Abstract

PATENTS
60S1-1002/JWH:mz/0313p Abstract of the Disclosure There is provided a platinum catalyzed addition curable polyorganosiloxane release coating composition containing a dialkylacetylenedicarboxylte inhibitor for preventing premature gellation at ambient temperatures but which will cure upon ultraviolet light exposure via a hydrosilation reaction to form a coating capable of releasing materials from substrates which would normally adhere thereto.

Description

lZ~9802 W-ACTIVATION OF ADDITION CU~E 8ILIC~NE COATINGS

The present invention relates to the ultraviolet light activated cure of certain silicone coatings. More particularly, the present invention relates to the ultraviolet light activated cure of platinum catalyzed, addition cured silicone coatings which contain dialkyl-acetylenedicarboxylate inhibitors.
Backgroun~ of the invention Silicone compositions which are curable by reaction of =SiH group with silicon-bonded olefinic groups in the presence of a hydrosilation catalyst are well known in B ~ e art; for example, as described in U.S. Patents Nos.
; 3,249,581 and 3,436,366. Because curing begins upon mixing of the aforesaid ingredients, it is the usual practice to provide addition curable compositions in two packages, one of which contains the olefinically unsaturated polysiloxane and the hydrosilation catalyst, and the other the organo-hydrogenpolysiloxane crosslinking agent.
When it is necessary to extend the pot life of addition curable organopolysiloxane compositions or provide one-component addition curable organopoly-siloxane composition, a cure inhibitor can be included therein. Generally, cure inhibitors are compounds which slow curing at ambient temperatures but do not retard curing at elevated temperatures. Such cure inhibitors are heat deactivated cure inhibitors, or are sufficiently volatile to be expelled from coating compositions at elevated temperature.

12~aO2 PATE~TS
60SI-1002/J~H:mz/0313p Particular heat deactivated ture inhibitors are the dialkylacetylenedicarboxylates. These inhibitors are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,347,346, to the instant inventor, and are described by the formula, ROOCC E CCOOR, where R is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical.

It is an object of the present invention to provide platinum catalyzed, addition tured silicone coa~ing compositions containing dialkylacetylenedicarboxylate inhibitors which are curable with ultraviolet light.

It is a further object of the present invention to provide a method to cure platinum catalyzed, addition curable silicone coating compositions containing dialkylacetylenedicarboxylate inhibitors which contains the step of exposing the coating composition to ultraviolet light.

Summary of the Invention The present invention provides a silicone composition con-taining a dialkylacetylenedicarboxylate inhibitor agent which is effective for retarding a platinum metal catalyzed addition cure hydrosilation reaction at room temperature but which will effectively cure upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation thereby r 20 forming a silicone coating which will tenaciously adhere to a substrate such as paper to which it is applied but will render said substrate substantially nonadherent to materials such as pressure sensitive adhesives which wDuld normally adhere thereto.

60SI -1002/J~H:mz/031 3p Small amounts of dialkylacetylenediacraboxylate inhibitor permit exceptionally long catalyzed pot-life without sacrifice of cure performance in a solventless paper release system.
Ordinarily, the effective amount of inhibitor ranges from approximately 0.05X to approximately l.OX by weight, and preferably from 0.1 to 0.25X by weight. Use o~ the inhibitor of the present invention results in adequate pot-life yet the composition rapidly cures to a smear-free and migration-free nonadherent surface when cured with ultraviolet light.

Dialkylacetylenedicarboxylates result from the diesterifi-cation reaction of 2-butynoic dicarboxylic acid with tWD
equivalents of alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, butanol, benzylic alcohol, allyl alcohol or mixtures of such alcohols.
Such reactions can be represented as:

HOOCC ~ CCOOH + 2 ROH -' ROOCC ~ CCOOR ~ 2 H20k or HOOCC - CCOOH + CCOOH + ROH + R'OH ROOCC - CCOOR' ~ 2H20.

Useful diesters prepared in this fashion include dimethyl-acetylenedicarboxylate, diethylacetylenedicarboxylate, dibutyl-acetylenedicarboxylate, methylbutylacetylenedicarboxylate, ~ethylethylacetylenedicarboxylate, etc. Particularly useful for the pract;ce of the present invention are those diesters where R represents methyl or ethyl groups.

Effective levels of dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate are quite soluble in silicone fluids, and it is not significantly volatile, having a boiling point above 200C at atmospheric 2~

~9~31)2 PATE~TS
60SI-1002/~ mz/0313p pressure. Additionally, dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate is readily available commercially. Furthermore, inasmuch as the total inhibitor concentration in the dimethylacetylenedicar-boxylate-inhibited polysiloxane is quite low, the total cost is S significantly reduced. Additionally, the small inhibitory amDunts of dimethylacetyl- enedicarboxylate utilized by the present invention will be substantially wholly included within the crosslinked polymer. Thus free dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate is not extant after the 1~ polymeric composition is cured.

Dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate will also effectively inhibit the platinum catalyzed condensation cure reaction for polysiloxane compositions having silanol functionality as well as inhibit the cure for those compositions exhibiting both silanol and vinyl functionality. A base polymer for such a composition can be, for example, a silanol chain-stopped poly-diorganosiloxane having pendant vinyl groups along the siloxane chain.

The ingredients described above may be mixed in any order and exposed to ultraviolet radiation for cure. Persons skilled in the art are familiar with ultraviolet light cure and are easily able to determine proper spectrum, flux and exposure time to obtain the cure.

A preferred use of the above described composition is as a release coating on a substrate. ~he composition is mixed, applied as a thin film on a substrate, and cured by exposure to PA~EN~S
60SI-lQ02/J~H:~z70313p ultraviolet light. ~he substrate may be non-porous, i.e.

Example 4 This experiment is to verify that ultraviolet light without thermal assist will trigger cure of Pt/DIMAC addition cured systems. A low intensity ultraviolet light source, (UY
Products, Inc. table top lamp, 115 volt, 0.35 amp.) was set up (unfocused) 1 3/4 inches away from an aluminum substrate having a 2 mil coating of bath composition 1. UV flux was determined 1 to be 6 J/cm2 hr. No significant difference could be ~etected between room temperature, 24C, and the measured temperature of the substrate after 15 minutes exposure to the low intensity source. The coating cured to a smear-free well-anchored rubbery surface in about 2.5 hours exposure, i.e.
