Abstract

A two-part initiator system useful in acrylic adhesive compositions comprising in one-part a stable organoboron amine complex and in the second part an organic acid destabilizer or activator. This initiator is particularly useful in elastomeric acrylic adhesive compositions and provides a fast, room temperature cure with good stability and exhibiting both high tensile strength and high peel strength.

Description

ACRYLIC ADHESIVE COMPOSITION AND
ORGANOBORON INITIATOR SYSTEM
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a novel organoboron complex initiator system and an acrylic a&esive composition containing this initiator. More particularly this invention involves a two-part initiator system co~ lising in one-part a stable organoboron amine complex and in the second part an organic acid destabilizer oractivator. This initiator system is especially useful in elastomeric acrylic adhesive compositions.
Adhesive compositions including acrylic adhesives such as solutions of elastomeric polymers in soluble polymerizable acrylic or methacrylic monomers are well known in the art. These cc,lllposilions which are especially known for their toughening properties generally include a redox system which comprises a catalyst or initiator, an accelerator and an activator to initiate cure, as well as other additives such as a&esion promoters, chelators, cross-linking agents, thickeners and plasticizers.
Two-part acrylic a&esives where an activator is added as a separate second component are widely used and are known for curing speed as well as toughness. The catalyst or initiator typically used in these adhesives are free-radical initiators of the organic peroxy or hydroperoxy type, perester or peracid type.
Many known adhesive systems, such as the epoxies, require a thermal cure to obtain desirable properties, while others that do not, usually require prolonged cure times. In comparison, the adhesive composition with organoboron amine complex initiator of this invention cures at room temperature and reaches high tensile strength in a short period of time. Additionally, the adhesive composition of this invention has shown exceptional stability on ageing while exl~ lg both hightensile strength and high peel strength.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention involves a novel two-part organoboron amine complex ini~ ing system useful in elastomeric acrylic adhesives compositions to provide better and faster room temperature curing thereof.
The organoboron inhi~ting system of this invention is a two-part system 1 5 COI~ illg:
A) a stabilized organoboron amine complex of the forrnula:
R ~ 3 R~ - B ~ N - H (I) where R, R, and R2 are alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms or phenyl, R3 and R4 are hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or )n where R5 and R6are hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, m is 2 to 10 and n is 1 to 6, and B) an organic acid activator having the formula:
R - COOH
where R is hydrogen, alkyl or alkenyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, or aryl having 6 to 10 carbon atoms.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The stabilized organoboron amine complex of the structure (I) which comprises one part of the initiator of this invention is made by combining an organoboron compound with a primary or secondary amine or polyamine containing primary or secondary amines. The organoboron colllpoulld has the formula:

'R2 where R, R, and R2 are alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms or phenyl, perferably alkyl of 1 to 4 carbons. In this formula, the alkyl groups may be straight or branch chained and the phenyl group may contain subsSit~ent~ such as alkyl, alkoxy or halogen.
Illustrative compounds of this type include, e.g., trimethylboron, triethylboron, tri-n-butylboron, tri-sec-butylboron and tri-isobutylboron.
The amine which is used in forming the organoboron amine complex (I) may be any primary or secondary amine or polyamine containing a primary or secondary amine, or ammonia and having the following formula:

N --~4 where R3 and R4 are hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or ~C~2~ ~ ) R6 or ~CH2~n ~ _ where R5 and R6 are hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atorns, m is 2 to 10, and n is 1 to 6. The alkyl groups in this formula may be straight or branch chained.
Preferably, the R groups noted in the amine will be hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, m will be 2 to 6 and more preferably 2 to 3 and n will be 1 to 2. Illustrative compounds of this type include, e.g., n-octylamine, 1 ,6-diaminohexane, diethylamine, dibutylamine, diethylene triamine, dipropylene diamine, ammonia, 1,3-propylenediamine and 1 ,2-propylenediamine.
The stabilized amine complex can be prepared by combining a solution of the organoboron with the amine under an inert atmosphere with cooling as needed.
The activator used as the second part or component of the initiator system will be a compound which will destabilize or liberate the free organoboron compound by removing the amine group and thereby allow it to initiate the polymerization process.

S This activator is an organic acid having the formula:
R-COOH
where R is H, alkyl of alkenyl of 1 to 8 and preferably 1 to 4 carbon atoms, or aryl of 6 to 10, preferably 6 to 8 carbon atoms. It is further understood that the alkyl or alkenyl group of this organic acid may be straight or branch chained and the aryl may contain substituents such as alkyl, alkoxy or halogen. Illustrative examples of compounds of this type include: acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, benzoic acid, and p-methoxybenzoic acid.
Generally the initiator system of this invention will comprise the organoboron amine complex and an effective destabilizing amount of the organic acid activator.
More particularly from about 0.1:1 to 200:1 parts by weight of acid to amine complex and preferably from about 1:1 to 24:1 parts by weight of acid to amine complex may be used.
The organoboron initiator of this invention is particularly useful in acrylic adhesive compositions and especially solutions of elastomeric or rubber polymers in compatible polymerizable acrylic monomers.

The monomers useful herein are seen to be polymerizable monomers having one or more acrylic or substituted acrylic groups as a common, unifying characteristic, and for convenience may be generically termed acrylic monomers.
The elastomer or rubber polymers may be any of the typically available syntheticrubbers that are soluble in the monomer such as those based on polyisoprenes, polybutadienes, polyolefins, polyurethane, polyesters, etc. Examples of elastomeric materials include homopolymers such as polybutadiene, polyisoprene and polyisobutylene; diene type copolymers such as butadiene/styrene copolymer, butadiene/acrylonitrile copolymer, butadiene/methyl methacrylate copolymer and butadiene/alkyl acrylate copolymer; ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymers; ethylene/alkyl acrylate copolymers (1-8 carbons in the alkyl group), rubbery polyalkyl acrylates or copolymers thereof; polyulclhane; chlorinated polyethylenes; and EPDM
(ethylene/propylene/diene terpolymers).
The elastomers of these structures may contain a functional group at one or bothends or within a particular segment or repeating unit of the copolymer. Among the suitable functional groups are vinyl, epoxy, carboxyalkyl, and mercapto groups. Other functional groups may be employed as deemed useful as determined by routine experimentation.
One preferred group of elastomers are the block copolymers. Several such block copolymers are m~mlf~rtllred by Shell Chemical Company under the tradename Kraton*
and by Firestone under the tradename Stereon*. In particular, Stereon 840A, a poly(styrene-b-but~ çn~-b-styrene) block copolymer, has been found to be especially useful in the instant adhesive composition. Other plefelled block copolymers of this type are available under the tradename Solprene* 416, m~mlf~rhlred by Phillips Petroleum Co.
The monomer solution containing the elastomer or rubbery polymer is commonly prepared by dissolving the elastomer in the monomer, which may be in the form of a syrup. In some cases, the monomer solution may be prepared by extracting a rubbery polymer from a latex of the rubbery polymer in water, as used for suspension polymerization, and then dissolving in the monomer.
The amount of the acrylic monomer to be used in this invention may vary somewhat depending on the specific properties desired but generally about 10 to 90% by weight of the composition and preferably about 15 to 80% by weight is used.
Adjustment within these ranges are easily made within the skill of the art. The elastomer is generally present in amounts of about 5 to 80% by weight and preferably about 20 to 60% by weight of the composition.
3 5 *trade-mark The second part of the initiator which contains the acid activator, preferably may also contain a peroxy or hydlopeloxy component having the formula:
R-OOH
where R is hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 10 preferably 4 to 10 carbon atoms or aryl or alkaryl of 6 to 14, preferably 6 to 10 carbon atoms. Illustrative compounds of this type are t-butyl hydroperoxide and cumene hydroperoxide. Typically these hydroperoxy compounds which aid in the initiation of polymerization are used in the initiator system in amounts of about 0.2:1 to 100:1 and preferably from about 0.4:1 to 20:1 parts by weight of hydroperoxy to amine complex.
The organoboron amine complex used in an adhesive composition in accordance with this invention generally comprises from about 0.1 to S % by weight of the total composition and preferably from about 0.5 to 2.5 % and the organic acid activator '~
comprises from about 0.5 to 20%, preferably from about 1 to 12% by weight of the total composition. When a hydroperoxy compound is used in the a&esive composition, it generally co~ ises from about 0.2 to 10% by weight of the total composition and preferably from about 0.5 to 2%.
Other additives useful in elastomeric acrylic adhesives of this type, such as adhesion promoters, chelators, cross-linking agents, inhibitors, activators such as N,N-dimethyltoluidine as well as thickeners, plasticizers and diluents may also be used in the adhesive compositions of this invention.
The organoboron initiator system as described above comprises a two component system. When used in the acrylic rubber compositions of this invention generally the two parts are mixed in equal quantities of the monomer-polymer solution, but this may vary at the discretion of the user. That is, the stabilized organoboron compound is added to a solution of the elastomer or rubber polymer dissolved in the polymerizable acrylic monomer and the organo acid activator and optional hydroperoxy compound are added as a second part which also may be in a solution of the rubber polymer in acrylic monomer.
Adhesive compositions of this invention are particularly useful in structural and semi-structural applications such as speaker magnets, metal-metal bonding (automotive) glass-metal bonding, glass-glass bonding, circuit board component bonding, selected CA 0206l02l l998-06-l9 plastic to metal, glass, wood, etc. and electric motor m~nPt~.
