Abstract

Abstract Primer compositions are disclosed for improving the adhesion of abrasion resistant polysiloxane coatings to plastic substrates. The primers contain a thermosettable acrylic resin, an aminofunctional organosilicon compound, and optionally an ultraviolet light screening compound. A process employing the primer compositions to provide more durable adhesion of transparent, abrasion resistant polysiloxane coatings on plastic substrates is also disclosed.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 201 words
A method of improving the durability of the adhesion of abrasion-resistant silicone coatings on plastic articles, the method comprising: (A) applying to the surface of a plastic article a primer composition containing from 99 to 70 weight percent of organic solvent and 1 to 30 weight percent of coating components containing (I) a thermosettable acrylic resin and (II) from 0.1 to 50 weight percent based on (I) of an aminofunctional organo silicon compound of the general formula ##STR5## wherein R is hydrogen or a monovalent hydrocarbon radical of 1 to 12 carbon atoms, R' is a divalent alkylene radical of 3 or 4 carbon atoms, R" is a monovalent radical selected from the group consisting essentially of hydrogen, alkyl radicals of 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the --CH 2 CH 2 NH 2 radical, and x has an average value from 0 to 3; (B) evaporating off a substantial portion of the organic solvent of the primer composition; (C) thermally curing the coating components to form a primer layer on the plastic surface; (D) applying over the primer layer, a colloidal silica filled thermoset organopolysiloxane; and (E) thermally curing the colloidal silica filled thermoset organopolysiloxane to an abrasion-resistant silicone coating.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 201 words
A method of improving the durability of the adhesion of abrasion-resistant silicone coatings on plastic articles, the method comprising: (A) applying to the surface of a plastic article a primer composition containing from 99 to 70 weight percent of organic solvent and 1 to 30 weight percent of coating components containing (I) a thermosettable acrylic resin and (II) from 0.1 to 50 weight percent based on (I) of an aminofunctional organo silicon compound of the general formula ##STR5## wherein R is hydrogen or a monovalent hydrocarbon radical of 1 to 12 carbon atoms, R' is a divalent alkylene radical of 3 or 4 carbon atoms, R" is a monovalent radical selected from the group consisting essentially of hydrogen, alkyl radicals of 1 to 4 carbon atoms and the --CH 2 CH 2 NH 2 radical, and x has an average value from 0 to 3; (B) evaporating off a substantial portion of the organic solvent of the primer composition; (C) thermally curing the coating components to form a primer layer on the plastic surface; (D) applying over the primer layer, a colloidal silica filled thermoset organopolysiloxane; and (E) thermally curing the colloidal silica filled thermoset organopolysiloxane to an abrasion-resistant silicone coating.
