Abstract
Abstract This invention relates to useful protective compositions, a method for protecting aluminum and aluminum alloy products against water staining, and a protected aluminum sheet. The method involves applying a continuous film of a protective composition to the surface of the aluminum product. The protective compositions useful for the invention are blends or reaction products of a polybasic acid and a partial ester of a polyol.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
105 words
Aluminous metal sheet resistant to the formation of water stain having applied thereon a continuous film of at least 0.5 milligram per square foot of a protective composition having a hydroxyl value greater than 15 and consisting essentially of (a) an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic polybasic acid containing from 18 to 72 carbon atoms and 2 to 4 carboxyl groups, and (b) a partial ester of a polyol derived from a C 12 -C 22 aliphatic monocarboxylic acid and a polyol containing 3 to 30 carbon atoms and 3 to 22 hydroxyl groups, blended or reacted at a weight ratio (a):(b) ranging from 20:1 to 1:4.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
105 words
Aluminous metal sheet resistant to the formation of water stain having applied thereon a continuous film of at least 0.5 milligram per square foot of a protective composition having a hydroxyl value greater than 15 and consisting essentially of (a) an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic polybasic acid containing from 18 to 72 carbon atoms and 2 to 4 carboxyl groups, and (b) a partial ester of a polyol derived from a C 12 -C 22 aliphatic monocarboxylic acid and a polyol containing 3 to 30 carbon atoms and 3 to 22 hydroxyl groups, blended or reacted at a weight ratio (a):(b) ranging from 20:1 to 1:4.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
75 words
The aluminous metal sheet of claim 1 wherein (a) is a polymer acid obtained by the polymerization of an unsaturated monocarboxylic acid containing 16 to 26 carbon atoms and (b) is derived from an aliphatic monocarboxylic acid containing 14 to 20 carbon atoms and an aliphatic or ether polyol containing from 3 to 12 carbon atoms and 3 to 10 hydroxyl groups, said polyol having no more than 70% of the available hydroxyl groups esterified.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
54 words
The aluminous metal sheet of claim 1 wherein (a) is a C 36 dimer acid containing less than 25 weight percent trimer and higher polymer acids and (b) is derived from a C 18 fatty acid and a polyol selected from the group consisting of glycerol, triglycerol, tetraglycerol, trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol, tripentaerythritol and tetrapentaerythritol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
The aluminous metal sheet of claim 2 wherein the protective composition is a blend of (a) and (b) and the weight ratio of the respective components ranges from 5:1 to 1:2.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
38 words
The aluminous metal sheet of claim 3 wherein (a) is characterized by having an acid value from 180 to 215, saponification value from 190 to 205 and neutral equivalent from 265 to 310 and (b) is glycerol monooleate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
29 words
The aluminous metal sheet of claim 2 wherein the protective composition is a reaction product obtained by reacting (a) and (b) at a weight ratio of 3:1 to 1:3.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
38 words
The aluminous metal sheet of claim 6 wherein (a) is characterized by having an acid value from 180 to 215, saponification value from 190 to 205 and neutral equivalent from 265 to 310 and (b) is glycerol monooleate.
