Development and Research of High Performance Clearcoat with Ultra-Curing(Fast Drying)for Automotive Refinish
The main problems and solutions of fast drying clearcoat for automotive refinish were discribed.A polyol ultra-curing resin synthesized from p-hydroxybenzoic acid as hydroxyl monomer is used as the main resin in addition to the hyperbranched polyester HPE as the auxiliary resin,the dibutyltin dilaurate(T-12)as drying agent,the MAK and EEP with high dissolving power and low volatilization rate as main solvent to prepare the clearcoat.The hardener is prepared using Bayer 4470 and BasfHI-100 at a ratio of 1:6.The mixed composition of the clearcoat and the hardener has long activation period and slow dust-free drying time,meanwhile,it can be sprayed on a whole carbody surface.The cured film shows fast drying behavior and good hardness and crosslink density.The clearcoat has good prospects in the field of automotive refinish.
