Abstract

Abstract The present invention discloses a nonaqueous dispersion of urethane copolymers dispersed in a solvent which is less polar than the urethane copolymer segment wherein the urethane copolymers are the reaction products of a stabilizer, an aliphatic polyol and diisocyanates. Also disclosed is a method for making the nonaqueous polyurethane dispersions.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 81 words
A nonaqueous dispersion particularly adapted for use in automotive base coat/clear coat applications comprising: a urethane copolymer dispersed throughout a solvent, said solvent being less polar than the urethane copolymer, wherein said urethane copolymer is the reaction product of a stabilizer, polyols, and diisocyanate, and said stabilizer is the reaction product of a carboxylic acid and a monoepoxide, said nonaqueous dispersion when used to produce automotive base coats results in a high solids, low viscosity base coat with good rheology control.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 81 words
A nonaqueous dispersion particularly adapted for use in automotive base coat/clear coat applications comprising: a urethane copolymer dispersed throughout a solvent, said solvent being less polar than the urethane copolymer, wherein said urethane copolymer is the reaction product of a stabilizer, polyols, and diisocyanate, and said stabilizer is the reaction product of a carboxylic acid and a monoepoxide, said nonaqueous dispersion when used to produce automotive base coats results in a high solids, low viscosity base coat with good rheology control.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 59 words
A method of making a nonaqueous dispersion for use in automotive base coat/clear coat applications comprising: preparing a stabilizer by reacting a carboxylic acid with a monoepoxide; reacting the stabilizer with polyols and diisocyanate to produce a urethane copolymer, dispersing the copolymer in a solvent having a polarity less than that of the copolymer to form a nonaqueous dispersion.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 59 words
A method of making a nonaqueous dispersion for use in automotive base coat/clear coat applications comprising: preparing a stabilizer by reacting a carboxylic acid with a monoepoxide; reacting the stabilizer with polyols and diisocyanate to produce a urethane copolymer, dispersing the copolymer in a solvent having a polarity less than that of the copolymer to form a nonaqueous dispersion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 13 words
The dispersion of claim 1 wherein the urethane copolymer is a polyester polyurethane.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 13 words
The method of claim 2 wherein the urethane copolymer is a polyester polyurethane.
