Description: The present invention relates to moisture-curable compounds containing isocyanate and alkoxysilane groups, which can be cured in the presence of moisture to form coatings and sealants. It is known that polyisocyanate resins are curable in the presence of atmospheric moisture to form polyurea coatings. During the curing mechanism an isocyanate group reacts with moisture to form an amino group, which then reacts with another isocyanate group to form a urea group. One of the disadvantages of these moisture-curing resins is that the curing mechanism is relatively slow. It has been suggested in U.S. Patents 3,420,800 and 3,567,692 that the curing rate of moisture-curable polyisocyanates can be increased by incorporating either aldimines or ketimines. It is stated that the reaction of moisture with an aldimine or ketimine to form the corresponding amine is faster than the reaction of moisture with an isocyanate group to form an amine. A disadvantage of the use of aldimines and ketimines to accelerate the cure of polyisocyanates is that it requires the preparation of an additional component and requires some type of metering equipment to ensure that the two components are blended in the proper proportions. It is an object of the present invention to increase the curing rate of moisture-curable polyisocyanates without the need for a co-reactant. This object may be achieved with the polyisocyanates of the present invention, which have been modified to contain alkoxysilane groups incorporated through secondary amino groups. The faster curing rates obtained according to the present invention are surprising because alkoxysilane groups, which are also curable in the presence of moisture, cure more slowly than polyisocyanates. However, when both isocyanate groups and alkoxysilane groups are present, a faster curing rate is obtained. U.S. Patents 4,687,533 and 5,623,044 disclose the preparation of compounds containing isocyanate groups and alkoxysilane groups by reacting a portion of the isocyanate groups with amino compounds containing two trialkoxysilane groups. To the contrary the present invention only allows for the presence of such amino compounds when the moisture-curable compounds also contain repeating ethylene oxide units. In addition, these patents failed to recognize the improvement in curing rate that can be obtained with the moisture-curable compounds of the present invention. U.S. Patents 4,067,844 and 4,374,237 disclose the preparation of compounds containing isocyanate groups and alkoxysilane groups by reacting a portion of the isocyanate groups of NCO prepolymers with amino compounds containing alkoxysilane groups. The moisture-curable compounds according to the present invention must prepared from polyisocyanate adducts as opposed to NCO prepolymers. Copending application EP-A-0 949 284 discloses water dispersible compounds containing isocyanate and alkoxysilane groups. The water dispersible compounds must be prepared from a polyisocyanate component having a minimum average functionality of 2.4 and be rendered water dispersible by the use of either ionic or nonionic hydrophilic groups. Copending application, EP-A-0 924 230 discloses the preparation of polyurethane-urea dispersions containing alkoxysilane groups incorporated through secondary amino groups. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to moisture-curable compounds which a) have an isocyanate group content (calculated as NCO, MW 42) of 2 to 30% by weight and an alkoxysilane group content (calculated as Si, MW 28) of 0.2 to 4.5% by weight, b) optionally contain repeating ethylene oxide units and c) have an equivalent ratio of isocyanate groups to alkoxy groups, which are bound to Si, of 1.0:0.05 to 1.0:2.5, wherein the preceding percentages are based on the weight of the moisture-curable compounds and wherein the alkoxysilane groups are incorporated as the reaction products of i) a polyisocyanate component having a minimum average functionality of 2.0 and containing at least 50% by weight of polyisocyanate adducts, provided that when the moisture-curable compounds contain ethylene oxide units, the polyisocyanate component has a minimum average functionality of 2.4, and ii) amino compounds corresponding to formula I wherein X represents identical or different organic groups which are inert to isocyanate groups beiow 100°C, provided that at least one of these groups is an alkoxy group, Y represents a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms and R 1 represents an organic group other than a succinate group, which is inert to isocyanate groups at a temperature of 100°C or less, or when the moisture-curable compounds contain repeating ethylene oxide units, R 1 may also represent a group corresponding to the formula ―Y―Si―(X) 3 and wherein said moisture-curable compound cannot be stably dispersed in water.

Preferred polyisocyanate adducts are the polyisocyanates containing isocyanurate groups, uretdione, biuret groups, iminooxadiazine dione and/or allophanate groups. Suitable compounds containing ethylene oxide units, which may optionally be incorporated into the moisture-curable compounds according to the present invention, include compounds containing lateral or terminal, ethylene oxide units. Suitable compounds for incorporating lateral or terminal, hydrophilic ethylene oxide units are known and disclosed in U.S. Patents 3,905,929, 3,920,598 and 4,190,566 (the disclosures of which are herein incorporated by reference). Preferred hydrophilic components are the monohydroxy polyethers having terminal hydrophilic chains containing ethylene oxide units. These hydrophilic components may be produced as described in the preceding patents by alkoxylating a monofunctional starter, such as methanol or n-butanol, using ethylene oxide and optionally another alkylene oxide, for example, propylene oxide. The moisture-curable compounds according to the invention are prepared by reacting the polyisocyanate monomers and/or adducts with the amino-functional silanes in an amount sufficient such that the moisture-curable compounds contain isocyanate groups and alkoxy groups, which are bound to Si, in an equivalent ratio of 1.0:0.05 to 1.0:2.5, preferably 1.0:0.05 to 1.0:2.2 and more preferably 1.0:0.1 to 1.0:2.0. The compounds containing repeating ethylene oxide units are reacted with the polyisocyanates in amounts sufficient to provide the amount of ethylene oxide units previously set forth. However the moisture-curable compounds do not contain sufficient ethylene oxide units to be stably dispersed in water. Compounds which cannot be stably dispersed are those that do not remain mixed with water, either in the form of an oil-in-water emulsion or a water-in-oil emulsion, without settling, coagulation or separation. The reaction is preferably carried out by incrementally adding the isocyanate-reactive compound to the polyisocyanate. The amino-functional silane and the optional compound containing ethylene oxide groups may be added sequentially or in admixture. When present the compound containing ethylene oxide units is preferably added first, followed by the amino-functional silane. The compounds according to the invention can also be prepared by mixing different types of compounds, provided that they satisfy the preceding guidelines regarding the amounts hydrophilic groups, alkoxysilane groups and isocyanate groups. For example, compounds which contain alkoxysilane groups, but are free from isocyanate groups, and/or compounds which contain isocyanate groups, but which do not contain alkoxysilane groups, may be present as a portion of the compounds according to the invention. The reaction to form the urea groups is conducted at a temperature of 10 to 100°C, preferably 20 to 80°C and more preferably 20 to 50°C, while the reaction with the compounds containing ethylene oxide units is conducted at a temperature of 20 to 150°C, preferably 50 to 120°C and more preferably 60 to 100°C. The compounds of the present invention are suitable for use in one-component, coating, adhesive or sealing compositions, which can be cured in the presence of atmospheric moisture. The compositions cure by a multi-cure mechanism, i.e., 1) by the reaction of isocyanate groups with moisture, 2) by "silane polycondensation" from the hydrolysis of alkoxysilane groups to form Si-OH groups and their subsequent reaction with either Si-OH or Si-OR groups to form siloxane groups (Si-O-Si) and 3) conceivably by the reaction of isocyanate groups with Si-OH groups. Suitable acidic or basis cataiysts may be used to promote the curing reaction. Examples include acids such as paratoluene sulfonic acid; metallic salts such as dibutyl tin dilaurate; tertiary amines such as triethylamine or triethylene diamine; and mixtures of these catalysts. Low molecular weight, basic aminoalkyl trialkoxysilanes, such as those represented by formula I, also accelerate hardening of the compounds according to the invention. The one-component compositions generally have a solids content of 50 to 100%, preferably 80 to 100%, based on the weight of the one-component composition. Suitable organic solvents include those which are known from polyurethane chemistry. The compositions may also contain known additives, such as leveling agents, wetting agents, flow control agents, antiskinning agents, antifoaming agents, fillers (such as silica, aluminum silicates and high-boiling waxes), viscosity regulators, plasticizers, pigments, dyes, UV absorbers and stabilizers against thermal and oxidative degradation. The one-component compositions may be applied to any desired substrates, such as wood, plastics, leather, paper, textiles, glass, ceramics, plaster, masonry, metals and concrete. They may be applied by standard methods, such as spray coating, spread coating, flood coating, casting, dip coating, roll coating. The coating compositions may be clear or pigmented lacquers. The one-component compositions may be cured at ambient temperature, or at elevated temperatures. Preferably, the moisture-curable resins are cured at ambient temperatures.
