Abstract

There is provided a curable composition being free from coloration and having excellent curability, adhesion and weather resistance by use of a non-organotin catalyst. A curable composition comprising (A) a polyoxyalkylene polymer and/or a (meth)acrylate polymer containing a silicon-containing group being capable of crosslinking by forming siloxane bonds, (B) a titanium chelate coordinated with β-ketoester, and (C) a photostabilizer, wherein a main component of the photostabilizer (C) is a photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring.

Claims (28)

1. A curable composition comprising:

(A) an organic polymer having a silicon-containing group capable of crosslinking by siloxane bond formation, which polymer is a polyoxyalkylene polymer and/or a (meth)acrylate polymer,

(B) a titanium chelate represented by the following general formula (1) or (2), and

(C) a photostabilizer,

wherein a main component of the photostabilizer (C) is a photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring

General formula (1):

wherein each of n R 1 s is independently a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, each of (4-n) R 2 s is independently hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, each of (4-n) R 3 s and (4-n) R 4 s is independently a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, n is 0, 1, 2 or 3;

General formula (2):

wherein R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are the same as defined above, R 5 is a substituted or unsubstituted divalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms.

2. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein a photostabilizer (C-2) having a benzotriazole ring is not contained as the photostabilizer (C).

3. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein a minor component of the photostabilzer (C) comprises a photostabilizer (C-2) having a benzotriazole ring and the content of the (C-2) is less than 0.1 part by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the polymer (A).

4. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein said polymer (A) is a polyoxypropylene polymer and/or (meth)acrylate polymer.

5. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein the glass transition temperature of the polymer (A) is not more than 20° C.

6. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein said photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring is one or more kinds selected from benzoate ultraviolet absorbers, triazine ultraviolet absorbers, cyano acrylate ultraviolet absorbers, benzophenone ultraviolet absorbers and hindered amine photostabilizers.

7. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein said photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring is a benzoate ultraviolet absorber and/or a hindered amine photostabilizer.

8. The curable composition according to claim 6 , wherein said hindered amine photostabilizer is a hindered amine photostabilizer having no —NH— group.

9. The curable composition according to claim 1 , wherein with respect to 100 parts by weight of the polymer (A), the titanium chelate (B) is contained in an amount of from 0.1 to 20 parts by weight and the photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring is contained in an amount of from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight.

10. The curable composition according to claim 2 , wherein said polymer (A) is a polyoxypropylene polymer and/or (meth)acrylate polymer.

11. The curable composition according to claim 3 , wherein said polymer (A) is a polyoxypropylene polymer and/or (meth)acrylate polymer.

12. The curable composition according to claim 2 , wherein the glass transition temperature of the polymer (A) is not more than 20° C.

13. The curable composition according to claim 3 , wherein the glass transition temperature of the polymer (A) is not more than 20° C.

14. The curable composition according to claim 4 , wherein the glass transition temperature of the polymer (A) is not more than 20° C.

15. The curable composition according to claim 2 , wherein said photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring is one or more kinds selected from benzoate ultraviolet absorbers, triazine ultraviolet absorbers, cyano acrylate ultraviolet absorbers, benzophenone ultraviolet absorbers and hindered amine photostabilizers.

16. The curable composition according to claim 3 , wherein said photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring is one or more kinds selected from benzoate ultraviolet absorbers, triazine ultraviolet absorbers, cyano acrylate ultraviolet absorbers, benzophenone ultraviolet absorbers and hindered amine photostabilizers.

17. The curable composition according to claim 4 , wherein said photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring is one or more kinds selected from benzoate ultraviolet absorbers, triazine ultraviolet absorbers, cyano acrylate ultraviolet absorbers, benzophenone ultraviolet absorbers and hindered amine photostabilizers.

18. The curable composition according to claim 5 , wherein said photostabilizer (C-1) having no benzotriazole ring is one or more kinds selected from benzoate ultraviolet absorbers, triazine ultraviolet absorbers, cyano acrylate ultraviolet absorbers, benzophenone ultraviolet absorbers and hindered amine photo stabilizers.

19. A sealant comprising said curable composition according to claim 1 .

20. An adhesive comprising said curable composition according to claim 1 .
