Compounds containing both uv-absorber and 1-hydrocarbyloxy hindered amine moieties and stabilized compositions

Abstract: Compounds containing both a UV-absorbing moiety and a 1-hydrocarbyloxy hindered amine moiety are effective stabilizers for protecting polymer compositons against the deleterious effects of actinic light. The UV-absorbing moieties include the substituted 2H-benzotriazoles, s-triazines, acrylates, benzophenones, oxanilides and oxamides.

Description: Compounds containing both a UV-absorbing and a 1-hydrocarbyloxy hindered amine moieties are very effective stabilizers for protecting polymers from the deleterious effects of actinic light. It is known in the art that the concomitant use of a hindered amine light stabilizer with a UV-absorber such as a 2H-benzotriazole provides excellent stabilization in many polymer compositons as summarized by G. Berner and M. Rembold, "New Light Stabilizers for High-Solids Coatings", Organic Coatings Science and Technology, Vol 6, Dekker, New York, 1984, pp 55-85. Molecules containing both a UV-absorber moiety and a hindered amine moiety with an N-H, N-alkyl or N-alkanoyl group are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,289,686; 4,344,876; 4,426,471; 4,314,933; 4,619,956; British Patent Application 2,188,631; and L. Awar, et al, "New Anti-UV Stablizers for Automotive Coatings" (Presented at 1988 Annual Meeting of Federation of Societies for Coatings Technology). The concomitant use of a separate hindered amine molecule and a separate UV-absorber molecule is also taught in U.S. Patent No. 4,619,956. N-Hydrocarbyloxy derivatives of hindered amine light stabilizers are less basic than the corresponding N-H or N-alkyl derivatives. As such, the N-hydrocarbyloxy derivatives offer an important advantage in polymer systems where the basicity of hindered amines generally causes undesired interactions with the polymer system such as cure retardation in high solids thermoset acrylic automotive coatings. The instant N-hydrocarbyloxy derivatives being less basic do not cause cure retardation in such polymer systems. One object of the instant invention is to provide novel compounds which have present in the same molecule a UV-absorbing moiety and an N-hydrocarbyloxy hindered amine moiety. Another object of the instant invention is to provide polymer compositions stabilized against the deleterious effects of actinic light by the presence of an effective amount of a novel compound described supra.

Of particular interest is the utilization of the instant derivatives in a variety of coating systems including ambient cured and acid catalyzed 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. Key improvements include the substantial absence of the cure retardation encountered with N-alkyl hindered amine light stabilizers; the substantial absence of flocculation and dispersion destabilization seen when N-alkyl hindered amines are utilized in certain pigmented coating systems and the absence of adhesion loss between the coating and polycarbonate substrate. Accordingly, the present invention also relates to the use of the instant compounds, optionally together with further stabilizers, for stabilizing ambient cured coatings based on alkyd resins; thermoplastic acrylic resins; acrylic alkyds; acrylic alkyd or polyester resins optionally modified with silicon, isocyanates, isocyanurates, ketimines or oxazolidines; and epoxide resins crosslinked with carboxylic acids, anhydrides, polyamines or mercaptans; and acrylic and polyester resin systems modified with reactive groups in the backbone thereof and crosslinked with epoxides; against the degradative effects of light, moisture and oxygen. Furthermore, 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. These acid catalyzed stoving lacquers are based on hot crosslinkable acrylic, polyester, polyurethane, polyamide or alkyd resins. The acrylic resin lacquers, which can be stabilized against light, moisture and oxygen in accordance with the invention, 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 Par 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, which can be stabilized against the action of light and moisture, 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 against the action of light and moisture 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. The acid catalyzed stoving lacquers stabilized in accordance with the invention are suitable both for metal finish coatings and solid shade finishes, especially in the case of retouching finishes, as well as various coil coating applications. 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 then a covering coat of clear lacquer over it. It is also to be noted that the instant substituted hindered amines are applicable for use in non-acid catalyzed thermoset resins such as epoxy, epoxy-polyester, vinyl, alkyd, acrylic and polyester resins, optionally modified with silicon, isocyanates or isocyanurates. The epoxy and epoxy-polyester resins are crosslinked with conventional crosslinkers such as acids, acid anhydrides, amines, and the like. Correspondingly, the epoxide may be utilized as the crosslinking agent for various acrylic or polyester resin systems that have been modified by the presence of reactive groups on the backbone structure. To attain maximum light stability in such coatings, the concurrent use of other conventional light stabilizers can be advantageous. Examples are the aforementioned UV absorbers of the benzophenone, benzotriazole, acrylic acid derivative, or oxanilide 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. It is also contemplated that the instant compounds will be particularly effective as stabilizers for polyolefin fibers, especially polypropylene fibers, when used in conjunction with other stabilizers selected from the group consisting of the phenolic antioxidants, hindered amine light stabilizers, organic phosphorus compounds, ultraviolet absorbers and mixtures thereof. A preferred embodiment of the instant invention pertains to stabilized compositions comprising (a) an acid catalyzed thermoset coating or enamel based on hot crosslinkable acrylic, polyester or alkyd resins, (b) a NOE-substituted 2,2,6,6-tetralkylpiperidine compound, and (c) a 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 derivatives, phosphorus compounds, such as phosphites, phosphines or phosphonites, 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. Still another preferred combination of the instant stabilizers is with a hydroxylamine in order to protect polypropylene fibers from gas fading. The following examples are presented for the purpose of illustration.

Example 28 Light Stabilization of Polypropylene This example illustrates the light stabilizing effectiveness of instant stabilizers. Polypropylene powder (Himont Profax 6501) stabilized with 0.2% by weight of n-octadecyl 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyhydrocinnamate is thoroughly blended with the indicated amount of additive. The blended materials are then milled on a two-roll mill at 182°C for five minutes, after which time the stabilized polypropylene is sheeted from the mill and allowed to cool. The milled polypropylene is then cut into pieces and compression molded on a hydraulic press at 250°C and 1.2 x 10⁶ Pa into 0.127 mm films. The sample is exposed in a fluorescent sunlight/black light chamber until failure. Failure is taken as the hours required to reach 0.5 carbonyl absorbance by infrared spectroscopy on the exposed films. Each of the instant compounds protect the polypropylene from the deleterious effects of actinic light far longer than the time required for polypropylene to exhibit failure in this test when no stabilizer is present. Example 29 Stabilization of High Solids Thermoset Acrylic Resin Enamel A thermoset acrylic enamel based on a binder of 70 % by weight of a copolymer of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, styrene and acrylic acid and of 30% by weight of a melamine resin in the presence of an acid catalyst, p-toluenesulfonic acid, dinonylnaphthalene disulfonic acid or dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, is formulated to include an effective stabilizing amount of the test hindered amine light stabilizer having also present therein a UV-absorbing moiety. Commercially available epoxy primed 10.16 cm x 30.48 cm panels (Uniprime from Advanced Caotings Technology) are spray coated with a silver metallic basecoat to a thickness of about 0.023 mm and air dried for 3 minutes. The stabilized thermoset acrylic resin enamel is then sprayed onto the basecoated panel to a thickness of about 0.049 mm. After 15 minutes air-drying, the coated sheets are baked for 30 minutes at 121°C. After storage for 1 week in a air-conditioned room, the coated panels are subjected to weathering in a QUV exposure apparatus according to test method ASTM G-53/77. 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. The panels are exposed in the QUV for 1500 hours. The 20° gloss values of the panels are determined before and after exposure. The loss of gloss of the stabilized panels is considerably less than that of the unstabilized control panels.
