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 (17)

1. A primer composition comprising:

(a) 8%-23% by weight of at least one polymer B selected from the group consisting of saturated polyester resins, epoxy-phenol resin precondensates, mixtures of epoxy resins and phenol resins, and mixtures thereof;

(b) 1.5%-15% by weight of at least one crosslinker resin selected from the group consisting of melamine resins, blocked isocyanate resins and mixtures thereof;

(c) 10%-40% by weight of at least one copolyamide-based hotmelt adhesive comprising a copolyamide, at least one block isocyanate, and at least one epoxy component; and

(d) 30%-80% by weight of at least one organic solvent,

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

wherein the epoxy component of the hotmelt adhesive c) is different from the epoxy resins of the polymer B.

2. A coating comprising at least one layer of the primer composition according to claim 1 .

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

applying at least one layer of the primer composition according to claim 1 to the metal; then

thermally crosslinking the primer composition; and then

applying the plastic to the coated metal and bonding the metal to the plastic.

4. The process according to claim 3 , wherein at least one layer of an adhesion promoter composition is applied to the thermally crosslinked primer composition and the adhesion promoter composition is thermally crosslinked before the plastic is applied to the coated metal and the metal is bonded to the plastic.

5. The process according to claim 4 , wherein the adhesion promoter composition comprises:

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, polyimide resins and mixtures thereof; and

at least one copolyamide-based hotmelt adhesive.

6. A metal substrate coated with at least one primer composition according to claim 1 .
