Abstract
Water dispersible oil-modified polyesters and oil-free polyesters are formed by the reaction of aromatic dicarboxylic acids, aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and polyols to form the polyester. In oil-free polyesters, oils of the respective fatty acids are excluded but the other reactants are similar to those employed in the preparation of oil-modified polyesters.
Description
This application is a continuation-in-part of application 624,569, filed Oct. 21, 1975, now abandoned.
The invention is directed to oil-modified polyester products, as well as oil-free polyester products. The invention is directed to the novel process for the production of these products. Moreover, the invention is directed to novel compositions realized by using the oil-modified polyesters, or oil-free polyesters, to produce varnishes.
It is generally known that maleic anhydride or trimellitic anhydride can be used to form polyesters which can become water-soluble. The maleic anhydride or trimellitic anhydride act to provide carboxylic sites for aqueous solubilization. The polyesters produced from these reactants are rendered water-soluble by the aid of an amine, a metal oxide, hydroxide or carbonate.
It has been found that a variety of polycarboxylic acids, or their respective anhydrides, can be employed to produce polyester products to effect solubility, in the same manner as maleic anhydride or trimellitic anhydride effect solubility in polyester products.
The polyester products new of the invention are water-dispersible polyesters which may be used as protective coatings systems for industrial and architectural applications.
The invention provides new polyesters which can be formed from compositions containing considerable amounts of monocarboxylic acids; alternatively, the polyesters of the invention can be formed from components with the exclusion of monocarboxylic acids altogether. Some of these new polyesters are commonly known as "oil-free" polyesters.
The polyesters of the invention may be used in improved coating systems for a variety of metal and non-metal substrates and are characterized by superior heat and chemical resistance properties.
Aqueous coatings, formed from a polyester of the invention, have improved flow, wetting, non-foaming characteristics, as well as improved film continuity upon application to particular substrates.
The polyester-resin system, produced in accordance with the invention, includes both oil-modified polyesters as well as oil-free polyesters. Vegetable oils of the drying and nondrying types, or their respective fatty acids, are reacted with a combination of (1) specific aromatic dicarboxylic acids set forth hereinafter; (2) trimellitic anhydride, aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and their anhydrides and cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acids and their anhydrides; and (3) polyols to form the alkyd or the oil-modified polyester. In the oil-free polyesters, oils or their respective fatty acids are excluded but the reactants used to form the oil-free polyesters, are similar to those employed in the preparation of the alkyds.
Another aspect of the invention is directed to the process for producing the oil-free and oil-modified polyesters. It has been discovered that if the aromatic dicarboxylic acid is reacted initially with the polyols (and/or diols), to form an intermediate, and subsequently the intermediate is reacted with the aliphatic (or cycloaliphatic) dicarboxylic acids or anhydrides, or trimellitic anhydride, the process to form the polyesters occurs more readily and at a lower temperature to allow better control of polymer formation.
The invention is also directed to varnishes produced by production of a polyester-triazine system, employing the polyesters of the invention.
The invention is directed to water-dispersible polyesters, and their preparation, and usage in protective coating systems for industrial and architectural applications. Polyestertriazine resin systems formed from the polyesters of the invention, can be used as coreplate enamels and as insulating varnishes. These compositions also show promise as enamel top coats for metals.
These products include both oil-free and oil-modified polyesters. The oil-free products are produced from the reaction of at least three components: (1) an aromatic dicarboxylic acid as set forth hereinafter; (2) an aliphatic carboxylic acid or anhydride or a cycloaliphatic acid or anhydride or trimellitic anhydride; and (3) a polyol having at least three hydroxyl groups and/or a diol. For the oil- or fatty acid-modified polyesters an additional or fourth component is included, and the diol is optional. That is, aromatic polycarboxylic acids or their respective anhydrides, in addition to the conventional maleic anhydride or the like or trimellitic anhydride, have been discovered to be useful in forming the polyesters of the invention. When iso- or terephthalic acid is the sole acid in the polyester, it is extremely difficult to insure that all of the aromatic acid reacts with the polyol at an acid value range of 25 to 90 and to obtain an aqueous solution of that polyester which is clear. Even when solution clarity may be achieved under these circumstances, the package or storage ability suffers after a month or so of aging at normal ambient temperatures. The inclusion of the aliphatic (or cycloaliphatic) dicarboxylic acid or anhydride or trimellitic anhydride overcome these difficulties and its inclusion in the formulation of the polyester results in stabler aqueous solutions of the polyester.
The oil-free polyesters of the invention contain about 35 to 85%, preferably 60-70%, based on the total moles of the dibasic acid (or anhydride thereof) used to form the polyester, of an aromatic dibasic acid of the class defined hereinafter; and 15 to 65 mole percent, preferably 20 to 40 mole percent of an aliphatic dibasic acid (or anhydride thereof) or trimellitic anhydride based on the total moles of dibasic acid used to form the polyester; 20 to 55 mole percent of a diol based on all reactants; and 0 to 35 mole percent of a higher polyol based on total moles of reactants. From 0-50 mole percent or more of the aliphatic dibasic acid can be replaced by trimellitic anhydride. The trimellitic anhydride, for example can be up to 20 mole percent based on all reactants.
The aromatic dibasic acids, which are used in the oil-free products include isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, 4,4'-benzophenone dicarboxylic acid and mixtures thereof.
The other acidic component is trimellitic acid or an aliphatic dibasic acid or anhydride of cycloaliphatic acid or anhydride such as adipic acid, succinic acid, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, dimerized fatty acids, e.g., dimerized linoleic acid, maleic anhydride, maleic acid, fumaric acid, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, hexa hydrophthalic anhydride or 3,6-endomethylene, Δ-4-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride.
Diols which can be used in formulation of the oil-free products include ethylene glycol, 1,4-butylene glycol, propylene glycol, and the like, as well as dipropylene glycol, diethylene glycol, neopentyl glycol, dimethylol hydantoin, cyclohexane dimethanol, hydrogenated bisphenol A, hydroquinone di-(betahydroxyethyl) ether, the diether or propylene glycol and bisphenol A, the diether of ethylene glycol and bisphenol A, and the like.
The polyol, used to form the oil-free polyester can be trimethylol-propane, trimethylolethane, glycerine, pentaerythritol, as well as tris(hydroxyethyl)isocyanurate, tris(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane.
The OH:COOH ratio of the oil-free polyesters may range from 1:1 to 1.3:1.
The oil- or fatty acid-modified polyesters are formed from (1) (a) an unsaturated or saturated fatty acid of considerable chain length, (e.g., having 9 to 18 carbon atoms) wherein the percent of fatty acid in the composition may range from 5 to 60 weight percent, based on all reactant compositions; or (b) 5 to 65 percent by weight of vegetable oil; (2) 30 to 50 percent by weight of the aromatic dicarboxylic acid; (3) 3 to 30 percent by weight of the aliphatic (or cycloaliphatic) dicarboxylic acid; (4) 10 to 27 percent by weight of a polyol having at least three hydroxyl groups and optionally, 0 to 41 percent by weight of diol, usually 0 to 27% of diol. The OH:COOH ratio of oil-modified polyesters in accordance with invention ranges from 1:1 to 1.5:1.
The unsaturated fatty acid, used in forming the oil-modified polyesters can be either conjugated or non-conjugated. Examples of unsaturated fatty acids are linolenic acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, elaeostearic acid, and the like. The saturated monocarboxylic acids which can be used include lauric acid, stearic acid, palmitic acid, isodecanoic acid, pelargonic acid, myristic acid, and the like. In addition, aromatic acids including benzoic acid, butyl benzoic acid, hydroxy-benzoic acid, e.g., salicylic acid, and the like may be employed.
There can be used natural linoleic acid which is normally the non-conjugated type or there can be used conjugated linoleic acid or a mixture thereof, e.g., a mixture in which part of the non-conjugated linoleic acid has been converted to conjugated linoleic acid by heating in the presence of a catalyst.
Mixtures of acids can be employed, e.g., a mixture of oleic acid and linoleic acid containing 11 to 47% oleic acid, as well as natural mixtures obtained by saponification of a fat followed by acidification.
Oils which can be used as the modifying substance in making the oil-modified polyesters include soybean oil, cottonseed oil, linseed oil, safflower oil, corn oil, tung oil, menhaden oil, tall oil, castor oil, palm oil, oiticica oil and the like.
The aromatic dicarboxylic acids which can be used to form the oil- or fatty acid-modified polyester include isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, benzophenone dicarboxylic acid or mixtures thereof. The aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and anhydrides, cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acids and anhydrides can be those previously set forth and of course there can also be used trimellitic anhydride.
The polyols used to form the oil-modified polyesters (as well as fatty acid-modified polyesters) include glycerine, trimethylolethane, trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol, tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and tris(hydroxyethyl)isocyanurate.
Diols which may be used to form the polyesters include neopentyl glycol, diethylene glycol, dimethylol hydantoin, dipropylene glycol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, cyclohexane dimethanol, hydrogenated bisphenol A, hydroquinone di-(betahydroxyethyl) ether, the diether of propylene glycol and bisphenol A, the diether of ethylene glycol and bisphenol A, and the like.
Another aspect of the invention, is the process of forming both the oil-free as well as the oil-modified polyesters of the invention. By way of explanation, when the terminology "oil-modified" is used hereinafter except in the working examples, it is meant to refer to oil-modified polyesters as well as polyesters modified by the fatty acids of such oils of the invention.
In accordance with the process of the invention, the aromatic dicarboxylic acid is reacted initially with the polyols (and fatty acids if employed). This reaction step obviates the problem of the lesser solubility of the aromatic dicarboxylic acids in the reaction medium, particularly isophthalic or terephthalic acid, and their slower reactivity which results in the necessity for higher processing temperatures. In the subsequent step, the aliphatic (or cycloaliphatic) dicarboxylic acid or trimellitic anhydride is reacted with the intermediate formed in the first step, at lower temperatures than temperatures of the first step. The lower temperatures of the second step, namely at 300° to 400° F., and preferably at 320°-375° F., allow for better control of polymer formation. As set forth above, the aliphatic or cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acids are advantageously employed to provide easily solubilizible sites in the form of free carboxyl groups that are subsequently reacted with amines or metal hydroxides to form salts that are soluble in water.
In one embodiment of the process of the invention, the polyol of at least three hydroxyl groups and/or the diol are heated to elevated temperatures of at least 300° F. and then the aromatic dicarboxylic acid is added thereto. Heating of the diol, polyol with at least three hydroxyl groups and aromatic dicarboxylic acid is continued to the point at which distillation commences. The esterification reaction is continued until an acid number of 10 to 20 is attained at 100% solids.
Thereafter, the contents are cooled to a temperature of 300° F. The aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acid or trimellitic anhydride is then added to the contents of the reaction mixture which are at a temperature of about 300° F. Heating is resumed until an acid value range of from 25 to 90 is attained on a sample diluted to 80% solids. This procedure is critical and it is the addition of the trimellitic anhydride, aliphatic (or cycloaliphatic) dibasic acid or anhydride in the second stage of the process which appears to be the crux of the invention.
The advantage of the process is that it results in the possibility of producing polyesters from aromatic dicarboxylic acids which polyesters are reacted at an acid value range of 25 to 90 and which polyesters are characterized by being capable of forming an aqueous solution that is clear. Moreover, the polyesters produced in accordance with the process are characterized by package and storage stability.
When oil-modified polyesters are produced in accordance with the process of the invention, the oil-modifier is added to the reaction vessel, along with the polyol, the diol which is optional and the aromatic dicarboxylic acid in the initial step of the process.
The polyesters of the invention are capable of reacting with amino triazine-aldehyde reaction products to form useful varnish compositions. Preferably, the triazine aldehyde reaction product is hexamethoxy methyl melamine (the reaction product of melamine-formaldehyde and methanol). Other suitable triazines and triazine-aldehyde reaction products including etherified triazine-aldehyde reaction products are shown for example in Widmer U.S. Pat. No. 2,197,357, the entire disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference and relied upon. Thus there can be used trimethoxymethyl melamine, trimethylol melamine, etc.
In order to form the varnish composition, the polyester reaction product which is water dispersible produced in accordance with the process described above is diluted with a solvent to a solids content of at least about 30%, but may range as high as 50%. The solvent may be a polar or oxygenated solvent of the glycol ether, glycol diether or glycol ester types which is capable of being a solvent for the polyester concentrate. In the preferred embodiment set forth below in the examples, the solvents are butoxy propanol, and butoxy ethanol.
Thereafter, the polyester concentrate is rendered watersoluble by admixture and reaction with an amine, metal oxide, hydroxide or carbonate. Preferably an amine is used. Most preferably the amine, dimethylethanolamine is employed. Other suitable amines include ethanolamine, diethanolamine, 2-dimethylamino-2-methyl-1-propanol (DMAMP) 2-amino, 2-methyl, 1-propanol (AMP), N,N-diethyl ethanolamine, N-methyl(diethanol)amine, morpholine, triethanolamine, triethyl amine. Suitable oxides, hydroxides and carbonates include, barium oxides, calcium oxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, barium hydroxide, and calcium hydroxide.
After the polyester has been admixed with the amine, metal oxide, hydroxide or carbonate, the mixture is treated with the triazine aldehyde component. A homogeneous mixture is obtained. Water is added slowly, with stirring. At approximately at least 30% solids content, the resulting varnish solution is clear.
The varnishes of the invention are formed from compositions which contain 25 to 50 percent by weight of a polyester concentrate (of at 30% solids contents usually about 80% solids content). The solubilizing agent, including amines, metal oxides, hydroxides or carbonates is present from 1.5 to 4 percent by weight. The triazine component is added in amounts of 4 to 25 percent by weight of the varnish composition. Water generally forms from about 30 to 55 percent by weight of the total varnish composition. Optionally, other solvents may be included in the varnish composition in amount of up to 30%.
Among the practical commercial advantages of the product of the invention are its superior heat and chemical resistance as compared to most other aqueous water-soluble or latex systems, as well as compared to organic solvent-soluble coatings. Furthermore being an aqueous system it is environmentally less polluting to the atmosphere and the user, and thus meets EPA standards more easily than organic solvent systems since it does not emit any reactive hydrocarbon solvents. Because of its excellent moisture resistance it has electrical properties that are on a par with organic solvent-based coatings. Other benefits include good wetting and adhesion to metal and glass cloth substrates, as well as to wood, fabric, plastic films or composites. Last, but not least, it has package stability that withstands hot and cold cycling for over a year, which latex and other aqueous systems fall far short of achieving.
The examples which follow will serve to elucidate the invention in great detail. The examples are meant to be exemplifications of the invention only and are not to be considered as limiting but are to be construed as encompassing all known alternative equivalents.

To illustrate in greater depth that solubilizing reactants, other than trimellitic anhydride, may be employed a series of polyesters was prepared which was modeled after Example 3 in which all the reactants are the same save for the minor diacid. In Table I the various minor dicarboxylic acids of the aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and bicycloaliphatic types are substituted for trimellitic anhydride on an equimolar basis thusly: see Table I--attached.
Examples 4, 5, 6 and 7 employed the same equipment and processing technique as shown in Example 3. With respect to the processing controls, the following physicals were obtained prior to dilution to 80 percent solids in butoxy ethanol:

Materials (A) and (B) are charged into a five-liter, three-neck round bottom flask equipped with a motor driven stainless steel paddle agitator, a thermometer to record batch temperature, a Dean-Stark connected with a condenser to collect distillate evolved, and an inert gas sparge tube. Heat was applied by means of Glas-Col heating mantle, and inert gas sparged through flask at a high rate. Temperature was rapidly increased to 300° F. and material (C) was added to the flask. Heating was continued and the temperature was raised to 460° F. It was held there for 45 minutes to complete the alcoholysis which was determined by taking a small sample of this mixture and reacting it with the appropriate amount of isophthalic acid in an aluminum dish until clear hot and then clear when cold.
The alcoholysate was cooled to 350° F. and materials (D) and (E) were added to the flask. Esterification was carried on at 390°-400° F., until an acid number of 20.8 on the solids was obtained. After cooling to 300° F. material (F) was added to the flask. The batch temperature was raised to 330°-340° F. and held there until a resin sample thinned to 65 percent solids in butoxy propanol, had attained a viscosity of Z11/2 and an acid number of 43.2. The molten resin was subsequently diluted to 80 percent solids with butoxy propanol.

Equipment and processing techniques are similar to Example 3. Materials (A), (B) and (C) are charged to a five-liter flask, and are pre-reacted to an acid number of 25.2 at 100 percent solids.
The contents of the flask are cooled to 300° F., and material (D) is added to the flask. The temperature is gradually raised to 350°-360° F. and held there until a sample thinned to 75 percent solids in methoxy propanol attains a viscosity of J1/4 and an acid number of 34.2. The resin was used at 100 percent solids in the preparation of the following varnishes, and there was very little or no need of any polar or oxygenated solvents to aid in recoatability wherever two or more coats were needed.

Films prepared from a commercial insulating varnish in accordance with Example 3, Varnish 1, were tested for resistivity by the ASTM test known as "Insulation Resistance", Method 2, ASTM A 344. Franklin values in such test are subject to specimen variations. Among those characteristics that vary are flatness of the steel, film thickness, degree of cure and the kind and the amount of water that may be used to dilute the enamel prior to application.
On C-3 Coreplate, the following were obtained:
(a) Type 3A-0.5 to 0.7 amp. at film thicknesses of 0.05 mil.
(b) Type 3C-0.3 to 0.4 amp. at film thicknesses of 1.0 ml.
(c) Special application for large generators- 0.2-0.3 amp. at thicknesses of 1.5 mil.
These values were obtained using cure temperatures of 700° to 750° F. This cure turns the steel blue. The customer who carried out the test was pleased with the product of the invention because of its overall consistency of performance.
The same basic resin as in Example 3 was also compounded into a pigmented enamel. The formula is as follows:
