Abstract

The present invention relates to two-component coating systems for producing flexible coatings. The coating systems comprise polyurethane prepolymers with allophanate structures and also amino-functional polyaspartic esters as curing agents.

Claims (21)

1. A two-component coating composition comprising

A) a polyisocyanate prepolymer having polyether groups attached via allophanate groups and

B) an amino-functional polyaspartic ester of formula I)

wherein

X is an n-valent organic radical obtained by removing the primary amino groups from an n-valent polyamine,

R 1 and R 2 are identical or different organic radicals which are inert towards isocyanate groups under the reaction conditions and

n is a whole number of at least 2;

wherein said polyisocyanate prepolymer A) is prepared by reacting

A1) an aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic polyisocyanate with

A2) a polyhydroxy component comprising at least one polyether polyol to provide an NCO-functional polyurethane prepolymer and subsequently subjecting the urethane groups of said NCO-functional polyurethane prepolymer to partial or complete allophanatization by reacting it with

A3) an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic polyisocyanate, which is the same or different from polyisocyanate A1),

in the presence of an allophanate catalyst and optionally a stabilizer.

2. The two-component coating composition of claim 1 , wherein A1) and A3) said aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic polyisocyanates used to prepare the allophanate modified polyisocyanate prepolymer A) comprises hexane diisocyanate (hexamethylene diisocyanate, HDI), 4,4′ -methylenebis(cyclohexyl isocyanate) and/or 3,5,5-trimethyl-1-isocyanato-3-isocyanatomethylcyclohexane (isophorone diisocyanate, IPDI).

3. The two-component coating composition of claim 1 , in which component A1) and component A3) comprise the same polyisocyanate.

4. The two-component coating composition of claim 1 , wherein A4) said catalyst comprises one or more zinc(II) compounds.

5. The two-component coating composition of claim 4 , wherein said zinc(II) compounds comprise zinc(II) bis(2-ethylhexanoate), zinc(II) bis(n-octoate), zinc(II) bis(stearate) or mixtures thereof.

6. The two-component coating composition of claim 1 , wherein A2) comprises exclusively one or more polyether polyols having number average molecular weights M n of 2000 to 6000 g/mol, an average OH functionality of ≦1.95 and a degree of unsaturated end groups of less than or equal to 0.01 meq/g.

7. The two-component coating composition of claim 1 , wherein the equivalent ratio of the OH groups of the compounds of component A2) to the NCO-groups of the polyisocyanates from A1) and A3) is from 1:2 to 1:10.

8. The two-component coating composition of claim 1 , wherein A5) said stabilizers comprise organic or inorganic acids, acid halides or esters.

9. A coating obtained from the coating composition of claim 1 .

10. A substrate that has been coated with the composition of claim 1 .
