Description

RADIATION-CURABLE COATING COMPOSITION
The invention relates to a radiation- curable coating composition containing a radiation- curable resin composition and an aliphatic maleimide.
Such a radiation-curable coating composition is described in "Initiator free polymerisations of donor acceptor monomer systems" by C.E. Hoyle, S. Jonsson, S.C. Clark, C. Miller and M. Shimose (Radtech Europe, June 97, Lyons). This describes a coating composition consisting of an acrylate-functional resin and an aliphatic maleimide. This composition cures under the influence of UV light.
A drawback of such a coating composition is that it cures at a low rate.
The aim of the invention is to provide a radiation-curable coating composition that has a higher curing rate.
This aim is achieved according to the invention because the radiation-curable coating composition also contains a tertiary amine. This ensures that the radiation-curable coating composition cures faster under the influence of radiation than the known radiation-curable coating composition described by Hoyle et al .
An advantage of the presence of maleimides as a photoactive compound is that it contains a reactive bond that can co-react under the radiation curing conditions. This ensures that in the radiation- curing process the photoactive compound is incorporated in resin and less residual photoactive compound can migrate. Consequently, the environment of the cured coating is contaminated less with residual photoactive compound. EP-A-618,237 describes a coating composition based on an acrylate-functional resin and maleic anhydride. A drawback of the coating composition described in EP-A-618,237 is that it cures slowly, as a result of which the cured coating may also contain residual monomer in addition to residual photoactive compound. An additional advantage of the radiation- curable coating composition according to the invention is that, when it has been cured, the cured resin contains less residual monomer. Another advantage of the presence of tertiary amines in the radiation-curable coating composition according to the invention is that the curing of the surface in the presence of oxygen is better. The radiation-curable resin composition consists of for example a reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-withdrawing group (a) , optionally combined with a reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-donating group (b) or a an allyl group-containing compound connected to an electron-donating group (c) or a mixture hereof (b+c) . The reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-withdrawing group (a) is characterised by the following structural element.

Derivatives of these compounds can also be used, for example esters, urethanes, urea, thiourethanes and anhydrides.
Preferably use is made of the following compounds or combinations hereof: acrylates (X=OR4,

R3=H) acrylamides (X=NR4R5, R^H, R2=H, R3=H) fumarates (X=OR4, Ri=H, R2= COOR6, R3=H) maleates (X=OR4, R^H, R2=H, R3= COORg) itaconates (X=OR4, R-_= CH2COOR6, R2=H, R3=H) citraconates (X=OR4, Rx= CH3, R2=H, R3= COOR6) and mesaconates (X=OR4, R1= CH3, R2= COORs, R3=H) and derivatives hereof such as fumaric amide esters, maleamide esters, fumaric amides. Cyclic structures in which X is connected to R-_, R2 of R3 can also be used. So can derivatives of these compounds, such as esters, urethanes, urea, thiourethanes and anhydrides.
As the reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-donating group (b) use is preferably made of a vinyl ether, a vinyl ester, a vinyl amide, a vinyl amine, a vinyl thioether or a vinyl thioester.
As the allyl group-containing compound connected to an electron-donating group (c) use is preferably made of an allyl ether, an allyl ester, an allyl amine or an allyl amide.
The amount of reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-withdrawing group (a) in the radiation-curable curing resin is between 25% and 100%. The amount of reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-donating group (b) or an allyl group- containing compound connected to an electron-donating group (c) or a mixture hereof (b+c) in the radiation- curable curing resin is between 0% and 75%, depending on the amount of reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-withdrawing group (a) in the radiation-curable curing resin. According to a preferred embodiment, the amount of reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-withdrawing group (a) in the radiation-curable resin is 100%. According to another preferred embodiment the amount of reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-withdrawing group (a) in the radiation-curable resin is 50% and the amount of reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-donating group (b) or an allyl group-containing compound connected to an electron-donating group (c) or a mixture hereof (b+c) in the radiation-curable resin is 50%.
The reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-withdrawing group (a) may be connected to polymers or oligomers via R4. Examples of such polymers or oligomers are polyurethanes , polyesters, polyacrylates, polyethers, polyolefins containing for example units from the group comprising ethylene, propene, butadiene and styrene, hydrocarbon polymers such as (co)polymers of cyclopentadiene, polysilicates, polycarbonates, polyvinyl esters, rubbers such as polyisoprene, natural rubbers and polyepoxides . Copolymers such as polyether urethanes, polyester urethanes, polyether carbonates and polyepoxide esters. Combinations of polymers or oligomers can also be used.
If the reactive unsaturation connected to the electron-withdrawing group (a) has another functionality besides R4, in the form of Rlf R2 or R3, for example C00R6, C0NR6R7, CH2COOR6 or CH2OR6, the reactive unsaturation can be incorporated in the polymer or oligomer chain. Examples of such polymers or oligomers are unsaturated polyesters in which fumarate, maleate, itaconate, citraconate or mesaconate functionalities are incorporated in the structure of the polymer or oligomer. Preferably the number of reactive unsaturations connected to an electron- attracting group in a polymer or oligomer is greater than 1.
The reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-donating group (b) or the allyl group- containing compound connected to an electron-donating group (c) can be bound to the polymers or oligomers described above via ether, ester amine or amide bonds, or, in the case of a bifunctional reactive unsaturation connected to an electron-donating group or a bifunctional allyl compound, it can also be incorporated in a polymer or oligomer chain.
In addition to the reactive unsaturations connected to or in a polymer or oligomer described above, the radiation-curable resin composition may also contain low-molecular compounds containing a reactive unsaturation. These low-molecular compounds contain a* reactive unsaturation in the molecule with side groups that may be aromatic, aliphatic or cycloaliphatic. These molecules may furthermore contain several functionalities, i.e. they may be mono- or multifunctional. Examples of this are ethyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, hexane diol diacrylate, hexane diol dimethacrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate, trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, acrylamides such as acrylamide, N- methyl acrylamide, N-lauryl acrylamide, maleate esters such as ethyl maleate, diethyl maleate, methyl maleate, maleamides such as N,N' -bismaleamide, N,N' -dimethyl maleamide, fumarate esters such as ethyl fumarate, diethyl fumarate, fumaric amides, itaconic esters such as methyl itaconate, dimethyl itaconate, ethyl itaconate, itaconic amides, itaconic imides, citraconic esters such as methyl citraconate, diethyl citraconate, mesaconic esters such as methyl mesaconate, diethyl mesaconate, vinyl ethers such as butyl vinyl ether, ethercyclohexyl ether, triethylene glycol divinyl ether and hydroxybutyl vinyl etherallyl compounds such as allyl alcohol, allyl ether, diallyl ether, allylamine, diallylamine, triallyamine, allyl esters such as acetic allyl ester, adipic diallyl ester and phthalic diallyl ester.
Aliphatic maleimides are characterised in that an aliphatic carbon is connected to the nitrogen atom of the maleimide, as represented in the following structure.

For R-L, R2, R3, independently of one another, a choice can be made from for example the group comprising H, Cx- C20 alkyl, aryl, hydroxy, thiol, amines, ethers, thioethers, esters, thioesters, amides, thioamides, urethanes, thiourethanes and combinations of these functionalities. R l R2, R3 may also form part of ring systems or they may be interconnected in this way, for example so that R!-R2 is C5H10 and R3 is H, i.e. cyclohexyl maleimide.
The aliphatic maleimide may also contain more than one maleimide group, i.e. a bis, tris, tetra, penta, hexa, etc. maleimide. If the aliphatic maleimide contains more than one maleimide group, these maleimide groups may be connected via a chain comprising exclusively carbon. These maleimide groups may also be connected via other functionalities, such as amines, ethers, thioethers, esters, thioesters, amides, thioamides , urethanes and thiourethanes . The other functionalities may form part of oligo (polymer) chains such as polyethers, polyesters, polyurethane, polyethylene. Combinations of functional groups are also possible here, such as a polyether urethane.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention use is made of malei ides with hydroxy, ether, ester or urethane functionalities.
According to another preferred embodiment of the invention the aliphatic maleimide contains more than one maleimide group. According to a third preferred embodiment of the invention the aliphatic maleimide contains more than one maleimide group and a hydroxy, ether, ester or urethane functionality or combinations of these functionalities . The amount of maleimide in the present radiation-curable coating composition is not critical. Preferably the amount of maleimide used in this radiation-curable coating composition is between 0.1 and 15 wt.%, relative to the radiation-curable resin composition. With less than 0.1 wt.% maleimide the radiation-curable coating composition reacts too slowly. With more than 15 wt.% the properties of the cured radiation-curable coating composition are adversely affected.
The tertiary amine may be an aromatic or an aliphatic tertiary amine. An advantage of an aliphatic tertiary amine is that this compound increases the reactivity of the curing reaction to an extra extent while the advantage of an aromatic tertiary amine is that it is much less volatile and is consequently bound better by the cured radiation-curable coating composition.
In addition to the tertiary amine functionality, the tertiary amine may contain other functionalities, for example hydroxy, thiol, ether, ester, nitrile, acrylate, vinyl, urethane and amide functionalities. The tertiary amine may also be a monomer, oligomer or polymer with a tertiary amine functionality. An example of a tertiary amine without other functionalities is triethylamine . Examples of tertiary amines with a hydroxy functionality are N,N- dimethyl ethanol amine, N-methyl diethanol amine (Genocure MDEA, RAHN) and triethanol amine. An example of a tertiary amine with an ether functionality is N- methylmorpholine. Examples of aromatic tertiary amines are 2-ethylhexyl-4-dimethylaminobenzoate (Quantacure
EHA, RAHN) , ethyl-4-dimethylaminobenzoate (Quantacure EPD, RAHN) , 2-dimethylaminoethylbenzoate (Quantacure DMB, RAHN) and 2-butoxyethyl 4- (dimethylamino) benzoate . Examples of oligomer (polymer) tertiary amines are derivatives of the Jeff amines, Actilane 584 (AKCROS) and Actilane 587 (AKCROS) . Examples of tertiary amines with a functionality that can co-react during the radiation curing, such as acrylates or vinyl ether functionalities, are Ebecryl P115 (UCB) , Ebecryl 7100 (UCB) , Genomer 5248 (RAHN) , Genomer 8275 (RAHN) , Genomer 5695 (RAHN) , Actilane 705 (AKCROS) , Actilane
715 (AKCROS) , Actilane 735 (AKCROS) , diethylaminoethyl vinyl ether (DEAVE, BASF) . Derivatives of the tertiary amines mentioned above can also be used, as can mixtures of the tertiary amines mentioned above. The amount of tertiary amine used in a radiation-curable coating composition is not critical. Preferably the amount of tertiary amine used in a radiation-curable coating composition is between 0.1 and 15 wt.%, relative to the radiation-curable resin composition. With an amount of tertiary amine of less than 0.1 wt. % the reaction rate of the curing reaction decreases substantially. With an amount of tertiary amine of more than 15 wt.% the tertiary amine can no longer be bound entirely in the cured radiation-curable coating composition.
The radiation-curable coating composition according to the invention may also contain additives such as pigments, fillers and matting agents.
In addition to the maleimide/tertiary amine combination described above, the radiation-curable coating composition may also contain other photoactive compounds. Other photoactive compounds are ketonic and may be aromatic, such as xanthone, thioxanthone and benzophenone . Other examples of suitable aromatic ketones are Darocure 1173 (2 -hydroxy-2 -methyl-1- phenylpropane-1-one as the active component) , Irgacure 184 (hydroxy-eyelohexyl phenyl ketone as the active component) , Irgacure 369 (2-benzyl-2-dimethylamino-l- (morpholinophenyl) -butanone-1 as the active component) , acylphosphines such as Lucerine TPO (2,4,6- trimethylbenzoyl diphenyl phosphine oxide) . Chemical derivatives and combinations of these photoinitiators can also be used.
According to a preferrred embodiment of the invention xanthone, thioxanthone and benzophenone and their derivatives are employed as photoactive compounds in combination with the maleimide/tertiary amine combination.
The radiation-curable coating composition can be cured by different kinds of radiation, such as UV and EB radiation.
The most prefered irradiation source is ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light is preferably high intensity light to provide a dosage to achieve reasonable curing rates . In the event that lower energy light is applied, it may then be desired to subject the compositions also to elevated temperatures in order to reduce the time for adequate polymerisation to occur.
With respect to UV-curing equipment we refer to, for example, pages 161-234 of Chemistry and Technology of Uv and EB-formulations, volume 1, Oldring
1991. Suitable lamps employed to provide the desired high intensity and availability of wavelength and spectral distribution include for example that available from Fusion systems, Corp. The radiation-curable coating composition according to the invention can be used on different substrates, for example glass, paper, wood, plastic, metals such as aluminium and iron.
The invention will be further elucidated with reference to the following examples without being limited thereto.
The reactions were followed with the aid of real-time IR spectroscopy; the conversion of the double bonds during the photopolymerisation was followed using an infrared machine (Bruker IFS55) . The radiation time required to effect 97 mol.% conversion of the double bonds was taken as the reaction rate.
