Coating method and hardener for polyurethane paint
View Patent ↗[Problem] In a coating method of a two-coat one-bake system where a clear coat paint is coated after a base coat paint is coated, then these two coated layers are simultaneously hardened, adhesive strength between the two coated layers is to increase in comparison with the conventional method. [Solution] Provided is a coating method; A specific hardener is used in the clear coat paint. The hardener is one containing a polyisocyanate derived from 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate, satisfying all the following conditions: 1) Hardener does not virtually include diisocyanate monomer, 2) Viscosity of hardener is not more than 1000 mPa·s/23° C., 3) Content of HDI trimer in hardener is not less than 60 weight %, and 4) Content of HDI dimer in hardener is less than 10 weight %.
1. A coating method comprising applying a base coat paint comprising an active hydrogen-containing resin and a blocked isocyanate, without hardening the base coat paint by cross-linking, subsequently coating a clear coat paint comprising a hardener and an active hydrogen-containing resin on the base coat paint, hardening the base coat paint and the clear coat paint simultaneously by cross-linking, wherein the clear coat paint is a two-pack polyurethane paint with a mole ratio of 0.9 to 2.0 in NCO/H (active hydrogen), wherein the hardener comprises a polyisocyanate derived from 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate, satisfying all the following conditions:
1) the hardener includes an amount of diisocyanate monomers included in polyisocyanate of 0.25 weight % or less
2) viscosity of hardener when it is not diluted with any organic solvent is not more than 1000 mPa·s/23° C.,
3) content of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate trimer in hardener is not less than 60 weight %, wherein the 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate trimer comprises an isocyanurate structure of HDI, an iminooxadiazinedione structure of HDI, or mixtures thereof, and
4) content of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate dimer in hardener is less than 10 weight %.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the hardener for the clear coat paint comprises not less than 13 mole % of iminooxadiazinedione ring of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate relative to the total of isocyanurate ring and iminooxadiazinedione ring.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the amount of active hydrogen is from 0.01 to 2 weight % of active hydrogen atom to the weight of resin.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polyisocyanate derived from 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate is 60 weight % or more relative to the hardener.
5. The method of claim 2 , wherein the amount of iminooxadiazinedione ring of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate is 25 mole % or more.
6. The method of claim 2 , wherein the amount of iminooxadiazinedione ring of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate is 30 to 80 mole % or more.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the polyisocyanate derived from 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate is 95 weight % or more relative to the hardener.
