Abstract

Abstract When pigments which are to be dispersed in the polyol package of a two-package urethane coating are pre-treated by slurrying in an organic polyisocyanate, pigment flocculation is inhibited. Coating properties, such as gloss, weatherability, hardness and chemical resistance, are thereby improved.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 48 words
In the process of producing a pigmented two-package urethane coating, the improvement which comprises: a. forming a slurry predispersion of the pigment in an amount of an organic polyisocyanate from 0.5 to 50% by weight of the pigment; then b. dispersing the slurry predispersion in the polyol package.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 48 words
In the process of producing a pigmented two-package urethane coating, the improvement which comprises: a. forming a slurry predispersion of the pigment in an amount of an organic polyisocyanate from 0.5 to 50% by weight of the pigment; then b. dispersing the slurry predispersion in the polyol package.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein there is employed from 1 to 25% by weight of the pigment of the organic polyisocyanate to form the slurry.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 15 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the polyol package comprises a polycaprolactone polyol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 15 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the polyol package comprises a polyester polyol.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein said organic polyisocyanate is chosen from the group consisting of 4,4'-methylene bis(cyclohexyl isocyanate), tolylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate and the biuret of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein said organic polyisocyanate is 4,4'-methylene bis(cyclohexyl isocyanate).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 13 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the pigment is titanium dioxide.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 42 words
A pigmented polyol composition, suitable for use in the production of polyurethane coatings, comprising an organic polyol having dispersed therein a slurry predispersion of a pigment in an amount of an organic polyisocyanate from 0.5 to 50% by weight of the pigment.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 42 words
A pigmented polyol composition, suitable for use in the production of polyurethane coatings, comprising an organic polyol having dispersed therein a slurry predispersion of a pigment in an amount of an organic polyisocyanate from 0.5 to 50% by weight of the pigment.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 31 words
A pigmented polyol composition as claimed in claim 8, wherein the amount of organic polyisocyanate employed in said slurry predispersion is from 1 to 25% by weight of the said pigment.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 32 words
A pigmented polyol composition as claimed in claim 8, wherein said organic polyisocyanate is chosen from the group consisting of 4,4'-methylene bis(cyclohexyl), tolylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate and the biuret of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 17 words
A pigmented polyol composition as claimed in claim 8, wherein said organic polyisocyanate is 4,4'-methylene bis(cyclohexyl isocyanate).
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 15 words
A pigmented polyol composition as claimed in claim 8, wherein said pigment is titanium dioxide.
