Abstract
Abstract In a preferred embodiment, an improved moisture curing urethane resin that is durable in the presence of moisture and sunlight is formed by reacting an excess of a suitable aliphatic isocyanate with a suitable mixture of organic triols and diols and a hindered piperidine type stabilizer, e.g., bis(2,2,6,6 tetramethyl piperidinyl-4) sebacate in the presence of an organotin urethane forming catalyst such as dibutyltin dilaurate. This resin mixture product may be formulated with pigments, solvents and the like to form a topcoat paint that, upon application to a substrate, is curable under conditions of high relative humidity but relatively low temperatures (e.g., about 90 DEG C.). The cured paint has excellent gloss stability due to the chemical incorporation of the stabilizer segments throughout the binder resin molecules.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
78 words
A paint composition characterized by the ability to provide a cured finish over a base material, the finish being gloss stable when exposed to ultraviolet radiation, said paint comprising as a binder resin an aliphatic isocyanate terminated polyurethane prepolymer containing chemically incorporated in the molecular chains thereof a bis-2,2,6,6 tetraalkyl group hindered piperidinyl ester of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid ultraviolet stabilizer, the stabilizer thus being distributed uniformly throughout said paint composition and prevented from separating from said binder.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
78 words
A paint composition characterized by the ability to provide a cured finish over a base material, the finish being gloss stable when exposed to ultraviolet radiation, said paint comprising as a binder resin an aliphatic isocyanate terminated polyurethane prepolymer containing chemically incorporated in the molecular chains thereof a bis-2,2,6,6 tetraalkyl group hindered piperidinyl ester of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid ultraviolet stabilizer, the stabilizer thus being distributed uniformly throughout said paint composition and prevented from separating from said binder.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
78 words
A paint composition characterized by the ability to provide a moisture cured finish over a base material, the finish being gloss stable when exposed to ultraviolet radiation, said paint comprising as a binder resin an aliphatic isocyanate terminated, polyether polyurethane prepolymer containing chemically incorporated in the molecular chains thereof a bis-2,2,6,6 tetramethyl piperidinyl ester of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid ultraviolet stabilizer, the stabilizer thus being distributed uniformly throughout said paint composition and prevented from separating from said binder.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
78 words
A paint composition characterized by the ability to provide a moisture cured finish over a base material, the finish being gloss stable when exposed to ultraviolet radiation, said paint comprising as a binder resin an aliphatic isocyanate terminated, polyether polyurethane prepolymer containing chemically incorporated in the molecular chains thereof a bis-2,2,6,6 tetramethyl piperidinyl ester of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid ultraviolet stabilizer, the stabilizer thus being distributed uniformly throughout said paint composition and prevented from separating from said binder.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
126 words
A moisture curable ultraviolet stabilized isocyanate terminated urethane prepolymer reaction product of an aliphatic polyfunctional isocyanate, a mixture of one or more organic diols with one or more organic polyols having a hydroxyl functionality of three or greater, said diol and polyol being selected from the group consisting of alkylene diols, polyoxyalkylene diols, alkylene polyols and polyoxyalkylene polyols, and a bis-2,2,6,6 tetraalkyl group hindered piperidinyl ester of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, the proportions of said isocyanate, diol, polyol and piperidinyl ester being such that said prepolymer is isocyanate terminated and not gelled, the said piperidinyl ester being incorporated during said reaction into the molecular chains of said prepolymer and affording the prepolymer in its cured condition with gloss stability when it is exposed to ultraviolet radiation.
