Abstract

A curable glass coating composition including 5-70 wt % aliphatic polycarbonate diol, 5-60 wt % crosslinker, 1-20 wt % extender, 4-20 wt % fatty alcohol, and 2-30 wt % crystalline or amorphous powder filler material, and optionally 2-20 wt % aliphatic polyester polyol and 2-20 wt % cycloaliphatic epoxy. The coating composition can be applied to a glass substrate and cured to form a decorative cured polyurethane coating layer on the substrate that has improved caustic and UV resistance.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A curable glass coating composition including:
5-70 wt % aliphatic polycarbonate diol,
5-60 wt % crosslinker,
1-20 wt % trimethylolpropane,
4-20 wt % fatty alcohol, and
2-30 wt % powder filler material,
wherein the powder filler material is zinc silicate powder, and
wherein the composition is free of bisphenol A and free of heavy metals including lead, cadmium, chromium, nickel, vanadium, antimony and bismuth.

2. The composition according to claim 1 , including:
10-60 wt % aliphatic polycarbonate diol,
10-50 wt % the crosslinker,
5-15 wt % trimethylolpropane,
10-15 wt % fatty alcohol, and
10-20 wt % powder filler material.

3. The composition according to claim 1 , further including 2-20 wt % aliphatic polyester polyol.

4. The composition according to claim 1 , further including 2-20 wt % cycloaliphatic epoxy.

5. The composition according to claim 1 , further including a 2-20 wt % colorant.

6. The composition according to claim 1 , further including 0.1 up to 5 wt % glass, ceramic, or polymer spherical particles from 100 nm to 20 um in average size.

7. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein at 101.325 kPa the polycarbonate diol is solid at or below 25° C. and has a melt temperature above 25° C.

8. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the crosslinker comprises a blocked isocyanate and the composition can be cured by heating the composition.

9. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the crosslinker comprises an unblocked isocyanate and the composition can be cured by drying the composition.

10. A method of coating a glass substrate, comprising:
providing a curable glass coating composition including
5-70 wt % aliphatic polycarbonate diol,
5-60 wt % crosslinker,
1-20 wt % trimethylolpropane,
4-20 wt % fatty alcohol, and
2-30 wt % powder filler material,
wherein the powder filler material is zinc silicate powder, and
wherein the composition is free of bisphenol A and free of heavy metals including lead, cadmium, chromium, nickel, vanadium, antimony and bismuth,

applying the coating composition to the glass substrate, and
curing the coating composition to form a coating on the glass substrate.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the coating composition comprises:
10-60 wt % aliphatic polycarbonate diol,
10-50 wt % crosslinker,
5-15 wt % trimethylolpropane,
10-15 wt % fatty alcohol, and
10-20 wt % powder filler material.

12. The method according to claim 10 , wherein:
the coating composition further includes at least one of 2-20 wt % aliphatic polyester polyol, 2-20 wt % cycloaliphatic epoxy, and 2-20 wt % colorant.

13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein the coating composition further includes 0.1-5 wt % glass, ceramic, or polymer spherical particles from 100 nm to 20 um in size.

14. The method according to claim 10 , wherein:
the coating composition is solid at 101.325 kPa and at or below 25° C., and has a melt temperature above 25° C.,
the method further includes heating the coating composition to the melt temperature to melt the coating composition, and
applying includes screen printing the melted coating composition to the glass substrate.

15. The method according to claim 10 , wherein:
the coating composition is liquid at 101.325 kPa and at 25° C. and has a melt temperature below 25° C., and
applying includes screen printing the liquid coating composition to the glass substrate.

16. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the glass substrate is a returnable glass beverage container.

17. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the coating composition further includes 0.1-5 wt % glass, ceramic, or polymer spherical particles from 100 nm to 20 um in average size.

18. The method according to claim 10 , wherein:
the crosslinker comprises a blocked isocyanate, and
curing includes heating the coating composition.

19. The method according to claim 10 , wherein:
the crosslinker comprises an unblocked isocyanate, and
curing includes drying the coating composition.
