Abstract
Abstract Air-drying lacquer binders comprising copolymers of copolymerised units of 20 to 55% by weight of styrene, 5 to 30% by weight of glycidyl (meth)acrylate, and 0 to 50% by weight of at least one (meth)acrylic acid ester having from 1 to 10 C-atoms in the alcohol component, Which copolymers have been esterified to acid numbers of from 0 to 10 with from 22 to 50% by weight of air-drying fatty acids, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acids and dicarboxylic acid anhydride, and the hydroxyl groups thereby formed have subsequently been reacted with from 0.5 to 3% by weight of dicarboxylic acid anhydride, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acids and dicarboxylic acid anhydride, characterized in that the binders have acid numbers of from 5 to 15, these final acid numbers being made up of the acid numbers of from 0 to 10 obtained by the esterification with drying fatty acids and the acid numbers of from 1 to 15 obtained from the reaction with the dicarboxylic acid anhydride.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
184 words
An air-drying lacquer binder consisting essentially of a copolymer of copolymerised units of 20 to 55% by weight of styrene, 5 to 30% by weight of glycidyl (meth)acrylate, and 0 to 50% by weight of at least one (meth)acrylic acid ester having from 1 to 10 C-atoms in the alcohol component, which copolymer has been esterified to an acid number of from 0 to 10 with from 22 to 50% by weight of at least one drying fatty acid, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acid and dicarboxylic acid anhydride, and the hydroxyl groups thereby formed have subsequently been reacted with from 0.5 to 3% by weight of a dicarboxylic acid anhydride, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acid and dicarboxylic acid anhydride, the reaction product having an acid number of from 5 to 15, this final acid number being made up of the acid number of from 0 to 10 obtained by the esterification with the drying fatty acid and the acid number of from 1 to 15 obtained from the reaction with the dicarboxylic acid anhydride.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
184 words
An air-drying lacquer binder consisting essentially of a copolymer of copolymerised units of 20 to 55% by weight of styrene, 5 to 30% by weight of glycidyl (meth)acrylate, and 0 to 50% by weight of at least one (meth)acrylic acid ester having from 1 to 10 C-atoms in the alcohol component, which copolymer has been esterified to an acid number of from 0 to 10 with from 22 to 50% by weight of at least one drying fatty acid, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acid and dicarboxylic acid anhydride, and the hydroxyl groups thereby formed have subsequently been reacted with from 0.5 to 3% by weight of a dicarboxylic acid anhydride, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acid and dicarboxylic acid anhydride, the reaction product having an acid number of from 5 to 15, this final acid number being made up of the acid number of from 0 to 10 obtained by the esterification with the drying fatty acid and the acid number of from 1 to 15 obtained from the reaction with the dicarboxylic acid anhydride.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
A lacquer binder as claimed in claim 1, wherein from 25 to 40% by weight of the drying fatty acid is used.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
57 words
A lacquer binder as claimed in claim 1, wherein the copolymer comprises: 20 to 45% by weight of styrene, 10 to 25% by weight of glycidyl acrylate, glycidyl methacrylate or a mixture thereof, and 10 to 30% by weight of at least one ester of (meth)acrylic acid having from 1 to 4 C-atoms in the alcohol component.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
182 words
A method of preparing an air-drying lacquer binder, consisting essentially of, esterifying a copolymer of copolymerised units of 20 to 55% by weight of styrene, 5 to 30% by weight of glycidyl (meth)acrylate, and 0 to 50% by weight of at least one (meth)acrylic acid ester having from 1 to 10 C-atoms in the alcohol component, to an acid number of from 0 to 10 with from 22 to 50% by weight of at least one drying fatty acid, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acids and dicarboxylic acid anhydride; and subsequently reacting the hydroxyl groups thereby formed with from 0.5 to 3% by weight of dicarboxylic acid anhydride, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acid and dicarboxylic acid anhydride, thereby forming a reaction product with an acid number of from 5 to 15, this final acid number being made up of the acid number of from 0 to 10 obtained by the esterification with drying fatty acid and the acid number of from 1 to 15 obtained from the reaction with the dicarboxylic acid anhydride.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
182 words
A method of preparing an air-drying lacquer binder, consisting essentially of, esterifying a copolymer of copolymerised units of 20 to 55% by weight of styrene, 5 to 30% by weight of glycidyl (meth)acrylate, and 0 to 50% by weight of at least one (meth)acrylic acid ester having from 1 to 10 C-atoms in the alcohol component, to an acid number of from 0 to 10 with from 22 to 50% by weight of at least one drying fatty acid, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acids and dicarboxylic acid anhydride; and subsequently reacting the hydroxyl groups thereby formed with from 0.5 to 3% by weight of dicarboxylic acid anhydride, based on the quantity of copolymer and drying fatty acid and dicarboxylic acid anhydride, thereby forming a reaction product with an acid number of from 5 to 15, this final acid number being made up of the acid number of from 0 to 10 obtained by the esterification with drying fatty acid and the acid number of from 1 to 15 obtained from the reaction with the dicarboxylic acid anhydride.
