Coating materials polyester

Materials are also blended with VDC copolymers to improve toughness (211—214). VinyHdene chloride copolymer blended with ethylene—vinyl acetate copolymers improves toughness and lowers heat-seal temperatures (215,216). Adhesion of a VDC copolymer coating to polyester can be achieved by blending the copolymer with a linear polyester resin (217). 

Coating materials may be based on short or medium-oil alkyds (e.g. primers for door and window frames) nitrocellulose or thermoplastic acrylics (e.g. lacquers for paper or furniture finishes) amino resin-alkyd coatings, with or without nitrocellulose inclusions, but with a strong acid catalyst to promote low temperature cure (furniture finishes) two-pack polyurethanes (furniture, flat boards) unsaturated polyester resins in styrene with free-radical cure initiated by peroxides (furniture) or unsaturated acrylic oligomers and monomers cured by u.v. radiation or electron beams (coatings for record sleeves paperback covers, knock-down furniture or flush interior doors). 

Osaka Organic Chemical will embark on volume production of a low-toxicity acrylic ester monomer with extremely low skin irritation, it is briefly reported. Principal applications are as a diluent monomer for UV and EB coating materials and inks, and as a modifier in unsaturated polyester resins, acrylic resins and PVC.

The best performing coatings were the vinyl ester, the bisphenol A epoxy cured with an aliphatic amine, and a novolac epoxy cured with a mixed aromatic/cycl oal i phati c amine. The saturated polyester, and a bisphenol A epoxy cured with a polyamide amine showed significant deterioration of the coating material in the acid, and corrosion of the underlying steel. Two types of novolac epoxies cured with aromatic amines showed intermediate performance. 

Common to these photopolymer products was the use of coinitiators, such as 2-MBO, diacrylate and triacrylate monomers, binders, and other additives as required. In general, the film products were coated on a polyester support and a polyolefin sheet laminated to the coated material, to permit exposure of the films in an oxygen-free environment, as was required to obviate the chain-stopping effect of peroxide formation. 

Unsaturated Polyester Resins. Unsaturated polyester resins are widely used as fiber-reinforced plastics, coating materials, tire cords, films, and casting or molding resins. Organic titanates such as TYZOR TPT, TYZOR TBT, or TYZOR TOT can be used to catalyze the preparation of the resins, which involves the polyesterification of a mixture of a- and p-unsaturated polybasic acids, such as maleic or fumade acid, and alicydic polybasic acids, such as adipic or isophthalic acid with polyhydroxyalcohols (489). 

Conventional industrial coatings materials of the thermoset type are usually acrylic, polyester, epoxy, polyurethane or silicone resins dispersed or dissolved in organic or water/ether-alcohol coupling solvents. They are cured with gas convection or electric IR ovens. The raw materials for the polymers come from petroleum feedstocks which are processed or manufactured into a finished coating system. 

Polymers are used frequently in paints and varnishes. These materials are usually filled with opaque materials and are difficult to separate or analyze by other procedures. Pyrolysis can be used to identify the nature of the paint, to measure quantitatively residual monomers, for quality control, and to examine additives [5, 13, 14]. Paints may contain a variety of polymers and copolymers such as vinyl derivatives, polyurethanes, phthalate polyesters, etc. Varnishes may contain various copolymers, siloxanes, etc. and can have a complex composition. This composition can be successfully analyzed using analytical pyrolysis. For example, the composition of a coating material consisting of the terpolymer poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-butyl acrylate-co-ethyl methacrylate) crosslinked with butoxy melamine resin has been analyzed with excellent results based on various monomer ratios resulting from pyrolysis at 590° C [15]. 

Miscellaneous Extrusion-Applied Polymers. As mentioned earlier, there is a tendency to develop solventless magnet wire enamel formulations, and extrudable polymer systems would fulfill that requirement. There have been reports about extrusion of thin coatings of polyesters over copper wire. At this point, the state of the art allows extrusion of thin insulating films only with thermoplastic materials. The reliable extrusion of uniform and concentric insulating films of approximately 0.001-0.002 in. wall thickness is already an improvement over the more traditional extrusions of polyethylene, poly(vinyl chloride), and several fluoropolymers in much greater wall thicknesses. Because cross-linked insulation is ultimately required for most magnet wire applications, further materials development needs to be done to provide polymer compositions that are both extrudable as thin films and can be cross-linked in an economical process suitable for large-scale industrial application. 

Since the network density is changed by the reaction between epoxide and alcohol or water, the mechanical properties of the resulting polymer are also influenced. This can be used, for example, in the flexibiHzation of dental materials with poly(l,4-butanediol) [11] or coatings with polyester polyols [12]. It is not only alcohols that influence the polymerization kinetics and the properties of the polymer, but also carboxylic acids. By the addition of a polymer with carboxylic acid groups instead of the polyol, a polyester is formed as a reaction product and not a polyether. This was examined in detail by Wu and Soucek [13]. 

Frequent skin contact with paints and coating materials can cause skin disorders, particularly on the hands, in painters and coaters. The lipid-solubilizing properties of the organic solvents may cause or at least promote contact eczema. In particular, paints based on reactive resins (e.g., epoxy and polyester resins) may cause allergic skin disorders. Skin-sensitizing substances include residual monomers and reactive diluents (e.g., acrylates and epoxides) and paint additives (e.g., acid anhydrides. 

It is however, with the more complex and comprehensive investigation of ternary systems that this molecular mechanics approach started to yield results of greater interest on the fundamental principles of adhesion [32]. Ternary systems present two interfaces because they are composed of three molecular species, namely the cellulose substrate, a photopolymerizable primer resin, and a top coat alkyd/polyester varnish [32]. This work was started mainly to address the concept of flexibility of a surface finish system on lignocellulosic materials but led to some unexpected and rewarding results on adhesion too. Examples of the visualization of the conformations of minimum energy of ternary systems are shown in Figs. 4-6. 

In the interfacial polymerization technique, a wall is formed from monomers that are dissolved in the two separated phases (oil and water phase) and they polymerize at the interface of emnlsion droplets. The use of these methods is limited, since the preferred matrix or coating materials are nonrenewable or nonfood grade, such as polyesters, polyamides, polyurethanes, polyacrylates, or polyureas, almost always accomplished by traces of toxic monomers (van Soest, 2007).

The cure reaction in polyester gel coat systems makes them particularly useful model coatings materials since the cure kinetics can be studied by several analytical techniques. The initiation of cure in polyester gel coat resins begins with the decomposition of hydroperoxide (MEKP is predominately hydroperoxide) and the subsequent copolymerization of styrene with the unsaturated groups, either fumarate or maleate, incorporated into the resin backbone. ...
