Abstract

The invention relates to coating agents that contain thioallophanates, containing silane groups, as cross-linking agents and to the use of said coating agents to produce coatings, in particular clear coats for automobile painting.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A nonaqueous coating composition comprising
A) at least one polyisocyanate component,
B) at least one hydroxy-functional binder component,
C) at least one catalyst for the crosslinking of silane groups, and
D) optionally further auxiliaries and additives,
where the polyisocyanate component A) comprises at least one thioallophanate containing silane groups, of the general formula (I),

in which
R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are identical or different radicals and are each a saturated, linear or branched, aliphatic or cycloaliphatic radical having up to 6 carbon atoms, and optionally contain up to 3 oxygen atoms,
X is a linear or branched organic radical having 2 to 10 carbon atoms,
Y is a linear or branched, aliphatic or cycloaliphatic, an araliphatic or aromatic radical having up to 18 carbon atoms and
n is an integer from 1 to 20.

2. The coating composition as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the polyisocyanate component A) comprises at least one thioallophanate containing silane groups, of the formula (I), in which
R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each alkyl radicals having up to 6 carbon atoms and/or alkoxy radicals which contain up to 3 oxygen atoms, with the proviso that at least one of the radicals R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is such an alkoxy radical, and
X is a propylene radical (—CH 2 —CH 2 —CH 2 —),
Y and n have the definition stated in claim 1 .

3. The coating composition as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the polyisocyanate component A) comprises at least one thioallophanate containing silane groups, of the formula (I), in which
R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are identical or different radicals and are each methyl, methoxy or ethoxy, with the proviso that at least one of the radicals R 1 , R 2 and R 3 is a methoxy or ethoxy radical,
X is a propylene radical (—CH 2 —CH 2 —CH 2 —), and
Y and n have the definition stated in claim 1 .

4. The coating composition as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the polyisocyanate component A) comprises at least one thioallophanate containing silane groups, of the formula (I), in which
Y is a linear or branched, aliphatic or cycloaliphatic radical having 5 to 13 carbon atoms.

5. The coating composition as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the polyisocyanate component A) comprises at least one thioallophanate containing silane groups, of the formula (I), in which
Y is an aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic radical as obtained by removing the isocyanate groups from a diisocyanate selected from the group consisting of 1,5-diisocyanatopentane, 1,6-diisocyanatohexane, 1-isocyanato-3,3,5-trimethyl-5-isocyanatomethylcyclohexane, 2,4′- and/or 4,4′-diisocyanatodicyclohexylmethane.

6. The coating composition as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the hydroxy-functional binder component B) comprises at least one polyester polyol, polyether polyol, polycarbonate polyol and/or polyacrylate polyol.

7. The coating composition as claimed in claim 6 , characterized in that the hydroxy-functional binder component B) comprises at least one polyacrylate polyol optionally present in a mixture with polyester polyols and/or polycarbonate polyols.

8. The coating composition as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the catalyst component C) comprises at least one acidic phosphoric ester, phosphonic ester and/or a sulfonic acid, which may optionally be present in amine-blocked form, and/or at least one tetraalkylammonium carboxylate.

9. The coating composition as claimed in claim 8 , characterized in that the catalysts C) are employed as individual substances or in the form of any desired mixtures with one another in amounts of 0.005 wt % up to 5 wt %, calculated as the sum total of all catalysts C) used, based on the total amount of polyisocyanate component A) and hydroxy-functional binder component B).

10. A method for producing the coating composition as claimed in claim 1 comprising mixing components A), B), C) and optionally D) in any order in succession or together in proportions such that for each isocyanate group in the polyisocyanate component A) there are 0.5 to 3.0 hydroxyl groups of the binder component B).

11. A method for producing coatings comprising curing the coating composition as claimed in claim 1 .

12. The method as claimed in claim 11 for producing clearcoats in automotive refinishing and automotive OEM finishing.

13. The method as claimed in claim 11 , characterized in that the coating composition is cured in a temperature range from 30 to 200° C.

14. A substrate coated with the coating composition as claimed in claim 1 .

15. The coating composition as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the polyisocyanate component A) comprises at least one thioallophanate containing silane groups, of the formula (I), in which
Y is an aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic radical as obtained by removing the isocyanate groups from a diisocyanate selected from the group consisting of 1,5-diisocyanatopentane, 1,6-diisocyanatohexane, 1-isocyanato-3,3,5-trimethyl-5-isocyanatomethylcyclohexane, 2,4′- and/or 4,4′-diisocyanatodicyclohexylmethane;
the hydroxy-functional binder component B) comprises at least one polyester polyol, polyether polyol, polycarbonate polyol and/or polyacrylate polyol; and
the catalyst component C) comprises at least one acidic phosphoric ester, phosphonic ester and/or a sulfonic acid, which may optionally be present in amine-blocked form, and/or at least one tetraalkylammonium carboxylate.
