Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a curable composition suitable for forming a coating film having physical properties suitable as a top coating.
Background Art
[0002] In recent years, in large buildings such as commercial facilities and hospitals, the rooftops, middle floors, or basements are used as parking lots. Such parking lots are usually provided on the concrete constituting the building as a floor. It is common to apply a urethane coating waterproof material on the concrete floor and apply a top coating having weather resistance, abrasion resistance, etc. over the entire urethane coating waterproof material. One of the materials used for such a top coating is an acrylic urethane resin. Patent Document 1 discloses such an acrylic urethane resin paint.
[0003] On the other hand, Patent Document 2 discloses a curable polyurethane composition using a plurality of polyaspartic acid ester amines having a specific structure. This composition, unlike the technology using a conventional acrylic urethane resin as in Patent Document 1, exhibits good coating properties and adhesiveness even in the absence of a volatile organic solvent, and aims to provide a coating film having physical properties particularly suitable as a top coating for a roofing material including good elongation at break and good tensile strength.
[0004] Patent Document 3 discloses a paint composition containing a main component (I) containing a polyamine compound (A) and a curing agent (II) containing a polyisocyanate compound (B), wherein the polyamine compound (A) contains an aspartic acid ester amine (A1), and the polyisocyanate compound (B) contains an allophanate group-containing polyisocyanate compound (B1). This composition aims to achieve a coating film having good pot life and excellent water-tight adhesion, flexibility, and corrosion resistance.

[0072] The above organic solvents include acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl n-propyl ketone, diisobutyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, methyl n-amyl ketone, methyl isoamyl ketone, acetylacetone, mesityl oxide, cyclohexanone, methylcyclohexanone, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, butyl acetate, n-butyl propionate, diethyl malonate, 1-methoxy-2-propyl acetate, ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate, diisopropyl ether, diethyl ether, dibutyl ether, diethylene glycol diethyl ether, ethylene glycol diethyl ether, and ethylene glycol diethyl ether. Coal monopropyl ether, ethylene glycol mono(2-ethylhexyl) ether, acetals, for example, particularly methylal, ethylal, propyral, butyral, 2-ethylhexylal, dioxolane, glycerol formal or 2,5,7,10-tetraoxaundecane (TOU), and toluene, xylene, heptane, octane, naphtha, gasoline, petroleum ether or diesel fuel, particularly selected from the list consisting of Solvesso® products (from Exxon), methylene chloride, propylene carbonate, butyrolactone, N-methylpyrrolidone and N-ethylpyrrolidone.
[0073] [Other Additives] The curable composition of the present invention may contain other additives commonly used for polyurea compositions. The following auxiliary agents and additives may be present: - Inorganic or organic pigments, particularly titanium dioxide, chromium oxide, or iron oxide; - Rheological modifiers; - Additives, particularly wetting agents, leveling agents, defoaming agents, deaeration agents, stabilizers against oxidation, heat, light or ultraviolet irradiation, or biocides; Or further substances commonly used in such compositions. Other additives may be included in either or both of the first component A or the second component B.
[0074] When the two components of the curable composition of the present invention are mixed at 1000 rpm for 30 seconds, and then measured at 5 rpm for 30 seconds with a No. 5 spindle, and determined using a Brookfield viscometer at 23°C, they preferably have a viscosity of 2200 mPa·s or less. The viscosity is more preferably 100 to 2050 mPa·s, and even more preferably 500 to 180 mPa·s. Having the above preferred viscosity allows for more suitable application by roller or brush.
[0075] The first component A and the second component B of the curable composition of the present invention are separate components. The first component A and the second component B of the curable composition of the present invention are produced separately from each other. The components of each component are mixed together here, preferably with the water removed, in order to obtain a visually uniform liquid. Each component is preferably stored in separate waterproof containers. Suitable containers include, in particular, drums, bulk containers, hobocks, pails, cans, pouches, canisters, or bottles.
[0076] When using the curable composition of the present invention, the two components are mixed immediately before application. The mixing ratio is preferably selected such that the active hydrogen groups are present in an appropriate ratio to the isocyanate groups as described above. By weight, the mixing ratio of the first component A to the second component B is preferably about 1:2 to 2:1.
[0077] The two components described above are mixed using an appropriate stirring mechanism, such as a double-shaft mixer, and the individual components are properly pre-mixed in the correct mixing ratio. Equally possible is continuous mechanical processing using a two-component measuring unit with static or dynamic mixing of the components. During mixing, it should be ensured that the two components are mixed with maximum uniformity. If mixing precedes application, it must be ensured that the time elapsed between mixing the components and applying the mixture is not too long. This is because too long a time can result in confusion, such as poor flow or delayed or incomplete adhesion to the substrate. Mixing is carried out at ambient temperatures, preferably around 10 to 35°C, typically in the range of about 5 to 50°C.
[0078] Chemical curing is initiated by mixing two components. Available NCO reactive groups, particularly amino groups, react with available isocyanate groups. As a result of these reactions, the composition hardens, producing a solid material. This process is also called crosslinking.
[0079] The present invention further relates to a composition obtained by mixing the two components described above, and to a cured product obtained by curing the mixed composition.
[0080] In application, the curable composition immediately after mixing is applied to the surface of the substrate. Then, it is preferable to apply the curable composition by distributing it over the target area using, for example, a roller, brush, or painting brush until the desired layer thickness is achieved. However, this can also be applied by spray application with a spray pressure of over 50 bar, particularly over 100 bar.
[0081] In a further embodiment, the present invention relates to a method for applying the above-described mixed curable composition as a top coating to a substrate (object). The substrate is preferably a substrate for roofing applications.
[0082] The top coating formed by the coating method of the present invention preferably has a thickness of 50 to 300 μm (after drying). More preferably, this thickness is 75 to 250 μm, and even more preferably 100 to 200 μm.
[0083] The top coating formed from the curable composition of the present invention is used in environments exposed to the atmosphere. "Exposed to the atmosphere" means being in an environment exposed to air pollution and weathering. The curable composition of the present invention is preferably used to form a top coating (outermost layer) for roofs and the like. Particularly preferably, the curable composition of the present invention is used to form the outermost layer of a waterproof membrane that is placed on and exposed on the floor of a parking lot having a parking area for parking vehicles. The waterproof membrane is formed by laminating a primer layer, a waterproof layer, and an anti-slip layer in that order on the floor, with the anti-slip layer being the outermost layer of the waterproof membrane, and the anti-slip layer may be composed of a mixture of the curable composition of the present invention and aggregate.
[0084] By using such a waterproof membrane, it is possible to provide a waterproof membrane with excellent weather resistance and abrasion resistance, as well as a method for producing the same, without having to apply a conventional acrylic top coating as the outermost layer. In other words, the curable composition of the present invention is advantageous in that it eliminates the process of forming a conventional acrylic top coating.
[0085] [parking] The parking lot on which the waterproof membrane of the present invention is installed can be any parking lot having a parking area for parking vehicles. The parking lot may be, for example, a parking lot located on the roof, middle floors, or underground of a large building such as a commercial facility or a hospital.
[0086] [Parking area] In this invention, a parking area is an area for parking vehicles. In this invention, a parking area is a broad concept that includes an area where vehicles can be parked (for example, the floor in the case where a parking lot occupies the entire floor of a large building), and a single parking space for parking one vehicle.
[0087] (Driving area) The above-mentioned parking lot may further have a driving area for vehicles to travel on. Examples of the above-mentioned driving area include at least one or all of the area surrounding the above-mentioned parking area, and ramps connecting each floor of the building. If the above-mentioned parking area further includes a driving area for vehicles to travel on, the parking area and the driving area may be integrated to form the floor (substrate) of the parking area. Examples of cases where the parking area and the driving area are integrated include cases where the parking area and the driving area are integrated to form a parking area on the rooftop or on each floor of a building, and cases where, in addition to the rooftop or on-floor parking area where the parking area and driving area are integrated as described above, a ramp connecting each floor of the building is connected as a driving area, and these are integrated. The floor (substrate) of the parking lot may be made of concrete, mortar, or the like.
[0088] [Waterproof membrane] The top coating formed from the curable composition of the present invention can constitute the outermost layer of a waterproof membrane that is placed on and exposed on the floor of the parking lot.
[0089] [Placement] A waterproof membrane having a top coating formed from the curable composition of the present invention may be placed in the parking area of the parking lot, and if the parking lot further has a driving area, the waterproof membrane of the present invention may be placed in both the parking area and the driving area. Alternatively, the waterproof membrane of the present invention may be placed over the entire floor of a parking lot having a parking area.
[0090] [Exposure] A waterproof membrane having a top coating formed from the curable composition of the present invention is placed on the floor of the parking lot and exposed. Exposure of the waterproof membrane means that there is no further topcoat on top of the waterproof membrane. Therefore, in this invention, the anti-slip layer becomes the outermost layer of the waterproof layer of the present invention. In other words, the anti-slip layer is directly exposed to, for example, sunlight, rain, and contact with tires.
[0091] The above-mentioned parking lot will be described below using the attached drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to the attached drawings. (Figure 1) Figure 1 is a photograph showing an example of a parking lot with parking areas for parking vehicles. In Figure 1, parking lot 1 has multiple parking areas 11, each accommodating one vehicle. Adjacent parking areas 11 are separated by lines 13. In addition, parking lot 1 has a driving area 15 in addition to the parking area 11. The parking area 11 and the driving area 15 are integrated to form parking lot 1. Arrows 17 indicating the direction of vehicle travel are painted on the driving area 5. A waterproof membrane has already been laid over the entire floor surface of parking lot 1, and lines 13, arrows 17, etc., have been applied on top of the waterproof membrane. In Figure 1, the waterproof membrane (specifically the anti-slip layer) is exposed in the areas other than those where lines 13, arrows 17, etc., have been applied and the wheel stops.
[0092] (Figure 2) Figure 2 is a photograph illustrating an example where the ramps connecting each floor of a building are used as vehicle access areas. In Figure 2, the ramp 25 connects to the rooftop or floor-level parking area, which integrates the parking and driving areas, as a driving area, and further connects each floor of the building. The ramp 25 slopes downward from the foreground of the photograph to the left in the background. The ramp 25 has a driving area 21 and collision prevention poles 27, and the driving area 21 is demarcated by lines 23. The waterproof membrane of the present invention is already laid over the entire floor of the slope 25, and the line 23 is applied on top of the waterproof membrane. In the slope 25 (floor), the waterproof membrane (more specifically, the anti-slip layer) is exposed in areas other than where the line 23 and pole 27 are installed.
[0093] [Lamination of waterproof membrane] The above-mentioned waterproof membrane is constructed by layering a primer layer, a waterproof layer, and an anti-slip layer in that order on top of the parking lot floor (substrate).
[0094] The waterproof membrane described above will be explained below with reference to the attached drawings. However, the waterproof membrane of the present invention is not limited to those shown in the attached drawings. (Figure 3) Figure 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of a parking lot floor and the waterproof membrane of the present invention placed thereon. In Figure 3, a waterproof membrane 30 is placed on the floor 31 of a parking lot with a parking area for parking vehicles. The waterproof membrane 30 is exposed. The waterproof membrane 30 is constructed by laminating a primer layer 35, a waterproof layer 37, and an anti-slip layer 39 on the floor 31 in that order. The anti-slip layer 39 is the outermost layer of the waterproof membrane 30.
[0095] Furthermore, lines indicating parking areas, the direction a vehicle should travel, and stopping positions can be partially displayed on the waterproof membrane of the present invention. Furthermore, the above-mentioned waterproof membrane may be placed on areas other than the parking lot floor, such as on the walls.
[0096] When the curable composition of the present invention is used to form the outermost layer of the waterproof membrane of the parking lot, the curable composition of the present invention may contain aggregate.
[0097] [aggregate] The aggregate may be, for example, natural silicate materials such as silica sand, minerals (basalt, etc.), river sand, or ceramics. The average particle size of the aggregate can be, for example, 0.1 mm to 2 mm, and more preferably 0.2 to 1 mm. The average particle size can be measured by laser diffraction / scattering, for example, using a particle size distribution analyzer SALD-2000J manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation. The amount of the aggregate can be 10 to 200 parts by mass per 100 parts by mass of the solid content (hardened product) of the curable composition of the present invention.
