  • thermosetting powder compositions comprising as a binder a mixture of a hyperbranched polyol, a polyester containing hydroxyl groups, optionally a semi-crystalline polyester containing hydroxyl groups and a blocked isocyanate as crosslinking.
  • the invention relates to thermosetting powder compositions which, by firing, give coatings of low gloss.
  • the invention also relates to the use of these compositions for the preparation of powder paints and varnishes providing coatings of low gloss, as well as to the coatings obtained from these compositions.
  • low gloss used to qualify the coatings described in this specification means that these coatings have a gloss, measured according to ASTM D523 at 60 °, ranging from 0 to 70%.
  • this term encompasses coatings which can be described as "semi-matt” for glosses ranging from 31 to 70%, or “matt " for glosses ranging from 0 to 30%, according to the same standard.
  • thermosetting compositions in the form of powders are widely used as paints and varnishes for coating the most diverse objects.
  • thermosetting powder compositions have already found a wide outlet in the construction of household appliances, garden furniture, accessories for the automotive industry, etc. They generally contain an organic thermosetting binder, fillers, pigments, catalysts and various additives to adapt their behavior to their use.
  • thermosetting powder compositions There were mainly two types of thermosetting powder compositions; on the one hand, those which contain as a binder a mixture of polymers with carbon groups such as a polyester or a carboxylated polyacrylate and of epoxidized compounds, mainly triglycidyl isocyanurate and, on the other hand, those which contain as binder a mixture of polymers with hydroxyl groups, the most. often a hydroxylated polyester with isocyanates blocked with phenol, caprolactam. by the uretdione, etc.
  • Powder compositions generally give coatings which have good adhesion to the metal substrate (steel or aluminum), good resistance to impact and to solvents, and excellent resistance to weathering.
  • semi-crystalline polyesters have been described, used alone or in admixture with amorphous polyesters, for the preparation of powdered thermosetting compositions. These polyesters contain carboxyl or hydroxyl functions, and they are used with the usual crosslinkers for this type of polyester. This type of composition provides coatings which have a better balance, compared to the amorphous polyesters used alone, of properties such as flexibility and surface equality.
  • one or more specific matting agents such as silica, talc, chalk and metal salts are introduced into the powder composition, in addition to the conventional binder and pigments.
  • the reduction in gloss is often insufficient and there is a marked deterioration in the properties of the paint coatings, for example a lack of adhesion to the metal substrate.
