Abstract

A poly(meth)acrylate represented by formula (1) can impart a hardcoat layer having exceptional scratch resistance, strong impact resistance, and excellent weather resistance, especially weather crack resistance.

(R 1 -R 4 represent hydrogen atoms, etc.; Y represents a divalent hydrocarbon group having a polycyclic structure; X represents a divalent or trivalent saturated hydrocarbon group in which at least one selected from oxygen atoms, etc., may be interposed; T represents a urethane group (bonds with X by an oxygen atom); Q represents a divalent or trivalent saturated hydrocarbon group in which at least one selected from oxygen atoms, etc., may be interposed; P represents a (meth)acryloyloxy group; a and c represent the number of Q-T bonded to X, a and c being 1 when X is divalent and 2 when X is trivalent; b and d represent the number of (meth)acryloyloxy groups bonded to Q, b and d being 1 or 2 when a or c is 1, and being 2, 3, or 4 when a is 2; and n represents an integer of 0-6.)

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A poly(meth)acrylate having the general formula (1):

wherein R 1 to R 4 are each independently hydrogen or a monovalent hydrocarbon group which may be separated by at least one atom selected from oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus,
Y is a divalent hydrocarbon group having a polycyclic structure,
X is each independently a di- or trivalent saturated hydrocarbon group which may be separated by at least one atom selected from oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus,
T is a urethane group: —O—(C═O)—NH— wherein the oxygen bonds to X,
Q is each independently a di- or trivalent saturated hydrocarbon group which may be separated by at least one atom selected from oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus,
P is a (meth)acryloyloxy group,
a representative of the number of Q-T bonded to X is 1 when X is divalent, and 2 when X is trivalent,
b representative of the number of (meth)acryloyloxy groups bonded to Q is 1 or 2 in case of a=1, and 2, 3 or 4 in case of a=2,
c representative of the number of Q-T bonded to X is 1 when X is divalent, and 2 when X is trivalent,
d representative of the number of (meth)acryloyloxy groups bonded to Q is 1 or 2 in case of c=1, and 2, 3 or 4 in case of c=2, and
n is an integer of 1 to 6.

2. The poly(meth)acrylate of claim 1 wherein Y is a divalent saturated hydrocarbon group having a polycyclic structure.

3. The poly(meth)acrylate of claim 1 or 2 wherein Y is one or more groups selected from divalent saturated hydrocarbon groups having the following formulae (2a) to (2d):

4. The poly(meth)acrylate of claim 1 wherein X is each independently a group having the following formula (3) or (4):

wherein 1* bonds to the silicon in formula (1) and 2* bonds to the oxygen on the urethane group in formula (1).

5. The poly(meth)acrylate of claim 1 wherein Q is each independently a group having the following formula (5) or (6):

wherein 3* bonds to P in formula (1) and 4* bonds to the nitrogen on the urethane group in formula (1).

6. The poly(meth)acrylate of claim 4 , wherein R 1 to R 4 are methyl, X is a group having formula (3), and a and c each are 1.

7. The poly(meth)acrylate of claim 1 wherein n is an integer of 1 to 3.

8. A method of preparing the poly(meth)acrylate of claim 1 , comprising the steps of effecting addition reaction of a compound having two silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule, represented by the following formula (7):

wherein R 1 to R 4 , Y and n are as defined above, with a compound having one addition reactive carbon-carbon double bond per molecule and a hydroxyl group to form an addition reaction product having the following formula (8):

wherein R 1 to R 4 , X, Y and n are as defined above and g is an integer of 1 or 2, and reacting the hydroxyl group on the addition reaction product with an isocyanate group on a compound having the following formula (9):
OCN-Q P) h   (9)

wherein Q and P are as defined above and h is an integer of 1 or 2.

9. A coating composition comprising the poly(meth)acrylate of claim 1 and a binder precursor other than the poly(meth)acrylate.

10. The coating composition of claim 9 wherein the binder precursor comprises at least one monofunctional or polyfunctional (meth)acrylate and at least one photopolymerization initiator.

11. The coating composition of claim 9 wherein the binder precursor contains at least one compound selected from the group consisting of urethane poly(meth)acrylates and hydrolyzates or hydrolytic condensates of (meth)acryloyl-containing alkoxysilanes.

12. The coating composition of claim 9 , further comprising colloidal silica which is surface treated with a (meth)acrylic functional alkoxysilane.

13. The coating composition of claim 9 , further comprising one or more additives selected from UV absorbers, antifouling agents, water repellents, hydrophilizing agents, leveling agents, colorants, pigments, adhesion promoters, IR absorbers, photostabilizers, curing catalysts, and metal oxide fine particles.

14. A coated article comprising a substrate and a cured film of the coating composition of claim 9 formed on the substrate directly or via at least one other layer.

15. The coated article of claim 14 wherein the substrate is an organic resin or wood.
