Description: TITLE SOLVENT BASED COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING A SUBSTANTIALLY NON-GELLED POLYMERIC COMPOSITION TECHNICAL FIELD This invention relates to solvent based compositions containing a polymeric composition that is a highly functional polymer with a relatively high molecular weight and which is substantially free of gelling. The solvent based compositions of this invention are particularly useful in or as coatings, adhesives, inks, primers, and overprint varnishes. BACKGROUND ART Solvent based compositions containing various polymeric ingredients are well known. Such compositions have often been used as coating compositions, adhesives, primers, overprint varnishes and the like. However, the characteristics and properties achieved in such applications is highly dependent on the polymeric ingredient. Block copolymers are one such polymeric ingredient. Block copolymers having an A(BA) n structure are well known. For example, U.S. Patent No. 5,362,819, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference, describes an ABA curable block copolymer with an A block that is an unsaturated polyester, preferably having a mono-, or less desirably a di-, hydroxyl, carboxylic or amine end group, and a B block that is a flexible polymer having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 0°C or less. The flexible polymers are said to include those prepared from conjugated diene monomers, as well as polyethers or saturated polyester, which are linked to the A block by an ester, amide, urea or urethane group. U.S. Patent No. 4,347,339, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference, describes a water soluble cationic block copolymer having a first polymer block having amino functional groups, a majority of which are quaternary amino groups, and a second polymer block having amino functional groups, a majority of which are not quaternary amino groups. The polymer blocks may be linked with bridges of other polymers, but are preferably linked by including a functional group such as a chloride or epoxide in the first polymer block that reacts with the amino functional groups of the second polymer block. U.S. Patent No. 4,851,474, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference, describes a block copolymer comprising at least one polyester block and an elastomeric polymer block such as a polymer of one or more conjugated dienes. The elastomeric block is functionalized to incorporate only terminal functional groups, i.e. , no more than 2 functional groups per polymeric block. U.S. Patent No. 5,008,334, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference, describes resins containing an ABA block copolymer having an A block which is a reaction product of a diol and one or more diepoxides and a B block of an epoxy-capped, carboxyl-terminated polybutadiene or polybutadiene/acrylonitrile copolymer. Amine resins which are prepared from a resin that is a mixture of (i) the reaction product of a diol and at least one diepoxide and (ii) the ABA block copolymer are used in electrocoating formulations. U.S. Patent No. 5,314,954, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference, describes aromatic polyester-polystyrene block copolymers produced by the polycondensation of styrene polymers having terminal functional groups, e.g. hydroxy, amino or carboxyl groups, with an excess of aromatic dicarboxylic acid dihalides and then subjecting the resulting condensation product to interfacial polymerization with aromatic dihydroxy compounds. These aromatic polyester-polystyrene block copolymers are said to have a minimum of uncopolymerized styrene and to be useful for the preparation of optical instruments . Polyester block copolymers that provide an elastic yarn having a high elastic recovery and a high heat resistance are disclosed by U.S. Patent No. 5,384,184, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. The polyester block copolymer comprises (A) 30 to 90% by weight of polyester segments comprising a benzenedicarboxylic acid as the main acid component and a diol having 5 to 12 carbon atoms between the hydroxyl groups as the main glycol component and (B) 70 to 10% by weight of polyester segments comprising an aromatic dicarboxylic acid as the main acid component and ethylene glycol, trimethylene glycol, tetramethylene glycol or 1,4- cyclohexane dimethanol as the main glycol component. U.S. Patent No. 5,496,876, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference, describes a polyetheramide block copolymer constituted by the copolycondensation of polyamide polymers having reactive end groups with polyether sequences having reactive end groups. These polyetheramide block copolymers are blended with a styrene/diene copolymer to form thermoplastic polymeric compositions. U.S. Patent No. 4,180,528, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference, describes an ABA type block copolymer having an A block that is an addition polymer and a B block that is a linear saturated polyester. The A block and B block are joined by addition polymerization. European Patent Application Publication No. 0687690/A, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference, describes a high temperature polymerization process to produce terminally unsaturated oligomers having relatively low molecular weights. It is further disclosed that the terminally unsaturated oligomers having a carboxylic acid group can be reacted with polyfunctional alcohols having two or more alcohol functionalities to form polyesters. There is, however, no disclosure of terminally unsaturated oligomers having relatively high functionality. A solvent based composition containing at least one polymeric composition that is highly functional, preferably having high acid functionality, as well as a high molecular weight, but which does not readily gel would be highly desirable. SUMMARY DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION This invention is related to solvent based compositions comprising (i) a non-aqueous solvent and (ii) a polymeric composition comprising the reaction product of an A polymer which is an addition polymer having 3.5 or more reactive functional groups per polymer chain and a B polymer having about 2 to about 3 functional groups per polymer chain that are co- reactive with the reactive functional groups of the A polymer. Preferably, substantially all of the co- reactive functional groups of the B polymer are co- reacted. More, preferably, the reactive functional groups of the A polymer are condensation reactive functional groups. Generally, the molar ratio of A polymer to B polymer is about 3:1 to about 2:1.7. Preferably when the B polymer is difunctional then the molar ratio of the A polymer to B polymer, based on the number average molecular weight (Mn) of the two polymers, is about 2:1 to about 2:1.7. When the B polymer is trifunctional then the preferable molar ratio of the A polymer to B polymer is about 3:1.

In a preferred embodiment, the A polymer has 3.5 or more carboxylic acid functional groups per polymer chain. Most preferably, this A polymer is a low molecular weight styrene/acrylic acid/α-methylstyrene polymer. In another preferred embodiment, the A polymer has 3.5 or more hydroxyl functional groups per polymer chain.

Preferably, the B polymer is a condensation polymer selected from the group consisting of polyamide, polyester, epoxy, polyurethane, polyorganosiloxane and poly (ether). It is also preferable that the co-reactive functional groups of the B polymer are hydroxyl, epoxy, oxazolinyl or amino. The polymeric compositions used in the solvent based compositions of this invention are high functional polymers with a relatively high molecular weight that are unexpectedly free of gelling or gel particles. Such polymeric compositions have a broad molecular weight distribution which enhances their utility and performance characteristics. The solvent based compositions of this invention may be employed as coatings, adhesives, inks, primers, overprint varnishes and the like.

At least one of the ethylenically unsaturated monomeric units of the addition polymer must have a reactive functional group such as a condensation reactive functional group, preferably a carboxyl group, hydroxyl group, or epoxy group, most preferably a carboxyl group or hydroxyl group. Exemplary acid- functional ethylenically unsaturated monomers include but are not limited to aconitic acid, acrylic acid, beta-carboxymethyl acrylate, cinnamic acid, crotonic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, maleic acid, methacrylic acid, and mixtures thereof. Also suitable are certain monomers that are said to contain so-called "latent" acid moieties, such as cyclic anhydrides. Accordingly, a suitable cyclic anhydrides include but are not limited to itaconic anhydrides, maleic anhydride, and mixtures thereof. Monomers of acrylic or methacrylic acid are most preferred. The condensation reactive functional group is preferably a part of the ethylenically unsaturated monomer, although it may, if desired, be added to the addition polymer after formation of the polymer. Preferably, the addition polymer used as the A polymer is an acrylic copolymer or a styrene/acrylic acid or styrene/ (meth) acrylic acid copolymer, more preferably a styrene/ -methylstyrene/acrylic acid copolymer. Generally, the preferred styrene/acrylic acid addition polymer is comprised of from 10 to 90% w/w styrene, and 10 to 90% w/w acrylic acid. The styrene may be replaced or admixed with α-methyl styrene if desired. As used herein "% w/w" is percent by weight of the total polymer weight unless stated to the contrary. Another preferred addition polymer used as the A polymer is a hydroxy acrylate or methacrylate copolymer or a styrene/hydroxy acrylate or styrene/hydroxy methacrylate copolymer, more preferably a styrene/hydroxy acrylate (or methacrylate) /acrylate (or methacrylate) copolymer. Yet another addition polymer that may be employed as the A polymer in the polymeric composition employed in this invention are hyperbranched polymers such as disclosed in copending U.S. Patent Application [Docket No. J-2583] entitled "Process for Producing Hyperbranched Polymers", the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein. Such hyperbranched polymers having terminal ethylenic unsaturation would preferably have 3.5 of more condensation reactive functional groups per hyperbranched polymer. Typically the addition polymer is a low molecular weight polymer between about 500 to about 50,000 Mn, preferably about 900 to about 3,000 Mn. As noted previously, the condensation-reactive functionality of the addition polymer must be at least 3.5 or greater, and is preferably between about 3.5 and about 20, most preferably between about 3.5 and about 10. The preparation of addition polymers is well known to those skilled in the art, and includes gas phase polymerization, solution polymerization, batch polymerization, continuous reactor or tube polymerization, suspension polymerization and emulsion polymerization. Methods of preparing such addition polymers are described in U.S. Patent No. 4,413,370, U.S. Patent No. 4,529,787 and U.S. Patent No. 4,546,160, the disclosure of each of which is incorporated by reference herein. The B polymer of the polymeric compositions employed in this invention has about 2 to about 3 functional groups that are co-reactive with the reactive functional groups of the A polymer. The preferred functional groups of the B polymer include: hydroxyl, carboxyl, epoxy, oxazolinyl and amino groups, although any group that is co-reactive with the reactive functional group of the A polymer is contemplated within the scope of this invention. The B polymer may be an addition polymer or condensation polymer, but preferably is a condensation polymer. The condensation polymer may be a polyamide, polyester, poly (ether), polyurethane or the like. The preparation of condensation polymers, like that of addition polymers, is well known to those skilled in the art. For example, polyesters may be prepared using common techniques of fusion processes with a glycol excess along with a tin catalyst. Polyamides may be readily prepared using a fusion process, without catalysis. The preparation of polyesters or polyamides generally requires the use of polycarboxylic acids. Exemplary polycarboxylic acids include, without limitation, adipic, azelaic, benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride, 1, 4-cyclohexane dicarboxylate, chlorendic anhydride, dimer acids, fumaric acid, glutaric acid, hexahydrophthalic anhydride, itaconic acid, isophthalic acid, maleic acid or anhydride, phthalic anhydride, sebacic acid, suberic acid, succinic acid, terephthalic acid, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, trimellitic anhydride, alkanyl succinic anhydride, 5-sodiosulfoisophthalic acid, or 5-lithiosulfoisophthalic acid. Generally, the preparation of polyester glycols will employ components such as 1, 3-butanediol, 1, 4-butanediol, cyclohexanedimethanol, diethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, 2, 2-dimethyl-l, 3-pentane diol, 2-butyl-2-ethyl- 1,3-propane diol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, pentaerythritol, trimethylol ethane, trimethylol propane, tris (hydroxy ethyl) isocyanurate, 1,6- hexanediol, 1, 5-pentanediol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, hydrogenated Bisphenol A, glycerin, 2 methyl-1, 3-propane diol or the like. In the preparation of polyamides, the polyamine functional components typically may be chosen from ethylene diamine, hexamethylene diamine, 2-methyl-l, 5 pentane diamine, isophorone diamine, methylene dicyclohexyl amine, trimethyl hexamethylene diamine or the like. The starting acids are polymerized fatty acids, which are mixtures of monobasic acids (C18) , dibasic fatty acids (C36) and trimer or polybasic fatty acids (C54 or higher) , dicarboxylic acids including aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, and aromatic dicarboxylic acids such as oxalic, glutaric, malonic, adipic, succinic, sebacic, azelaic, suberic, pimelic, terephthalic, 1,4 or 1, 3-cyclohexane, naphthalene, phthalic, isophthalic, dodecanedioic dicarboxylic acids. Preferred dicarboxylic acids are straight chain aliphatic diacids having at least 6 carbon atoms and more preferably 6 to about 22 carbon atoms such as sebacic, dodecanedioic, and azelaic dicarboxylic acids. Mono carboxylic acids may be added to control the molecular weight. Preferred monocarboxylic acids are linear and have 2 to 22 carbon atoms. Most preferred are stearic and oleic acids. The diamines used in the preparation of the polyamide may be one or more of the known aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic diamines having from about 2 to about 20 carbon atoms. Preferred are the alkylene diamines such as ethylene diamine, 1, 3-diaminopropane, 1, 4-diaminobutane, p-xylene diamine, 1, 6-hexamethylene diamine, cyclohexyl amine, bis ( 4-cyclohexylamine) methane, 2,2' -bis (4- cyclohexylamine) propane, polyglycol diamines, isophorone diamine, m-xylene diamine, cyclohexylbis (methylamines) , polyoxyalkylenediamine (sold by Huntsman under the trade name Jeffamine) , 2-methyl-l, 5-pentane diamine, 1, 4-bis- (2-aminoethyl) benzene, dimer diamine, polyether diamines, methylpentamethylene diamine, and piperazine. The preferred diamines are straight chained aliphatic diamines of 2 to about 20 carbon atoms, especially ethylene diamine and hexamethylene diamine, and cycloaliphatic diamines, especially 4-4 ' -methylenebis (cyclohexylamine) and piperazine. Mono amines may be added to control the molecular weight. Preferred mono amines are linear and have 2 to 22 carbon atoms. Most preferred are stearyl and oleyl amines . The condensation polymers may also include mono functional compounds to control functionality. For example, a mono acid such as benzoic acid, p-tertbutyl benzoic acid, veratic acid, rosin, lauric acid, fatty acids such as those made from soya, linseed, tall and dehydrated castor oils may be employed in the preparation of polyesters while mono amines such as stearyl amine, tallow amine and cyclohexyl amine may be employed in the preparation of polyamides. Preferred polyamide compositions employ nylon type monomers such as adipic acid and 2-methyl-l, 5-pentane diamine or dimer acid based monomers using dimer acid with isophorone diamine. Preferred polyester monomers include isophthalic acids and cyclohexyl dicarboxylates along with common glycols such as 3-methyl-l, 3- propanediol, 2, 2-dimethyl-l, 3-propanediol, and cyclohexane dimethylol. The polymeric compositions used in this invention may be prepared by the polymerization of the previously described A and B polymers at a reaction temperature and for a time sufficient to form the polymeric composition. Preferably the reaction is a step growth polymerization reaction, i.e., a condensation polymerization reaction. Yet another embodiment of this invention is directed to the process of preparing the polymeric composition by reacting an A polymer which is an addition polymer having 3.5 or more reactive functional groups (preferably condensation reactive functional groups) per polymer chain with a B polymer having about 2 to about 3 functional groups per polymer chain that are co-reactive with the reactive functional groups of the A polymer. Preferably the reaction is conducted at a temperature and for a time sufficient to form the polymeric compositions by reacting substantially all the co-reactive functionality on the B polymer. Preferably, when the B polymer is difunctional, then the molar ratio of A polymer blended with the B polymer is about 2:1 to about 2:1.7. When the B polymer is trifunctional, then the molar ratio of A polymer blended with B polymer is preferably about 3:1. The preferred blending ratio when a mixture of difunctional and trifunctional B polymer is employed can be readily ascertained by those skilled in the art. The temperature and time of the reaction will depend on the A and B polymers. For example, if condensation of A and B is by esterification then the reaction temperature may reach 240°C or higher, while if condensation is through the formation of urethane linkages, then room temperature may be all that is necessary. The reaction temperature of the process for preparing the polymeric compositions is generally between about -50 °C to about 300 °C, preferably from about 150 °C to about 240 °C . The reaction temperature should not exceed the decomposition temperature of either the A polymer or the B polymer. Typically the reaction temperature is maintained from 0.5 to about 6 hours . If desired, solvents and catalysts may be employed in the preparation of the polymeric composition of this invention. The use of such solvents and catalysts is well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. It is important that the A and B polymers be compatible with each other to provide adequate mixing. If the polymers are not compatible, then solvent or staged addition of the polymers may be employed to overcome this. Solvents that are well known to those skilled in the art are also useful in controlling viscosity and permitting appropriate mixing when high temperatures can not be used. In addition, small amounts of solvent may be used for products of reaction such as xylene to azeotrope off water. The molecular weight of the polymeric compositions employed in this invention are generally broad. Both high weight average molecular weight (Mw) and z-average molecular weight (Mz) are possible, while the number average molecular weight (Mn) is typically not as high. The polymeric compositions employed in this invention are preferably high molecular weight polymeric compositions prepared from low molecular weight polymers in the substantial absence of gel. Without being bound to the theory, it is believed that the functionality of the reacting polymers is responsible for the absence of gel. The resulting polymeric compositions used in this invention may take the form of block copolymers, e.g. ABA block copolymers. However, the polymeric compositions of this invention are not restricted to block copolymers, but may result, for example in highly branched or complex polymers that may not be considered block copolymers . Generally, the weight average molecular weight of the polymeric compositions used in this invention range from about 4,000 to about 250,000, more preferably between about 5,000 to about 50,000 as measured by gel permeation chromatography using polystyrene standards. In addition, the preferred polymeric compositions having acid functionality typically have an acid number between about 40 to about 200. As will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art, the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the polymeric compositions can be readily varied by altering the monomeric make up of the A and B polymers. Typically the average Tg is -50°C to 120°C, although the end use generally dictates the type of Tg that will be sought. INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY This invention is related to the preparation of industrially useful solvent based compositions containing substantially non-gelled polymeric compositions as described herein. The polymeric compositions used in this invention are admixed with a solvent or solvent system. Further, the polymeric compositions may be used in conjunction with other components which are miscible or immiscible. The solvent cut compositions of this invention are particularly useful as coatings, overprint varnishes, floor finishes, adhesives, paper inks, primers, film printing inks and film primers. The solvent based compositions of this invention may be prepared by mixing the above described substantially non-gelled polymeric composition with the desired solvent or solvent system. It is also possible to prepare the solvent based composition by in situ preparation of the substantially non-gelled polymeric composition in the desired solvent or solvent system. The particular loading depends on the polymeric composition and solvent or solvent system used. Generally, the amount of solvent in the solvent based composition is typically in a range between about 5 to about 95 percent weight of the composition, Preferably about 5 to about 60 percent by weight of the composition. The non-aqueous solvents that are useful in this invention are wide ranging. Exemplary solvents include ketones, such as methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, methyl amyl ketone and diisobutyl ketone, esters such as butyl acetate and amyl acetate, aromatics such as toluene, xylenes and higher boiling mixtures of aromatics, aliphatics such as mineral spirits, odorless mineral spirits and VMP naphtha, and glycol ethers such as butyl ether of ethylene glycol and butyl ether of diethylene glycol. The solvent choice is dependent upon the end use and the selection thereof is well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. Significantly, the polymeric compositions employed in the solvent based compositions of this invention tend to have a broader solubility range than just a single A or B polymer type. The solvent based compositions of this invention may contain additional components, the nature of which will depend on the particular application of the composition. For example, the inventive compositions may contain cross-linking agents, defoamers, slip additives, colorants, wetting agents, pigments or colorants, waxes and the like. Those of ordinary skill in the art will be able to readily ascertain such additional components for use in the solvent based compositions of this invention depending on the application thereof, e.g.. coating, adhesive, ink, primer and the like. This invention will be better understood from the Experimental Details which follow. However, one skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the specific methods and results discussed are merely illustrative of the invention and no limitation of the invention is implied.

Table C ND = NOT DETERMINED; AV = acid value Coatings Examples SC-1 and SC-2, and Comparative Examples SC-CM-1 and SC-CM-2 Examples SC-1 and SC-2 are solvent based resin compositions containing the high Mw polymeric composition described in Table C, Example V. Comparison examples SC-CM-1 and SC-CM-2 are compositions made with J-569, a hydroxy functional acrylate resin available from S.C. Johnson Polymer, Sturtevant, Wisconsin. A comparison example similar to SC-CM-2, but also containing linear polyester III described in Table B was prepared. However, this comparison as well as those with the polyester only, i.e., no hydroxy functional acrylate, were not coatable due to the crystallinity of the polyester. Each composition was prepared by mixing the polymeric components with a melamine cross-linking agent (Cymel 303 available from CYTEC Industries, West Paterson, New Jersey) , methyl amyl ketone, para-toluenesulphic acid (0.5 wt. % based on total resin solids), methanol (10 wt . % based on total resin solids), DC57 (a silicone slip additive available from Dow Corning, Midland, Michigan); 0.1 wt % based on total resin solids) to provide a composition having about 55% weight solids. The cross-linking agent was present at a ratio of 88% polymeric component to 12% cross-linking agent. The constituents of SC-CMl, SC-1, SC-CM2 and SC-2 are set forth in Table D. Table D The formulations were coated onto Bondrite 1000 (ironphosphate treated steel) panels and baked for 30 minutes at 150°C to provide a coating having a dry film thickness of 1.5 ± .01 mils. The coatings were subjected to a reverse impact test using a reverse impact instrument with 5/8" balls subjecting the back of the panels to forces ranging from 10 inch lbs to 160 inch lbs in steps of 10. The results of each impact test were examined using a magnifier of approximately 2x magnification with halogen lamp illumination. Each impact test was assigned a rating from a worst rating of 0 to a best rating of 10, where 10 represented no crack formation. Coatings are commonly rated by the highest inch-pounds that pass, i.e., crack free. The results of the test on the coatings that were prepared are set forth in Table SC-A. Table SC-A Additional physical tests were performed and the results are tabulated in Table SC-B. Three runs each were made for the Konig Hardness tests. All the panels were measured in run #1, then repeated, as opposed to making 3 measurements on one panel at a time. The average for the three runs is tabulated as well as the standard deviation. The pencil gouge hardness test tabulates the highest pencil which did not peel the coating from the substrate. The Dry Film Thickness was gauged using an Elcometer 256FN (t2) with 2.17 mil calibration foil. The Relative Humidity was approximately 54% measured with a Cole Palmer Hygrometer, 3309-50. The test data are summarized in Table SC-B. In addition, Mandrel Bend test results, coating viscosities, and resistance to methyl ethyl ketone test results are tabulated. Table SC-B The results show that the solvent based compositions of the present invention provide excellent coatings. In particular, the results indicate that coatings prepared with the solvent based compositions of this invention provided better flexibility than the coatings prepared with a hydroxy functional acrylate resin. In addition, the solubility of a blend of a linear polyester and a hydroxy functional acrylate was different than the polymeric composition comprised of the same. Thus, the solvent based compositions of the present invention may be used to overcome solubility problems associated with polymer blends while attaining desired film or coating characteristics. Other variations and modifications of this invention will be obvious to those skilled in the art. This invention is not limited except as set forth in the following claims.
