Abstract

A coating composition includes: an aqueous dispersion of self-crosslinkable core-shell particles, where the corm-shell particles include (1) a polymeric core at least partially encapsulated by (2) a polymeric shell having urethane linkages, keto and/or aldo functional groups, and hydrazide functional groups, where the polymeric core is covalently bonded to at least a portion of the polymeric shell, and a hydrophobic additive including a wax and/or a silicon-containing compound, where the hydrophobic additive is non-reactive with the polymeric core and the polymeric shell. A substrate coated with a coating formed from the coating composition and a method for improving stain resistance of a substrate are also disclosed.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A coating composition comprising:
an aqueous dispersion of self-crosslinkable core-shell particles, wherein the core-shell particles comprise (1) a polymeric core at least partially encapsulated by (2) a polymeric shell comprising urethane linkages, keto and/or aldo functional groups, and hydrazide functional groups, wherein the polymeric core is covalently bonded to at least a portion of the polymeric shell,
a hydrophobic additive comprising a wax and/or a silicon-containing compound, wherein the hydrophobic additive is non-reactive with the polymeric core and the polymeric shell, and
an acrylic polymer prepared from ethylenically unsaturated monomers.

2. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the polymeric core comprises an addition polymer derived from ethylenically unsaturated monomers.

3. The coating composition of claim 2 , wherein the ethylenically unsaturated monomers comprise a (meth)acrylate monomer, a vinyl monomer, and/or a combination thereof.

4. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the polymeric shell comprises a water dispersible group.

5. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the core-shell particles are formed from a mixture of reactants comprising: (a) isocyanate-functional ethylenically unsaturated polyurethane prepolymers; (b) a Michael addition reaction product of ethylenically unsaturated monomers comprising a keto and/or aldo functional group, and a compound comprising at least two amino groups; (c) a hydrazide functional component; and (d) ethylenically unsaturated monomers.

6. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the polymeric core is completely free of keto and/or aldo functional groups.

7. The coating composition of claim 1 , further comprising a mildew-preventing additive.

8. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the polymeric core has a Tg of 10° to 30° C.

9. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the hydrophobic additive comprises 1-35 weight percent based on total solids of the coating composition.

10. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein when the coating composition is applied to a substrate and cured to form a coating, the cured coating exhibits a AE of no more than 10 after an iron oxide slurry is applied to the coating to form a stain on the coating, air dried for four hours, and washed with soap and water until no more stain can be removed.

11. A substrate at least partially coated with a coating formed from the coating composition of claim 1 .

12. The substrate of claim 11 , wherein the polymeric core comprises an addition polymer derived from ethylenically unsaturated monomers, wherein the ethylenically unsaturated monomers comprise a (meth)acrylate monomer and/or a vinyl monomer.

13. The substrate of claim 11 , wherein the substrate comprises wood, concrete, and/or stucco.

14. The substrate of claim 11 , further comprising a base coating layer disposed beneath the coating formed from the coating composition.

15. The substrate of claim 14 , wherein the coating layer formed from the coating composition comprises a refinish coating layer and the base coating layer comprises a weathered coating layer.

16. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the acrylic polymer is prepared via aqueous emulsion polymerization techniques or via organic solution polymerization techniques forming groups capable of salt formation, wherein upon neutralization of the groups with a base or acid, the acrylic polymer is dispersed into an aqueous medium to form a latex.

17. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the acrylic polymer has a weight average molecular weight of at least 100,000.

18. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the acrylic polymer is non-reactive with the polymeric core and polymeric shell of the self-crosslinkable core-shell particles.

19. The coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the acrylic polymer is added to the aqueous dispersion after formation of the self-crosslinkable core-shell particles.
