Worlée, a Family Business

For 160 years now, Worlée has supplied its cus

tomers reliably with raw materials from Germany

and abroad. The company was founded in 1851

by Emil Heinrich Worlée in Hamburg for the

import and trade of natural resins sold as binders

to the lourishing paint and lacquer industry

during the industrial revolution.

Today 5th generation descendants manage the

family business. The former trade house has

grown into a modern industrial and service group, operating inter

nationally, reining and selling spices, dried vegetables, teas etc.

for the food industry as well as producing and distributing important

raw materials for the paint, lacquer and cosmetic industries.

WorléeChemie GmbH employs 250 persons in its plants in Lauenburg

and Lübeck/Northern Germany, producing a broad range of different

binders and additives for the paint and lacquer industries on the latest

equipment. The range comprises water and solventbased acrylic and

alkyd resins, polyesters, polyester polyols, polyether polyols, epoxy

esters and numerous additives for a variety of different applications.

In addition, Worlée’s technicans develop tailormade products for the

speciic requirements of the company’s customers.

Worlée’s scientists and application engineers establish formulations

for modern paints and lacquers, which comply with current and

expected future environmental and safety requirements. Some of

our resins already contain a large part of natural renewable raw

materials, thus contributing to the protection of our resources.

WorléeChemie GmbH takes its responsibilities towards its customers,

the society and the environment very seriously. Therefore its produc

tion plants meet the highest environmental and safety standards.

The processes used are organized professionally and optimized

continuously, to avoid any loss of material and energy.

On several occasions, Worlée has been awarded for its sustainable

management of energy, emissions and resources, the latest award

having been the one as a socalled “KlimaschutzUnternehmen”

(company protecting our climate). All units are certiied according

to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 14001. Most of Worlée’s employees stay

with the company for many years, often decades; this fact secures

high competence and continuity.

“Our success is also based on the experience and the commitment of

our employees at home and abroad, most of whom have been trained

within the company.”

With its highly qualiied personnel, its modern production plants and

an internationally operating procurement and sales network, Worlée is

the guarantor for a reliable raw material supply.

1. Epoxies: Use of a �� amine or a latent base (Ciba) as an activator.

2. Isocyanate: Reaction is faster; Addition of a �� amine or a latent

base (Ciba) as an activator.

3. Michael1Addition: Addition of a �� amine or a latent base (Ciba).

4. Unsaturated compounds: Radical initiator.

The direct use of primary and secondary amines is not possible, because these

amines reacts with the esterfunction of the polythiols.

Activator = Generally tertiary amine; latent base; radical initiator.

An increase in temperature also leads to a speeding up of the reaction.

Today’s need for high solids and waterborne coatings requires greater use of high reactivity, low viscosity resins and crosslinkers. Conversion of these systems into tough, chemically resistant, high performance coat-

ings at reduced cure temperatures can be accomplished with the use of a catalyst. Acrylics, alkyds, epoxies and polyesters with reactive functional groups, such as hydroxyl carbamate, siloxane or amide can be reacted with melamine, urea and ben-zoguanamine crosslinkers. The proper use of catalysts can facilitate the crosslinking reaction resulting in the following benefits: Shorter cure schedules Lower cure temperatures for thermoset high

solids and waterborne coatings Energy savings Improved hardness, gloss, humidity and

corrosion resistance Improved mechanical properties King Industries continues to develop catalysts to meet the ever expanding needs of a rapidly changing market.

Free Acid Or Latent Catalyst? While acid catalysts provide the fastest cure and lower curing temperatures, blocked or latent catalysts are typically chosen for systems requiring greater package stability. In addition, troublesome catalyst-pigment interaction can be reduced or eliminated with the use of blocked catalysts. As can be seen in the table which follows, King’s catalyst line is based upon a variety of acids. The middle column denotes the free acid versions while the far right column shows amine blocked or covalently bonded derivatives for applications requiring extended package stability.

The chemical structure of the catalyst, as well as the quantity used, can have a profound impact on film prop-erties such as adhesion, corrosion resistance, flexibility and impact resistance. These observations are appar-ent not only among varying acid types but also among different products within the same chemical family. The type of crosslinker used will also affect the choice of catalyst. High solids and waterborne coatings are typi-cally formulated with monomeric crosslinkers such as hexa(methoxymethyl)melamine (HMMM) or mixed ether melamine; reaction of these crosslinkers with hydroxy or carbamate functional groups is best achieved with strong acid catalysts like DNNDSA or p-TSA. More reactive crosslinkers, which are more polymeric but contain high levels of -NH groups, respond better to a weaker acid such as acid phosphates or low dosages of amine blocked sulfonic acids. The table to the right, matches the type of crosslinking agent and the acid catalyst most suitable for each class. King offers a broad selection of catalysts to satisfy

Formulating Information - Use Levels

In general, the time and temperature conditions of cure will determine the correct catalyst for the application. Strong acids with typical pKa strengths of approximately 0.5-0.7 should give equivalent rates of cure at equal molar concentra-tions of the acid group. Blocked catalysts will demand higher temperatures for full activation, and the pKa of the blocking agent attached to the acid will also influence the rate of reactivity. The two charts which follow provide general information on typical catalyst use levels by acid type based on a 30 minute cure schedule for a typical binder resin/HMMM ratio of 75/25. The percentage of catalyst shown is as supplied based on total resin solids. A ladder study of catalyst levels should be conducted to optimize the formulation. Do not over catalyze. Using too much catalyst can be a costly mistake and one that can cause film properties to suffer significantly.

Formulating Information - Incorporation

Methods of Incorporation As with any component in a coating, the level, method and order of addition may mean the difference between formula-tion success or failure. When incorporating acid and blocked acid catalysts the following factors should be considered:

Method of mixing Solvents present Pigments present

pH sensitivity of resins Temperature at time of addition Stability/pot life requirements

It is generally good practice in high solids coatings to pre-dilute a catalyst with butanol or isopropanol before adding it to the paint. Stirring during the addition can help avoid pigment shock and the generation of “hot spots” - although with amine neutralized or blocked catalysts, these problems are rare. In some cases, blocked catalysts can even be added to the pigment grind for uniform dispersion and improved solubility. The decomposition or reactivity temperature of the catalyst, though, should be safely above the grind temperature. King Industries’ products are typically supplied in a common solvent such as alcohol that will allow simple post-addition after milling of pigments and letdown with resins and solvents. Systems that are viscous, or those sensitive to pH differences induced by an acid component. Such systems often require further pre-dilution with alcohol. Blend the catalyst with an alcohol such as n-butanol or isoproponal at 1:1 ratio. Extremely sensitive systems may require the use of a blocked acid catalyst with a neutral or basic pH value. Mixed solvent systems with some products that are less soluble than others. In these cases, incorporate the catalyst in the more compatible resins and solvents before adding less soluble components. Waterborne systems that can suffer from rapid pH changes. Waterborne systems are generally formulated to a final pH range of 8-9. Use of a blocked catalyst in such systems will prevent the rapid pH changes that can upset the balance of resin solubility and cause a flocculated or gelled formulation. Formulations that include a pigment with high oil absorption characteristics. Hydrophilic catalysts such as p-TSA are not recommended in such cases. A more hydrophobic blocked catalyst such as DNNSA is recommended. The chart below shows the relative hydrophobicity of different catalyst types.

p-TSA > DDBSA > DNNDSA > DNNSA Hydrophilic Hydrophobic

K-KAT catalysts additionally offer a number of performance advantages, including: Selectivity in the presence of moisture,

less gassing Improved pot life/cure time relationship Mercury-like cure profile in elastomers Less toxic than tin and mercury catalysts Catalysis of secondary hydroxyl groups Cold temperature cure response

K-KAT XK-614 is a zinc complex catalyst for urethane coatings. Advantages include: Excellent hydrolytic stability Better pot life in 2K WB urethanes than DBTDL Selective catalysis of the polyol/isocyanate

reaction in the presence of moisture Excellent film properties K-KAT XK-614 has demonstrated excellent hydrolytic stability and an increased tendency to selectively accelerate the polyol/isocyanate reaction in the presence of moisture. These two characteristics make K-KAT XK-614 suitable for 2K waterborne urethane coating systems. A good indicator of pot life, or workable time, of a 2K waterborne urethane paint is gloss of cured films cast with aged paint. After the two components are com-bined, the aging process begins in the pot as polyol and water compete for free isocyanate groups. Gloss of films cast with aged paint is reduced as more water reacts with isocyanate in the pot.

There is a potential cost advantage with K-KAT XK-604, K-KAT XK-617 and K-KAT XK-618 compared to commercially available mercury catalysts. The catalyst levels used in the gel profile study are illustrated in the graph below. These catalyst levels provided similar gel times. Along with lower dose requirements, the K-KAT catalysts have a lower price compared to commercial mercury catalysts.

GEL PROFILE STUDY - Catalyst Concentration Polyether Triol/MDI Prepolymer

Urethane elastomer formulations are often modified with low molecular weight chain extending diols to enhance certain properties. A commonly used low molecular weight diol is 1,4-butanediol. Compatibility of metal carboxylate catalysts in 1,4-butanediol is limited. As demonstrated in the image below, K-KAT XK-618 is much more compatible with 1,4-butanediol compared to a bismuth carboxylate catalyst. K-KAT XK-618 can be used in non-foam applications provided a very low mois-ture content is maintained.

GEL PROFILE STUDY - K-KAT XK-604 Polyether Triol/Aliphatic HDI Trimer

K-KAT XK-604, K-KAT XK-617 and K-KAT XK-618 are organometallic complexes that are environmentally ac-ceptable alternatives to toxic mercury catalysts. Advan-tages include: Excellent gel profile in elastomeric systems Contains no mercury, tin or lead Efficiency Cost advantage

The graphs below depict gel profiles of a polyether triol crosslinked with an MDI prepolymer catalyzed with K-KAT XK-618 and the triol crosslinked with an aliphatic HDI trimer catalyzed with K-KAT XK-604. Both gel profiles are comparable to the mercury catalyzed profiles. Moisture content of 2K urethane elastomers should be minimized to avoid gassing. However, some degree of moisture being present is often inevitable. Of the three, K-KAT XK-604 would be recommended if gassing is a concern.

Use in Coatings K-FLEX 100% active polyester polyols are used primarily as modifiers for acrylic, alkyd, epoxy and polyester formu-lations with melamine or polyisocyanate crosslinkers. Typical modification levels are 5 to 15% on total resin solids. The low molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution of K-FLEX polyesters allow the formulation of higher solids coatings. Primary hydroxyl groups provide high reactivity for lower temperature cure. K-FLEX polyester polyols are used to: Increase film flexibility Improve resistance properties Reduce VOC’s - increase solids Achieve higher crosslink density Improve cure adhesion

K-FLEX® Polyester Polyols HOCH2 R CH2OOC—/W\—COOCH2—R—CH2OH

Solubility & Compliant Coatings Most K-FLEX polyesters have a narrow molecular weight distribution (MWD). As a result, they have excellent com-patibility with a wide range of resins and excellent solubility across a broad range of solvents and solubility parameters including some of the more difficult solvents like PC - propylene carbonate, DMC - dimethyl carbonate, acetone, TBA - t-butyl acetate and p-Chlorobenzotrifluoride (OXSOL® 100*). Additionally, as shown in the photo,

K-FLEX polyesters can be used to compatibilize other resins into these solvents. The narrow MWD also provides for an efficient reduction in viscosity with a low level of solvent to achieve VOC compliance.

The K-FLEX polyesters tend to be soluble in most solvents, but not in aliphatic hydrocarbons or in water. Ketones tend to be very efficient solvents for them and one can achieve a spray viscosity at about 80% solids in MIBK.

Florida Exposure - Exterior Durability As shown below, an acrylic clearcoat over a white base coat was modified with K-FLEX 188 at 16% TRS and sub-jected to three years of Florida Exposure resulting in mini-mal change in gloss where the control showed a steady and significant reduction in gloss over time.

Mechanical Properties - 1/4” Casting* K-FLEX/HDI Biuret (1:04:1.00 ratio)

K-FLEX polyesters and urethane diols can be added to the grind or letdown with no special incorporation tech-niques. To formulate a high solids pigment grind the addition of at least 5% of a high solids acrylic resin is recommended in combination with a K-SPERSE dispersant.

Isocyanate Ratios The high hydroxyl number of K-FLEX products necessi-tate a careful calculation of the isocyanate ratio to assure complete crosslinking of the polyol hydroxyl groups. A NCO:OH ratio of 1.04:1.00 to 1.10:1.00 is typical. K-FLEX A307 has the lowest isocyanate demand.

Melamine Ratio Due to the high hydroxyl number of K-FLEX modifiers (with the exception of A307), a ratio of K-FLEX / HMMM of 60 / 40 is normally recommended. This provides a 1 / 1 equivalent of hydroxyl group to methylol group, assuming an equivalent weight of 160 g/eq for HMMM. Properties may be adjusted for higher hardness with a lower K-FLEX / HMMM ratio or improved flexibility with a higher K-FLEX / HMMM ratio. K-FLEX A307 has a lower crossliner demand and therefore does not require the higher levels of HMMM. Adjustments in melamine levels should be made based on equivalent weights for other types of melamines (high imino, polymeric, etc…).

K-FLEX® Urethane Diols

K-FLEX Urethane diols are low molecular weight (MW) diols with an aliphatic urethane backbone and a narrow MW distribution. They allow the formulation of higher solids, lower VOC waterborne (WB) coatings. They have been developed to help achieve VOC compliance with the added benefit of improved film performance. Their low molecular weight provides a higher crosslink density yielding harder films with greater exterior durability. The urethane diols are useful in various industrial systems, such as: Amino crosslinked systems 2-component polyurethanes Blocked Isocyanates Prepolymer synthesis The K-FLEX UD aliphatic urethane backbone provides excellent hydrolytic stability. It also allows the incorpora-tion of aliphatic urethane functionality possible without the use of isocyanates. K-FLEX urethane diols are soluble in water and most polar organic solvents, in the absence of surfactants, neutralizing amines and co-solvents. They are not soluble in more hydrophobic solvents like aliphatic hydrocarbons or aromatics. However, varying levels of hydrophobic solvents can be tolerated depending on the solubility parameters of the other solvents present.

exterior exposure Improved resistance to solvents and chemicals Greater viscosity stability

Performance In Solventborne Systems Even with low level K-FLEX UD-320 modification, a decrease of VOC is possible while boosting performance of the overall formulation

Low level modification of melamine crosslinked systems resulted in harder films with improved QUV resistance and exterior durability. Modification of 2-component acryl-ics polyurethanes provided harder and more flexible films with improved exterior durability.

Improved Flow/Leveling & Higher Gloss The water solubility of the urethane diol provides improved wetting over various substrates, as well as, improved flow and leveling. The end result is higher gloss waterborne coatings as can be seen below.

Waterborne Systems

Improved Resistance Properties The urethane backbone of the urethane diols provides excellent hydrolytic stability for long term storage in water-borne formulations. This excellent hydrolytic stability also provides improvements in the humidity, salt spray and boiling water resistance of fully crosslinked films. The results shown demonstrate these improvements for two waterborne polyester/HMMM baking enamels.

K-PURE® Catalysts for Epoxy Systems

K-PURE CXC Catalysts for epoxy/hydroxyl and acid anhydride systems are most commonly used in solvent less systems. K-PURE CXC-1612 and CXC-1614 These catalysts are based on super acids, hexafluoroanti-monate or triflic acid and can be used in conjunction with cycloaliphatic epoxies, glycidyl ester and glycidyl ether resins. Polymerization of the epoxy resin occurs via a cationic mechanism, thus allowing co-polymerization with hy-droxyl, lactone, oxetane or vinyl functional groups.

One component, high solids or solvent less systems for high speed or low temperature applications can be obtained using this technology. The unique blocking group under goes a chemical re-arrangement upon activation, that eliminates any volatile components to be generated during cure. Additional Offerings King offers additional catalysts for epoxy systems under its K-PURE® tradename. Found on King’s web site, this family of catalysts developed for the electronics industry includes non-antimony catalysts with higher activation temperatures and higher purity.

Mechanism The NACORR molecules have a polar metal sulfonate group and a long hydrophobic tail. The NACORR prod-ucts prevent corrosion by two distinct mechanisms including: Polar metal sulfonate is attracted to the metal sub-strate where it helps to electrically passivate any potential anodic sites

The hydrophobic tail is oriented outward away from the metal substrate, excluding water from any potential anodic sites. This eliminates the electrolyte, one of the 4 required elements for corrosion (anode, cathode, conduc-tor and electrolyte)

Performance - Synergy With Anti-corrosive Pigments In Waterborne Systems

To achieve the level of corrosion resistance found with chromates and other environmentally unacceptable anti-corrosive pigments, the NACORR products are often used synergistically with more environmentally friendly anti-corrosive pigments.

Please find below a table of King Industries, Inc. formula-tions demonstrating synergy with a wide variety of com-monly used anti-corrosive pigments, including; borates, phosphosilicates and phosphates.

Use Levels & Incorporation

Generally, addition levels of 1-3% based on total weight of the paint are effective in enhancing corrosion protection. Due to the polarity of the metal sulfonate, highly pigmented systems or pigments with high surface areas may require higher levels of NACORR. This is due to the affinity of NACORR for the pigment surface. If active pigments are reduced or eliminated, they should be replaced with inert pigments to maintain solids and critical pigment volume concentrations. The NACORR products are based on a variety of different metal salts. The NACORR metal salts appear to be very system specific. Some work better than others, depending on the resin system, type of anti-corrosive pigment, and other formulation components. It is best to evaluate several of the NACORR products in your formulation to find the best performing product. Once a product is selected, it can be optimized by conducting a ladder study to determine a use level that best meets your performance needs.

SYSTEM Incorporation Method

Solvent Based Can be post added with mild agitation or added to mill base.

Water Reducible

With Water In Mill Base If possible, remove water from base and add it to the letdown. Otherwise post-add under high agitation.

No Water In Mill Base Add 0.5 -1.0% to mill base by premixing the NACORR, solvent and resin prior to pigment. Add balance to letdown prior to any water addition

No Co-solvents Post-add under high agitation during letdown prior to any water addition

With Co-solvents Premix with coalescing solvent prior to addition. A typical ratio of 1:1 is recommended. Next add mixture under high agitation prior to any water addition.

With Co-solvents & Amines Premix with coalescent and amine. Add under high agitation prior to any water. A typical starting ratio for premix: 50% Nacorr, 45% coalescent and 5% amine by weight.

Powder Dry blend with the premix at 1% to 3% based on total weight.

K-Sperse 152 – Synergist and Catalytic Effects K-Sperse 152 is very effective as a synergist with polymeric dispersants to optimize carbon black and red shade phtalo blue dispersions. Formulators should be aware of a possible catalytic effect with K-Sperse 152. The zinc in K-Sperse 152 may complex with the driers and accelerators used in air oxidized paints. K-Sperse 152 can also contribute to the cure response in thermoset HMMM systems. K-Sperse 131/132 should be used in place of K-Sperse 152 to avoid these catalytic effects. Pages 33 & 34

K-SPERSE Polymeric Dispersants

K-Sperse Polymeric Dispersants K -Sperse A503 and A504 are acid functional (amine free) dispersants that do not require a synergist as some commercial polymeric dispersants do. K- Sperse A503 is a good general purpose dispersant for organic pigments, and was designed to provide optimum jettness of carbon blacks and simplicity of use. K -Sperse A504 was designed for solventless systems. Advantages include: Best jettness with carbon black Increased potlife in 2K urethanes Small effect on melamine cure rates Excellent flood float resistance

K-Sperse 5100 K-SPERSE 5100 is a solvent free dispersing agent for solventborne and solvent free systems. It is particularly effective in 100% solids epoxy systems. This low molecular weight polymer contains hydroxyl and carboxyl functionality and is recommended for both organic and inorganic pigments/fillers. It can be used as the sole dispersing resin or as a modifier for resins with poor wetting characteristics. The graph below demonstrates the effectiveness of K-SPERSE 5100 to disperse white and black pigments in a 100% solids, epoxy resin. The pigment to binder ratio was: White: 1:1, Black: 7:1. K-Sperse levels were at 5% on pigment for the TiO2 and 50% for the black.
