Disclosed is an activatable catalyst which is effective for the reaction of a hydroxyl compound and an isocyanate. Preferably, the catalyst is utilized in the cure of a coating composition of a polyol and a polyisocyanate. The activatable catalyst is activated in the presence of an amine activator or heat and comprises the reaction product of a metal catalyst selected from a tin catalyst, a bismuth catalyst, and mixtures thereof; and a molar excess of a complexing agent. The complexing agent is selected from a mercapto compound, a polyphenol characterized by being reactable with an isocyanate group in the presence of a tertiary amine activator, and mixtures thereof. A single polyol resin may bear both the complexing functionality and the activatable catalyst. Advantageusly, the polyol and polyisocyanate both are aliphatic.
An activatable catalyst effective for the reaction of a hydroxyl compound and an isocyanate compound and being activated in the presence of an amine activator or heat, comprising the reaction product of:
The catalyst of 1 wherein said tin catalyst is selected from the group consisting of stannous acetate, stannic oxide, stannous octoate, dibutyltin dioctoate, tin mercaptides, stannous citrate, stannous oxylate, stannous chloride, stannic chloride, tetra-phenyl tin, tetra-butyl tin, tri-n-butyl tin acetate, di-alkyl tin dicarboxylates, dimethyl tin dichloride, and mixtures;
A catalyzed reaction mixture which comprises:
A catalyzed reaction mixture which comprises:
A method for curing a catalyzed reaction mixture which comprises:
A method for curing a catalyzed reaction mixture which comprises:
A method for enhancing the stability of a catalyzed reaction mixture comprising a polyol, a polyisocyanate, and a metal catalyst selected from a tin catalyst, a bismuth catalyst, and mixtures thereof, which comprises forming said metal catalyst into an activatable catalyst by mixing said metal catalyst with a complexing agent selected from:
