US 4,507,411 A · Cross-linked polymer compositions and production thereof

Abstract

A composition suitable for forming surface coatings, laminates or composite materials formed by bringing together: (a) a first polymer containing carboxylic acid, anhydride or acid chloride groups, (b) an amine or alcohol or a derivative thereof which is a tertiary amine, a ketimine, an acetal or an oxazolidine and (c) a second polymer capable of cross-linking with the first polymer in the presence of the amine or alcohol. The components may be initially in two packs and either mixed prior to application or sprayed onto the surface simultaneously from separate nozzles. The surface coatings are particularly suitable for coating surfaces which are otherwise difficult to coat and protect and may be applied to wet or rusted surfaces without surface preparation.

Dependent claims

A composition suitable for forming surface coatings, laminates or composite materials formed by bringing together the following components in parts by weight of the total weight;

(a) 200 to 450 parts of a first polymer containing carboxylic acid or anhydride groups, the extent of functionalization being from 1 to 50% by weight of the first polymer, said polymer being selected from the group consisting of a maleinized homopolymer or copolymer of a polydiolefin, maleinized natural rubber, maleinized linseed oil, maleinized soya bean oil and hydrolyzed derivatives thereof,
(b) 5 to 220 parts of a compound selected from the group consisting of a teritary amine, a ketimine and an oxazolidine and,
(c) 50 to 250 parts of a second polymer which is an epoxy resin capable of cross-linking with the first polymer at ambient temperature in the presence of the tertiary amine, ketimine or oxazolidine.
