Abstract

A method for producing a coating on a substrate. The method includes producing a clearcoat directly on the substrate by applying an aqueous clearcoat material directly to the substrate. The method further includes curing the applied clearcoat material, the clearcoat material being a two-component coating composition. Also disclosed are coatings produced according to the method and their uses.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for producing a coating (B) on a substrate (S), comprising (I) producing a clearcoat (K) directly on the substrate (S) by applying an aqueous clearcoat material (k) directly to the substrate (S) and subsequently curing the applied clearcoat material (k), the clearcoat material (k) being a two-component coating composition comprising
(k 1 ) a paint base component comprising
(1) at least one aqueous dispersion comprising water and a polyurethane resin fraction consisting of at least one polyurethane resin, the polyurethane resin fraction having a gel fraction of at least 50 wt %, having its glass transition at a temperature of less than 20° C., and having its melting transition at a temperature of less than 100° C., and

(k 2 ) a curing component comprising
(2) at least one hydrophilically modified polyisocyanate having an isocyanate content of 8% to 18%.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hydrophilically modified polyisocyanates ( 2 ) are selected from the group of polyether- and/or polyester-modified polyisocyanates.

3. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the hydrophilically modified polyisocyanates ( 2 ) are selected from the group of polyoxyethylene-, polyoxypropylene- and/or mixed polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene-modified polyisocyanates.

4. The method as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the polyoxyethylene-, polyoxypropylene- and/or mixed polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene-modified polyiso-cyanates are selected from the group of isocyanurates of the polyoxyethylene-, polyoxypropylene- and/or mixed polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene-modified polyiso-cyanates.

5. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the polyoxyethylene-, polyoxypropylene- and/or mixed polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene-modified polyiso-cyanates are selected from the group of isocyanurates of hexamethylene 1,6-diisocyanate.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the polyurethane resin fraction of the at least one dispersion ( 1 ) has its glass transition at a temperature in the range from −100° C. to less than 20° C., has its melting transition at a temperature in the range from -20° C. to less than 90° C., and comprises particles having a particle size of greater than 1 micrometer.

7. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the clearcoat material (k) further comprises at least one further aqueous dispersion ( 3 ) comprising water and a polyurethane resin fraction consisting of at least one polyurethane resin, the polyurethane resin fraction of the aqueous dispersion ( 3 ) possessing a gel fraction of at least 50% and being present in the form of dispersed particles having a volume average particle size of 20 to 500 nanometers.

8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein no further coat other than the clearcoat is produced.

9. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the substrate used comprises a flexible substrate.

10. The method as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the substrate comprises a flexible foam substrate.

11. The method as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the substrate used comprises a thermoplastic polyurethane bead foam substrate.

12. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the clearcoat (K) is cured at temperatures between 40 and 120° C., preferably 60 to 100° C.

13. The method as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the clearcoat (K) is cured at temperatures between 60 to 100° C.

14. A coating produced by the method as claimed in claim 1 .

15. A substrate bearing a coating as claimed in claim 14 .

16. A method for increasing the stability of substrates to external mechanical influences, for improving the soil attraction resistance of substrates, the weathering stability of substrates and/or the retention of applied protective substances, the method comprising applying the coating as claimed in claim 14 .

17. The method as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the method further comprises applying impregnating sprays.
