Oxazolidone ring containing adducts
View Patent ↗Embodiments include oxazolidone ring containing adducts obtainable by combining an aliphatic epoxy compound, an aromatic epoxy compound, and a diisocyanate. Embodiments further include a curable powder coating composition including a resin component and a hardener component, where the resin component includes the oxazolidone ring containing adduct.
1. A curable powder coating composition comprising a resin component and a hardener component, where the resin component includes an oxazolidone ring containing adduct formed by reacting an aliphatic epoxy compound, a first diisocyanate and a catalyst to form a first adduct; and
reacting a second diisocyanate with a mixture of the first adduct and an aromatic epoxy compound to form the oxazolidone ring containing adduct, wherein the oxazolidone ring containing adduct is chemically reactive with the hardener component, and the hardener component is selected from the group consisting of amines, anhydrides, carboxyl-functional polyesters, and combinations thereof.
2. The curable powder coating composition of claim 1 , where the resin component further includes an additional epoxy resin selected from the group consisting of aliphatic epoxy compounds, aromatic epoxy compounds, alicyclic epoxy compounds, and combinations thereof.
3. The curable powder coating composition of claim 1 , where the oxazolidone ring containing adduct is from 5 weight percent (wt %) to 25 wt % of a total weight of the curable powder coating composition.
4. The curable powder coating composition of claim 1 , where the resin component further includes a polyester resin formed by reacting an acid component selected from the group consisting of dicarboxylic acids, aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, monocarboxylic acids or a combination thereof with an alcohol component that includes a dialcohol, where the polyester resin has a glass transition temperature of −5° C. to 80° C., a number average molecular weight of 5,000 to 30,000, and is less than 60 wt % of a total weight of the curable powder coating composition.
5. A product obtained by curing the curable powder coating composition as in claim 1 .
