Abstract

Abstract There is provided a two-coat, one-bake metallic coating method which comprises applying, first, (a) a base coat composition containing an acrylic polyol oligomer having an average molecular weight of 500 to 2000 and a non-yellowing polyisocyanate compound in a NCO/OH ratio of 0.5/1 through 1/0.5 and further containing an appropriate amount of a metallic pigment and, then, on top thereof (b) a clear top coat composition containing said acrylic polyol oligomer and non-yellowing polyisocyanate compound in a NCO/OH ratio of 0.5/1 through 1/0.5 and causing the resulting coats to cure simultaneously. There are also provided coating compositions to be used in the above coating method.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 187 words
In a two-coat, one-bake metallic coating method wherein a base coat composition containing a first film-forming binder, a metallic pigment and a solvent for said first film-forming binder is applied, a clear top coat composition containing a second film-forming binder and a solvent thereof is applied wet-on-wet onto the base coat, and the resulting multicoat is cured simultaneously, the improvement which comprises employing as said first film-forming binder one consisting essentially of (a) a hydroxyl group-containing acrylic oligomer having an average molecular weight of 500 to 2000, (b) a non-yellowing polyisocyanate in an NCO--OH ratio of 0.5/1 to 1/0.5 relative to said acrylic oligomer, or a combination thereof with up to 30 percent by weight of the polyol (as non-volatile solids) of a melamine resin; and (c) a film-forming cellulose derivative; and as said second film-forming binder one consisting essentially of an acrylic oligomer as defined hereinabove, and a polyisocyanate as defined hereinabove, in an NCO/OH ratio of 0.5/1 to 1/0.5 relative to said acrylic oligomer, of a combination thereof with up to 30 percent by weight of the polyol (as non-volatile solids) of a melamine resin.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 187 words
In a two-coat, one-bake metallic coating method wherein a base coat composition containing a first film-forming binder, a metallic pigment and a solvent for said first film-forming binder is applied, a clear top coat composition containing a second film-forming binder and a solvent thereof is applied wet-on-wet onto the base coat, and the resulting multicoat is cured simultaneously, the improvement which comprises employing as said first film-forming binder one consisting essentially of (a) a hydroxyl group-containing acrylic oligomer having an average molecular weight of 500 to 2000, (b) a non-yellowing polyisocyanate in an NCO--OH ratio of 0.5/1 to 1/0.5 relative to said acrylic oligomer, or a combination thereof with up to 30 percent by weight of the polyol (as non-volatile solids) of a melamine resin; and (c) a film-forming cellulose derivative; and as said second film-forming binder one consisting essentially of an acrylic oligomer as defined hereinabove, and a polyisocyanate as defined hereinabove, in an NCO/OH ratio of 0.5/1 to 1/0.5 relative to said acrylic oligomer, of a combination thereof with up to 30 percent by weight of the polyol (as non-volatile solids) of a melamine resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein at least one of said first and second film-forming binders contains said melamine resin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein said melamine resin is absent from both binders.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein at least one said base coat and clear top coat compositions further contains an ultraviolet absorber and an antioxidant.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein said acrylic oligomer has an OH number of 50 to 300 and an acid number of 5 to 50.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 38 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 wherein said metallic pigment is present in said base coat composition in a proportion of 2 to 20 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said first film-forming binder.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 33 words
The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein a coloring pigment is present in said base coat composition in a proportion of 5 to 200 parts by weight of said first film-forming binder.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 92 words
A method according to claim 1 wherein said melamine resin is absent from both binders; wherein at least one of said base coat and clear top coat compositions further contains an ultraviolet absorber and an antioxidant; wherein said acrylic oligomer has an OH number of 50 to 300 and an acid number of 5 to 50; wherein said metallic pigment is an aluminum pigment and is present in said base coat composition in a proportion of 2 to 20 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said first film-forming binder.
