Abstract

Abstract A process for curing acid-curable resins with photocatalyst compounds having the general formula: <IMAGE> WHEREIN M = 0, 1 OR 2 AND P IS AN INTEGER FROM 1 TO 5 AND WHEREIN, WHEN P IS 1, R represents an alkyl or alkoxy group having at least 4 C-atoms, and when p>1, R represents alkyl or alkoxy groups having together at least 4 C-atoms. The photocatalyst which may be used is 2,2,2-trichloro-4'-tert-butylacetacetophenone. This compound may be prepared by chlorinating 4'-tert-butylacetophenone or by treating tert-butyl benzene in carbon disulfide with trichloroacetyl chloride or trichloroacetonitrile and aluminum chloride.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 81 words
In a process for curing an acid-curable resin containing a phenol, urea or melamine resin by irradiation with ultraviolet light, the improvement comprising incorporating therein a photocatalyst having the formula ##STR3## wherein m = 0, 1 or 2 and p is an integer from 1 to 5 and wherein, when p is 1, R represents an alkyl or alkoxy group having at least 4 C-atoms, and when p> 1, R represents alkyl or alkoxy groups having together at least 4 C-atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 81 words
In a process for curing an acid-curable resin containing a phenol, urea or melamine resin by irradiation with ultraviolet light, the improvement comprising incorporating therein a photocatalyst having the formula ##STR3## wherein m = 0, 1 or 2 and p is an integer from 1 to 5 and wherein, when p is 1, R represents an alkyl or alkoxy group having at least 4 C-atoms, and when p> 1, R represents alkyl or alkoxy groups having together at least 4 C-atoms.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the photocatalyst is used in an amount of 0.5 - 10% by weight, calculated on the resin to be cured.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
The process as claimed in claim 2, wherein the amount of photocatalyst used is 1 - 5% by weight.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the photocatalyst is 2,2,2-trichloro-4'-tert.butylacetophenone.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 98 words
Acid-curable resin compositions consisting essentially of 10-100% by weight of a melamine resin or a urea-resin, 0-90% by weight of an alkyd resin, and a compound having the formula: ##STR4## wherein m = 0, 1 or 2 and p is an integer from 1 to 5 and wherein when p is 1, R represents an alkyl or alkoxy group having at least 4 C-atoms, and when p>1, R represents alkyl or alkoxy groups having together at least 4 C-atoms as a photocatalyst in an amount of 0.5 to 10% by weight based upon the resin to be cured.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 98 words
Acid-curable resin compositions consisting essentially of 10-100% by weight of a melamine resin or a urea-resin, 0-90% by weight of an alkyd resin, and a compound having the formula: ##STR4## wherein m = 0, 1 or 2 and p is an integer from 1 to 5 and wherein when p is 1, R represents an alkyl or alkoxy group having at least 4 C-atoms, and when p>1, R represents alkyl or alkoxy groups having together at least 4 C-atoms as a photocatalyst in an amount of 0.5 to 10% by weight based upon the resin to be cured.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 26 words
A composition as claimed in claim 5, wherein the photocatalyst is used in an amount of 1-5% by weight, calculated on the resin to be cured.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 13 words
A composition as claimed in claim 5, werein the photocatalyst is 2.2.2-trichloro-4'-tertiary butylacetophenone.
