Description

~ ~J~ 8~
The present invention relates to a resinous composition for a top coat and more specifically, to a resinous composition for a top coat which is particularly useful for the coating of automobile bodies in the so-called two-tone-color coating.

Since a polyester resin can result a coating with excellent film properties as weather resistance, flame resistance, chemical resistance and the like, it is being watched with keen interest in various technical fields and especially in an automobile industry as a resinous vehicle for a top coat. Usually, a polyester resin is compounded with an aminoaldehyde resin and thus obtained composition is applled and baked to give a tough coating being excellent in mechanical properties and inter coat adhesion and the like. Nevertheless, such a composition has scarcely been used in an automobile industry as a top-coat because the coating has the problems of cissing, loss in gloss and in contrast factor, and heretofore proposed polyester resins each has a problem or poor compatibility with amino resin.
Recently, various attempts have been made to improve the properties of an oil-~ree polyester resin. For example, in Japanese Patent ~pplication Kokai No. 20068/81, published February 25, 1981, a large quantity o~ saturated alicyclic carboxylic acid or a combination of a saturated alicyclic polycarboxylic acid and ..

L~
an aromatic polycarboxylic acid are used as acid components of said polyester resin thereby attaining the improvements in cissing, loss in gloss and weather resistance of the coating and compatibility of the resin with an amino plast res~n; and in Japanese Patent Application Kokai Nos. 111864/83 and 111865/83 both published July 4, 1983, a large quantity of alicyclic polycarboxylic acid is used as an acid component and a comparatively long methylene chain is included in either one of dicarboxylic acid or diol component, or in a lactone to be used 10 for the modification of the formed polyester, thereby improving durability, adhesion properties, elongation and softness of the coating. These studies are noteworthy in a sense that they cut a path to the practical use of polyester resin, as a resinous vehicle, in an automobile top coat or coating composition to be 15 applied to flexible materials as fender, bumper and other parts.

In a top coating of automobile bodies and especially in a two-tone-color coating, the main color composition is first applied and baked, and without sanding operation, the second color 20 composition is then applled and baked. At that time there often arises often arises an interface adhesive failure between the first and the second color coatings.

~ ~ ~ 9 ~ ~

This is especially true when a solid color coating composition is applied on a metallic coat, which combination is most important and in great demand at the present moment.

What is worse still, it has been found that the higher the baking temperature of metallic coat, the poorer the two-tone adhesion.

Under the circumstances, it has long been desired to provide a polyester resin composition for a top coat which is excellent in weather resistance, film properties and curing properties, said composition being suitable forming a high build coating and to a two-tone-color coating and especially recoating of solid color onto a metallic coat, and giving an excellent two-tone adhesion over a wide range of baking conditions.
The present invention therefore provides a polyester resin which will fulfill the abovesaid requirements.

According to the invention there is provided a reslnous composition for a top coat comprising a polyester resin modified with a lactone, said polyester rcsin being composed of alcohol and acid components, lO to 80 mole ~ of the acid component being an alicyclic polycarboxylic acid or anhydride thereof and lO to 100 mole ~ of the carboxyl groups capable of developing a resinous acid value being derived from a polycarboxylic acid showing a titration midpoint potential in a non-a~ueous potentiometric titration, under the state being incorporated into the resin, of -350 mV or more, and said lactone being represented by the formula:

.
. .

.
' o O-~CH2)n~C=O

in which n is an integer of 4 to 10, and included in an amount corresponding to 5 to 30~ by weight of the total weight of the resin.

The lactone modlfied polyester resin of the present invention may be successfully and advantageously prepared by using a similar, but slightly modified method as described in Japanese Patent Application Xokai No. 4054/84. That is, a polyester resin having as acid components (a) mole of a saturated alicyclic polycarboxylic acid (A), (b) mole of a polycarboxylic acld (B) whose titration midpoint potential in non-aqueous potentiometric titration, under the state being lncorporated into the resin, is -350mV or more, and (c) mole of other poly- and/or mono-carboxylic acid (C) (wherein a+b+c=l.o mole; 0 < c mole and 10 < a x 100 < ~0 mole %) a+b+c is prepared by the combination of steps or reacting an acid mixture of (a) mole of the acld (A), (b-bl) mole of the acid (B) o and (c) mole of the acid (C), with a polyhydric alcohol to obtain a polyester prepolymer haviny a resinous acid value of M, in which M = N(l-x/100) and then adding (bl) mole of the acid (~) and continuing the esterification until it reaches to a resinous acid value of N.
In the abovesaid statement, (bl) is equal to (b) or less than (b), and denotes the molar amount of said (B) acid to be charged at~a later stage, which is determined by the following equation:

- x N x W
bl = 10,0 , ,, X --~ . p 5610~ f l - 100 wherein N stands for the resinous acid value (KOH mg required for the neutralization of lg of resinous solid matter); W is the weight of polyester resin; f is the number of Eunctional groups possessed by (B); P is the reaction percentage of (B) at the later charging stage; x is the mole% o~ (~) occupied in the carboxyl groups capable of developing a resinous acid value and determined in a range of 10 ~ x < 100.
Thus obtained polyester resin which i5 composed of alcohol and acid components, l0 to 80 mole% of the acid component being an alicyclic polycarboxylic acid and 10 to l00 mole%
of the carboxyl groups capable of developing a resinous acid value being derived from a polycarboxylic acid which will show a titration midpoint potential in a non-aqueous .~, potentiometric titration, under the state being incorporated into the resin, of -350mV or more, is then reacted with a lactone of the formula:

y~c=o wherein n is an integer of 4 to 10 in amount corresponding to 5 to 3~% by weight of the total weight o~ the resin, to obtain the present lactone modified polyester resin.
Amotlg the said acid components, examples of saturated alicyclic polycarboxylic acid (A) are cyclohexane ring beariny alicyclic acids as, for example, l,l~cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid, hexahydrophthalic acid and its anhydride, 1,3-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid, 1,4-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid, methylhexahydrophthalic acid and .its anhydride, hexahydrotrimellitic acid and its anhydride, and hexahydro-2-methyl-trimellitic acid and its anhydride.
Examples of polycarboxylic acid (~ aving the titration midpoint potential in non-a~ueous potentiometric titration, under the state being incororated into a resin, of -35~mV or more are aromatic polycarboxylic acids as phthalic anhydride, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, trimellitic anhydride, pyromellitic anhydride and the like. Such polycarboxylic acid per se will, in general, show, when made an electric potential-TBAH titer curve from the test results of non-aqueous potentiometric titration, a curve having multi-stage inflection points, and however, when incorporated in to a polyester chain, at least one carboxyl group will remain in a free state and the corresponding curve will have the diminished number of inflection points, accordingly.
Under such conditions, if a polycarboxylic acid is possessed of such acid strength that the aforesaid titration midpoint potential is -350mV or more, then such a member may advantageously be used for the object of the present invention.
As the acid components, other poly- and/or mono-carboxylic acids (C) than the abovesaid (A) and (B) may be present, if desired. Such acid (C) may be any of the members customarily used as an acid component of polyester resin, including aliphatic or partially saturated alicycllc acids, like succinic acid and its anhydride, adipic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, maleic anhydride, fumaric acid, itaconic acid and the like.
Futhermore, monocarboxylic acids as benzoic acid, p-t-butyl benzoic acid and the like may be added for the purpose of regulating the molecular weight of the resin.
The polyhydric alcohol component to be reacted with said acid mixture is not of specific type and suitably selected from the members customarily used for the preparation of polyester resins. Examples of such members are ethyleneglycol, diethyleneglycol, propyleneglycol, neopentylglycol, 1,2-bu~yleneglycol, 1,3-butyleneglycol, ~,3-butyleneglycol, 1,4-butyleneglycol, 1,6-hexanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, ~,5-hexanediol, trimethylolethane, trimethylolpropane, glycerin, pentaerythritol, diglycerin, sorbitol, 1,4-cyclohexane dimethanol and the like.
AS already stated, the present acid controlled modified polyester resin must be of the nature such that 10 to 80 mole% of the total acid components be occupied by said saturated alicyclic polycarboxylic acid (A) and 10 to 100 mole% of .the carboxyl groups capable of developing a resinous acid value be derived from polycarboxylic acids (~) having a titration midpoint potential in a non-aqueous potent.iometric titration, under a state such that carboxylic acid is capable of developing a resinous acid value, of -~50mV or more. This is because, if the content of saturated alicyclic polycarboxylic acid is less than 10 mole~ of the total acid components, weather resistance may not be improved, whereas if it exceeds the upper limit of 80 mole~, the chamical resistance be lowered. As to the ratio oE carboxyl groups responsible for the development of the resinous acid value, if the amount of said polycarboxylic acid having the specified cid strength is less than 10 mole%, then there is a general trend towards producing coating of insuEficient gloss and curing properties and hence, the object of the present invention cannot be attained.
In an actual preparation of said acid controlled modified polyester resin, a polyester prepolymer is first prepared by using an acidic mixture of said acid (A) and poly- and/or mono-carboxylic acid (C) including, as desired, a part of the polycarboxylic acid (B), together with a polyhydric alcohol, and to thus obtained polyester prepolymer, the whole or remaining parts of the acid (B) is then added and the esterification is continued to obtain the intended product. As to the amounts of polycarboxylic acid (B) to be charyed in the first and in the second stage of reaction, the later charging amount (bl mole) is calculated beforehand from the abovesaid equation using a number of valiable, i.e.
(f): number of functional groups possessed by the acid (B), (N): resinous acid value, (W): weight oE the resin, (x): mole% oE the carboxyl groups derived from the acid (B) occupied in the total carboxyl groups capable of developiny resinous acid value, and (P): reaction percentage o the later charging acid (B), and the amount (b mole) o said acid (B) to be charged in the first stage is determined as (l-bl) mole.
Incidentally, in the abovesaid equation, the reaction percentage (P) is the value showing the meaning of what % of carboxyl groups in the polycarboxylic acid ~B) should be reacted in order that the acid is surely incorporated into the polyester chain through an esterification, and said (P) is, for example, 50% or more in the case of dicarboxylic acid as phthalic anhydride, and about 34% or more in the case of tricarboxylic acid as trimellitic acid.
The esterification of polycarboxylic acids with a polyhydric _ 9 _ .

o alcohol may be carried out in a conventional way and no particualr technique is required therefor.
In a preferred embodiment, the esterification shall be continued until the resinous acid value comes to 1 to 135 in the first step for obtaining a polyester prepolymer and to 1 to 150 in the second step for obtaining an acid controlled modified polyester resin. As to a number average molecular weight of the polyester resin, it may be freely selected in the range which is cornmon in the heretofore proposed polyester resins for coatiny use.
In this way, an acid controlled modified polyester resin having alcohol and acid components, 1~ to ~0 mole% of said acid component being an alicyclic polycarboxylic acid (A) and 10 to 100 mole% of the carboxyl yroups capable of developiny a resinous acid value being derived from a polycarboxylic acid (B) showing a titration midpoint potential in a non-a~ueous potentiometrlc titration, under the state being incorporated into the resin, of -350 mV or more, can be obtained.
According to the present invention, the abovesaid polyester resin is then reacted with a lactone of the formula:
O-(CH2)n-cl=o wherein n is an integer o~ 4 to 10, to obtain an acid controlled, lactone-modified polyester resin.
Examples of said lactone are ~-caprolactone, ~-enantholactone, ~-caprylolactone, and their ring substituted derivativ~s. Particularly preferred members are the lactones having 6 to 8 carbon atoms.
Lactone modiEication may be carried out in a conventional way by adding a lactone to the abovesaid acid controlled modified polyester resin and heating the mixture.
At this time, the added lactone is rin~-opened and reacted with a hydroxyl goup of said polyester resin to give a lactone modified resin.
In this reaction, it is preferred to use a catalyst as tin compounds, or~anic lead or manganese salts, and the like.
Particularly preferred members are the tin compounds of the formula:
X X / X' sno or Sn X , X X' wherein X stands for an alkyl, an aryl, an aralkyl, or an aryloxy group, and X' is an alkyl, an aryl, an aralkyl, an acyloxy, a haloyen or hydroxyl group.
As, for example, tetraphennyl tin, tetraoctyl tin, diphenyl tin dilaurate, tri-n~butyl tin hydroxide, tri-n-butyl tin acetate, dimethyl tin oxide, dibutyl tin oxide, dilauryl tin oxide, di-n-butyl tin dichloride, dioctyl tin dichloride and the like, and lead acetate, manganese acetate, lead 2-ethyl hexane acetate, lead salicylate, lead benzoate and the like.
The lactone moiety of thus obtained polyester resin is believed, under the state incorporated into the polyester chain, to produce an optimum flexibility oE the resin. The :

::

presence of lactone in the polyester resin is, thus, important in this invention and however, the lactone amount should preferably be limitted in a range corresponding to 5 to 30~ of tlle total weight of the resin. This is because, if the lactone amount is less than 5% by weight of the total resin, it is unable to get the desired elongation, Erichsen test results and impact resistance, and if it is over the upper limit of 30~ by weight of the total resin, there will give a coating with inferior properties especially in respect of tensile strength, hardness, chemical resistance and water resistance. These are undesirable for the intended object of having a resinous composition for a top coat.
The present resinous composition has many desirable properties as follows.
~ince an alicyclic polycarboxylic acid is used as a part of acid component oE the polyester resin, an excellent weather resistance is given to the coating.
Since the resin is modified with a lactone, impact resistance of the coating is greatly improved.
From the abovesaid two characteristics, an improved solubility is given to the resin and hence a high solid coating composition can be formulated with the present resinous composition.
Since a reactive hydroxyl group is given to the resin by the lactone modification and the carboxyl groups capable of developing a resinous acid value are controlled in kind, the reactivity of the resin towards curiny with a crosslinkiny agent as aminoaldehyde resin, isocyanate compound and the like is yreatly improved.
Eurthermore, very surprisinyly, it has been found that the present resinous composition has an excellent two-tone adhesion especially in the case of a solid color coating on a metallic coat. Thus, the present resinous composition is an ideal resinous vehicle for a top coat composition to be used in two-tone color coating.
The exact reasons why the present resinous composition can give an excellent two-tone adhesion have not been found yet, and however, the following two might do much toward the same in cooperation witll each other. That is, since an alicyclic polycarboxylic acid and a lactone are included as constituting elements oE the resin, wetting pro~erty of the coatiny composition towards a clear coat customarily applied onto a metallic coat is yreatly improved.
Secon~ly, when a solid color coating is baked at a higher temperature and then allowed to cool to a room temperature, a yreat internal stress is inevitably generated by shrinking within the coatiny and however, when the lactone is included in the polyester resin, the abovesaid internal stress is greatly relieved by the presence o~ methylene chain of said lactone. These however, should not be taken as being limitative for the present invention.
; The present inventors have also found that a similar ~ resinous composition having the desired properties can be .

provided even i~ the base resin, i.e. oil-free ~olyester resin, is replaced by an alkyd resin whose oil lenyth is up to 3~ of the total weight of the resin. Therefore, the term "polyester resin" as used herein denotes both of an oil-free polyester resin and an alkyd resin whose oil length is up to 30~ of the total weight of the resin.
The invention shall be now more fully explained in the following Examples~ Unless otherwise being stated, all parts and percentages are by weight.

Thus obtained coating composition was diluted with a mixed solvent of Solvesso 100/toluene/methyl isobutyl ketone/butyl acetate = 60/20/10/10, to a viscosity of 23 seconds/No.4 Ford Cup (20C).

, For the subsequent test purpose, the coatiny substrates were prepared as Eollows.
~PC-l du11 steel plate was degreased, treated with zinc pllospllate, subjected to a cationic electrodeposition and then coated with an inter coat.
Eor 2-tone adhesion test, thus coated plate was further applied with a metallic coat, by using 2 coat 1 bake system with an acrylic resin/melamine resin based metallic coating composition.
The metallic coat was baked at 180C for 3U minutes.
Onto thus prepared coating substrates, i.e. steel plate with an inter coat and steel plate with a metallic coat, the abovesaid diluted top coat composition was spray-coated so as to give a dry film thickness of 3~ to 40~ , and the coated plates were, after standlng ~or a defined period of time, baked at 14~C for 3U minutes. Thus obtained coatings were tested and evaluated as Eollows.
1) E`inishing appearance Finishing appearance was evaluated by visual observation of glossr cissing and surface condition of the coating. l`est results are given as O --no such defects X .- some defects, no yood 2) Pencil hardness test 3) Impact strenyth test ~u Pont type ~ = 1/2" 500g
4) accelerated weather resistance test 6~ gloss retention (%) was determined after haviny - 26 ~

o subjected to ~unshine Weather-O-meter for 20~ hours.
5) Baked residue test 1.59 o~ the diluted coatiny composition (viscosity: 23 seconds/No. 4 Ford Cup, 20C) was heat-dried at lU5C for 3 hours and the baked residue was determined.
6) Two-tone adhesion test Cross-cuts with lmm width cut were made in lcm square coating with a rager and peel test was carried out with a @~ ~e JI~7ph~ 2~ e,~a~a~c) ;X3~ 4~h~e tape. The result was evaluated by the number of peeled out coatings in lcm square.
The test results are shown in Table 2.
Examples 13 to 22 Using the lactone modified polyester resin varnishes B to K
obtained in Examples 2 to 11, white colored coating compositions were prepared as in Example 12. However, in Example 16 usiny the lactone modified polyester resin varnish E, the following was used in place of the formulation Table B.
Table C

(methylolated melamine) Thus obtalned coatiny compositions were applied onto the coating substrates and evaluated in the same way as stated in Example 12. The test results are shown in Table 2.
Comparative Examples 7 to 12 Usiny the polyester resin varnishes L to Q obtained in Comparative Examples 1 to ~, the coating compositions were prepared as in Example 12. The amounts of varnishes were controlled so as to give a defined amount of resin content.
These compositions were applied to the coating substrates and evaluated as ln Example 12. The test results are shown in Table 2.
