Abstract
Abstract This invention involves a unique wood and furniture coating composition comprising about 50 to about 85% by weight of an acrylated cellulosic, about 15 to about 45% by weight of an acrylated oligomer about 0.1 to about 10% by weight of a ultraviolet photoinitiator and sufficient solvent to render the resulting solution handleable under processing conditions. The resulting coating may be applied by a unique process that involves spraying the coating over a base coated wood substrate, flashing the solvent off, rubbing, sanding or otherwise processing the coating and then ultraviolet curing the coating by subjecting the coating to ultraviolet curing conditions. The resulting coating possesses excellent cured state film properties and good chemical resistance. Its film properties are at least equivalent to prior art cellulose nitrate coatings but it is far superior to these coatings in terms of its chemical and water resistance. In comparison to prior art urea/formaldehyde curable systems, the instant invention provides far superior processing and film appearance properties.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
79 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition comprising about 50 to about 85 percent by weight of an acrylated cellulosic compound prepared by reacting an isocyanato acrylate with an hydroxyl containing cellulose acetate carboxylate such that after said reaction essentially no free isocyanate groups are present; about 15 to about 45 percent by weight of an acrylated oligomer; about 0.1 to about 10 percent by weight of an ultraviolet initiator and sufficient solvent to render the coating handleable under application conditions.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
79 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition comprising about 50 to about 85 percent by weight of an acrylated cellulosic compound prepared by reacting an isocyanato acrylate with an hydroxyl containing cellulose acetate carboxylate such that after said reaction essentially no free isocyanate groups are present; about 15 to about 45 percent by weight of an acrylated oligomer; about 0.1 to about 10 percent by weight of an ultraviolet initiator and sufficient solvent to render the coating handleable under application conditions.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein about 0.3 to about 1.0 equivalents of the isocyanato acrylate is reacted with each hydroxyl equivalent on the cellulose acetate carboxylate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
125 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition comprising: (a) about 50 to about 85 percent by weight of an acrylated cellulosic compound prepared by reacting a hydroxy containing cellulose acetate carboxylate wherein the carboxylate contains from 1 to 4 carbon atoms with an isocyanatoacrylate having the general formula: ##STR20## wherein R is H, CH 3 or CH 2 --CH 3 and R' is C 1 -C 8 alkyl and wherein about 0.3 to about 1.0 equivalents of isocyanate are reacted with each hydroxyl equivalent on the cellulose acetate carboxylate; (b) about 15 to about 45 percent by weight of an acrylated oligomer; (c) about 0.1 to about 10 percent by weight of added ultraviolet photoinitiator; and (d) sufficient solvent to render the coating handleable under application conditions.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
125 words
An ultraviolet curable coating composition comprising: (a) about 50 to about 85 percent by weight of an acrylated cellulosic compound prepared by reacting a hydroxy containing cellulose acetate carboxylate wherein the carboxylate contains from 1 to 4 carbon atoms with an isocyanatoacrylate having the general formula: ##STR20## wherein R is H, CH 3 or CH 2 --CH 3 and R' is C 1 -C 8 alkyl and wherein about 0.3 to about 1.0 equivalents of isocyanate are reacted with each hydroxyl equivalent on the cellulose acetate carboxylate; (b) about 15 to about 45 percent by weight of an acrylated oligomer; (c) about 0.1 to about 10 percent by weight of added ultraviolet photoinitiator; and (d) sufficient solvent to render the coating handleable under application conditions.
