Stabilization of coatings with N-hydroxy hindered amines

Abstract: N-hydroxy-substituted hindered amine light stabilizers impart outstanding stabilization properties to coatings based on a variety of resins, the stabilized coatings exhibiting improved durability, weatherability, and the like. Some of them are new compounds.

Description: The instant invention relates to the stabilization of a wide variety of ambient curable or acid catalized thermosetting coating composition by the incorporation therein of N-hydroxy-substituted hindered amine light stabilizers. The invention further relates to the new compounds of this type of hindered amines. Hindered amine light stabilizers are well known to be effective in stabilizing a host of organic substrates including polymers against the deleterious effects of light and oxygen. Such hindered amino light stabilizers have been used in the stabilization of hot-crosslinkable alkyd or acrylic metallic stoving lacquers (US 4,426,472) and in stabilizing acid-catalyzed stoving lacquers based on hot-crosslinkable acrylic, polyester or alkyd resins (US 4,344,876 and 4,426,471). The hindered amino light stabilizers of these patents do not possess structures having a hydroxyl group substituted directly on the hindered N-atom of the compound. EP-A-0082244 and EP-A-0157738 teach the preparation of some N-hydroxy substituted hindered amine derivatives and their ability to stabilise organic polymers against the deleterious effects of light and oxygen. Related hindered amine stabilizers have been utilized individually and in combination with ultra-violet light absorbers to improve the performance characteristics of coating systems. Notwithstanding such improvements, there still exists a need to further retard the photooxidation and photodegradation of coating systems and thereby provide increased effectiveness by maintaining the physical integrity of the coatings. Such effectiveness can be manifested by prevention of embrittlement, cracking, corrosion, erosion, loss of gloss, chalking and yellowing of the coating. It has now been determined that the aforementioned improvements can be achieved by substitution on the hindered N-atom of the hindered amines with hydroxyl groups and the utilization of such derivatives in ambient curable and acid catalyzed thermosettings coating systems. In particular, the physical integrity of the coatings is maintained to a higher degree with significant reduction in loss of gloss and yellowing. Accordingly, the present invention relates to a stabilized ambient curing or acid catalyzed thermosetting coating composition containing an effective stabilizing amount of a hydroxyl substituted hindered amine compound containing the group of the formula where R is hydrogen or methyl.

Resins for ambient curing coatings may be, for example, alkyd resins, thermoplastic acrylic resins, acrylic alkyd resins or polyester resins, or said resins modified with silicones, isocyanates, epoxides, isocyanurates, ketimines or oxazolidines. The resins may be esters of cellulose such as nitrocellulose or cellulose acetobutyrate or the resins may be epoxide resins hardenable with polyamines or other hardeners. Applicable alkyd, acrylic, polyester and epoxide resins are described in S. Paul's "Surface Coatings: Science and Technology" (1985) at pages 70-310. The unmodified and modified alkyd resins which can be stabilized in accordance with the invention, are the conventional resins which are used in trade sales, maintenance and automotive refinish coatings. For example, such coatings are based on alkyd resins, alkyd/acrylic resins and alkyd/silicon resins optionally crosslinked by isocyanates or epoxy resins. In addition various acrylic lacquer coating compositions are disclosed in US 4,168,249. Other acrylic/alkyd resins with polyisocyanate additives are disclosed in US 4,471,083; and acrylic resins containing either pendant amino ester groups or glycidyl groups are described in US 4,525,521. Resins for acid catalyzed thermosetting coatings may be, for example, hot crosslinkable acrylic, polyester, polyurethane, polyamide or alkyd resins. This implies mixtures of those resins or mixtures with crosslinking agents such as melamine resins. The acrylic resin lacquers are the conventional acrylic resin stoving lacquers or thermosetting resins including acrylic/melamine systems which are described, for example, in H. Kittel's "Lehrbuch der Lacke und Beschichtungen", Vol. 1. Part 2, on pages 735 and 742 (Berlin 1972), "Lackkunstharze" (1977), by H. Wagner and H.F. Sarx, on pages 229-238, and in S. Paul's "Surface Coatings: Science and Technology" (1985). The polyester lacquers are the conventional stoving lacquers described e.g. in H. Wagner and H.F. Sarx, op. cit., on pages 86-99. The alkyd resin lacquers which can be stabilized in accordance with the invention, are the conventional stoving lacquers which are used in particular for coating automobiles (automobile finishing lacquers), for example lacquers based on alkyd/melamine resins and alkyd/acrylic/melamine resins (see H. Wagner and H.F. Sarx, op. cit., pages 99-123). Other crosslinking agents include glycoluril resins, blocked isocyanates or epoxy resins. In their industrial uses, enamels with high solids content based on crosslinkable acrylic, polyester, urethane or alkyd resins are cured with an additional acid catalyst. Light stabilizers containing a basic nitrogen group are generally less than satisfactory in this application. Formation of a salt between the acid catalyst and the light stabilizer leads to incompatibility or insolubility and precipitation of the salt and to a reduced level of cure and to reduced light protective action and poor resistance to moisture. The N-hydroxy compounds of the present invention are less basic than the corresponding hindered amine compounds from which they are derived, yet still exhibit undiminished, indeed enhanced, light stabilization efficacy. The ambient curing coatings as well as the acid catalyzed hot curable coatings stabilized in accordance with the invention are suitable both for metal finish coatings and solid shade finishes, especially in the case of retouching finishes. The lacquers stabilized in accordance with the invention are preferably applied in the conventional manner by two methods, either by the single-coat method or by the two-coat method. In the latter method, the pigment-containing base coat is applied first and a covering coat of clear lacquer applied over it. The amount of hindered amine derivative employed is 0.1 to 10 % by weight, based on the solvent-free binder, preperably 0.5 to 5 % by weight. The binders can be dissolved or dispersed in customary organic solvents or in water or can be solvent-free. When used in two-coat finishes, the hindered amine derivative can be incorporated in the clear coat or both in the clear coat and in the pigmented base coat. In the manufacture of acrylic modified alkyd resins or acrylic resins, polymerizable hindered amine derivatives can be polymerized into the resin. The incorporation into the lacquer binder can also, however, be effected via polycondensation in the manufacture of the alkyd or polyester resins. In this cases, there is the additional advantage that the light stabilizers cannot be removed by extraction or migration so that their action is very prolonged. To attain maximum light stability, the concurrent use of other conventional light stabilizers can be advantageous. Examples are UV absorbers of the benzophenone, benztriazole, acrylic acid derivative, or oxalanilide type, or aryl-s-triazines or metal-containing light stabilizers, for example organic nickel compounds. In two-coat systems, these additional light stabilizers can be added to the clear coat and/or the pigmented base coat. If such combinations are employed, the sum of all light stabilizers is 0.2 to 20 % by weight, preferably 0.5 to 5 % by weight, based on the film-forming resin. Examples of the UV absorbers which may be used in the instant compositions in conjunction with the aforementioned hindered amine compounds are: (a) 2-(2'-Hydroxyphenyl)-benzotriazoles, for example the 5'-methyl-, 3',5'-di-tert-butyl-, 5'-tert-butyl-, 5'-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)-, 5-chloro-3',5'-di-tert-butyl-, 5-chloro-3'-tert-butyl-5'-methyl-, 3'-sec-butyl-5'-tert-butyl-, 4'-octoxy-, 3',5'-di-tert-amyl derivative. (b) 2-Hydroxy-benzophenones, for example, the 4-hydroxy-, 4-methoxy-, 4-octoxy-, 4-decyloxy-, 4-dodecyloxy-, 4-benzyloxy, 4,2',4'-trihydroxy- and 2'-hydroxy-4,4'-dimethoxy derivative. (c) Acrylates, for example, alpha-cyano-β,β-diphenyl-acrylic acid ethyl ester or isoctyl ester, alpha-carbomethoxy-cinnamic acid methyl ester, alpha-cyano-β-methyl-p-methoxy-cinnamic acid methyl ester or butyl ester, alpha-carbomethoxy-p-methoxy-cinnamic acid methyl ester, N-(β-carbomethoxy-β-cyanovinyl)-2-methyl-indoline.

Of particular value in the instant compositions are the benzotriazoles of high molecular weight and low volatility such as 2-[2-hydroxy-3,5-di(alpha,alpha-dimethylbenzyl)-phenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-octylphenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3-alpha,alpha-dimethylbenzyl-5-tert-octylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3-tert-octyl-5,alpha,alpha-dimethylbenzylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-amylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole,2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert.butyl-5-(2-omega-hydroxy-octa(ethyleneoxy)-carbonyl)-ethylphenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, 2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert.butyl-5-(2-octyloxycarbonyl-ethyl)-phenyl]-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3-sec.dodecyl-5-methyl-phenyl)-benzotriazole, hexamethylene di[β-(3-tert.butyl-4-hydroxy-5-[2-benzotriazolyl]-phenyl)-propionate] and the 5-chloro compounds corresponding to each of the above named benzotriazoles. Especially preferred is a benzotriazole UV absorber selected from the group consisting of 2-[2-hydroxy-3,5-di(alpha,alpha-dimethylbenzyl)-phenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-octylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3-alpha,-alpha-dimethylbenzyl-5-tert-octylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3-tert-octyl-5,alpha,alpha-dimethylbenzylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-5-tert-octylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-(2-(omega-hydroxy-octa(ethyleneoxy)-carbonyl)-ethylphenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-amylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 5-chloro-2-[2-hydroxy-3,5-di(alpha,alpha-dimethylbenzyl)-phenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, 5-chloro-2-(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert.butyl-5-(2-octyloxycarbonylethyl)-phenyl]-5-chloro-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3-sec.dodecyl-5-methyl-phenyl)-2H-benzotriazole and hexamethylene di[β-(3-tert.butyl-4-hydroxy-5-[2-benzotriazolyl]-phenyl)-propionate]. A preferred embodiment of the instant invention pertains to stabilized compositions comprising (a) a resin system as defined hereinabove, (b) an N-hydroxyl substituted 2,2,6,6-tetraalkylpiperidine compound, (c) an UV absorber selected from the group consisting of the benzophenones, benzotriazoles, acrylic acid derivatives, organic nickel compounds, aryl-s-triazines and oxanilides. Further ingredients which the enamels or coatings can contain are antioxidants, for example those of the sterically hindered phenol derivative type, phosphorus compounds, such as phosphites, phosphines or phosphonites, conventional hindered amine light stabilizers, plasticizers, levelling assistants, hardening catalysts, thickeners, dispersants or adhesion promoters. A further preferred embodiment of the instant invention is a stabilized composition containing components (a), (b) and (c) described above which additionally contains as component (d) a phosphite or phosphonite. The amount of phosphite or phosphonite (d) which is used in the instant compositions is from 0.05 to 2 % by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 1 % by weight, based on the film forming resin. In two-coat systems, these stabilizers may be added to the clear coat and/or base coat. Typical phosphite and phosphonites include triphenyl phosphite, diphenylalkyl phosphites, phenyldialkyl phosphites, tri-(nonylphenyl)-phosphite, trilauryl phosphite, trioctadecyl phosphite, di-stearyl-pentaerythritol diphosphite, tris-(2,4-di-tert.butylphenyl) phosphite, di-isodecylpentaerythritol diphosphite, di-(2,4-di-tert.-butylphenyl)-pentaerythritol diphosphite, tristearyl-sorbitol triphosphite, tetrakis-(2,4-di-tert.butylphenyl)-4,4'-diphenylylenediphosphonite. The stabilizers are needed to impart greater retention of durability to the cured enamels (as measured by 20° gloss, distinction of image, cracking or chalking); the enamel should not yellow on curing and further color change on exposure to light should be minimized; the stabilizers should be soluble in the organic solvents normally used in coating applications such as methyl amyl ketone, xylene, n-hexyl acetate, alcohol and the like. The instant hindered amine light stabilizers substituted on the hindered N-atom by a hydroxy moiety fulfill each of these requirements and provide individually or in combination with a UV-absorber outstanding light stabilization protection to the cured coatings. The following examples describe the inventive use of substituted hindered amine derivatives in various ambient curable and acid catalyzed hot curable resin systems. Parts and percentages are by weight. Example 1: Stabilization of a White, Two-Component Acrylic Urethane Gloss Enamel A white acrylic urethane enamel is formulated as shown below.

Prior to application, the indicated amount of additive (based on resin solids) is added to the paint. After ambient storage for a period of 2 weeks, the coated panels are subjected to weathering for 1790 hours in a QUV tester. In this test, the samples are subjected to weathering for 8 hours in a humid atmosphere and UV light at 50°C and for 4 hours with no UV light at 40°C.

One half of each panel is coated with 3 coats of the unstabilized stain. An equal amount of stain containing 3 % (by weight on resin solids) of light stabilizers is applied to the other half of the panel in three coats. After storage at ambient temperatures for two weeks, the wood panels are exposed outdoors vertically facing south for a period of eight months. The 60° gloss retention of the stabilized and unstabilized section of the same panel are determined. Due to lack of homogeneity of wood substrates, the gloss retention of the same stain tends to differ from panel to panel. In this study, the unstabilized control stain is applied to every panel inasmuch as the differences in gloss retention between the stabilized and unstabilized portions of the panel allow for a better measure of the improvement in gloss due to the presence of the light stabilizer.

The high solids thermoset acrylic resin enamel formulation (Acryloid® AT 400 from Rohm & Haas) is based on hydroxyethyl methacrylate, methyl methacrylate, styrene, butyl acrylate and butyl methacrylate and a melamine curing agent. Pieces of steel sheeting 9 x 30 cm, coated with a primer based on polyester/epoxy resin, are then coated with a silver metallic base coat and finally with the clear finishing enamel. The base coat is sprayed onto the sheet to a thickness of about 20 µm and air dried for 3 minutes. The clear finishing enamel coat is then sprayed onto the sheet to a thickness of about 45 µm. After 15 minutes air-drying, the coated sheets are baked for 30 minutes at 250 °F (121 °C). The stabilizers under test are added to the thermoset acrylic resin finishing enamel before the enamel is sprayed onto the base coated sheet. After storage for 3 weeks in an air-conditioned room (23 °C/50 % relative humidity), the coated sheets are subjected to weathering for 1300 hours according to thest method ASTM G-53/77 in a QUV tester. In this test, the samples are subjected to weathering in repeated cycles for 4 hours in a humid atmosphere at 50°C and then for 8 hours under UV light at 70 °C.

Example 16: The physical properties of Enamel A (as described in Example 14) coated over a silver metallic base coat when cured for 30 minutes at 82°C, the low bake repair temperature, are completely satisfactory as is seen in the table below.

A low change in 20° gloss value shows the coating is not adversely affected by humidity. The cross-hatch type adhesion test involves using a multi-cut knife to prepare cross-hatches through the topcoat film and base coat on the panel. An acetate fiber adhesive tape is placed over the cross-hatch area and then is pulled off. A visual inspection of the amount of topcoat, if any, coming off with the tape as it is pulled gives a relative rating of the amount of delamination. A rating system of 5 indicating the absence of cross-hatch delamination to 0 indicating complete cross-hatch delamination is used. It is clear that the low bake curing at 82°C for the acid catalyzed thermoset enamels containing the N-hydroxy hindered amine light stabilizers is completely adequate. Example 17: The thermoset acrylic enamel of Example 14 including 0.5 % of p-toluenesulfonic acid is formulated to include varying concentrations of a benzotriazole UV-absorber and a hindered amine light stabilizer of the invention. The enamel is coated over a silver metallic base coat pursuant to the procedure in Example 14 and baking is conducted for 30 minutes at 121 °C normal bake temperature. The coated panels are exposed in the QUV exposure apparatus and the time to 50 % loss of 20° gloss is determined. Compound Conc. (% by wt.)

For example, a substantial number of such derivatives are generically disclosed in US 4,590,231. The substituents on the 4-position include ether, ester, amino, dioxaspiro, diaza-dione, urea and triazine substituents, among others. These derivatives are identified as stabilizers in polyolefin compositions. Mono- and di-piperidinyl ester derivatives are likewise disclosed in JP-A 54-69162 for use in stabilizing urethane polymers. Other N-hydroxy derivatives are disclosed in J. Polym. Sci., Polymer Chem. Ed. 22 , 277-281 (1984); Polym. Sci. Technol. 26 , 35-47 (1984); Zh. Org. Khim. 6 , 2365-2369 (1970); as well as in US 3,936,456, US 4,404,302 and US 4,472,547. Accordingly, it is a further object of the instant invention to identify a series of new N-hydroxy hindered amines having a broad range of stabilization performance characteristics. These derivatives thus correspond to the formulae A' or B' wherein R is hydrogen or methyl, preferably is hydrogen m is 1-4; when m is 1, R 1 is wherein x is 0 or 1 and R 4 independently are C 1 -C 8 alkyl, or with y is 2-4; when m is 2, R 1 is wherein D 3 is C 1 -C 18 -alkyl or C 2 -C 18 alkenyl, and D 4 is C 5 -C 12 cycloalkylene; when m is 3, R 1 is a trivalent acyl radical of an aliphatic, unsaturated aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic tricarboxylic acid having up to 20 C-atoms; when m is 4, R 1 is a tetravalent acyl radical of a saturated or unsaturated aliphatic or aromatic tetracarboxylic acid having up to 20 C-atoms; n is 1; R 2 and R 3 are independently hydrogen, C 1 -C 12 alkyl, C 2 -C 12 alkenyl or C 7 -C 12 aralkyl. In these formulae, representative alkyl groups include methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, tert-butyl, n-hexyl, n-octyl, 2-ethylhexyl, n-undecyl and n-dodecyl; aryl includes phenyl and naphthyl; aralkyl includes benzyl, alpha-methylbenzyl and phenethyl; and alkenyl includes 1-propenyl, allyl, methallyl, 2-butenyl, 2-hexenyl and 2-octenyl. R 1 as a trivalent acyl radical is, for example, an acyl radical of benzene-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid. R 1 as a tetravalent acyl radical is, for example, an acyl radical of 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid, 1,2,3,4-but-2-enetetracarboxylic acid and 1,2,3,5- and 1,2,4,5-pentanetetracarboxylic acid.
