Abstract

Disclosed herein is a composition comprising: an epoxy-containing component, elastomeric particles in an amount of greater than 11% by weight to 25% by weight based on total weight of the composition; and a curing component activatable by an external energy source, the curing component comprising at least one guanidine having a D90 particle size of 25 μm measured by dynamic light scattering. Also disclosed is the composition in an at least partially cured state. Also disclosed is a method for treating a substrate comprising applying the composition to a surface of a substrate; and applying an external energy source to cure the composition. Also disclosed are substrates comprising the composition. Also disclosed are substrates formed by the method of the present invention.

First claim

We claim:

1. A composition comprising:
an epoxy-containing component in an amount of at least 45% to no more than 85% by weight based on total weight of the composition and comprising a bisphenol F epoxy resin;
elastomeric core-shell particles in an amount of greater than 11% by weight to 25% by weight based on total weight of the composition, wherein the core-shell elastomeric particles have an average particle size of 50 nm to 150 nm as measured by electron transmission microscopy;
a curing component, activatable by an external energy source, the curing component comprising at least one guanidine in an amount of 2% to 20% by weight based on total weight of the composition and comprising a D90 particle size of 25 mm measured by dynamic light scattering; and
an amine in addition to the at least one guanidine.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the epoxy-containing component comprises an epoxy equivalent weight of 160 g/eq to 500 g/eq.

3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the epoxy-containing component comprises an average epoxide functionality of greater than 1.0 and less than 3.2.

4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein no more than 50% by weight of the elastomeric core-shell particles comprise a polybutadiene core based on total weight of the elastomeric core-shell particles.

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the at least one guanidine comprises dicyandiamide.

6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein no more than 50% by weight of the elastomeric core-shell particles comprise a polysiloxane core based on total weight of the elastomeric core-shell particles.

7. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising fillers, a second curing agent, and/or additives.

8. The composition of claim 7 , wherein the second curing agent is a latent curing agent, an active curing agent, or combinations thereof.

9. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is substantially free of additives, platy filler, and/or free radical initiators.

10. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is comprises a coating composition, an adhesive composition, or a sealant composition.

11. The composition of claim 1 ,
wherein at least 50% by weight of the elastomeric core-shell particles comprise a styrene butadiene core based on total weight of the elastomeric core-shell particles.

12. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is substantially free of platy filler.

13. A substrate, wherein a surface of the substrate is at least partially coated with the composition of claim 1 .

14. The substrate of claim 13 , wherein the substrate comprises an article, a part, or combinations thereof.

15. The substrate of claim 14 , wherein the part comprises a vehicular part.

16. The substrate of claim 14 , wherein the substrate comprises a vehicle.

17. The substrate of claim 16 , wherein the vehicle comprises a land vehicle or an aircraft.

18. An article comprising:
a first substrate;
a second substrate; and
the composition of claim 1 between the first and second substrates.

19. A method for forming a coating on a substrate surface comprising:
applying the composition of claim 1 to a surface of a first substrate; and
applying an external energy source.

20. The method of claim 19 , further comprising contacting a surface of a second substrate to the composition such that the composition is located between the first substrate and the second substrate.
