Two-component paint composition and multilayer coating formation method using this

Abstract

[Purpose] Among two-component top coat paints for the automobile coatings field, wherein the base resin paint is circulated from a main tank with a pump upstream of the coating gun, and mixing and coating are effected using a curing agent supplied from a nitrogen-sealed tank and a two-component mixing device, to provide a paint composition with which problems such as thickening and gelling of the circulating base resin paint do not occur, coating is possible with a stabilized constant coating viscosity, and with which the paint film after stoving exhibits excellent Scratch resistance, stain resistance, acid resistance and gasoline resistance, and a multilayer coating formation method using this. [Solution] The present invention provides a two-component paint composition which is applied directly after mixing a base resin and a curing agent, wherein the base resin (A) contains a hydroxy group-containing acrylic resin (A-1) and a curing catalyst (A-2) as essential components, the curing agent (B) contains an isocyanate Compound (B-1) and an alkoxysilyl group-containing copolymer (B-2) as essential components, the aforesaid hydroxy group-containing acrylic resin (A-1) has a hydroxyl value of 80 to 180 mg KOH/g, a glass transition temperature of −40 to 40° C., and a weight average molecular weight of 2,000 to 20,000 g/mol, the aforesaid alkoxysilyl group-containing copolymer (B-2) is a copolymer obtained by copolymerizing 30 to 80 parts by weight of a vinylic monomer containing alkoxysilyl groups and 20 to 70 parts by weight of other copolymerizable monomers, its weight average molecular weight is 2,000 to 20,000 g/mol, and it does not contain hydroxy groups, carboxyl groups or amino groups which react with isocyanate groups.
