Abstract

To provide a composition for powder coating material which can be sufficiently pulverized, and with which a powder coating material capable of forming a coating film excellent in weather resistance and adhesion to the substrate can be obtained; a powder coating material capable of forming a coating film excellent in weather resistance and adhesion to the substrate; and a coated article having a coating film excellent in weather resistance and adhesion to the substrate, on its surface. A composition for powder coating material comprising a polyvinylidene fluoride (A) having a melting point of from 151 to 200° C., and an acrylic resin (B) having a glass transition temperature of from 40 to 90° C. A powder coating material comprising the composition for powder coating material, and a coated article having a coating film formed of the powder coating material.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A composition, comprising the following polyvinylidene fluoride (A) and the following acrylic resin (B):
polyvinylidene fluoride (A): a polyvinylidene fluoride having a melting point of from 151 to 200° C.;
acrylic resin (B): an acrylic resin having a glass transition temperature of from 40 to 80° C., wherein the acrylic resin (B) comprises units derived from methyl methacrylate and units derived from ethyl methacrylate,
wherein the difference between the melting point of the polyvinylidene fluoride (A) and the glass transition temperature of the acrylic resin (B) is from 70 to 140° C., and
wherein the proportion of the units derived from methyl methacrylate to the units derived from ethyl methacrylate [(methyl methacrylate units)/(ethyl methacrylate units)] is from 50/50 to 90/10 (molar ratio).

2. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the difference between the melting point of the polyvinylidene fluoride (A) and the glass transition temperature of the acrylic resin (B) is from 100 to 140° C.

3. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the content of the polyvinylidene fluoride (A) is from 30 to 95 parts by mass in the total of 100 parts by mass of the polyvinylidene fluoride (A) and the acrylic resin (B).

4. A powder coating material comprising a powder comprising the composition according to claim 1 .

5. A coated article having a coating film comprising the powder coating material according to claim 4 , on the surface of a substrate.

6. The coated article according to claim 5 , wherein the material for the substrate is aluminum or aluminum alloy surface-treated with a chemical conversion treatment agent.

7. The coated article according to claim 6 , wherein the chemical conversion treatment agent is a zirconium-containing treatment agent or a titanium-containing treatment agent, which does not contain chromium.

8. The coated article according to claim 5 , which further comprises, between the surface of the substrate and the coating film comprising the powder coating material, a primer layer composed of at least one primer selected from the group consisting of an acrylic resin, a polyester resin and an epoxy resin.

9. A powder coating material comprising a first powder comprising the composition according to claim 1 , and
a second powder comprising a composition which comprises at least one resin (C) selected from the group consisting of an acrylic resin, a polyester resin, an urethane resin, an epoxy resin and a silicone resin and which contains no fluororesin.

10. The powder coating material according to claim 9 , wherein the mixing ratio of the first powder to the second powder ((the first powder)/(the second powder)) is from 10/90 to 90/10 (mass ratio).

11. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the acrylic resin (B) is a polymer consisting of units derived from methyl methacrylate and units derived from ethyl methacrylate.

12. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the acrylic resin (B) has a number average molecular weight (Mn) of from 20,000 to 100,000.

13. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the acrylic resin (B) has a mass average molecular weight (Mw) of from 30,000 to 200,000.

14. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the acrylic resin (B) has a melt viscosity of from 50 to 500 Pa·s at a kneading temperature of 190° C.

15. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the proportion of the units derived from methyl methacrylate to the units derived from ethyl methacrylate [(methyl methacrylate units)/(ethyl methacrylate units)] is from 67/33 to 87/13 (molar ratio).
