Definitions
- This invention relates to water-borne coatings and in particular to coatings that exhibit good soil resistance properties.
- coatings can be adversely affected by atmospheric pollutants such as dirt, dust and carbon particles from combustion processes being deposited on the surface of a paint film.
- atmospheric pollutants such as dirt, dust and carbon particles from combustion processes being deposited on the surface of a paint film.
- a white paint film may become quite grey from atmospheric pollutants after exterior use in major industrial cities.
- unacceptable soiling may take place within as short a period of time as several weeks.
- the problem of atmospheric soiling is obviously of greatest concern for exterior coatings.
- Soil resistance needs to be distinguished from stain resistance which is a property more commonly associated with interior paints which are exposed to a range of domestic staining materials such as food, oil and beverages. Indeed paints that are good for stain resistance may be poor for soil resistance and vice versa.
- water-borne semi-gloss latex paints generally are good for stain resistance and stain removal when used as interior paints. These paints have good mar resistance and wet and dry scrub performance and this enables the stained or dirtied surface to be cleaned by scrubbing without causing the treated area to "gloss up" and exhibit a gloss that is different from the surrounding area.
- these same paints can have poor soil resistance.
- EP 0 522 789 A2 A further approach to dirt pick up resistant coatings is disclosed in EP 0 522 789 A2.
- This specification relates to high film build elastomeric coatings. Improved soil resistance is achieved by combining polymers of different Tg's within the one polymeric dispersion particle, providing an outer shell of harder polymer around a softer inner polymer core, and including photochemical crosslinking. These coatings are promoted for high build applications and are not recommended for use at the lower film builds of conventional paints. When used at these lower film builds dirt pick up is reported in Rohm and Haas promotional literature to be poor.
- Australian patent application AU-A-80149/91 by Rohm and Haas Company relates to film forming binders which are a blend of emulsion polymers and paints formulated from such binders.
- the blends consist of a least two emulsion polymers, a hard emulsion polymer having a Tg greater than 20°C and a soft emulsion polymer having a Tg less than 20°C.
- the compositions described in this Rohm and Haas specification are claimed to be particularly useful in providing good block resistance when formulated as interior semi-gloss paints whilst retaining good film formation properties at low temperatures. No statement is made about soil resistance or use on exterior surfaces.
- the inventors explain that if a soft emulsion polymer is blended with increasing amounts of a hard emulsion polymer, the minimum film forming temperature (MFFT) of the blend will remain about equal to the MFFT of the soft polymer until the hard polymer is about 50 weight percent of the polymer blend.
- the preferred binder compositions have 60% by weight soft and 40% by weight hard polymer.
- the soft to hard latex polymer ratio varies from 4:1 to 1.5:1 and the soft polymers are said to have a MFFT greater than 0°C.
- these compositions when used as exterior coatings would not be expected to have good soil resistance properties.
- the inclusion of the hard latex is believed to provide the good block resistance properties desired for interior semi-gloss paints. The property of soil resistance does not necessarily correlate with film hardness and paints of equal hardness can demonstrate significantly different soil resistance.
- Japanese Patent J 5 9215-365-A in the name of Nippon Acryl Kagaku discloses compositions obtained by mixing 35-45 wt % acrylic resin emulsion of Tg 25 to 50 degrees C and 55-65 wt % acrylic resin emulsion of Tg -10 to +15 degrees C. These compositions thus have a soft to hard ratio of 1.9:1 to 1.2:1. These compositions also have a plasticiser which may be volatile. Whilst these paints have particular application as ventilator coatings to prevent the smearing of the surface, anti-soil properties are not examined, though they would be expected to be poor.
- United States Patent No. 4,385,152 of Boyack et al discloses emulsion coatings for coating uncured cementitious substrates.
- the compositions consist of a blend of a multi-stage first polymer dispersion and a second polymer dispersion.
- the multi-stage polymer dispersion has a hard core and soft outer shell. It is a requirement for this invention that both polymer dispersions are film forming at ambient temperatures. Blends of these two dispersions are claimed to lead to improved dirt pick up resistance when applied to cementitious substrates.
- United States Patent No. 4,069,186 of Ramig discloses paint compositions having film forming latex binder, non- film forming plastic polymer particles and opacifying pigment. These paint compositions have a pigment-volume- content (PVC) greater than the critical PVC as measured by opacity. Indeed it is an object of that invention to provide paints with improved opacity whilst maintaining excellent film integrity properties.
- the paints are intended for use as interior low gloss high opacity paints.
- Preferred paints are formulated such that the PVC is greater than the critical PVC, as measured by opacity, but less than the critical surface porosity PVC, as measured by enamel hold out.
- non-film-forming particles used in this prior art invention are explained at column 6 line 61, as being preferably polystyrene and indeed this is consistent with the examples which are limited to polystyrene, polymethylmethacrylate and polyvinylchloride. Most of the examples use polystyrene particles which is consistent with the intended interior application for these coatings where the relatively poor exterior durability of polystyrene would not be relevant. Not surprisingly, in view of the intended application, no testing as anti-soil exterior paints is mentioned.
- US Patent 4,283,320 of Carroll et al has the same assignee as the patent of Ramig and discloses opacified latex semi-gloss paint comprising film forming latex binders combined with minor amounts of opacifying pigment and substantial amounts of non-film-forming polymeric particles.
- the compositions as defined in claim 1 include 55 to 70% of film-forming polymer particles. Accordingly if the non-film-forming particles are regarded as hard particles the ratio of soft to hard particles is from 7:1 to 2.2:1 in this prior art invention.
- the Tg of the film forming particles is at least 5°C for ordinary room temperatures. Again no testing of the compositions as soil resistant exterior coatings is reported but they would be expected to be poor because of the large proportions of soft polymeric particles.
- This invention provides in one form an aqueous coating composition
- a aqueous coating composition comprising a blend of a low Tg and a high Tg aqueous polymeric dispersions characterised in that: the PVC of the coating composition as measured by opacity is less than the critical PVC, the polymer dispersion with low Tg has a Tg less than 0°C, the polymer dispersion with high Tg is non film forming and has a Tg of at least 35°C and the volume ratio of low Tg polymer dispersion to high Tg polymer dispersion is from 0.4:1 to 1.4:1.
- the volume ratio of low Tg polymer dispersion to high Tg polymer dispersion is from 0.6:1 to 1.2:1 and more preferably 0.7:1 to 1.1:1.
- a commonly used characterising parameter for latex paints is the pigment-volume-content (PVC) which is the percent by volume of pigment present in the dried paint film relative to the total volume of the dried paint film.
- the term pigment includes mineral opacifiers such as Ti0 2 and ZnO as well as extender particles and non deformable "plastic" pigments.
- PVC pigment-volume-content
- the PVC measurement at this level of pigment content is characterised as critical PVC wherein a binder deficiency occurs such that insufficient binder is present in the paint film to encapsulate the pigment particles and fill any remaining voids in the film.
- CPVC opacity
- the high Tg aqueous dispersion under some circumstances may contribute to the PVC of the paint depending on the extent of deformability of the particles.
- the coatings of the present invention must have PVC's less than the CPVC (opacity) to achieve the required mechanical film properties.
- the CPVC (opacity) is determined experimentally by a PVC ladder.
- a PVC ladder series of experiments leads to a graph relating the opacity of dried paint films as a function of pigment-volume-content (PVC) .
- the PVC is varied by changing the relative volume of the binder by adding or subtracting a given pigment component while maintaining the volume percent of other pigment components constant.
- the ladder series is developed by varying the relative proportions of high and low Tg dispersions.
- the actual PVC of the compositions of the present invention may be difficult to calculate as the extent of deformability of the high Tg dispersion may change.
- CPVC CPVC
- the aqueous dispersions, both high and low Tg of this invention are usually copolymers of addition polymerisable ethylenically unsaturated comonomers.
- useful comonomers include alkyl acrylates and methacrylates where the alkyl group has 1 to 20 (and more preferably 1 to 8) carbon atoms, styrene, vinyl acetate, acrylonitrile and simple or substituted olefines such as butadiene and ethylene.
- monomers of known good exterior durability are preferably used.
- monomers such as methyl methacrylate and butyl acrylate and similar alkyl acrylate and methacrylate esters are preferred.
- Monomers containing other functional groups such as hydroxyl or carboxyl groups may be used.
- Minor amounts of functional monomers such as ureido, amine or acetoacetate containing monomers directed towards specific objectives such as adhesion promotion or crosslinking may also be incorporated.
- the selection of comonomers and their relative proportions is based on well established principles in the art and generally balance properties such as exterior durability, toughness and hardness with cost.
- Preferred compositions include acetoacetate functional groups, particularly prepared by copolymerising acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate (AAEM) monomer, preferably at least 0.5% and more preferably at least 2.0%.
- AAEM acetoacetoxyethyl methacrylate
- the molecular weight of the copolymers is generally similar to known latexes and typically would be at least 25,000 (Mn) .
- a gelling structure in the particles is permitted in a similar fashion to the gel structure of known commercial latexes. In some cases it is desirable to enhance the gel structure by including minor amounts of polyfunctional acrylate or methacrylate monomers provided film formation is not unacceptably compromised.
- the aqueous dispersions of the present invention may be prepared by known means, for example emulsion polymerisation. Good results are achieved when the aqueous dispersion is prepared such that it is sterically stabilised.
- sterically stabilised is an art recognised term in colloid science and means that, in aqueous systems, colloidal stability is conferred by the presence of a sheath of water soluble polymeric or uncharged oligomeric chains anchored to the particle surface.
- sterically stabilised dispersions we mean that whilst other types of stability, such as anionic or cationic, may be present there is also colloidal stability conferred by steric stabilisation.
- a convenient test to ascertain whether the dispersion is sterically stabilised or not is to increase the ionic concentration of the aqueous phase to such an extent that ionic stabilisation is nullified and then to assess the stability of the dispersion.
- polymer dispersions which have a core/shell structure whereby either the hard particles or soft particles or both are structured so that the outer shell of the particle differs in polymer composition from that of the centre of the particle.
- Polymer particles that include voids are also within the scope of the present invention.
- the aqueous dispersions usually give thermoplastic films.
- crosslinkable polymer dispersions where cross-linking takes place after film formation. Examples are well known in the art and particularly useful examples are described in our copending Australian patent application entitled “Crosslinkable Aqueous Coating Compositions" No. PM1525.
- An important characteristic of the two aqueous dispersions that contributes to the working of the present invention is their glass transition temperatures (Tg) .
- glass transition temperature is a term well known in the art and generally defines the onset of long range molecular motion wherein the polymer preserves the outward appearance of a solid but becomes rubbery and then tacky with increasing temperature and undergoes plastic flow and elastic deformation.
- the glass transition temperatures are best determined by measurement. Glass transition temperature can be measured in accordance with the differential thermal analysis method set out in the Journal of Paint Technology, Volume 41, pages 167-168 (1969) or by testing for softening points, using a minimum film forming temperature gradient bar or thermomechanical analysis (TMA) or differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) .
- TMA thermomechanical analysis
- DSC differential scanning calorimetry
- the low Tg dispersion should have a Tg of 0°C maximum, although better film properties are achieved when the Tg is -60 to -5°C and more preferably -20 to -10°C.
- soil resistant coatings can be based on such a low Tg polymer as it would seem that a Tg lower than normally used in a coating composition, 5-15°C, would lead to coatings that are poor for soil resistance as dirt particles would be expected to be more readily embedded in the surface.
- a Tg lower than normally used in a coating composition 5-15°C
- coatings can be achieved that do not require the addition of volatile plasticisers.
- paints containing normal levels of volatile coalescents tend to be poor for soil resistance preferred paint compositions are free of organic solvents and coalescents. Accordingly coatings can be prepared that comply with the zero VOC requirement for low pollution paints.
- the high Tg non film forming dispersion of the present invention has a Tg of at least 35°C, preferably 40 - 110°C, and more preferably 45 - 90°C and most preferably 50 - 70°C. There should be a difference of at least 35°C, preferably 45°C, and more preferably at least 55°C between the Tg's of the two polymeric dispersions. It will be appreciated that the upper limit in Tg is also influenced by the requirement that the PVC of the coating is below the critical PVC as measured by opacity.
- non film-forming means that at 20°C a wet film cast on a substrate fails to form a continuous film.
- the relative proportion of the low and high Tg dispersions is most important to the working of the present invention and we require that the volume ratio of low Tg polymeric dispersion to high Tg polymeric dispersion to be from 0.4:1 to 1.4:1. This is of course calculated on a non-volatile basis. In practice there is usually little difference between the weight and volume ratios. If the particles are based on the same monomers it is convenient to use the weight ratios as the densities of the particles are essentially the same.
- compositions of the present invention are particularly suitable for gloss and semi-gloss paints.
- the low PVC of these type of coatings can lead to poor soil resistance.
- the high Tg polymer dispersion we have found it to be advantageous to use small particle size polymer dispersions, especially for the high Tg polymer dispersion.
- the particle size of both the low and high Tg particles should preferably be less than 200 nm in diameter, more preferably less than 150 nm and most preferably less than 100 nm.
- Preferred paints have a gloss of at least 10 (60° head) and more preferably 40 (60° head).
- the major portion of the binder in this invention is the combination of a low Tg and high Tg polymer dispersion as described above, other binders may be included. If a third polymeric dispersion is included it may be regarded as a high or low Tg dispersion if its Tg meets the criteria set out above.
- binders of polymer dispersions of -15°C (40%), -10°C (10%) and +50°C (50%). In this case both the -15 C and -10 C dispersions are regarded together as the low Tg, and in this case the low Tg to high Tg ratio is 1:1.
- minor amounts of dispersions that are neither low or high Tg as defined in this invention may be used as well as minor amounts of solution polymers and other additives as used in art recognised quantities.
- the PVC of pigmented coatings is approximately 20 to provide the required level of gloss and opacity.
- the compositions of the present invention also have application as interior paints.
- This example illustrates the preparation of a semi- gloss paint according to the invention and its evaluation.

- Paint IC (two coats) was applied to cement sheet and exposed on a factory roof at 45° to the horizontal for three months in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The initial gloss was 27 (60° head). After this period the panel was visually assessed for dirt pick up and rated as good relative to a conventional premium low sheen exterior latex paint which was rated as fair.

- a paint was made according to Example 10 using Examples 3A(Tg -15°C) and 3E(Tg +90°C) which were blended at a ratio of 0.7:1. 3.5% of the solid latex was replaced with Jeffamine ED600 (polyoxyalkylene diamine) to enable a crosslinked film to be formed.
- the paint was drawn down on a primed Zincalume panel and pre-baked for 60 seconds ⁇ 65°C then baked to a peak metal temperature of 232°C in another 30 seconds.
- the paint had an initial 60° gloss of 21, a pencil hardness of F and was rated as good for soil resistance compared to a conventional polyester coil coating of similar PVC, gloss level, the same pencil hardness and which was rated as very poor.
