Abstract

Coating compositions can be prepared from an acrylic grafted polyether resin, wherein the smallest difunctional hydroxyl phenyl segment used to form the acrylic grafted polyether resin has a molecular weight greater than about 500, and wherein the smallest difunctional hydroxyl phenyl segment used to form the acrylic grafted polyether resin does not comprise two or more non-impaired hydroxyl groups attached to two or more different five-membered or six-membered carbon atom rings in a segment having a molecular weight less than about 500. The acrylic grafted polyether resin can be prepared by reacting a dihydroxyl compound and/or a diamine compound with a phenol stearic acid compound to produce a diphenol, reacting the diphenol with a diglycidyl ether compound to form a polyether resin, and mixing the polyether resin with an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component in the presence of an initiator to form the acrylic grafted polyether resin.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin prepared by a method comprising the steps of:
a) reacting a dihydroxyl compound and/or a diamine compound with a phenol stearic acid compound comprising 10-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-octadecanoic acid to produce a diphenol;
b) reacting the diphenol with a diglycidyl ether compound to form a polyether resin; and
c) mixing the polyether resin with an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component in the presence of an initiator to form the bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin.

2. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 , wherein the bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin is neutralized in the presence of water to form a coating composition.

3. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 , wherein the dihydroxyl compound comprises 1,4-cyclohexane dimethanol, butane diol, neopentyl glycol, 1,3-cyclohexane dimethanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1,3-propane diol, diethylene glycol, a polyether glycol, a polyester, a polycarbonate, a hydroxyl functional polyolefin, or a mixture thereof.

4. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 , wherein the diamine compound comprises a piperazine compound, ethylene diamine, hexamethylene diamine, a fatty diamine, or a mixture thereof.

5. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 , wherein the diglycidyl ether compound comprises the diglycidyl ether of 4-cyclohexane dimethanol, butane diol, neopentyl glycol, cyclohexane dimethanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 1,3-propane diol, trimethylol propane, diethylene glycol, a polyether glycol, or a mixture thereof.

6. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 , wherein the acid number of the bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin is less than about 30 mg KOH/resin.

7. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 , wherein the bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin is prepared in the presence of a catalyst.

8. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 7 , wherein the catalyst is an acid catalyst.

9. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 , wherein the phenol stearic acid compound is present in a mole ratio of about 1:1 of the hydroxyl or amine functionality.

10. The bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 , wherein the polyether resin is prepared in the presence of an initiator comprising t-butyl peroxy benzoate, t-butyl peroctoate, dibenzoyl peroxide, 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl-peroxy-2-ethylhexanoate, or a mixture thereof.

11. A coating composition comprising the bisphenol-A free acrylic grafted polyether resin of claim 1 .

12. A method of coating a substrate comprising applying the coating composition of claim 11 to the substrate.

13. The coating composition of claim 11 , further comprising a crosslinker.

14. The coating composition of claim 13 , wherein the crosslinker comprises a phenolic resin.
