Abstract
Described herein is a two-part condensation curable silyl-modified polymer based adhesive composition suitable for the adhesion of a front lens having an anti-haze coating onto a lamp body for lighting applications. Also described herein are lamps comprising a lamp body and a front lens utilizing the adhesive composition to adhere the front lens to the lamp body while generally preserving the integrity of the anti-haze coating.
Claims16
A two-part condensation curable silyl-modified polymer based adhesive composition comprising a base part, Part A, and a catalyst package, Part B, wherein part A comprises:
- (a) a silyl modified organic polymer having at least two (R)m(Y1)3-m—Si groups per molecule
- where each R is a hydroxyl or a hydrolysable group, each Y1 is an alkyl group containing from 1 to 8 carbons, and m is 1, 2, or 3, and where the organic polymer is selected from the group consisting of polyethers, hydrocarbon polymers, acrylate polymers, polyesters, polyurethanes and polyureas;
- and
- (b) a reinforcing filler;
- and
- wherein Part B comprises:
- (i) a tin based catalyst;
- and
- (ii) a cross-linker selected from the group consisting of:—
- (iia) a silane of the structure
- R6jSi(OR5)4-j
- where each R5 is an independently selected alkyl group containing at least 2 carbon atoms;
- j is 1 or 0;
- and R6 is a silicon-bonded organic group selected from a substituted or unsubstituted straight or branched monovalent hydrocarbon group having at least 2 carbons, a cycloalkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group or any one of the foregoing wherein at least one hydrogen atom bonded to carbon is substituted by a halogen atom, or an organic group having an epoxy group, a glycidyl group, an acyl group, a carboxyl group, an ester group, an amino group, an amide group, a (meth)acryl group, a mercapto group or an isocyanate group;
- (iib) a silane of the structure
- R7Si(OMe)3
- wherein Me is CH3 and R7 is R6 providing the molecular weight of the silane (iib) is ≥190;
- (iic) a silane of the structure
- (R′O)3Si(CH2)nN(H)—(CH2)zNH2
- where each R′ is an independently selected alkyl group containing from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, n is from 2 to 10, and z is from 2 to 10;
- (iid) a dipodal silane of the structure
- (R4O)r(Y2)3-r—Si(CH2)x—((NHCH2CH2)t-Q(CH2)x)w—Si(OR4)r(Y2)3-r
- where each R4 is a C1 to C10 alkyl group, each Y2 is an alkyl group containing from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, Q is a chemical group containing a heteroatom with a lone pair of electrons;
- each x is an integer of from 1 to 6, and t is 0 or 1;
- each r is independently 1, 2 or 3, and w is 0 or 1, or
- (iie) a mixture of two or more of (iia), (iib), (iic) and (iid);
- and optionally
- (iii) a silyl modified organic polymer having at least two (R)m(Y1)3-m—Si groups per molecule, and/or
- (iv) a filler.
