Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to modified polyisocyanates, coatings and painted metal materials. [Background technology]

[0002] Polyisocyanate compounds are highly reactive substances and are widely used as raw materials for chemical products such as polyurethane foams, sealants, adhesives, paints, etc. In recent years, modified polyisocyanates have been developed that have been modified in various ways depending on the functions required of these chemical products.

[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 describes a modified polyisocyanate, a silyl isocyanate obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate with a silane starting material, and discloses that this silyl isocyanate has good adhesion to glass and is useful as a fixing agent to be used in combination with polyurethane resins.

[0004] Furthermore, Patent Document 2 describes a reaction product of an amino-alkylalkoxysilane with a maleic acid ester or a fumaric acid ester, and discloses that this reaction product is useful as a modifier for polyisocyanates.

[0005] Patent Document 3 discloses a crosslinkable silyl group-containing urethane resin mixture obtained by reacting a compound containing two or more active hydrogens and one or more crosslinkable silyl groups in the molecule with an acrylic compound and / or a methacrylic compound, thereby obtaining a compound containing one or more active hydrogens and one or more crosslinkable silyl groups in the molecule, with an isocyanate group-containing urethane prepolymer obtained by reacting an organic polyisocyanate with a polymer polyol under conditions where the isocyanate group is in excess relative to the active hydrogen.

[0006] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 6-212141 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 6-211879 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-323040 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] In recent years, the development of direct-to-metal coating has been anticipated. Direct-to-metal coating is a coating that forms a protective film that combines corrosion resistance and weather resistance by simply applying a single type of paint directly to the metal surface. Metal coating typically involves a multi-layer finish, first applying a primer to inhibit rust and then a topcoat that provides excellent weather resistance and finish. In contrast, direct-to-metal coating achieves the desired performance with a single coat, thereby reducing the number of processes and shortening construction time. However, the corrosion resistance and weather resistance of a coating are generally incompatible, making it difficult to achieve both. Furthermore, nonferrous metals have the problem of poor adhesion and peeling compared to ferrous metals, making it extremely difficult to develop a coating that combines excellent adhesion to nonferrous metals with corrosion resistance and weather resistance.

[0008] The above Patent Documents 1 to 3 disclose various modified polyisocyanates, but do not disclose modified polyisocyanates that are applicable to one-coat paints that also have high adhesion to non-ferrous metals. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The present inventors have conducted extensive research into the above-mentioned problems. As a result, they have arrived at the use of a modified polyisocyanate modified with an alkoxysilane having a primary amino group and a specific unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester or a saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester.

[0044] <Branched alkyl ester or alkyl ester having a cyclic structure which may contain a heteroatom of unsaturated monocarboxylic acid (a2-2)> In the present invention, the branched alkyl ester or alkyl ester having a cyclic structure (a2-2) of the unsaturated monocarboxylic acid, which may contain a hetero atom, is specifically a compound represented by the following formula (3). H2C=CH-C(=O)-OR 6 (3)

[0045] In formula (3), R 6 represents a group in which a heteroatom, such as an oxygen atom, nitrogen atom, or sulfur atom, is contained in the molecule of a branched alkyl group having 3 to 18 carbon atoms or an alkyl group having a cyclic structure, or an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms and a branched or cyclic structure.

For example, a dimethylaminoethyl group corresponds to a group in which the carbon atom at position 3 of an isopentyl group is substituted with -N=. The substitution of the above carbon atoms with heteroatoms (e.g., oxygen atoms, nitrogen atoms, sulfur atoms, etc.) or groups consisting of heteroatoms and hydrogen can occur at one or more positions (e.g., 1 to 3 positions, 1 to 2 positions, or 1 position). The carbon number in a "group containing a heteroatom in an alkyl or arylalkyl group" refers to the number of carbon atoms in the structure in which some of the carbon atoms contained in the alkyl or arylalkyl group are substituted with heteroatoms or groups consisting of heteroatoms and hydrogen (e.g., a dimethylaminoethyl group has 4 carbon atoms). Examples of the group containing a hetero atom in the alkyl group molecule include a tetrahydrofurfuryl group, a phenoxyethyl group, and a dimethylaminoethyl group.

[0047] <Saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3)> In the present invention, examples of the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​include compounds represented by the following formula (4). R 7 -C(=O)-OR 8 (4)

[0051] The saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​is preferably a linear alkyl ester of a carboxylic acid having two or more hydrogen atoms at the α-position, or a branched alkyl ester of a carboxylic acid having two hydrogen atoms at the α-position. Compared with a branched alkyl ester having only one hydrogen atom at the α-position, a carboxylic acid alkyl ester of such a structure is less affected by steric hindrance at the α-position, and is therefore preferred because it allows the reaction with the alkoxysilane (a1) to proceed at an appropriate rate.

[0052] Specific examples of alkyl esters of linear carboxylic acids having two or more hydrogen atoms at the α-position include methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, n-propyl acetate, i-propyl acetate, n-butyl acetate, i-butyl acetate, n-pentyl acetate, i-pentyl acetate, cyclohexyl acetate, 2-ethylbutyl acetate, 2-ethylhexyl acetate, 1-methylpentyl acetate (also known as sec-hexyl acetate), 2-methoxyethyl acetate, 2-ethoxyethyl acetate, 3-methoxybutyl acetate, 3-ethoxybutyl acetate, methyl propionate, and ethyl propionate.

[0062] <Modified polyisocyanate and its manufacturing method> In the present invention, in a first embodiment, the modified polyisocyanate is a reaction product (referred to as modified polyisocyanate (X)) using as raw materials components containing an alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group, an unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2), and a polyisocyanate (a4), and is preferably a modified polyisocyanate in which a secondary amino group of an N-position modified alkoxysilane represented by formula (5) or (6), in which the primary amino group of the alkoxysilane (a1) is added to the unsaturated carbon-carbon bond of the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2), is adducted to the isocyanate group of the polyisocyanate (a4):

[0064] In formula (5), R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and each represents an optionally substituted linear or branched alkyl group, cycloalkyl group, alkenyl group, cycloalkenyl group, alkynyl group, cycloalkynyl group, aryl group, or heteroaryl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms; R 3 is a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and R 4 and R 5 are the same or different and each represents a branched alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms; and n is an integer of 0 to 2.

[0065] [ka]

[0066] In formula (6), R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and each represents an optionally substituted linear or branched alkyl group, cycloalkyl group, alkenyl group, cycloalkenyl group, alkynyl group, cycloalkynyl group, aryl group, or heteroaryl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms; R 3 is a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and R 6 is a group obtained by incorporating a heteroatom into the molecule of an alkyl group having a branched or cyclic structure and having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, or an alkyl group or arylalkyl group having a branched or cyclic structure and having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, and n is an integer of 0 to 2.

[0067] Alternatively, in a second embodiment, the reaction product (referred to as modified polyisocyanate (Y)) is made from raw materials containing an alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group, a saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3), and a polyisocyanate (a4), and is preferably a modified polyisocyanate in which an N-position modified alkoxysilane obtained by reacting an alkoxysilane (a1) with a saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​is an N-position acyl modified compound having a secondary amide group, represented by the following formula (7), and the secondary amide group is adducted to the isocyanate group of the polyisocyanate (a4).

[0068] [ka]

[0069] In formula (7), R 1 and R 2are the same or different and each represents an optionally substituted linear or branched alkyl group, cycloalkyl group, alkenyl group, cycloalkenyl group, alkynyl group, cycloalkynyl group, aryl group, or heteroaryl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms; n is an integer of 0 to 2; R 3 is a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and R 7 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms and having no unsaturated group, or a group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms and having a heteroatom in the alkyl molecule and having no unsaturated group.

[0070] The modified polyisocyanate (X) or (Y) may be produced by simultaneously reacting an alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group, an unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) or a saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3), and a polyisocyanate (a4). However, a preferred production method involves first reacting an alkoxysilane (a1) with an unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) or a saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​to obtain an N-position-modified alkoxysilane having a secondary amino group or a secondary amide group, and then reacting this with a polyisocyanate (a4).

[0071] Manufacturing method of modified polyisocyanate (X): In the modified polyisocyanate (X), the blending ratio of the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group to the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) is preferably within a range of, for example, 0.7 mol or more, 0.85 mol or more, 1.5 mol or less, and 1.25 mol or less of the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) per 1 mol of the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group.

[0072] Furthermore, when the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) in the modified polyisocyanate (X) is a branched alkyl ester (a2-1) of an unsaturated dicarboxylic acid, the reaction ratio of the N-position-modified alkoxysilane having a secondary amino group to the polyisocyanate (a4) is preferably adjusted so that the number of secondary amino groups is 40 moles or less, preferably 3 moles or more and 35 moles or less, per 100 moles of isocyanate groups, in terms of the adhesion of the coating to iron and non-ferrous metals, curing properties, and storage stability of the modified polyisocyanate.

[0073] In the modified polyisocyanate (X), when the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) is a branched alkyl ester or an alkyl ester (a2-2) having a cyclic structure, which may contain a heteroatom of an unsaturated monocarboxylic acid, the reaction of the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group with the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) may produce, as a by-product, a compound represented by the following formula (8) in addition to the N-position-modified alkoxysilane represented by formula (6), and accordingly, a mixture containing the N-position-modified alkoxysilane mixed with unreacted alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group may be obtained.

[0074] [ka]

[0075] In formula (8), R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and each represents an optionally substituted linear or branched alkyl group, cycloalkyl group, alkenyl group, cycloalkenyl group, alkynyl group, cycloalkynyl group, aryl group, or heteroaryl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms; R 3 is a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and R 6 is a group obtained by incorporating a heteroatom into the molecule of an alkyl group having a branched or cyclic structure and having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, or an alkyl group or arylalkyl group having a branched or cyclic structure and having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, and n is an integer of 0 to 2.

[0076] Therefore, in this case, the reaction of the N-position-modified alkoxysilane having a secondary amino group with the polyisocyanate (a4) is carried out in the coexistence of the unreacted alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group and the by-product tertiary amino group-containing compound represented by formula (8).

[0077] In the modified polyisocyanate (X), when the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) is a branched alkyl ester or an alkyl ester (a2-2) having a cyclic structure, which may contain a heteroatom of an unsaturated monocarboxylic acid, the reaction ratio of the mixture containing the N-position-modified alkoxysilane with the polyisocyanate (a4) is preferably adjusted so that the total number of moles of primary amino groups and secondary amino groups per 100 moles of isocyanate groups is 40 moles or less, preferably 3 moles or more and 35 moles or less, in terms of the adhesion of the coating to iron and non-ferrous metals, curability, and storage stability of the modified polyisocyanate (X).

[0078] The reaction of an alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group with an unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) to obtain an N-position-modified alkoxysilane can be carried out at 0 to 110°C, optionally with air blown in. The reaction time varies depending on the temperature, but is typically between 1 hour and 2 weeks. The reaction can be carried out by adding the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) to the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group, or by adding the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group to the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2). To prevent polymerization of the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2), a small amount of a known aromatic polymerization inhibitor such as methoquinone or a nitroso compound such as N-oxyl may be present, if necessary.

[0079] The reaction of the N-position-modified alkoxysilane obtained from the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group and the unsaturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a2) with the polyisocyanate (a4) is not particularly limited and can be carried out under known and conventional reaction conditions. Specifically, the N-position-modified alkylalkoxysilane and the polyisocyanate (a4) are stirred and mixed at 0 to 80°C for 0.1 to 5 hours, either all at once or while being added dropwise. Depending on the desired performance, the N-position-modified alkoxysilane may be added to the polyisocyanate (a4), or the polyisocyanate (a4) may be added to the N-position-modified alkoxysilane. This reaction may also use a Lewis acid catalyst, a basic catalyst, or an organic solvent, as needed. The resulting mixture containing the reaction product may be aged at 0 to 80°C for 1 day to 1 month, as needed.

[0080] Manufacturing method of modified polyisocyanate (Y): In the reaction of an alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group with a saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​to obtain an N-position modified alkoxysilane, the blending ratio of the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group to the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​is preferably within the range of, for example, 0.7 moles or more, 0.85 moles or more, 1.5 moles or less, and 1.25 moles or less of the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​per mole of the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group.

[0081] The reaction of the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group with the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​may be carried out by heating to 100 to 250°C, or by adding a basic catalyst or Lewis acid catalyst at 0 to 160°C. Adding a catalyst is preferable because a basic catalyst is more effective in small amounts. In either case, the reaction may be carried out under pressurized conditions as needed. To suppress coloration, the reaction may be carried out in the presence of a known antioxidant, such as methoquinone. The reaction time varies depending on the temperature and other conditions, but is typically about 1 hour to 3 days. It is then preferable to mix the components all at once or dropwise, and then, if necessary, combine this with aging.

[0082] When a basic catalyst or Lewis acid catalyst is added, it may be added after mixing the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group with the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3), or it may be added in advance to the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group and then mixed with the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3), or it may be added in advance to the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​and then mixed with the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group.

[0083] In the present invention, the modified polyisocyanate (Y) is A step (1) of reacting an alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group with a saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​in the presence of a basic catalyst; Step (2) of adding an acidic compound to the mixture containing the reaction product obtained in Step (1) as needed; and Step (3) of removing a part or all of the alcohol produced as a by-product to prepare an intermediate containing an N-acyl-modified product represented by the following formula (7): Step (4) of reacting the intermediate with polyisocyanate (a4). It is preferably produced by

[0084] [ka]

[0085] In formula (7), R 1 and R 2 are the same or different and each represents an optionally substituted linear or branched alkyl group, cycloalkyl group, alkenyl group, cycloalkenyl group, alkynyl group, cycloalkynyl group, aryl group, or heteroaryl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms; R 3 is a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, preferably 1 to 5 carbon atoms, n is an integer of 0 to 2, and R 7 represents an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms and containing no unsaturated groups, or a group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms and containing a heteroatom such as an oxygen atom, nitrogen atom or sulfur atom in the alkyl molecule, and containing no unsaturated groups.

[0086] By using such a production method, a modified polyisocyanate having excellent adhesion to non-ferrous metals can be easily obtained.

[0087] Examples of the basic catalyst added in step (1) include metal hydroxides such as lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and calcium hydroxide; carbonates such as sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate; bicarbonates such as sodium bicarbonate and potassium bicarbonate; metal alkoxides such as sodium methoxide and potassium t-butoxide; organic metals such as butyllithium; potassium silanolate; ammonia gas, aqueous ammonia, methylamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, and nitrogen compounds such as 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene (DBU) and 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]-5-nonene (DBN). These basic catalysts may be used without dissolving them in an organic solvent, or may be added by dissolving them in advance in a solvent such as water; alcohols such as methanol and ethanol; esters such as methyl acetate and ethyl acetate; or ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, cyclopentyl methyl ether, and trimethyl orthoacetate.

[0088] Examples of the acidic compound added in step (2) include inorganic Bronsted acids such as hydrogen chloride, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and phosphoric acid; organic Bronsted acids such as carboxylic acids, alkylsulfonic acids, arylsulfonic acids, monoalkylphosphoric acids, dialkylphosphoric acids, and arylphosphonic acids; and acyl chlorides such as acetyl chloride and benzoyl chloride. These acidic compounds may be used without dissolving in an organic solvent, or may be added after being dissolved in advance in a solvent such as water; alcohols such as methanol and ethanol; esters such as methyl acetate and ethyl acetate; or ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, cyclopentyl methyl ether, and trimethyl orthoacetate. The acidic compound is preferably added before step (3), but may also be added during step (3).

[0089] In step (3), heating and, if necessary, reducing the pressure removes part or all of the alcohol by-produced in step (1), as well as, if necessary, the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group and / or saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​remaining as unreacted raw materials. In the present invention, removal can be achieved by either concentration or distillation. Concentration is a method of removing compounds to be removed from the system while leaving desired compounds in the system. In contrast, distillation is a method of extracting desired compounds from the system. While distillation produces highly purified N-acyl modified compounds, it requires complex processes and equipment, requires large amounts of energy, and imposes a heavy environmental burden. Concentration, on the other hand, not only contains impurities such as catalyst residues, but also, in some cases, contains unreacted alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group and saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3). Therefore, the N-acyl modified compounds are obtained as crude N-acyl modified compounds with low purity. However, the process and equipment required are simple, require less energy, and impose a low environmental burden. From the viewpoint of ease of production, it is more advantageous to remove the components by using a concentration method.

[0090] In the present invention, even if step (3) is carried out by concentration rather than distillation, it is possible to provide a modified polyisocyanate as a coating curing agent with sufficient performance by reaction with polyisocyanate (a4). Meanwhile, in order to further improve the corrosion prevention or corrosion resistance of the coating film, the crude N-acyl-modified product obtained by using a branched carboxylic acid ester having two hydrogen atoms at the α-position as the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​may be purified by distillation as necessary before use. Meanwhile, the crude N-acyl-modified product obtained by using a linear carboxylic acid ester having two or more hydrogen atoms at the α-position as the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​is more preferred from the viewpoint of ease of production, since it is easy to obtain a coating film that exhibits extremely high corrosion prevention and weather resistance even when used without purification by distillation.

[0091] Step (4) may be carried out at 40 to 200°C without the addition of a catalyst, or at 20 to 140°C with the addition of a basic catalyst or Lewis acid catalyst. Adding a catalyst in step (4) is preferred because a small amount of Lewis acid catalyst is effective. Known Lewis acid catalysts can be used, including tin compounds such as dialkyltin dicarboxylate, monoalkyltin tricarboxylate, dialkyltin oxide, and tin dicarboxylate; zinc compounds such as zinc dicarboxylate and zinc di(acetylacetonate); zirconium compounds such as zirconium tetraalkoxide, dialkoxyzirconium di(acetylacetonate), and zirconium tetra(acetylacetonate); titanium compounds such as titanium tetraalkoxide, dialkoxytitanium di(acetylacetonate), and titanium tetra(acetylacetonate); aluminum compounds such as aluminum tri(acetylacetonate); and bismuth compounds such as bismuth tricarboxylate.

[0092] In each of steps (1), (2), (3) and (4), a filtration operation may be added as necessary, and a known filtering material can be used for the filtration operation.

[0093] In the production of the modified polyisocyanate (Y), the reaction ratio of the purified N-position-modified alkoxysilane or crude N-position-modified alkoxysilane obtained from the alkoxysilane (a1) having a primary amino group and the saturated carboxylic acid alkyl ester (a3) ​​with the polyisocyanate (a4) is preferably adjusted so that the total number of moles of secondary amide groups and primary amino groups is 40 moles or less, preferably 3 moles or more and 35 moles or less, per 100 moles of isocyanate groups.

[0098] In this specification, the nonvolatile content is the residue remaining after removing volatile components such as organic solvents, and can be measured according to the standard of JIS K 5601 1-2 (heating temperature: 125°C, heating time: 60 minutes).

[0146] [Table 1]

[0147] (Note 1) Primary amino group / unsaturated carbon-carbon bond Actual reaction molar ratio: This represents the molar ratio of aminoalkoxysilane added to unsaturated carboxylic acid dialkyl ester. If an excess of unsaturated carboxylic acid dialkyl ester is added, the excess will not undergo the addition reaction and will remain unreacted, so the numerical value will differ between the reaction ratio and the compounding ratio. (Note 2) Amino group / isocyanate group reaction molar ratio: Here, amino group refers to the total amount of amino groups, i.e., the total amount of primary amino groups derived from alkoxysilanes having unreacted amino groups and 1,2-bis(alkoxycarbonyl)ethylamino groups.

[0148] [Evaluation items] (*) State of hardener solution Each hardener solution was sealed in a 250 ml glass bottle and evaluated according to the following criteria. In the table, a rank of ◯ was judged as passing, and ranks of × and XX were judged as failing. The condition was visually observed at the initial stage (immediately after production) and after one year of storage in a sealed, thermostatic chamber at 25°C and 60% humidity. ○: No two-layer separation, cloudiness, or precipitates were observed in the hardener solution, and no abnormalities were observed. ×: Either two layers were separated or the hardener solution was cloudy. ××: The hardener precipitated from the hardener solution. (*) Residual NCO rate in hardener solution The polyisocyanate curing agent solutions obtained in Examples 1 to 7 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were calculated using the following formula. The larger the value, the better. [(Total number of moles of NCO groups contained in the curing agent solution 12 months after its preparation) / (Total number of moles of NCO groups contained in the curing agent solution immediately after its preparation)] x 100 (%) The storage conditions were 25°C and 60% humidity. The total number of moles of NCO groups was calculated by adding 10 ml of 0.1 mol / L dibutylamine solution to 0.1 g of the sample to react with the NCO groups, and then titrating the remaining dibutylamine with aqueous hydrochloric acid using bromophenol blue as a titration indicator.
