Abstract

An organopolysiloxane containing at least two silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups, the reaction product of an amino-containing organoalkoxysilane with a dicarboxylic anhydride, and an organopolysiloxane containing long-chain alkyl and alkoxy groups, but free of hydroxyl groups are emulsified and dispersed in water in the presence of a surfactant to form a coating emulsion composition.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for preparing a water- and oil-repellent paper sheet, comprising:
coating a water- and oil-repellent composition primarily comprising an aqueous silicone resin emulsion comprising: (a) 100 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane containing at least two silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups in a molecule; (b) 0.5 to 20 parts by weight of a dicarboxylic acid base curing agent; (c) 1 to 50 parts by weight of silica; (d) 2 to 4 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane containing C 4 -C 20 alkyl and alkoxy groups, but free of hydroxyl groups, and (e) an effective amount to form an emulsion of a surfactant on at least one surface of a paper substrate so as to give a dry coating weight of at least 1.0 g/m 2 , for thereby forming a water- and oil-repellent, releasable silicone resin layer,
the paper substrate being selected from the group consisting of Kraft paper, wood-free paper, paper board, liner, glassine paper and parchment paper.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein component (d) has the average compositional formula (2):

wherein R 1 is each independently C 1 -C 3 alkyl or phenyl, Q is each independently C 4 -C 20 alkyl, Z is each independently a group of —OR 2 , —C 2 H 4 —Si(OR 2 ) 3 or —C 3 H 6 —Si(OR 2 ) 3 wherein R 2 is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, the subscript d is a positive number of 1 to 100, e is a positive number of 1 to 100, f is a positive number of 0.1 to 30, and q is 0, 1, 2 or 3.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein component (d) has the average compositional formula (3):

wherein Q is each independently selected from hexyl, octyl, decyl, and dodecyl, Z is each independently selected from methoxy, ethoxy and —C 2 H 4 —Si(OCH 3 ) 3 , the subscript d is a positive number of 1 to 100, e is a positive number of 1 to 100, and f is a positive number of 0.1 to 30.

4. A method of preparing a water repellent paper sheet comprising coating a paper sheet with a coating emulsion composition comprising:
(A) 100 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane containing at least two silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups in a molecule,
(B) 0.5 to 20 parts by weight of the reaction product of an amino-containing organoalkoxysilane with a dicarboxylic anhydride,
(C) 1 to 20 parts by weight of an epoxy-containing organoalkoxysilane and/or a partial hydrolyzate thereof,
(D) 1 to 50 parts by weight of colloidal silica and/or polysilsesquioxane,
(E) 0 to 10 parts by weight of a curing catalyst, and
(F) 0.5 to 20 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane containing C 4 -C 20 1 alkyl and alkoxy groups, but free of hydroxyl groups, and having the average compositional formula (2):

wherein R 1 is each independently C 1 -C 3 alkyl or phenyl, Q is each independently C 4 -C 20 alkyl, Z is each independently a group of —OR 2 , —C 2 H 4 —Si(OR 2 ) 3 or —C 3 H 6 —Si(OR 2 ) 3 wherein R 2 is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, the subscript d is a positive number of 1 to 100, e is a positive number of 1 to 100, f is a positive number of 0.1 to 30, and q is 0, 1, 2 or 3,
components (A) to (F) being emulsified and dispersed in water in the presence of a surfactant.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein component (F) has the average compositional formula (3):

wherein Q is each independently selected from hexyl, octyl, decyl, and dodecyl, Z is each independently selected from methoxy, ethoxy and —C 2 H 4 —Si(OCH 3 ) 3 , the subscript d is a positive number of 1 to 100, e is a positive number of 1 to 100, and f is a positive number of 0.1 to 30.
