COATING COMPOSITIONS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention The present invention relates to aqueous two-component coating compositions containing water dispersible compounds, which contain alkoxysilane groups and are substantially free from isocyanate groups, and aqueous polyhydroxy polyesters.
Description of the Prior Art Two-component aqueous compositions containing a water dispersible polyisocyanate component and various water dispersible or water soluble polyhydroxy components are known and described in U.S.
Patents 5,075,370, 5,389,718, 5,387,642, 5,372,875, 5,336,711, 5,344,873 and 5,459,197. The aqueous compositions may be used for a wide range of commercial applications such as adhesives, sealants or coatings for various substrates including textile fabrics, plastic, wood, glass fibers and metals. Chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, toughness, tensile strength) elasticity and durability are among the many desirable properties of these coatings.
One of the known two-component compositions is based on water dispersible polyisocyanates and aqueous polyhydroxy compounds containing ester and/or carbonate groups. One disadvantage of these systems is that the resulting coatings do not possess adequate hardness for certain applications. In addition, it is advantageous in certain applications to avoid the use of polyisocyanate resins for environmental and industrial hygiene reasons.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide two-component aqueous compositions containing new non-isocyanate co-Mo4795 _2_ reactants, which can be used to prepare coatings having improved hardness.
This object may be achieved with the aqueous two-component coating compositions according to the present invention, which are based on water dispersible compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups and an aqueous polyhydroxy compound containing ester and/or carbonate groups. These compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups may be prepared by reacting a polyisocyanate component with compounds containing secondary amino groups and alkoxysilane groups.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to aqueous two-component compositions containing a) compounds which are substantially free from isocyanate groups, have an alkoxysilane group content (calculated as Si, MW 28) of 1 to 6% by weight, based on the weight of the compounds, and contain sufficient chemically incorporated hydrophilic groups to form a stable dispersion with water, wherein the alkoxysilane groups are incorporated as the reaction products of i) a polyisocyanate component having a minimum average functionality of 2.4 and containing at least 50% by weight of polyisocyanate adducts and ii) amino compounds corresponding to the formula I

Suitable hydrophilic compounds which can be used to enable the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups to be stably dispersed in an aqueous medium are compounds containing lateral or Mo4795 -11-terminal, hydrophilic ethylene oxide units and/or compounds containing ionic or potential ionic groups. The ionic or potential ionic groups may be either anionic or cationic groups, preferably anionic groups. Examples of anionic groups include carboxylate and sulfonate groups, while examples of cationic groups include ammonium and sulfonium groups.
Compounds which are stably dispersed are those that remain mixed with water, either in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion or a water-in-oil emulsion, without settling, coagulation or separation for a period of time sufficient to use the dispersion for its intended purpose. In accordance with the present invention the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups also contain a minimum of 2.5% of hydrophilic ethylene oxide units, based on the weight of the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups, or a minimum of 5 milliequivalents of ionic groups, per 100 parts of the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups.
When only hydrophilic ethylene oxide units are used to provide hydrophilicity, they are generally incorporated in an amount of 5 to 35%, preferably 10 to 30% and more preferably about 12 to 25% by weight, based on the weight of the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups.
Suitable compounds for incorporating the lateral or terminal, hydrophilic ethylene oxide units are known and disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,905,929, 3,920,598 and 4,190,566 (the disclosures of which are herein incorporated by reference). Preferred hydrophilic components are the monohydroxy polyethers having terminal hydrophilic chains containing ethylene oxide units. These hydrophilic components may be produced as described in the preceding patents by alkoxylating a monofunctional starter, such as methanol or n-butanol, using ethylene oxide and optionally another alkylene oxide, for example, propylene oxide.

Mo4795 -12-When only ionic groups are used to provide hydrophilicity, they are incorporated in an amount sufficient to provide an ionic group content of 10 to 200 milliequivalents, preferably 10 to 100 milliequivalents and more preferably 25 to 50 milliequivalents, per 100 g of the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups.
The ionic groups are formed by neutralizing the corresponding potential ionic groups either prior to, during or after formation of the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups. When the potential ionic groups are neutralized prior to their incorporation into the these compounds) the ionic groups are incorporated directly. When neutralization is performed subsequent to forming these compounds, potential ionic groups are incorporated.
Suitable compounds for incorporating the carboxylate, sulfonate and quaternary nitrogen groups are described in U.S. Patents 3,479,310, 4,108,814 and 4,303,774) the disclosures of which are herein incorporated by reference. Suitable compounds for incorporating tertiary sulfonium groups are described in U.S. Patent 3,419,533, also incorporated by reference. The preferred sulfonate groups for incorporation into the NCO
prepolymer are the diol sulfonic acids or the diol sulfonates disclosed in U.S. Patent 4,108,814.
The neutralizing agents for converting the potential ionic groups to ionic groups are described in the preceding U.S. patents. Within the context of this invention, the term "neutralizing agents" is meant to embrace all types of agents which are useful for converting potential ionic groups to ionic groups.
The compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups according to the invention are prepared by reacting the polyisocyanate component with the amino-functional silanes and the hydrophilic compounds at a ratio of isocyanate groups to isocyanate-reactive groups of approximately 1:1, Mo4795 -13-such that the resulting product is substantially free of isocyanate groups.
The reaction is preferably carried out by incrementally adding the isocyanate-reactive compound to the polyisocyanate. The amino-functional silane and an isocyanate-reactive hydrophilic compound may be added sequentially or in admixture, preferably the hydrophilic compound is added first, followed by the amino-functional silane.
The reaction to form the urea groups is conducted at a temperature of 10 to 100°C, preferably 20 to 80°C and more preferably 20 to 50°C, while the reaction to incorporate isocyanate-reactive hydrophilic compounds is conducted at a temperature of 20 to 150°C, preferably 50 to 120°C and more preferably 60 to 100°C.
The aqueous, two-component, coating, sealing or adhesive compositions also contain polyhydroxy compounds b), which contain ester and/or carbonate groups and have a number average molecular weight (M", which may be calculated by end group analysis) of 400 to 10,000 preferably 600 to 5,000 and more preferably 700 to 3,000. These polyhydroxy polyesters are known from two-component, polyurethane waterborne technology and are described in U.S. Patents 5,372,875, 5,344,873 and 5,459,197 (all of which are herein incorporated by reference). The polyhydroxy compounds may be rendered water dispersible or water soluble by the use of external emulsifiers, by the incorporation of nonionic hydrophilic groups or by the incorporation of ionic groups, such as anionic or cationic groups. Chemically incorporated hydrophilic groups are preferred, especially ionic groups and more preferably anionic groups.
The aqueous two-component compositions may be prepared by simply mixing the compounds containing urea and alkoxy silane groups with the polyhydroxy compounds. If desired, the compounds containing urea and alkoxy silane groups can be mixed with water prior to mixing Mo4795 -14-these compounds with the polyhydroxy compounds. The amount of water may be sufficient to form either a water-in-oil emulsion or an oil-in-water emulsion. Either before, during or after the two-components have been mixed additional water can be added to obtain the final solids content.
The aqueous coating compositions of the present invention may optionally contain acidic or basic catalysts to accelerate the curing reaction.
Examples include acids such as paratoluene sulfonic acid; metallic salts such as dibutyl tin dilaurate; tertiary amines such as triethylamine or triethylene diamine; and mixtures of these catalysts. Low molecular weight, basic aminoalkyl trialkoxysilanes, such as those represented by formula IV, also accelerate hardening of the compounds according to the invention.
The two-component compositions generally have a solids content of to 60%, preferably 30 to 50% and more preferably 35 to 45%, based on 15 the weight of the two-component composition. The compositions may also contain known additives, such as leveling agents, wetting agents, flow control agents, antiskinning agents, antifoaming agents, fillers (such as silica, aluminum silicates and high-boiling waxes)) viscosity regulators, plasticizers, pigments, dyes, UV absorbers and stabilizers against thermal 20 and oxidative degradation.
The two-component compositions may be applied to any desired substrates, such as wood, plastics) leather, paper, textiles, glass, ceramics, plaster, masonry, metals and concrete. They may be applied by standard methods, such as spray coating, spread coating, flood coating, casting, dip coating or roll coating. The coating compositions may be clear or pigmented lacquers.
The two-component compositions may be cured at ambient temperature, although it is preferred to cure these compositions at elevated Mo4795 -15-temperatures of 120 to 180°C, preferably 130 to 150°C, for approximately 30 minutes in order to obtain optimum properties.
Coatings prepared from these compositions have improved hardness when compared to coatings prepared from the known two-component compositions, which contain polyisocyanate resins instead of the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups. The improvement is surprising because the same improvement in hardness is not obtained when the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups are reacted with other types of polyhydroxy compounds as demonstrated in the following examples.
The invention is further illustrated but is not intended to be limited by the following examples in which all parts and percentages are by weight unless otherwise specified.

Dry times were determined with a Gardner Dry Time meter as described in Pacific Scientific Instruction manuals DG-9600 and DG-9300.
MEK double rubs was determined by wetting a cloth with methyl ethyl ketone and then rubbing each panel up to 100 times. A double rub consists of one back and forth rub against the coated panel. Values of less Mo4795 -20-than 100 indicate the number of double rubs before the coatings was destroyed.
Pencil hardness was determined in accordance with ASTM D-3363.
The order of hardnesses are as follows from softest to hardest: 6B to 1 B, HB, F, 1 H to 8H.
Examples 8-17 - Preparation of Coatings The water dispersible resin, the aqueous polyol, optionally a catalyst and sufficient water to provide a resin solids content of 40 to 43%, based on the resulting composition, were mixed with a high speed mixer.
The catalyst, if used, was the catalyst described in Example 6 and was used in an amount of 4.3%, based on resin solids. The resulting mixtures were used to prepare films which were drawn down on cold rolled steel at a wet film thickness of 3 mils (dry film thickness - 0.4 mils) and air dried for 16 hours at 25°C and 55% relative humidity and then at 140°C for minutes. The water dispersible resin, the aqueous polyol, the presence of catalyst, the silane or NCO to OH equivalent ratio and the pencil hardness of the resulting films are set forth in Table 3.

The pencil hardness values set forth in the preceding table demonstrate that only coatings prepared from the compositions according 15 to the present invention possess higher hardnesses when compared to prior art coating compositions containing polyhydroxy polyesters and water dispersible polyisocyanates. This can be seen by comparing the pencil hardnesses for Examples 7 and 8 with those for Comparison Examples 9 and 10. The hardnesses for Examples 11-13, which were based on urethane group-containing polyols, were unaffected by the type of cross linking agent. To the contrary the hardnesses for Examples 14-16, which were based on polyacrylate polyols, decreased when the compounds containing urea and alkoxysilane groups were used in place of the known water dispersible polyisocyanates.
The examples also demonstrate that the improvements in hardness for the aqueous coating compositions according to the invention were not Mo4795 -22-dependent on the presence of catalyst, nor were they affected by the ratio of silane or isocyanate groups to hydroxy groups.
Although the invention has been described in detail in the foregoing for the purpose of illustration, it is to be understood that such detail is solely for that purpose and that variations can be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention except as it may be limited by the claims.
