Abstract

The invention provides an adhesion promoter composition comprising at least one polymer A selected from at least one epoxy resin-phenol resin precondensate, a mixture of at least one epoxy resin-phenol resin precondensate and epoxy resins, a mixture of epoxy resins and phenol resins, polyamide resins and mixtures thereof, and at least one copolyamide-based hotmelt adhesive. Additionally described is a primer composition comprising at least one polymer B selected from saturated polyester resins, epoxy-phenol resin precondensates, mixtures of epoxy resins and phenol resins, and mixtures thereof, at least one crosslinker resin selected from the group consisting of melamine resins, blocked isocyanate resins and mixtures thereof, at least one catalyst, and at least one copolyamide-based hotmelt adhesive.

Claims (20)

1. An adhesion promoter composition, comprising:

a) at least one polymer A selected from the group consisting of at least one epoxy resin-phenol resin precondensate, a mixture of at least one epoxy resin-phenol resin precondensate and epoxy resins, a mixture of epoxy resins and phenol resins, polyamide resins, and mixtures thereof; and

b) at least one hotmelt adhesive comprising a copolyamide, at least one blocked polyisocyanate and at least one epoxy component,

wherein:

the copolyamide of the hotmelt adhesive b) is different from the polyamide resins of the polymer A; and

the epoxy component of the hotmelt adhesive b) is different from epoxy resins of the polymer A.

2. The adhesion promoter composition according to claim 1 , comprising:

a) 5% to 25% by weight of the at least one polymer A;

b) 5% to 50% by weight of the at least one hotmelt adhesive; and

c) 30% to 80% by weight of at least one organic solvent,

based in each case on a total weight of the composition, where the percentages of all the constituents add up to 100% by weight.

3. The adhesion promoter composition according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one crosslinker resin selected from the group consisting of melamine resins, blocked isocyanate resins and mixtures thereof.

4. A coating, comprising at least one layer of the adhesion promoter composition according to claim 1 .

5. A hybrid component, comprising metal and plastic, wherein the metal has been bonded to the plastic at least by a coating according to claim 4 .

6. A process for producing a hybrid component comprising metal and plastic, the process comprising applying the coating according to claim 4 as adhesion promoter between the metal and the plastic.

7. A process for producing a hybrid component comprising metal and plastic, the process comprising:

a) applying at least one layer of the adhesion promoter composition according to claim 1 to the metal;

b) thermally crosslinking the composition; and

c) then applying the plastic to the coated metal and bonding the metal to the plastic.

8. The process according to claim 7 , wherein the plastic is applied to the coated metal by injection moulding, pressing, laminating, in-mould coating or (co-)extrusion.
