Acrylourethane reaction product

Claim 1

The ungelled reaction product, by weight based on total polymer solids, of (a) 50-70% of an acrylic prepolymer having a number average molecular weight of 2,000-10,000 and an average of 5-15, hydroxyl groups per chain, said prepolymer comprising the following monomers in percent by weight based on the prepolymer; 40-60% of one or more of butyl methacrylate or butyl acrylate 10-30% lauryl methacrylate 20-40% of one or more of hydroethyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate or hydroxypropyl methacrylate, and 0-30% of one or more of styrene, methyl methacrylate and ethyl methacrylate, (b) 20-35% of at least one of a monomeric diol and an oligomeric diol having a number average molecular weight of 200-2,000, (c) 5-15% of an aliphatic or aromatic diisocyanate, and (d) 1.0-4.0% of a monofunctional alcohol, said reaction being performed by first forming the acrylic prepolymer of (a) then mixing with (a) the diol of (b) and the alcohol of (d), then mixing therewith the diisocyanate of (c) in which 5-50% of the hydroxyl groups on the acrylic prepolymer have reacted with diol or diisocyante, which has been further reacted with enough of an anhydride to give an acid number of at least 10.
