  • Patent number: 11041093
    Abstract: Aqueous dispersions including multistage-prepared polymers of mixtures of olefinically unsaturated compounds are disclosed. The aqueous dispersions include at least one polyurethane containing olefinically unsaturated groups. Production and use of the aqueous dispersions, particularly in the field of automotive finishing, is disclosed. The disclosure further relates to an aqueous basecoat material including the multistage-prepared polymers, and also to a method for producing a multicoat paint system using the aqueous basecoat material.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 20, 2017
    Date of Patent: June 22, 2021
    Assignee: BASF Coatings GmbH

  • Patent number: 8790752
    Abstract: Disclosed is a coating composition based on aprotic solvents and comprising at least one hydroxyl-containing compound (A) and at least one compound (B) having isocyanate groups and having at least one silane group of the formula (I) —X—Si—R?xG3-x??(I) with G=identical or different hydrolyzable groups, R?=hydrogen, alkyl or cycloalkyl, X=organic radical, R?=alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl or aralkyl, x=0 to 2, and characterized in that (i) the compound (B) containing isocyanate groups and silane groups comprises uretdione groups, and (ii) the compound (B) has been prepared from a linear aliphatic diisocyanate. The present invention additionally provides multistage coating methods using these coating compositions, and the use of the coating compositions as clearcoat, and application of the coating method for automotive refinish and/or for the coating of plastics substrates.

  • Publication number: 20080249250
    Abstract: Copolymers (A) containing lateral, primary and/or secondary carbamate groups (a12) and groups (a31) which can be activated with actinic radiation, preparable by I. in a first process step copolymerizing (a1) a monomer containing (a11) a group of the general formula I: CH2?C(R)C(O)—O—, ??(I) in which the variable R is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a nitrile group or an alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and (a12) a primary and/or secondary carbamate group, and (a2) a monomer containing (a21) a free-radically or ironically polymerizable, olefinically unsaturated double bond and (a22) a reactive functional group which is not reactive with the carbamate groups (a12) and is not polymerizable with the double bond (a21), to give the copolymer (a1/a2), and II.
