, or polycyclic, and typically has 3 to 10, preferably 5 to 7, carbon atoms; common cycloalkyl groups are cyclopentyl (Cp), cyclohexyl (Cy), and adamantyl.

[0037] The term "substituted alkyl" refers to an alkyl that is substituted with one or more substituents, and the terms "heteroatom-containing alkyl" and "heteroalkyl" refer to an alkyl in which at least one carbon atom is replaced with a heteroatom.

[0038] As used herein, the term "alkylene" refers to a difunctional, straight-chain, branched-chain alkyl group, where "alkyl" is defined above.

[0039] As used herein, the term "alkenyl" refers to a straight or branched chain hydrocarbon group of 2 to 24 carbon atoms containing at least one double bond, such as ethenyl, n-propenyl, iso-propenyl, n-butenyl, iso-butenyl, octenyl, decenyl, tetradecenyl, hexadecenyl, etc. Preferred alkenyl groups herein contain 2 to 12 carbon atoms, and more preferred alkenyl groups herein contain 2 to 6 carbon atoms.

[0040] The term "substituted alkenyl" refers to an alkenyl substituted with one or more substituents, and the terms "heteroatom-containing alkenyl" and "heteroalkenyl" refer to an alkenyl in which at least one carbon atom is replaced with a heteroatom.

[0041] The term "cycloalkenyl" refers to cyclic alkenyl groups preferably having from 3 to 12 carbon atoms.

[0042] As used herein, the term "alkenylene" refers to a difunctional straight-chain, branched group, where "alkenyl" is defined above.

[0043] As used herein, the term "alkynyl" refers to a straight or branched chain hydrocarbon group of 2 to 24 carbon atoms containing at least one triple bond, such as ethynyl, n-propynyl, etc. Preferred alkynyl groups herein contain 2 to 12 carbon atoms, and more preferred alkynyl groups herein contain 2 to 6 carbon atoms.

[0044] The term "substituted alkynyl" refers to an alkynyl substituted with one or more substituents, and the terms "heteroatom-containing alkynyl" and "heteroalkynyl" refer to an alkynyl in which at least one carbon atom is replaced with a heteroatom.

[0045] As used herein, the term "alkynylene" refers to a difunctional alkynyl group, where "alkynyl" is defined above.

[0147] It will be understood that the amount of catalyst used in a reaction (i.e., "catalyst loading") will depend on various factors, such as the identity of the reactants and the reaction conditions used. It will therefore be understood that the catalyst loading can be optimally and independently selected for each reaction.

[0183] While the present invention has been described in connection with specific embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the foregoing description and the following examples are intended to illustrate, but not to limit, the scope of the invention. Other aspects, advantages, and modifications within the scope of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art to which the invention pertains.

[0184] experiment In the following examples, efforts have been made to ensure accuracy with respect to numbers used (e.g., amounts, temperatures, etc.), but some experimental error and deviation should be accounted for. Unless otherwise indicated, temperatures are in degrees Celsius (°C) and pressures are at or near atmospheric pressure. Weight percent (wt%) and percent by weight are used interchangeably herein. Weight percent of cyclic olefin compositions were determined from area percent values ​​obtained by gas chromatography.

[0185] GC method used: Column: DB-5, 30 m x 250 μm x 0.25 μm film thickness or equivalent 5% phenylmethylsiloxane, Manufacturer: Agilent; GC and column conditions: Injector temperature: 280 °C, Detector temperature: 310 °C, Oven temperature: Starting temperature: 50 °C, Hold time: 0.5 min, Ramp rate 20 °C / min to 210 °C; Ramp rate 5 °C / min to 240 °C; Ramp rate 20 °C / min to 280 °C, Hold time 2.5 min; Carrier gas: Helium 23.5 mL / min, Split ratio: 20.0:1.0.

[0186] All glassware was oven-dried and reactions were carried out under ambient conditions unless otherwise noted. All solvents and reagents were purchased from commercial suppliers and used as received unless otherwise noted.

[0187] The ruthenium catalysts used in the experimental procedures were prepared using known methods.

[0188] Irganox® 1076 antioxidant (BASF) was used where indicated. Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) was used where indicated. Kraton 1901FG, CAB-O-SIL® Ultrabond, CAB-O-SIL TS610, CAB-O-SIL TS720 (Cabot Corporation), 2-hydroxyethyl bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene-5-carboxylate (HENB), and liquid methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) (sold as Mondur® MLQ) were used where indicated.

[0189] DCPD (Ultrene® 99) The resin was obtained from Ultrene® 99 Tech Corporation. A typical lot of Ultrene® 99 contained DCPD (99 wt%) and TCPD (1 wt%). Modified DCPD-based resins containing 20-25 wt% TCPD (and small amounts of higher cyclopentadiene homologs) were prepared by heat treatment of Ultrene® 99 as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,899,005.

[0190] TCPD was prepared as described in European Patent No. EP0271007B2 and purified to greater than 95% by vacuum distillation.

[0191] Following this procedure, a HNB-DDA / TCPD (70 / 30) blend was prepared. 1-octene (2.2 equiv.) and DCPD (1.0 equiv.) containing a small amount of BHT were transferred to a reactor with a rupture disk rating of 50 psi. The reactor was evacuated and refilled with nitrogen three times. The solution was placed under full vacuum and the reactor was closed. The solution was gently stirred and heated to 170 °C, where it was held for 24 h. The reactor was then cooled to room temperature. The filtrate, consisting of the 1-octene and DCPD starting materials, was flash distilled at 70 °C under high vacuum. Flash distillation at 70-120 °C produced an HNB-enriched fraction. The fraction was further purified in a metal-packed distillation column under high vacuum to yield 98% pure HNB.

[0192] HNB (2.0 equiv.) and DCPD (1.0 equiv.) containing a small amount of BHT were placed in a reactor with a rupture disk rating of 50 psi. The solution was cycled through three vacuum / nitrogen cycles. The solution was placed under full vacuum and the reactor was closed. The mixture was heated to 170°C with gentle stirring. The solution was held at 170°C for 20 hours and then cooled to room temperature. Unreacted HNB and DCPD were recovered by flash distillation at 120°C. The HNB-DDA enriched fraction in TCPD was flash distilled at 160-165°C.

[0193] NBCbSi was prepared according to Polymer Bulletin (1996) 37: 289-295.

[0194] HENB was prepared according to the following procedure: HEA (2-hydroxyethyl acrylate) (640 g, 1.0 mol equivalent) was added to a 3 L round-bottom flask containing toluene (1 kg). DCPD (dicyclopentadiene) (1.5 kg) was added to a separate 3 L round-bottom flask, and the 3 L flask containing DCPD was fitted with a distillation head connected to a Vigreaux column and a condenser. The 3 L flask containing HEA and toluene was connected to a condenser. DCPD was heated to over 160 °C under an inert atmosphere to "crack" DCPD and form CPD (cyclopentadiene). CPD (740 g, 2.0 mol equivalent) was added dropwise to the HEA / toluene mixture at 10-40 °C under an inert atmosphere. The conversion of HEA to HENB (2-hydroxyethyl bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene-5-carboxylate) was monitored by GC (gas chromatography). Toluene and reformed DCPD (364 g) were removed from the reaction mixture by vacuum distillation to give the desired HENB product (1,004 g, quantitative yield, approximately 98% purity) as a colorless liquid.

[0195] NB-Fluorocarbon (2) [ka]

[0196] 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,7,7-Dodecafluoroheptylbicyclo[2,2,1]hept-5-ene-2-carboxylate (39.5 g, 102 mmol) was placed in a 100 mL round-bottom flask equipped with a stir bar under a nitrogen blanket. The flask was placed in an ice-water bath on a magnetic stirrer. Cyclopentadiene (8.87 g, 134 mmol) was added portionwise to the acrylate over a 2-hour period. The mixture temperature rose to 5-10°C. The ice / water bath was removed. The reaction was allowed to stir overnight. The next day, more cyclopentadiene (5 g, 76 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir overnight. The product was purified by short-path distillation under high vacuum (120 mtorr). The distillation was carried out at a head temperature of 60-70°C and the product was collected. Yield: 42 g, 93%. Purity: 99% by GC.

[0197] Following this procedure, a 77 / 23 ONB / TCPD blend was prepared. 1-Decene (3 equivalents) and modified DCPD containing 20-25% tricyclopentadiene (1 equivalent) were combined in a three-neck flask and heated to 160 °C on a heating mantle under argon for 12 hours. The temperature was then increased to 170 °C for an additional 24 hours. After completion of the reaction, residual 1-decene and DCPD were removed from the reaction mixture by vacuum distillation at 70-80 °C. After removal of 1-decene and DCPD, the remaining mixture was heated to 100 °C, and a 3:1 mixture of octylnorbornene:tricyclopentadiene was distilled overhead and collected as a homogeneous liquid. The collected octylnorbornene / tricyclopentadiene liquid mixture was treated with a small amount of butylated hydroxytoluene and stored under argon.

[0198] Low carbon steel, grade ASTM 4130, was purchased from McMaster Carr in 6" x 6" x 1 / 4" panels. Each sheet was ground using a working mix of G18 / G25 steel grinding wheels. The grind profile was 2-3 mils for each sample. After grinding, the steel substrate surface was cleaned with high-pressure compressed air to remove fine particles.

[0201] Preparation of coating formulation The coating formulations of the present invention were prepared by starting with the preparation of a pre-catalyst formulation and then combining a base monomer package with additives. The base monomer package includes at least one cyclic olefin of formula (I), a cyclic olefin of formula (II), and a cyclic olefin of formula (III). At least one metal carbene olefin metathesis catalyst was added to the monomer and additive mixture to form the coating composition described herein.

[0202] The monomer compositions were prepared from mixtures of ENB-DDA / TCPD (70 / 30), HNB-DDA / TCPD (70 / 30), ONB / TCPD (77 / 23), and DCPD / TCPD (43 / 57), respectively, by combining specific amounts of these mixtures to obtain the desired ratios of individual monomers. The monomer mixture of the present invention was first mixed in a plastic cup using a magnetic stir bar for 5 minutes or an overhead high-speed mixer for 1 minute, depending on the target amount of base monomer package, to prepare the base monomer package. The composition of the monomer package [MP] is listed in Table 1. [Table 1]

[0203] When additional comonomers were used, they were added according to the compositions set forth in Table 2. [Table 2]

[0204] The additive package was added to the monomer / comonomer package as described in Table 3 to form the pre-catalyst formulations tabulated in Table 4. Irganox was added first to the monomer package, followed by Kraton 1901 FG or CAB-O-SIL®. For formulations with Kraton 1901 FG, a high-shear mixer was used at 3000-5000 rpm until a homogeneous Kraton solution was formed in the base monomer package (45 minutes to 1.5 hours). For formulations with CAB-O-SIL®, a high-speed overhead mixer with a Cowles blade was used to disperse the fumed silica at 350-2000 rpm for 20-30 minutes until no agglomerates were visually observed in the dispersion. Formulations with comonomer were made by adding 10 wt. % comonomer (formulations contained only 90% base monomer package) using a high-speed mixer at 600-800 rpm for 2-3 minutes. A dispersant (W980 from BYK), a silane coupling agent (A174 from Momentive Performance Materials), or dicumyl peroxide (from Sigma-Aldrich) was then added. Fillers such as aluminum paste (STAPA 4 nl from EcKart Effect Pigments), mica-like iron oxide (MIOX SG from Kish Co.), aluminum powder (120 atomized aluminum powder from EcKart Effect Pigments), or ceramic particulates (W-410 from 3M) were then slowly added to the homogenized dispersion using a plastic scoop or spatula, and the formulation was continuously mixed in a high-speed mixer at 850-1100 rpm until filler addition was complete. The formulation with monomer, comonomer, rheology modifier, dispersant, coupling agent, peroxide, and filler was further mixed at 1800-2000 rpm for 15-20 minutes to ensure no agglomeration of the rheology modifier or filler occurred. Finally, HENB / MDI or NBCbSi was added to the mixture, which was then degassed in a FlackTek high-speed mixer for 3 min at a rotation speed of 500–1600 rpm. [Table 3]

[0205] The precatalyst formulation was prepared at room temperature. [Table 4-1] [Table 4-2]

[0206] A catalyst suspension (2 phr in mineral oil) was added to all formulations in Table 4. Catalyst C827 was used in all examples unless otherwise indicated. The catalyst formulations were simultaneously mixed and degassed using a FlackTek high-speed mixer at 1000 rpm for 30 seconds to form the uncured coating compositions.

[0207] Several commercially available coating samples were purchased and tested under the same conditions for comparison. These commercial formulations are listed in Table 5. The commercial samples were prepared according to their manufacturer's guidelines, applied to metal panel substrates, and tested in an adhesion pull-off test. [Table 5]

[0208] General Procedure for Coating Metallic Substrate Panels Metal panel surface treatment (NACE SSPC SP10 standard) Carbon steel panels (6 in x 6 in x 1 / 4 in, 4 in x 4 in x 1 / 4 in, and 1 in x 8 in x 1 / 4 in) were ground using a steel grinding wheel according to NACE SSPC SP10 standards with a surface profile of 2-3 mils. The uncured coating composition was then applied onto the panels within 4 hours after sandblasting.

[0209] For low-viscosity coating compositions, yellow silicone adhesive tape (from Airtech Industries) was used to construct a dam around the edge of the previously ground panel to prevent leakage. 12.50 g of coating composition was then dispensed onto the panel to achieve a theoretical wet film coating thickness of 30 mils. Higher viscosity formulations (including Kraton 1901FG and CAB-O-SIL) were applied directly onto the panel using a film applicator to a wet film thickness of 20-25 mils. The coating composition was allowed to gel at ambient temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour and then cured in an oven at 150°C for 1 hour. Some examples using the C931 catalyst were cured at room temperature.

[0210] The thickness of the dry film coating was measured using an Elcometer ultrasonic thickness gauge. A total of three measurements were taken for each coating.

[0211] Testing of coated steel panels Pull-off adhesion test per ASTM D4541 This test method covers the procedure for evaluating the pull-off strength (commonly referred to as adhesion) of a coating system from a metal substrate. The main components of a pull-off adhesion tester are a pressure source, a pressure gauge, and an actuator. During operation, the flat side of the pull stub (dolly) adheres to the coating being evaluated.

[0212] Prior to adhesion testing, an industrial-grade 2K epoxy adhesive was prepared by mixing the two components in a 10:4.4 ratio in a FlackTek SpeeedMixer. Glass beads (0.5–0.6 mm) were incorporated into the adhesive to maintain the adhesive bondline thickness between the metal dolly and the cured coating. Test areas were prepared on the cured coating by scoring using a 14 mm diameter circular hole saw, forming an isolated 14 mm diameter coated circle with the exposed steel surface around the perimeter of the circle. The aluminum (14 mm) dolly was ground in the same manner as the carbon steel substrate, and the coated circle was roughened using sandpaper (100 grit).

[0213] Epoxy adhesive was then applied to the roughened dolly, covering the roughened base of the dolly. The dolly was then carefully placed on the coating circle, ensuring that the dolly was perfectly perpendicular to the substrate. Excess adhesive was carefully removed to prevent adhesion to the bare substrate surrounding the dolly. The coating, including the dolly, was cured at 75°C for 4 hours to ensure complete cure of the epoxy adhesive. Three test areas were used per coating. The dolly was then peeled from the coating using an automated PosiTest adhesion tester. Adhesion strength was reported as the average of three adhesion values ​​required to completely peel the dolly from the coating.

[0214] Hot water immersion test according to ASTM D870 This test covers the basic principles and operating procedures for testing the water resistance of coatings by partial or complete immersion of coated specimens in distilled or demineralized water at ambient or elevated temperatures.

[0215] The cured coating was placed in a sealed water bath. The water bath was then filled with deionized water, completely submerging the cured coating. The temperature was increased to 95°C. After 7 days, the panels were removed from the water bath. Visual observations were made to identify any changes in the coating after testing. Peel adhesion tests (ASTM D4541) were also performed on the panels according to the procedure described above. Adhesion performance data for the coated panels before and after hot water immersion are shown in Table 7. Qualitative failure morphology was recorded to identify the failure mechanism: A = adhesive failure of the coating to the steel substrate; C = cohesive failure of the coating; G = adhesive or cohesive failure of the epoxy resin between the coating and the dolly. Peel strength data are presented using a ranking system, as described in Table 6. [Table 6] [Table 7-1] [Table 7-2]

[0216] Reverse impact strength (effect of rapid deformation according to ASTM D2794) This test method demonstrates the effect of rapid impact on the integrity (resistance to cracking and delamination) of organic coatings. A Gardner Universal Impact Tester with a maximum drop height of 48 inches and a drop weight (ball and indenter combination) of 4 pounds was used to test the resistance to deformation of cured coatings. Care was taken to ensure that the drop weight fell freely through a calibrated vertical gravity tube (with slots for raising and lowering the drop weight) attached to the impact tester. Selected coating formulations and commercial coatings were applied to bare 3" x 5" x 0.032" carbon steel Q panels using a film applicator at a 20 mil wet film thickness. The coating formulations and commercial coatings were cured according to the procedures described in the previous section and in the technical data sheets, respectively. Once cured, the Q panels were placed on the magnetic holder of the impact tester, with the bare metal surface in contact with the drop weight. The drop weight was raised to different heights within the gravity tube of the tester, starting at the 25" mark on the gravity tube, and released onto the panel. The drop weight was released from different heights (above and below 25 inches) (depending on performance at 25 inches) until the coating showed no damage (crazing, cracking, peeling). The reverse impact height of the coating was recorded as the maximum height that damaged the coating. Additionally, the reverse impact strength of the coating was calculated as the maximum height that damaged the coating times the drop weight. Higher values ​​(in-lb) indicated better impact performance. The reverse impact strength data are listed in Table 8. Some formulations showed much higher reverse impact strength than the comparative products. [Table 8]

[0217] Mandrel Bend Testing per ASTM D522 The following test provides a general procedure for testing the flexibility and resistance to crazing, cracking, or delamination of organic coatings under strain or extension.

[0218] Selected coating formulations and commercial coatings were applied to milled 1 in. x 8 in. x 0.25 in. carbon steel strips using a film applicator with a wet film thickness equivalent to 20 mils. All coatings were cured according to the procedure described above. A custom-made electric hydraulic mandrel bend tester (Model FRMB1X-1HP from Partech) was used to bend the coated metal strips. Prior to using the equipment, the machine's hydraulic reservoir was filled with approximately 9.5 gallons of medium-weight petroleum-based hydraulic oil (R&O or AW32). One at a time, mandrels with different radii (3.5 in. (most aggressive) to 50 in. (least aggressive)) were placed into the tester's mandrel holder. One coated metal strip was placed on the curved mandrel so that the coating was exposed to air and the milled metal side was in contact with the mandrel. To prevent slippage of the strip on the mandrel, the strip was firmly secured at one end with a "hold-down" bolt. The strips were mechanically bent at fixed speeds on different mandrels by manually pulling the machine's directional control valve. The results were recorded as the minimum mandrel radius that did not damage the coating. Lower mandrel radius values ​​indicated improved coating flexibility performance. Mandrel bending test data are listed in Table 9. Formulation F43 showed better flexibility at much lower mandrel bending radii than the comparative products. [Table 9]

[0219] Heat / dry heat aging test Carbon steel panels (6 in x 6 in x 1 / 4 in, 4 in x 4 in x 1 / 4 in, and 1 in x 8 in x 1 / 4 in) were ground using a steel grinding wheel according to NACE SSPC SP10 standards with a surface profile of 2 to 3 mils. The uncured coating composition was then applied to the panels within 4 hours after sandblasting. The coating was then cured at 150°C for 1 hour unless otherwise specified. The cured panels were then placed in a forced air oven heated sequentially to 190°C and 205°C. The panels were removed from the oven, cooled to room temperature, and inspected periodically. The time at which the first crack was observed in the coating was recorded. [Table 10] [Table 11]

[0220] The addition of fillers to the formulation generally improved the hot / dry heat aging performance of the coatings. However, the addition of STAPA 4 nl aluminum paste in the formulation showed a significant improvement in the hot / dry heat aging cracking performance of the coatings across a wide range of monomer compositions.

[0221] QUV testing according to ASTM G154 In general, the UV stability of a coating composition can be improved by adding appropriate UV absorbers and UV light stabilizers to the coating. Alternatively, a UV-resistant top coat can be applied over the coating to provide protection against UV degradation. In addition, pigmentation and fillers can also improve the UV resistance of clear coatings.

[0222] Monomer package composition MP3 was used in the testing. Table 12 lists the coating compositions with different fillers and pigmentation. The coatings were applied to bare 3" x 5" x 0.032" carbon steel Q panels using a film applicator. The coating formulations were cured at 150°C for 1 hour according to the procedure. [Table 12]

[0223] The cured panels were then placed in a QUV test chamber for testing according to the modified ASTM G154 Cycle 1 method. The only modification from ASTM G154 Cycle 1 was the cycle duration. UVA exposure was performed for 12 hours and condensation was performed for 2 hours per cycle. The panels were removed after 22 cycles and checked for changes in the coating (discoloration, cracking, peeling). No cracking or peeling was observed, but differences in discoloration were observed. Table 13 summarizes the results. The addition of fillers or pigmentation was shown to improve the UV resistance of the coating. [Table 13]

[0224] Multi-component spray experiments for fast-curing systems Component A in the multi-component spray experiments used a coating formulation consisting of the MP3 monomer from Table 1 and the AP33 additive package from Table 2, while component B in the multi-component spray experiments used 0.15 wt.% C627 catalyst and 0.65 wt.% C931 catalyst in a mineral oil suspension. A Binks Century External Mix Gel Coat System (Model CX2017HC) was used as the multi-component spray equipment. The ratio of component A to component B was 100:3. The environmental conditions during multi-component spraying were 55°F and 50% relative humidity. The article used for multi-component spray coating was a carbon pipe with a 2-inch diameter and a 12-inch length. The surface preparation was sandblasted according to SSPC SP10 with a 2-3 mil surface profile. A 14-16 mil coating was applied to the carbon steel pipe in a single coat using the Binks multi-component spray equipment. No sagging or dripping was observed after the high-film-thick liquid coating was applied to the substrate. The multiple component spray combined with a fast-reacting catalyst achieves a rapid dry-to-touch time of less than 3 minutes, and the spray-coated article can be easily handled in less than 10 minutes.

[0225] In comparison, commercially available phenolic epoxy coating systems, such as those listed in Table 5, require premixing of two resin and curing components and spraying via conventional spray equipment. Each coat requires at least 4 to 8 hours of air drying to become tack-dry, and two coats are required to achieve the required dry film thickness. Furthermore, these commercially available phenolic epoxy coating systems have a pot life of only 2 to 3 hours once the resin and curing components are mixed. Furthermore, unused portions must be discarded, whereas multi-component spray systems eliminate the pot life issue by simply mixing the resin and catalyst externally as needed.

[0226] Preparation of adhesive formulations The adhesive coating formulations of the present invention were prepared by starting with the preparation of a pre-catalyst formulation and combining a base monomer package with additives. The base monomer package includes at least one cyclic olefin of formula (I), a cyclic olefin of formula (II), and a cyclic olefin of formula (III). At least one metal carbene olefin metathesis catalyst was then added to the monomer and additive mixture to form the coating composition described herein.

[0227] The monomer compositions were prepared from mixtures of TCPD / DCPD (25 / 75), TCPD / DCPD (40 / 60), TCPD / ONB / DCPD (57 / 30 / 13), and ONB / TCPD (60 / 40), respectively, by combining specific amounts of these mixtures to obtain the desired ratios of individual monomers. The monomer mixture of the present invention was first mixed in a plastic cup using a magnetic stir bar for 5 minutes or an overhead high-speed mixer for 1 minute, depending on the target amount of base monomer package, to prepare the base monomer package. The composition of the monomer package [MP] is listed in Table 14. [Table 14]

[0228] The additive package was added to the monomer / comonomer package as described in Table 15 to form the pre-catalyst formulations tabulated in Table 16. Irganox was added first to the monomer package, followed by Kraton 1901 FG or CAB-O-SIL®, if utilized. For formulations with Kraton 1901 FG, a high-shear mixer was used at 3000-5000 rpm until a homogeneous Kraton solution was formed in the base monomer package (45 minutes to 1.5 hours). For formulations with CAB-O-SIL®, a high-speed overhead mixer with a Cowles blade was used to disperse the fumed silica at 350-2000 rpm for 20-30 minutes until no agglomerates were visually observed in the dispersion. Finally, the other additives were added to the mixture, which was then degassed in a FlackTek high-speed mixer at 500-1600 rpm for 3 minutes.

[0229] A catalyst suspension containing 0.7-1.2 wt. % ROMP catalyst in a white mineral oil carrier was added to all formulations in Table 16 at 2 phr based on formulation weight. Catalyst C827 was used in all examples. The catalyst formulations were simultaneously mixed and degassed using a FlackTek high-speed mixer at 1000 rpm for 30 seconds to form the uncured adhesive compositions. [Table 15] [Table 16]

[0230] General procedure for preparation of lap-shear specimens surface preparation Lap shear specimens were prepared according to ASTM D1102-05 and ASTM D3161. Lap shear panels were prepared by grinding using steel grit before use. The adhesive bond thickness was set at 0.005 inches with either glass beads, steel wire, or shim tabs.

[0231] Once the lap shear specimen surfaces are prepared, the formulations listed in Table 16 are applied to the surfaces listed in Table 17. [Table 17]

[0232] Bonded lap shear samples to be subjected to different cure profiles as described in Table 18. [Table 18]

[0233] Lap shear specimen testing Overhead Tensile Lap Shear Testing per ASTM D1102-05 or ASTM D3161 This test method encompasses a procedure for evaluating the overhead lap shear strength of bonded metal or plastic substrates. Data was collected using a universal testing machine with Lab Works software. Lab shear strength was reported as the average of the required three to five values. [Table 19]

[0234] The adhesive performance data for the lap shear specimens is shown in Table 20. The peel strength data is presented in a ranking system as described in Table 19. [Table 20]
