Abstract
Abstract Relatively water insoluble hydroxy functional monoethylenic polyethers or polyesters of monoethylenic carboxylic acids or hydroxy aklys esters thereof are formed by adducting the monoethylenic acid or its hydroxy ester with an anhydride selected from monoepoxides, lactones, or mixtures thereof in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst, such as BF3 etherate, at a temperature below that at which the unsaturation is consumed, typically about 30 DEG -70 DEG C. These adducts are of low volatility and of low toxicity and can be radiation cured in admixture with polyacrylates to form coatings having improved resistance to elevated temperature exposure.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
94 words
A radiation curable coating composition comprising a monoethylenic adduct of a monoethylenic carboxylic acid or hydroxy alkyl ester thereof with an anhydride containing at least 3 carbon atoms and selected from the group consisting of monoepoxides, lactones, and mixtures thereof, said adduct containing an average of at least 1 mole of said anhydride per mole of said hydroxy ester or an average of at least 2 moles of said anhydride per mole of said acid, said monoethylenic adduct being in admixture with a polyacrylate providing a plurality of ethylenically unsaturated acrylic acid ester groups.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
94 words
A radiation curable coating composition comprising a monoethylenic adduct of a monoethylenic carboxylic acid or hydroxy alkyl ester thereof with an anhydride containing at least 3 carbon atoms and selected from the group consisting of monoepoxides, lactones, and mixtures thereof, said adduct containing an average of at least 1 mole of said anhydride per mole of said hydroxy ester or an average of at least 2 moles of said anhydride per mole of said acid, said monoethylenic adduct being in admixture with a polyacrylate providing a plurality of ethylenically unsaturated acrylic acid ester groups.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
A radiation curable coating composition as recited in claim 1 in which said composition includes a photosensitizer rendering the composition curable with ultraviolet light.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition as recited in claim 2 in which said composition is free of amine cosensitizer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition as recited in claim 4 in which said adduct contains an average of from about 3 to about 10 moles of said anhydride per mole of said acid or hydroxy alkyl ester thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
45 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition as recited in claim 4 in which said anhydride is selected from the group consisting of propylene oxide, butylene oxide, butyl glycidyl ether, cyclohexane oxide, phenyl glycidyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, and epsilon caprolactone, and said monoethylenic carboxylic acid is acrylic acid.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
101 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition comprising a monoethylenic adduct of acrylic acid or hydroxy alkyl ester thereof with an anhydride containing at least three carbon atoms and selected from the group consisting of monoepoxides and mixtures thereof with lactones, said adduct containing an average of from 3 to about 10 moles of said anhydride per mole of said acid or alkyl ester thereof and said anhydride comprising propylene oxide, said monoethylenic adduct being in admixture with a polyacrylate providing a plurality of ethylenically unsaturated acrylic acid ester groups, said composition further including a photosensitizer rendering the composition sensitive to ultraviolet light.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
101 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition comprising a monoethylenic adduct of acrylic acid or hydroxy alkyl ester thereof with an anhydride containing at least three carbon atoms and selected from the group consisting of monoepoxides and mixtures thereof with lactones, said adduct containing an average of from 3 to about 10 moles of said anhydride per mole of said acid or alkyl ester thereof and said anhydride comprising propylene oxide, said monoethylenic adduct being in admixture with a polyacrylate providing a plurality of ethylenically unsaturated acrylic acid ester groups, said composition further including a photosensitizer rendering the composition sensitive to ultraviolet light.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition as recited in claim 6 in which said composition is free of amine cosensitizer.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
24 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition as recited in claim 7 in which said polyacrylate contains at least 2.0 acrylic acid ester groups per molecule.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
31 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition as recited in claim 6 in which said monoethylenic adduct is present in a weight ratio of polyacrylate to monoethylenic adduct of from 2:98 to 50:50.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
31 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition as recited in claim 8 in which said monoethylenic adduct is present in a weight ratio of polyacrylate to monoethylenic adduct of from 5:95 to 25:75.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
20 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition as recited in claim 10 in which said polyacrylate consists essentially of trimethylol propane triacrylate.
