Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to a process for producing a graft copolymer by reacting an ethylenically unsaturated monomer with a fluorine-containing resin. Recently, from the viewpoint of saving resources and saving energy, there have strongly been desired coating compositions excellent in weather resistance, that is, providing maintenance-free coating film even in paint industry. Heretofore, acrylic resins have been used in fields wherein weather resistance is required, but a further improvement is required now. Further, the acrylic resins have defects in that they are generally poor in drape with pigments having higher oil absorbing properties, particularly they are remarkably poor in pigment dispersion as to carbon black and the like pigments, they require a longer time to obtain uniform dispersion, they cause pigment separation during storage. In order to improve the pigment dispersibility, it is proposed to synthesize an acrylic resin in the presense of an alkyd resin having unsaturated carbon-carbon double bonds. The resulting resin is improved in the pigment dispersibility but inferior in weather resistance and chemical resistance to the acrylic resins before modified. On the other hand, there are known fluorine- containing copolymers having as essential components fluoroolefin, hydroxyalkyl vinyl ether, alkyl vinyl ether and cyclohexyl vinyl ether. These fluorine-containing copolymers are excellent in weather resistance, but poor in pigment dispersibility and initial gloss. In order to improve such defects, it is proposed to produce a graft copolymer by polymerizing an ethylenically unsaturated monomer in the presence of a fluorine-containing copolymer mentioned above to which reactive carbon-carbon double bonds were introduced (Japanese Patent Unexamined Publication No. 59-41315). The resulting graft copolymer is excellent in the weather resistance, pigment dispersibility and initial gloss, but has defects in that it is insufficient in compatibility with the ethylenically unsaturated monomer and its polymer, the graft copolymer solution is often clouded, the pigment can disperse but is easily separated from the resin component. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of this invention to provide a process for producing a graft copolymer excellent in weather resistance as well as transparency and pigment dispersibility. This invention provides a process for producing a graft copolymer which comprises polymerizing 99.5 to 0.5% by weight of an ethylenically unsaturated monomer (B) copolymerizable with double bonds of the following resin (A) in the presence of 0.5 to 99.5% by weight of a fluorine-containing resin(A) having reactive double bonds via a urethane linkage in an amount of 0.001 to 0.025 mole per 100 g of the resin (A). DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The fluorine-containing resin, the component (A), should have reactive double bonds in an amount of 0.001 to 0.025 mole, preferably 0.002 to 0.015 mole, per 100 g of the resin (A). When the amount is less than 0.001 mole, the graft polymerization becomes difficult when polymerized together with the component (B). On the other hand, when the amount is more than 0.025 mole, gelation easily takes place during the polymerization. The double bonds should be bonded via a urethane linkage. By taking such a structure, the graft copolymer obtained is excellent in the transparency and pigment dispersibility. As the component (A), it is preferable to use a fluorine-containing resin having a weight average molecular weight of about 1000 to 200,000, more preferably about 10,000 to 100,000. When the molecular weight is too low, there is a tendency to lower the weather resistance and chemical resistance. On the other hand, when the molecular weight is too high, there is a tendency to easily bring about gelation at the time of reacting the component (A) with an isocyanate group-containing polymerizable adduct, or at the time of polymerizing the component (B). The fluorine-containing resin, the component (A), can be produced by reacting a fluorine-containing copolymer having hydroxyl groups mentioned below with a polyvalent isocyanate compound having two or more isocyanate groups, and an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having one or more hydroxyl groups. In this process, it is preferable to react the polyvalent isocyanate compound with the hydroxyl group-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer to prepare an isocyanate group-containing polymerizable adduct, which is then reacted with the fluorine-containing copolymer having hydroxyl groups. As the polyvalent isocyanate, there can be used compounds having two or more isocyanate groups such as hexamethylene diisocyanate, tolylene diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, lysine diisocyanate, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 2,2,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate, cyclohexylmethane diisocyanate, methylcyclohexane diisocyanate, isopropylidene bis(4-cyclohexylisocyanate), hexamethylene diisocyanate derivatives, and a trimer of isophorone diisocyanate containing an isocyanurate ring. Among them, preferable ones are diisocyanate compounds having isocyanate groups with different reactivity such as 2,2,4-trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate, and tolylene diisocyanate. As the hydroxy group-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer, it is preferable to use an ethylenically unsaturated monomer having one hydroxyl group. Examples of such a monomer are hydroxyalkyl acrylates such as 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate, and 2-hydroxybutyl acrylate; hydroxyalkyl methacrylates such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate, and 2-hydroxybutyl methacrylate, ; N-methylolacrylamide, and N-methylolmethacrylamide. It is preferable to react the polyvalent isocyanate with the hydroxy group-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer in amounts of 1.0/0.5 to 1.0/0.7 in equivalent weight ratio in terms of isocyanate group of the former/hydroxyl group of the latter. Unreacted hydroxyl group-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer may be retained in the reaction system. The reaction temperature is usually 0 to 150°C, preferably 40 to 100°C. In the reaction, it is possible to use a urethane reaction catalyst such as dibutyl tin dilaulate, or the like. Further, it is possible to use a polymerization inhibitor such as bis(2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-phenyl)methane, and hydroquinone. The reaction is preferably carried out in a suitable organic solvent. As the solvent, there can be used methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, and Cellosolve acetate. The fluorine-containing resin used as the component (A) can also be produced by reacting a hydroxyl group-containing fluorine-containing copolymer with the above-mentioned isocyanate group-containing polymerizable adduct. The polymerizable adduct can be obtained by reacting so as to have 0.001 to 0.025 mole of double bond per 100 g of the hydroxyl group-containing fluorine-containing copolymer. The reaction is preferably carried out at a temperature of 20 to 150°C, preferably 40 to 100°C, in an atmosphere or in a stream of an inert gas such as a nitrogen gas. The reaction time is preferably from 30 minutes to 5 hours. In the reaction, it is possible to use the above-mentioned urethane reaction catalyst and polymerization inhibitor. The reaction is preferably carried out in the solvent mentioned above. The fluorine-containing resin used as the component (A) can further be obtained by reacting a hydroxyl group-containing fluorine-containing copolymer with an isocyanate group-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer. The reaction can be carried out in the same manner as mentioned above. As the isocyanate group-containing ethylenically unsaturated monomer, there can be used isocyanoalkyl acrylates such as isocyanomethyl acrylate, isocyanoethyl acrylate, and isocyanobutyl acrylate; isocyanoalkyl methacrylates, such as isocyanomethyl methacrylate, isocyanoethyl methacrylate, and isocyanobutyl methacrylate. The hydroxyl value (or number) of the hydroxyl group-containing fluorine-containing copolymer is usually 0.57 to 250, preferably 3 to 120. When the hydroxyl number is too small, the introduction of double bonds becomes insufficient. On the other hand, when the hydroxyl number is more than 250, turbidity takes place when dissolved in a solvent to readily lower water resistance of a coating film obtained therefrom. The copolymer preferably contains the fluorine in an amount of 1 to 60% by weight. Preferred embodiments of the present invention are disclosed in the claims 5 and 7. Examples of the fluorine-containing copolymer are those obtained by copolymerizing a fluoroethylene such as monofluoroethylene, difluoroethylene, chlorotrifluoroethylene, tetrafluoroethylene, or 1,1-bis(trifluoromethyl)ethylene; hydroxyethyl vinyl ether, hydroxypropyl vinyl ether, hydroxybutyl vinyl ether, hydroxypentyl vinyl ether, hydroxyhexyl vinyl ether and the like hydroxyalkyl vinyl ether wherein one or more hydrogen atoms in the alkyl or vinyl group are replaced by one or more fluorine atoms; ethyl vinyl ether, propyl vinyl ether, butyl vinyl ether, hexyl vinyl ether or the like alkyl vinyl ether wherein one or more hydrogen atoms in the alkyl or vinyl group are replaced by one or more fluorine atoms; or cyclohexyl vinyl ether or the like cycloalkyl vinyl ether wherein one or more hydrogen atoms in the alkyl or vinyl group are replaced by one or more fluorine atoms. Examples of hydroxyalkyl vinyl ethers wherein one or more hydrogen atoms in the alkyl or vinyl group are replaced by one or more fluorine atoms are CF₂=CF-o-CH₂OH, CF₂=CF-o-CF₂-CH₂OH,and CF₂=CF-o-(CF₂)₂-(CH₂)₂-OH. The above-mentioned copolymer may contain as other copolymerizable components ethylene, propylene, isobuytylene, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, vinyl acetate, n-vinyl lactate, methyl methacrylate, ethylenically unsaturated monomers having at least one carboxyl group such as unsaturated acids such as maleic acid, fumaric acid, acrylic acid, and methacrylic acid, carboxyalkyl vinyl ethers such as carboxyethyl vinyl ether, and carboxypropyl vinyl ether, or fluorine-substituted compounds thereof, and carboxyalkyl oxyalkylvinyl ethers or fluorine-substituted compounds thereof. In the above-mentioned copolymer, it is preferable to use the fluoroethylene so as to be contained in an amount of 40 to 60% by mole, and to use the hydroxyalkyl vinyl ether so as to make the hydroxyl number 0.57 to 250, particularly preferably 3 to 120, and to make the acid number of the carboxyl group 0 to 20, particularly preferably 1.0 to 10. When the content of fluoroethylene is too small, the improvement in weather resistance is insufficient, whereas when the content is too much, there bring about difficult problems in industrial production. When the hydroxyl number is less than 0.57, the introduction of double bonds becomes insufficient, whereas when the hydroxyl number is over 250, the solubility in an organic solvent is readily limited due to an increased use amount of the hydroxyalkyl vinyl ether. From the viewpoint of the solubility in the organic solvent, it is preferable to use the hydroxyalkyl vinyl ether in an amount of 15% by mole or less. On the other hand, when the acid number is more than 20, the solubility in the organic solvent is readily limited. It is preferable to use a cycloalkyl vinyl ether and an alkyl vinyl ether as a total in an amount of 5 to 60% by mole in the fluorine-containing copolymer used as the component (A). When the amount of the cycloalkyl vinyl ether and the alkyl vinyl ether is too small, the above-mentioned copolymer becomes difficult to be dissolved in an organic solvent. On the other hand, when the amount is too much, the using amount of the fluoroolefin or hydroxyalkyl vinyl ether undesirably decreases. It is particularly preferable to use cyclohexyl vinyl ether and alkyl vinyl ether so as to make the content 5 to 45% by mole, respectively. It is preferable to use other components in amounts of 30% by mole or less. As the component (B), there can be used at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer copolymerizable with the double bonds of the component (A). Examples of the component (B) are alkyl acrylates such as methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, isopropyl acrylate, and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate; alkyl methacrylates such as methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, isopropyl methacrylate, and 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate ; styrene or styrene derivatives such as vinyltoluene, α-methylstyrene, and chlorostyrene; acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, vinyl chloride, vinyl acetate, dialkyl maleates such as dimethyl maleate. It is also possible to use polymerizable monomer having one or more hydroxyl groups such as hydroxyalkyl acrylates, e.g., 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate, and 2-hydroxybutyl acrylate; hydroxyalkyl methacrylates, e.g., 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate, and 2-hydroxybutyl methacrylate; monoacrylates or monomethacrylates of polyhydric alcohols, e.g., glycerin, and trimethylolpropane; N-methylolacrylamide, N-methylolmethacrylamide, or alkyletherified compounds thereof. If necessary, it is possible to use unsaturated amides such as acrylamide, and methacrylamide ; polymerizable monomers having an oxirane group such as glycidyl methacrylate, and glycidyl acrylate; α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids and alkyl esters thereof such as acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, and monoalkyl maleate. When the contents of the unsaturated amide and the polymerizable monomer having an oxirane group are too much, there is a tendency to lower water resistance of coating film produced therefrom or the kind of reaction solvent is limited. Thus, these monomers are preferably used in amounts of 30% by weight or less based on the total weight of the components (A) and (B). Further, when the content of the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid is too much, there is a tendency to lower water resistance of the coating film. Therefore, it is preferable to use the α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid in an amount of 10% by weight or less based on the total weight of the components (A) and (B). The graft copolymer can be obtained by polymerizing the component (A) in the presence of the component (B) using the component (A) in an amount of 0.5 to 99.5% by weight and the component (B) in an amount of 99.5 to 0.5% by weight. If the weight ratio of the components (A)/(B) is less than 0.5/99.5, the weather resistance and chemical resistance of the coating film are lowered, whereas the ratio is more than 99.5/0.5, dispersibility of pigment, drying properties, compatibility with other resins are lowered. It is preferable to use the components (A) and (B) in amounts of 10 to 90% by weight and 90 to 10% by weight, respectively. The hydroxyl number of the graft copolymer can be adjusted by controlling the hydroxyl number of the component (A) and using amount thereof, and the using amount of the hydroxyl group-containing polymerizable monomer used in the component (B). The acid value (or number) of the graft copolymer can be adjusted by controlling the acid number of the component (A) and the using amount of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acid in the component (B). The polymerization of the component (B) in the presence of the component (A) can be carried out, if desired, by using an organic solvent such as toluene, xylene, methyl isobutyl ketone, butyl acetate, ethyl acetate, Cellosolve acetate, butyl Cellosolve, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, 1-propanol, and 2-propanol, as a reaction solvent, and a polymerization initiator. Examples of the polymerization initiator are peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide, di-tert-butyl peroxide, and cumen hydroperoxide; azobis compounds such as azobisisobutyronitrile, . The polymerization can be carried out at 50 to 200°C for 1 to 10 hours with heating. The reaction is preferably carried out in an atmosphere or in a stream of an inert gas such as nitrogen gas. In order to make the amount of unreacted monomer smaller, it is preferable to use both an azobis compound and a peroxide together. The graft copolymer thus produced can be used as a lacquer composition by dissolving it in an organic solvent, or as a curing type coating composition by properly combining with a curing agent known as a curing agent for acrylic resin coating compositions. In the case of using the graft copolymer as a coating composition as mentioned above, it is possible to add inorganic pigments such as titanium white, cadmium yellow, and carbon black, organic pigments such as phthalocyanine series pigments, and azo series pigments, depending on purposes. If necessary, the coating composition may contain one or more antioxidants, ultraviolet absorbers, photo stabilizers, or pigment dispersants . These pigments are preferably used by well kneading with the graft copolymer previously. The resulting coating composition is suitable for coating wood, metals, slates, and roof tiles. As the organic solvent for use in the coating composition, those used for the graft polymerization can be used. The solid resin content in the coating composition can be changed depending on purposes, and preferably in the range of 20 to 50% by weight.

The graft copolymer per se is excellent in transparency and pigment dispersibility.
