Method of preparing acrylic polymers containing hydrolyzable moieties from organosilane compounds
Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is an ungelled acrylic resin composition containing an acrylic polymer having in a molecule thereof at least one group containing a silicon atom selected from: ##STR1## each R independently is selected from the group of moieties consisting of Y, hydrogen, a C 1 -C 10 group joined to Si through an Si-C linkage, and OR 7 in which R 7 represents alkykl having at least 4 carbon atoms, aryl, alkylaryl, arylalkyl, aryloxyalkyl, or alkyloxyalkyl, wherein Y represents an easily hydrolyzable group. The acrylic resin composition, contains an amount of easily hydrolyzable Y moieties such that the ratio of the number of grams of the ungelled acrylic resin composition to equivalent of easily hydrolyzable Y moieties in the ungelled acrylic resin composition is in the range of from 40 to 667. Preferred acrylic resin compositions of the invention can be cured in the presence of atmospheric moisture and a suitable catalyst at a temperature of less than or equal to 121 degrees Celsius within 3 hours. Disclosed is a method for producing the ungelled acrylic resin composition. Also disclosed is a nonaqueous composition, particularly a nonaqueous coating composition, containing the ungelled acrylic resin composition. Preferred coating compositions containing an ungelled acrylic resin composition can be cured in the presence of atmospheric moisture and a suitable catalyst at a temperature of less than or equal to 121 degrees C. within 3 hours.
