Filed:

Sep 16, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/397715

Inventors:

Raymond J. Weinert - Macedonia OH
Guillermina C. Garcia - Akron OH
James E. Robbins - Twinsburg OH
Aslam Malik - Cameron Park CA

Assignee:

Omnova Solutions Inc. - Fairlawn OH

International Classification:

C08G 1850

US Classification:

528 70, 528 75, 528 76, 560 26, 560 33, 560115, 560158, 560166, 560167, 525455, 525460, 525123, 525127, 525129, 5262929, 526294, 526295, 526296, 526301

Abstract:

Acrylate, or methacrylate, or allylic, functionalized polyfluorooxetanes are disclosed for use in radiation curable coating compositions. These acrylate, or methacrylate, or allylic, functionalized polymers provide improvements in wetting and surface properties that have previously been provided by migratory chemicals such as waxes and oils. The partially or fully fluorinated side groups of the fluorooxetanes are believed to be disproportionately present at the interfaces between the coating and the substrate and between the coating and the atmosphere.

International Classification:

B29C 70/40
B29C 51/18

US Classification:

264134, 264250, 264292

Abstract:

A coating composition is based on a polyester mixed with an alkyl-etherified melamine formaldehyde. The coating composition is partially cured in a first stage to provide a thermoformable partially cured, tack-free, non-blocking, coating layer, followed by application to generally a contoured substrate and thermoforming to conform thereto. The contoured partially cured coating layer is then heat cured to form a cured coating. A hydroxyl-terminated polyoxetane containing repeat units derived from oxetane monomers having one or two pendent —CH—O—(CH)—Rf groups, wherein Rf is partially or fully fluorinated, can be esterified with polyester-forming reactants to form a fluorinated polyoxetane-modified polyester.

International Classification:

B32B027/36

US Classification:

428/480000, 427/385500, 427/388300

Abstract:

A polyoxetane-polyester polymer comprising a hydroxyl terminated polyoxetane prepolymer containing repeat units derived from polymerized oxetane monomers having one or two pendant —CH—O—(CH)—Rf groups wherein Rf is partially or fully fluorinated, where the polyoxetane prepolymer is esterified with polyester forming reactants to form the polyoxetane-polyester polymer, and said polymer is mixed with a reactive lower alkyl etherified melamine-formaldehyde to form a thermoformable coating composition. The coating composition is partially cured in a first stage heating at less than about 180 F. to provide a thermoformable partially cured, tack-free, non-blocking, coating layer, followed by application to generally a contoured substrate and thermoformed to conform thereto. The contoured partially cured coating layer is then heat cured at temperatures above at least 180 F. for time sufficient to form a cured coating.

International Classification:

B32B001/00

US Classification:

428141000, 428167000

Abstract:

A low gloss dry-erasable multilayer composite comprises a first layer having a dry-erasable outer surface and a second layer having a microroughened surface. Preferably, the second layer is microroughened by cure-induced surface wrinkling. The first layer preferably comprises a polymer comprising at least one pendant fluoroalkoxyalkyl functionality. Methods of making low gloss dry erasable multilayer composites are also provided. New dry-erasable coating compositions comprising certain amine resin crosslinking agents are also provided.
