Water-based polyurethane-urea polymers having reduced migratory contaminants. The polymers are useful laminating adhesives and primers for flexible packaging having indirect food contact.

Description

- 2201q8j -WATER-BASED POLYURETHANE-UREA LAMINATING
ADHESIVES AND PRIMERS

Background Of The Invention This invention relates to water-based polymers. Specifically, it relates to water-based polyurethane-urea polymers having reduced migratory components. The cosolvent-free water-based anionic polyurethane-urea polymers are particularly suitable for flexible packaging having indirect food contact.
Description Of The Prior Art It is known that water-based polyurethane-urea polymers are useful a&esives and primers for flexible packaging. Generally, NCO-termin~ted polyurethane prepolymers are dispersed in water then chain termin~tedlextended with water soluble amines cont~inin~ primary and/or secondary amines:
U.S. Pat. No. 5,494,960, H.B. Fuller Company, (St. Paul, MN) discloses a method for the plel)aldLion of water-based anionic polyurethane-urea polymers. The NCO-termin~te~l polyurethane prepolymers, based on hindered diisocyanates, are dispersed in water than chain termin~te~/extended with a blend of monofunctional and difunctional amines.
EPA application #95101621.1, Air Products And Chemicals, Inc., (Allentown, PA) disclose l~min~tin~ adhesives wherein isophorone diisocyanate based prepolymers are syIlthesized in ethylenically unsaturated monomers (reactive diluent). The NCO-terminated polyurethane prepolymer/monomer mixture is dispersed in water then chain tçrmin:~te~l/extended with a blend of monofunctional and difunctional amines.
Subsequent free radical emulsion polymerization generates polyurethane-urea/acrylic l~min~ting adhesives.
A drawback to the polymers described in the prior art references relate to extractable amine chain termin~tors/extenders. Extractable amines, which are subject to food additive status as defined by the Food and Drug 2201 9~3 Administration (FDA), can adversely affect the development of l~min:~ting adhesives and primers having indirect food contact.
Other related documents which fail to disclose or suggest l~min~ting adhesives, which are useful in applications having indirect food contact, S include U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,851,459 and 4,883,694, Century Adhesives Corp.
(Columbus, OH), U.K. Pat. No. 1,128,568, Farbenfabriken Bayer Aktiengeselischaft, (Germany) and U.S. Pat. No. 5,250,610, Bayer Aktiengesellschaft (Germany).
Therefore, there remains a need for water-based polyurethane-urea polymers which are substantially free of extractable amine components.

Summary Of The Invention The present invention is directed to water-based anionic polyurethane-urea polymers which are substantially free of extractable amine components.
Said polymers are the reaction product of:
1) at least one water dispersible NCO-terrnin:~te~l polyurethane prepolymer comprising;
(a) at least one polymeric polyol component;
(b) at least one dihydroxy carboxylic acid which is neutralized with a tertiary amine; and (c) at least one diisocyanate;
2) at least one water soluble monoamine chain terminator;
3) at least one water soluble polyamine chain extender; and 4) at least one water dispersible polyfunctional cros.slinking agent.
The present invention further comprises a process for the preparation of water-based anionic polyurethane-urea l~min~ting adhesives and primers comprlsing:
1) Formation of a water dispersible NCO-t~rmin~ted polyurethane prepolymer comprising;
(a) at least one polymeric polyol component;

220 1 9~3 (b) at least one dihydroxy carboxylic acid which is neutralized with a tertiary arnine; and (c) at least one diisocyanate;
2) dispersing the NCO-t~nnin~ted polyurethane prepolymer in S water;
3) chain t~nnin~ting with at least one water soluble monoamine;
then 4) chain extçn(ling with at least one water soluble polyamine; and reacting said polymer with at least one water dispersible polyfunctional cro~.clinking agent immediately before the l~min:lting process.

Surprisingly, the inventive dispersions have reduced particle size and meet FDA requirements as stated in section 175.1395, making them particularly suitable l~min~ting adhesives and primers having indirect food contact.
In order to meet performance requirements, such as adhesion, machinability, clarity, tunnel resistance, humidity resistance, heat resistance and cost, it may be desirable to formulate the polymers of the invention with compatible polymers or copolymers. Said formulations comprising:
1 ) at least one water-based anionic polyurethane-urea polymer of the invention;
2) at least one water dispersible non-polyurethane based polymer including acrylics, vinyl/acrylics, styrene/acrylics, vinyl acetates, vinyl acetate/ethylene copolymers, polychloroprenes, styrene emulsions, styrene-butadiene emulsions, polyurethane dispersions; and 2201 q~

3) at least one water dispersible polyfunctional cros.clinking agent including isocyanates, aziridines, epoxies, carbodiimides and mixtures thereof.
The water-based anionic polyurethane-urea polymers and formulations 5 have good adhesion characteristics on substrates including paper, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, nylon, ethylene vinyl acetate, cellophane, polyvinyl chloride, metalized films, aluminum foil and Surlyn(~), a copolymer from E.I. Dupont, (Wilmington, DE).

10 Detailed Description Of The Invention Ideally, water-based polyurethane-urea l~min~ting adhesives and primers should be free of leachable cor~ ",il-~nt~ when used in l~min~tes having indirect food contact. FDA regulations require organic amine extractables less than 0.50 ~lg/in2 which is approximately 50 ppb.
The polymeric diols, used in the preparation of the NCO-termin~tP~l polyurethane prepolymer, have hydroxyl numbers in a range from about 20 to about 140, and preferably from about 55 to about 110. The polymeric polyols include polyester polyols, polyether polyols, polycarbonate polyols, polyurethane polyols, polyacetal polyols, polyacrylate polyols, 20 polycaprolactone polyols, polyesterether polyols and the anionic polymeric polyols described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,334,690, Hoechst Aktiengesellschaft, Fed. (Germany). Preferred anionic polymeric polyols are generated by reacting cyclic anhydrides (i.e., Phthalic anhydride) with polymeric polyols.
Small amounts of alkylene diols can be used in the ~ a alion of the 25 water dispersible NCO-t~rmin~ted polyurethane prepolymer. The alkylene diol component can have hydroxy numbers in a range from about 111 to about 1250, and preferably from about 950 to about 1250. The alkylene diol component can be present in a range from about 0.1 % by weight to about 5.0%
by weight, and preferably from about 1.0% by weight to about 4.0% by weight 30 based on 100 parts total solids. Examples include diethylene glycol, 2201 Y~

tetraethylene glycol, 1,4-butanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, cyclohexane dimethanol, furan dimethanol, glycerol, bis-(dihydroxyethyl) lauramide, polyethylene ether glycols, poly-1,2-propylene ether glycols, polytetramethylene ether glycols, poly-1,2-dimethylethylene ether and mixtures thereof. The preferred alkylene 5 diols are 1,4-butanediol and 1,6-hexanediol.
The dihydroxy carboxylic acid used in the preparation of the water dispersible NCO-tennin~te~l polyurethane prepolymer are in such quantities that the acid values, as determined by ASTM D-1639-90, are in a range from about 10 to about 30, and preferably from about 15 to about 22. Examples include 2,2-dimethylolacetic acid, 2,2-dimethylolpropionic acid, 2,2-dimethylolbutyric acid and 2,2-dimethylolpentanoic acid. The preferred dihydroxy carboxylic acid is 2,2-dimethylolpropionic acid.
Neutralization of said dihydroxy carboxylic acid is accomplished with suitable amines including trimethylamine, triethylamine, tri-n-propyl amine, tri-n-butyl amine, n-methylpiperidine, n-ethylpiperidine, n-m~lhyl~y,lolidine~
ethyldipropylamine, ammonia and mixtures thereof. The pl~fell~d amine is triethylamine. Conversion of said acid groups to ionic groups (salts) can be accomplished prior to the condensation reaction or immediately before the NCO-termin:~ted polyurethane prepolymer is dispersed in water.
The diisocyanates used in the preparation of the water dispersible NCO-tennin~ted polyurethane prepolymer can include linear aliphatic, cyclic aliphatic, aromatic and mixtures thereof. Examples include ethylene diisocyanate, propylene diisocyanate, hexemethylene diisocyanate, trimethylene diisocyanate, cyclopentylene diisocyanate, cyclohexylene diisocyanate, dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate, phenylene diisocyanate, norborane diisocyanate, toloylene diisocyanate, 2,4'-and the 4-4' - isomers of diphenylmethane diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, tetramethylene diisocyanate, polyethoxylated diisocyanates, polypropoxylated diisocyanates, naphthalene diisocyanate, and the diisocyanates described in U.S. Pat. No.

220 1 98~

3,920,598, Bayer Aktiengesellschaft (Germany). The preferred diisocyanates are selected from the group consisting of tetramethylxylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanates and mixtures thereof.
The NCO-t~rrnin~te~l polyurethane prepolymer is prepared by reacting 5 a stoichiometric excess of diisocyanate with the polyol components. The reactants are in such proportions that the resulting percent isocyanate is in a range from about 1.0% by weight to about 5.0% by weight, and preferably from about 2.0% by weight to about 4.0% by weight based on 100 parts total prepolymer solids. The prepolymer is processed at temperatures in a range from about 70~C to about 110~C, and preferably from about 80~C to about 95~C.
Once the NCO-t~rrnin~ted polyurethane prepolymer has been formed, it is dispersed in distilled/de-ionized water with mild agitation. The water temperature before dispersing is in a range from about 1 5~C to about 30~C, 15 and preferably from about 20~C to about 25~C.
The water-based NCO-terrnin~tecl polyurethane prepolymer is then chain terrnin~tecl with water soluble monoamines; then chain extended with water soluble polyamines. When this sequential addition is used, polymers are produced which are substantially free of amine extractables. This is thus a 20 preferred method. It is surmised incorporation of said amines is influenced by the amine/isocyanate collision frequency. The collision theory of reaction rates is described in "Organic Chemistry", T.W. Graham Solomons, second edition, pages 139-141. The sequential addition also generates dispersions having reduced particle size enhancing stability, coalescing properties and dry 25 times. Additionally, a smaller particle size distribution is important in the development of l~min~tes having improved optical clarity.
The water soluble chain terminator component can include aliphatic monoamines, aromatic monoamines and mixtures thereof. The pler~lled monoamine is monoethanolamine. The monoamine compounds can be added 30 to the aqueous medium at an equivalence ratio of amine active hydrogen to 2201 9~

isocyanate in a range from about 0.01:1.0 to about 0.8:1.0, and preferably from about 0.1:1.0 to about 0.5:1Ø The term "active hydrogen atoms" refers to hydrogens which display activity according to the Zerewitinoff test as described by Kohlerin J. Arn. Chem. Soc., 49, 3181 (1927). The dispersion telllp~ldlllre during chain termin~tion is in a range from about 20~C to about 40~C, and preferably from about 20~C to about 25~C.
The water soluble polyamine component can be selected from the group consisting of diamines, triamines and mixtures thereof. Examples include hydrazine, substituted hydrazines, ethylene diamine, propylene diamine, butylene (li~mine, hexamethylene diamine, cyclohexylene ~ mine, piperazine, 2-methyl piperazine, phenylene diamine, tolylene diamine, xylyldiamine, tris (2-aminoethyl) amine and diethylene triamine. The preferred water soluble polyamines are ethylenediamine and diethylenetriamine. The water soluble polyamine components can be added to the aqueous medium at an equivalence ratio of amine active hydrogen to isocyanate in a range from about 0.1:1.0 to about 0.89:1.0, and preferably from about 0.4:1.0 to about 0.8:1Ø The dispersion temperature during chain extension is in a range from about 20~C to about 40~C, and preferably from about 35~C to about 40~C.
The particle size (mean diameter) of the fully reacted water-based anionic polyurethane-urea polymers are in a range from about 30 nanometer (nm) to about 100 nm, and preferably from about 50 nm to about 70 nm.
The water-based anionic polyurethane-urea polymers have a solids content in a range from about 30% by weight to about 45% by weight, and preferably from about 35% by weight to about 40% by weight.
In order to meet performance requirements such as adhesion, machinability, clarity, tunnel resistance, humidity resistance, heat resistance and cost, it may be desirable to formulate the water-based polyurethane-urea polymers with non-polyurethane based polymer dispersions. The non-22ûl 983 polyurethane based polymers can include acrylics, vinyl/acrylics, styrene/acrylics, vinyl acetates, vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymers, polychloroprenes, styrene emulsions, styrene-butadiene emulsions, polyurethane dispersions and mixtures thereof. The formulations generally have a weight ratio of polyurethane-urea polymer to non-polyurethane polymer in a range from about 90:10 to about 10:90, and preferably from about 75:25 to about 25:75. The water-based formulations have a total solids content in the range from about 60% by weight to about 35% by weight, and preferably from about 50% by weight to about 40% by weight.
Small quantities of water dispersible polyfunctional cro~linking agents can be added. Crosslinking agents can include isocyanates, aziridines, epoxies, carbodiimides and mixtures thereof. The preferred crosslinkin~
agents are polyfunctional aziridines. The crosslinking agents are present in a range from about 1.0% by weight to about 10.0% by weight, and preferably from about 3.0% by weight to about 6.0% by weight, based on 100 parts total solids. It is surmised that when cros~linking agents are added to the adhesive composition, an interpenetrating or interconnected network having crosslinked matrixes is formed. The resulting networks enhance heat, moisture and solvent resistance properties.
The characteristics of the water-based polyurethane-urea l:~min~ting adhesives, primers and formulations can be modified by the addition of surfactants, defoaming agents, fungicides, bactericides and thickening agents.
The present invention is further illustrated by the following non-limiting examples.
The following test method was used:
An extraction study was performed on l~min~te film samples to determine the potential migration of organic amines into food simulating solvents under exaggerated conditions of use. The extraction was performed in triplicate using 95% ethanol (extracting solvent) at approximately 65~C for 30 mimltes, and then at 50~C for 240 hours. A gas chromatography method, -- 2201 q83 g having a limit of detection (LOD) at 0.5 ~lg/in2, was used to determine amine extractables.

Examples Example 1 describes the preparation of an acid grafted polyol used in the preparation of a water-based polyurethane-urea polymer.
To a reaction flask was charged 1330 grams (5.78 hydroxyl equivalence) Voranol~ 230-238 which is a polyether triol from Dow Chemical Company, (Midland, MI) and 278.18 grams (1.87 moles) phthalic anhydride.
The contents were heated to 154~C, using a nitrogen atmosphere and mild agitation, for 1 hour or until an acid number of 34.0 +/- 1.0 was achieved.
Example 2 describes the preparation of water-based polyurethane-urea polymers wherein the amine chain terminators/extenders are blended together before addition.
To a reaction flask was charged 80.0 grams (0.183 hydroxyl equivalence) of the acid grafted polyol described in example 1, 64.6 grams (0.058 isocyanate equivalence) isophorone diisocyanate, 198.5 grams (0.194 hydroxyl equivalence) Rucoflex~ S 1011-55 which is a diethylene glycol/adipic acid based polyol from Ruco Corporation, (Hicksville, NY) and 9.1 (0.09 moles) triethylamine. The m~teri~l~ were heated to 80~C for approximately 2 hours or until the percent isocyanate reached 2.4% by weight based on total prepolymer solids. The NCO-t~rmin~ted polyurethane prepolymer was dispersed in 620.9 grams distilled/deionized water. To the reaction mixture was charged a mixture cont:~ining 2.4 grams (0.039 amine equivalence) monoethanolamine, 3.9 grams (0.13 amine equivalence) ethylene~ mine and 20.0 grams distilled/de-ionized water. The resulting dispersion had a pH of 7.5 and a solids content of 35%.
Example 3 describes the lamin~ting process and extraction testing on the polymer described in example 2.

- 2201 9~3 The adhesive described in example 2 was crosslinked with a water dispersible polyfunctional aziridine, at 2.0% by weight based on total solids, and processed using a geometric C/L 400 coater l~min~tor. Said adhesive was coated on polyester (PET), having a thickness of 0.48 mils, using a line speed of 300 ft/min then passed through a dual zone drying tunnel 74~C. The dried adhesive/PET film was mated, using a combining nip at 414 kPa at a temperature of 80~C, with a secondary film consisting of low density polyethylene (LDPE) having a thickness of 1.0 mils. The l~min~tes were subjected to extraction testing using food simulating solvents at elevated temperatures for an extended period of time. The food simulating solvents were then analyzed for migratory components using trace analysis analytical techniques. The l~min~tes had amine extractables greater than 2.60 ~g/in2.
Example 4 describes the sequential addition of amine chain terminators/extenders for the preparation of water-based polyurethane-urea kqmin~ting a&esives having reduced amine extractables.
The polymer composition and process are exactly as described in example 2 except the NCO-termin:~tecl polyurethane prepolymer dispersion charged with a mixture cont~ining 1.2 grams (0.019 amine equivalence) monoethanolamine and 10.0 grams distilled/de-ionized water. The aqueous dispersion was stirred 4 minutes, then a second mixture cont~ining 4.8 grams (0.16 amine equivalence) ethylene~i~mine in 10.0 grams distilled/de-ionized water was added. The dispersion had a solids content of 36.29%. PET and LDPE films were l~min~ted and tested as similarly described in example 3.
The l~min~tes had levels of amine extractables less than 0.5 ~g/in2.
This produces a polymer with reduced amounts of amine extractables.
Example 4 describes the preparation of a water-based polyurethane-urea polymer based on isophorone diisocyanate.
To a reaction flask was charged 891.02 grams (1.74 hydroxyl equivalence) Rucoflex~ S 102-110 which is a polyester polyol from Ruco 221Jl 983 Corporation, (Hicksville, NY) 68.67 grams (1.025 hydroxyl equivalence) dimethylolpropionic acid, 491.07 grams (4.42 isocyanate equivalence) isophorone diisocyanate and 49.24 grams (0.48 moles) triethylamine. The mixture was heated to 90~C for approximately 4 hours or until the isocyanate content reached 4.5%. The resulting NCO-terminated polyurethane prepolymer was dispersed in 1,142.60 grarns distilled/de-ionized water then charged with a solution co~ g 5.05 grams (0.082 amine equivalence) ethanolamine in 18.71 grams distilled/de-ionized water. After stirring 2 minutes, the dispersion was charged with a solution containing 10.29 grams (0.321 amineequivalence)diethylenetriaminein 18.71 gramsdistilled/de-ionized water. After stirring 2 minutes, the dispersion was finally charged with a solution cont~ining 7.49 grams (0.249 equivalence) ethylene(li~mine in 18.71 grams distilled/de-ionized water. The polymer properties are described below:
pH=7.8 Viscosity = 55 mPa.s Particle size (mean diameter) = 67 nm Comparative Data In example 5, the polymer described in example 4 was chain terminated/extended using a blend of said amines. The dispersion had a mean diameter particle size of 140 nm. Because the particle size distribution increased using a blend of amines, this shows the utility of the sequential addition described in the present invention.
