تاريخ النشر: May 12, 2015
Appl. No: 13/147310
Application Filed: February 22, 2010
مستخلص: Latex emulsions are disclosed which can be used in the formation of coating compositions that are not water sensitive, have good blush resistance and retortability. In some embodiments, the coating compositions are used to coat substrates such as cans and packaging materials for the storage of food and beverages. Coating compositions can be prepared by mixing an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component and a stabilizer comprising a strong acid, in a carrier to form a monomer emulsion, reacting the monomer emulsion with an initiator to form the latex emulsion, and reacting the latex emulsion with a neutralizer. Methods of coating substrates with the coating compositions, and substrates coated with the coating compositions are also disclosed. The latex emulsions can be prepared by mixing an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component and a stabilizer comprising a strong acid, in a carrier to form a monomer emulsion, and reacting the monomer emulsion with an initiator to form the latex emulsion, wherein the stabilizer is present in an amount from about 0.1 to about 2.0 by weight polymeric solids.

Claim: 1. A method of coating a can or packaging comprising: a) preparing a latex emulsion by mixing, in the presence of ammonia, dimethylethanolamine, 2-dimethylamino-2-methyl-1-propanol or a mixture thereof, an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component and a stabilizer comprising a strong acid, in a carrier to form a monomer emulsion and reacting the monomer emulsion with an initiator to form the latex emulsion; b) reacting the latex emulsion with a neutralizer to form a coating composition; and c) applying the coating composition to the can or packaging.
Claim: 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the ethylenically unsaturated monomer component is present in an amount from about 2% to about 50% based on total mixture.
Claim: 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizer comprises dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid.
Claim: 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizer is present in an amount from about 0.1% to about 2.0% by weight polymeric solids.
Claim: 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reaction of step b) is conducted in the presence of a solvent.
Claim: 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the carrier is present in an amount from about 50 to about 90% of the total latex emulsion.
Claim: 7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the initiator is present in an amount from about 0.001% to about 5% based on the weight of ethylenically unsaturated monomer component.
Claim: 8. A can or packaging coated by the method of claim 1 .
Claim: 9. A coating composition prepared by a method comprising: a) preparing a latex emulsion by mixing, in the presence of ammonia, dimethylethanolamine, 2-dimethylamino-2-methyl-1-propanol or a mixture thereof, an ethylenically unsaturated monomer component and a stabilizer comprising a strong acid, in a carrier to form a monomer emulsion and reacting the monomer emulsion with an initiator to form the latex emulsion; and b) reacting the latex emulsion with a neutralizer to form the coating composition, wherein the stabilizer is present in an amount from about 0.1 to about 2.0 by weight polymeric solids.
Claim: 10. The coating composition of claim 9 , wherein the neutralizer is present in an amount from about 0 to about 100% based on the amount of acid to be neutralized.
Claim: 11. The coating composition of claim 9 , wherein the reaction of step b) is conducted in the presence of a solvent.
Claim: 12. The coating composition of claim 11 , wherein the solvent is present in an amount from about 0 to about 90% by weight polymeric solids.
