  • compositions are employed which can withstand an elevated temperature, for example 300° F. A composition withstands such a temperature when it does not thermally degrade, as by charring, or distort in shape to the point when it is not usable for its intended function (including fitting with other parts) at that temperature or when cooled down.
  • coatings such as paint, primers, sealants, adhesives and surface treatments which give the best adhesion to this polymer blend are those which have carboxylic acid functional group of the ethylene acry ⁇ lic acid and ethylene methacrylic acid copolymers.
  • these reactive components include but are not limited to epoxy resins, carbodiimides, enamines, keti ines, amines, and isocyanates.
  • These and other components capable of reacting with carboxylic acid functional groups are well known in the coatings industry and have been used for years not only to impart adhesion to many substrates but also to react with free acid in some formulations to prevent unde ⁇ sirable acid catalyzed reactions.
  • Polymer compositions useful for producing shaped, paint receptive motor vehicle parts such as wheel covers are molded from a blend of (A), (B) , and (C) components.
  • Various other compatible polymers, fillers, reinforcing agents, stabilizers and pigment materials can be added to the polymer composition with the resulting polymer blend being capable of being formed into finished articles that have highly paint receptive surfaces.

  • the preferred acid copoylmers are ethylene acrylic acid copolymers (EAA) or ethylene methacrylic acid copolymers (EMAA) .

Also, other higher homologs of the above described ethy ⁇ lene methacrylic acid copolymers such as ethylene ethacrylic acid or ethylene propacrylic acid copolymers may be suitable for use in this invention. They are not presently commer ⁇ cially available, so this could be not confirmed.
  • the melt index of the ethylene acrylic acid or ethylene methacrylic acid copolymers is in the range of from about 1 to 300.
  • the preferred melt index is between 5 and 30 ASTM 1238 condition E.
  • Component (B) the elastomer component of the instant invention, can be virtually any elastomer that is compatible or can be rendered compatible with the remaining ingredients of the blend.
  • the elastomer component can be ethylene propylene, ethylene-propylene diene monomer, styrene-butadiene-styrene, acrylonitrile butadiene, bromo- butyl rubber, etc.
  • compatible is intended to mean that when the components of the blend are combined, the resultant blend can be molded or extruded or formed into parts that have commercial utility.

  • the dissimilar higher ⁇ ⁇ -olefin is propylene.

  • the polypropylene component of the invention can be either a homopolymer of propylene or it can be a copolymer of propy ⁇ lene. When a copolymer of propylene and ethylene is uti ⁇ lized as the polypropylene component of this invention, the copolymer can either be a random or block copolymer.
  • the rubber content of the blend is more in the range of about 15 - 60 weight percent.
  • the upper limit of the ethylene acrylic acid or ethylene methacrylic acid copolymer is not particularly critical so long as the other polypropylene and rubber components are present in the above stated amounts. A minimum amount of 6% acid copolymer was required to achieve the desired results in all cases.

  • Such other materials may include other compatible polymers, such as polyethylene, ethylene ethyl acrylate, ethylene vinyl acetate, etc., and fillers and reinforcing agents such as mica, glass fibers, talc, calcium carbonate, barium sulfate and the like.
  • pigmenting agents such as carbon black and the like to the blends of this invention. It has been found that the use of certain acidic carbon blacks enhances the adhesion properties of some of these blends.

  • the polymer blends of this invention can be formed into useful articles by any known means such as by extruding the polymer blends, injection molding, blow molding, or thermo- forming.
  • the preferred method is injection molding.
  • the blends Once the blends have been formed into final finished articles, they can be painted with conventional types of paint which contain components which will react with the carboxylic acid in the blend and be sufficiently reactive with the paint, or be of sufficiently high molecular weight so as to anchor themselves in the polymer matrix of the paint.

  • Such treatment may include primers such as epoxy or urethane primers and their components.
  • the paint will adhere to the finished products to form a durable and tough finish that will resist peeling, chipping, high humidity conditions and gasoline. It has been found that the polymer blends of this invention are especially useful for producing finished articles that are painted with u ethane-polyester paints, such as PPG Industries Durethane 700 HSE (High Solids Enamel) .
  • test plaques measured approximately 3" x 6" and were approximately 0.125" thick.
  • test plaques were first wiped clean with 1, 1, 1 trichloroethane (TCE). After the TCE evaporated from the surface, the test plaques were all painted by a procedure wherein PPG industries Durethane 700 HSE enamel was applied to the surface of the test plaque. The application of the Durethane 700 HSE was made by spraying the paint in two passes, to entirely coat the plaque surface with each pass. A 1.5 to 2 minute flash time was allowed between each of the passes. The dry film thickness of the paint was between about 1.5 to about 1.8 mils.
  • TCE 1, 1, 1 trichloroethane
  • the PPG Industries Durethane 700 HSE paint that was utilized in all of the tests is a high solids elastomeric enamel that is composed of a polyester urethane backbone. Following the application of both coats of the paint to the surface of the test plaques, the plaques were cured by baking at 250°F for one hour.
  • the third test that was utilized to observe the paint adhesion of paint to the polymer blends of this invention utilized test plaques that were painted in accordance with the above-mentioned procedure.
  • the painted plaques were then placed in a humidity chamber that was maintained at 100% humdity at 38°C.
  • the test plaques were removed after 96 hours of exposure and examined for blisters, dulling of paint or any change in paint appearance. Thereafter a razor knife was used to cut X-shaped cross hatches through the paint film to the surface of the plaque and 3 M Company number 610 tape was applied to the cut area while pressing down with a fingernail or rubbing the backside of the tape with a pencil eraser. The tape was then removed by rapidly pulling the tape at a 90 degree angle to the surface of the test plaque.
  • TEST IV Test IV quantitatively measures the force in lbs./in. to peel a 1" wide strip of coating from the molded test pla ⁇ ques.
  • the test was initiated by pressing a 1" wide strip of tape onto the painted surface. A scribe along each side of the tape is made in the opposite direction of pull.
  • the delamination of the paint from the plaque is initiated by raising the leading edge of the paint with a sharp metal blade. Once started, tape is attached to the backside of the delaminated paint and secured to the traversing clamp of an Instron unit. Using an Instron with a load cell of 0-20 lbs. the paint was pulled at a 90° angle to the plaque.
  • Test I a method used by the automotive industry to evaluate paint durability, gave paint delamination at adhesion levels up to 0.7 lbs/in. In some cases, however, paints that had adhe ⁇ sion values of only 0.3 lbs/in. passed Test I. This appears to be caused by the tendency of the razor blade to force the coating into some of the softer substrates, thereby making it more difficult for the tape to pull it free.
  • adhesion levels of 0.8 lbs/in. or greater were considered as being highly durable.
  • Chart I demonstrates the use of homopolymer and copo ⁇ lymer polypropylene with two ethylene-propylene rubbers and various ethylene acrylic acid copolymers. It can be seen that initial paint adhesion is always improved by the addi- tio of ethylene acrylic acid to the formula.
  • Chart II demonstrates the wide variety of commercial methylene - ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid copo ⁇ lymers which may be successfully used in this invention.
  • Chart III demonstrates the wide variety of elastomers which can be used in this invention. It was generally found that any elastomer which is or can be made compatible with polypropylene can be used in this invention. Even some incompatible blends demonstrated improved paint receptivity. They were commercially unsuitable, however.
  • Chart IV demonstrates the superior solvent resistance of the formula containing Primacor 3440. This solvent resistance test. Test II is used to predict paint lift off from gasoline.
