Abstract
Abstract Quinolinium sulfonates of the formula I ##STR1## wherein R 1 is C 1 -C 8 -alkyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkyl substituted by halogen, hydroxyl or C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, or it is C 2 -C 8 -alkenyl, C 7 -C 9 -phenylalkyl or C 5 -C 8 -cycloalkyl, R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 independently of one another are each hydrogen, C 1 -C 4 -alkyl, halogen, --CN, --COO(C 1 -C 4 -alkyl), --CHO, hydroxyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, an acyloxy group R 7 COO--, a group R 8 --CH═CH--, C 7 -C 9 -phenylalkyl or phenyl, R 6 is C 1 -C 12 -alkyl, C 6 -C 10 -aryl which is unsubstituted or mono- or polysubstituted by C 1 -C 12 -alkyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, halogen or a group R 7 CONH--, or it is fluorine, NH 2 or CF 3 , and R 7 and R 8 independently of one another are each C 1 -C 4 -alkyl or phenyl, are suitable as latent curing catalysts for acid-curable stoving lacquers. There is formed by irradiation with UV light the actual acid catalyst, which renders possible curing at relatively low stoving temperatures.

A process for curing an acid-catlyzable stoving lacquer which comprises incorporating 0.1 to 10%, by weight of lacquer solids, of a latent curing catalyst into said lacquer, said catalyst comprising a quinolinium sulfonate of the formula I ##STR3## wherein R 1 is C 1 -C 8 -alkyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkyl substituted by halogen, hydroxyl or C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, or it is C 2 -C 8 -alkenyl, C 7 -C 9 -phenylalkyl or C 5 -C 8 -cycloalkyl, R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 independently of one another are each hydrogen, C 1 -C 4 -alkyl, halogen, -CN, -COO(C 1 -C 4 -alkyl), -CHO, hydroxyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, an acyloxy group R 7 COO-, a group R 8 -CH═CH-, C 7 -C 9 -phenylalkyl or phenyl, R 6 is C 1 -C 12 -alkyl, C 6 -C 10 -aryl which is unsubstituted or mono- or polysubstituted by C 1 -C 12 -alkyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, halogen or a group R 7 CONH-, or it is fluorine, NH 2 or CF 3 , and R 7 and R 8 independently of one another are each C 1 -C 4 -alkyl or phenyl; irradiating said catalyst-containing lacquer with shortwave light; and heating said irradiated lacquer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
215 words
A process for curing an acid-catlyzable stoving lacquer which comprises incorporating 0.1 to 10%, by weight of lacquer solids, of a latent curing catalyst into said lacquer, said catalyst comprising a quinolinium sulfonate of the formula I ##STR3## wherein R 1 is C 1 -C 8 -alkyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkyl substituted by halogen, hydroxyl or C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, or it is C 2 -C 8 -alkenyl, C 7 -C 9 -phenylalkyl or C 5 -C 8 -cycloalkyl, R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 independently of one another are each hydrogen, C 1 -C 4 -alkyl, halogen, -CN, -COO(C 1 -C 4 -alkyl), -CHO, hydroxyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, an acyloxy group R 7 COO-, a group R 8 -CH═CH-, C 7 -C 9 -phenylalkyl or phenyl, R 6 is C 1 -C 12 -alkyl, C 6 -C 10 -aryl which is unsubstituted or mono- or polysubstituted by C 1 -C 12 -alkyl, C 1 -C 4 -alkoxy, halogen or a group R 7 CONH-, or it is fluorine, NH 2 or CF 3 , and R 7 and R 8 independently of one another are each C 1 -C 4 -alkyl or phenyl; irradiating said catalyst-containing lacquer with shortwave light; and heating said irradiated lacquer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
90 words
