Abstract

A water-based polymer composition containing a polyvalent metal complex and a polymer having pendant strong cationic groups and weak acid salts groups forms fast dry-to-the-touch coatings that are resistant to water and many organic solvents. These coatings can be removed with ammonia-containing solvents.

Description

COMPOSITION CONTAINING AMPHIIONIC RESIN AND POLYVALENT METAL COMPLEX
The present invention relates to a water-based polymeric composition that can be used to prepare a dust-free, tack-free, solvent-resistant coating.
Coatings provide protective barriers for a variety of things including floors, S automobiles, exteriors and interiors of houses, and human skin. Protective coatings for floors, for example, have been known since the mid 1950s. Many of the early coating materials were applied using petroleum- or naphthene-based solvents and as such, were undesirable due to the toxicity and flammability of these solvents.
Water-based synthetic emulsion compositions, such as styrene resin emulsions, styrene-acrylate copolymer resin emulsions, and acrylate emulsions, developed in the early 1960s, gradually replaced organic solvent-based compositions. Although these water-based compositions are less toxic and more environmentally friendly than organic solvent-based compositions, the water-based compositions tend to be slow to become tack-free and dust-free.
Removable, water-based coatings are known. For example, polymers that contain ammonium carboxylate functionality are water compatible, but become incompatible through the loss of solvent and ammonia.
Polymer-COO- NH4+ --~ Polymer-COOH + NH3 water compatible water incompatible Coatings made by the above-illustrated process can be subsequently removed by contact with an aqueous alkaline liquid, which converts the acid back into the water-compatible salt.
For example, in U.S. Patent 4,622,360, Gomi et al. discloses a removable water-borne polyurethane resin containing carboxyl groups. Coating compositions can be prepared by adding a polyvalent complex-forming metal to the water-borne resin. The polyvalent metal forms a stable water-dispersible complex with the resin in the aqueous solution. When the dispersion is applied to a floor surface, volatile materials evaporate to allow the polyvalent metal ions to initiate a crosslinking of two or more carboxyl groups, thereby forming a hardened, water-incompatible coating that dries in about 30 minutes. This hardened coating can be removed with an alkaline remover solution containing, for example, potassium oleate and ammonia.
The ammonium carboxylate coating that contains the polyvalent metal is water-resistant as compared to the coating that does not contain the metal.
Nevertheless, the coating takes about 30 minutes to dry. It would be an advantage to prepare a water- and solvent-resistant coating that becomes dust-free and tack-free in less than 5 minutes.
The present invention is a composition comprising: a) a polymer having a backbone that contains pendant strong cationic groups and weak acid salt groups; b) a water-based solvent medium; and c) a polyvalent metal complex.
In a second aspect, the present invention is a composition prepared by dispersing into a water-based solvent medium: a) a polymer having a backbone that contains pendant strong cationic groups and weak acid groups; b) sufficient ammonia or an amine to convert at least a portion of the weak acid groups to salts of a weak acid; and c) a polyvalent metal complexing agent to form a polyvalent metal complex with the ammonia or amine, the amine being sufficiently volatile to spontaneously evaporate when the composition is applied as a coating to a substrate.
The composition of the present invention can form a water- and solvent-resistant film that is tack-free in less than 5 minutes.
The composition of the present invention comprises a polymer having a backbone that contains strong cationic groups and weak acid salt groups, which polymer is dispersed in a water-based solvent medium along with a polyvalent metal complex.
As used herein, the terms "dispersion" or "dispersed" refer to a stable or metastable mixture of the polymer with the water-based solvent medium, and includes a solution, or a micellular or partially colloidal suspension, but not a stable aqueous dispersion (that is, latex). As used herein, a film or coating is °dust-free" when the finger, without pressure, can be lightly run over the surface of the film without picking up a film on the finger. As used herein, a film or coating is "tack-free° when the finger, with a slight pressure, will not leave a mark, and the surface is not sticky. As used herein, "water-based solvent medium" refers to a solvent that contains at least 10 percent by weight water, based on the weight of total W~ ~~~~8 PCT/US98/11831 solvents, more preferably at least 20 percent by weight water, most preferably at least 40 percent by weight water.
The polymer having a backbone that contains strong cationic groups and weak acid ammonium salt groups can be formed from the polymerization of a pofymerizable strong cationic monomer and a polymerizable weak acid monomer, followed by addition of ammonia to form the ammonium salt of the weak acid groups. As used herein, the term "polymerizable strong cationic monomer' refers to a monomer that contains ethylenic unsaturation and a cationic group having a charge that is independent of pH.
Similarly, the term "polymerizable weak acid monomers refers to a monomer that contains ethylenic unsaturation and a weak acid group. As used herein, the term "weak acid group"
refers to an acid having a pKa in the range of from 2 to 7.
The term "structural units formed from the polymerization of..." is illustrated by the following example.
-~~H-CH2-HQ---C-CH=CH2 HO-O
Acrylic Acid Stuctural units formed from the polymerization of Acrylic Acid In addition to structural units formed from the polymerization of a polymerizable strong cationic monomer and a polymerizable weak acid monomer, the polymer also preferably includes structural units that can be formed from the polymerization of a pofymerizable non-interfering monomer. The term "polymerizable non-interfering monomer"
is used herein to refer to an uncharged monomer that does not adversely affect the formation and properties of a coating prepared from the dispersion of the polymer.
Polymerizable weak acid monomers that are suitable for the preparation of the dispersion used to prepare the dust-free and tack-free coating include ethylenically unsaturated compounds having carboxylic acid functionality. Preferred polymerizable acid monomers include acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, itaconic acid, ~-carboxyethyl acrylate (usually as a mixture of acrylic acid oligomers), and vinylbenzoic acid.
Acrylic acid and methacrylic acid are more preferred acid monomers.
The polymerizable strong cationic monomer is associated with a counterion, which may be, for example, halide such as chloride or bromide, nitrate, phosphate, sulfate, acetate, or hydroxide. Suitable polymerizable strong cationic monomers include salts of ethylenically unsaturated compounds having quaternary ammonium, sulfonium, cyclic sulfonium, and phosphonium functionality. Examples of suitable monomers having quaternary ammonium functionality include ethylenically unsaturated trialkylammonium salts such as vinylbenzyl tri-C,-C4 alkylammonium chloride or bromide; trialkylammoniumalkyl acrylates or methacrylates such as 2-[(methacryloyloxy)ethyl] trimethylammonium chloride and N,N-diethyl-N-methyl-2-[(1-oxo-2-propenyl)oxy] ethanaminium methyl sulfate CChem.

A preferred polymerizable quaternary ammonium salt is 2-[(methacryloyloxy)ethyl] trimethylammonium chloride.

The polymer that contains pendant strong cationic groups and weak acid groups can also be prepared from a monomer that contains both a weak acid group and a strong cationic group. Examples of such monomers include N-(4-carboxy)benzyl-N,N-dimethyl-2-[(2-methyl-1-oxo-2-propenyl)-oxy) ethanaminium chloride and N-(3-sulphopropyl)-N-methacroyloxyethyl-N,N-dimethylammonium betaine.
It is also possible to prepare a polymer that contains strong cationic groups and weak acid groups by adding strong cationic functionality to an already prepared polymer. For example, a polymerizabfe monomer having a weak acid group can be copolymerized with a polymerizable non-interfering monomer containing an electrophilic group, such as vinylbenzyl halide, to form a polymer having a weak acid group and an electrophilic group.
This polymer can then be post-reacted with a nucleophile such as a tertiary amine, pyridine, a dialkyl sulfide, or a cyclic sulfide, which can displace the halide group.
This concept is illustrated in the following reaction scheme:
Polymer Backbone -~11--s A ~~, A ArCH2Nu ~ L~
where A is a pendant weak acid group; Ar is an aromatic group, preferably a phenyl group; L
is a leaving group, preferably a halide group, more preferably a chloride group; and Nu is the nucleophile that reacts to become the strong cationic group.
In another example of adding strong cationic functionality to an already prepared polymer, a polymer backbone that contains pendant acid groups and a tertiary amine or a sulfide can be post-reacted with an alkylating reagent such as an alkyl halide to form a polymer that contains acid groups and strong cationic groups:
Polymer Backbone -~.-~
A Nu A Nu-R ~ L
where RL is an alkylating reagent.
Examples of non-interfering polymerizable monomers include acrylates such as methyl acrylate, ethyl acryfate, butyl acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate, and allyi acrylate; methacrylates such as methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, allyl methacrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, polypropylene glycol monomethacryfate, and 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate; alkenyl aromatic hydrocarbons such as 4-methacryloxy-2-hydroxybenzophenone, 2-(2'-hydroxy-5-methacrylyloxyethyl-phenyl)-2H-benzotriazole; and C,-C, alkyl- or alkenyl-substituted styrenes, preferably styrene, a-methylstyrene, vinyltoluene, and vinylbenzyl chloride. Other examples of non-interfering species include C3 C,e perfluoroalkyl methacrylates such as 2-(perfluorooctyl)ethyl methacrylate; C3 C,e perfluoroalkyl acrylates such as 2-[ethyl[(heptadecafluorooctyl)-sulfonyl]amino]-ethyl 2-propenoate; and C3 C,8 perfluoroalkyl vinylbenzenes.

Patent 4,929,666, column 4, lines 54 to 68, and column 5, lines 1 to 30.)
