Polymerizable imidazolidinones as wet adhesion promoters in aqueous paints.

摘要

Polymerizable imidazolidinones impart wet adhesion and scrub resistance properties to all acrylic and vinyl/acrylic latex based paints. The imidazolidinones have the general structure: <CHEM> in which R<1> is hydrogen or a C1-C6 linear or branched alkyl group or hydroxyalkyl; X is a divalent radical selected from the group consisting of -(CH2)m-, <CHEM> in which R is a hydrogen or a methyl group, m is an integer from 0 to 5, and n is an integer from 1 to 5; R<2> is hydrogen or a methyl group; R<3> is hydrogen or <CHEM> in which R<4> is a hydrogen or a linear or branched C1 or C6 alkyl or hydroxyalkyl; R<4> and R<5> are independently hydrogen or a linear or branched C1-C4 alkyl group.
